Not a huge regulations-by-default person but I agree strongly with this. The other issue is accountability laundering. If a human kills someone they're criminally responsible. If a company's software does it then they'll shift blame onto the human passenger or deflect into a small fine, at the worst. If I can't trust the incentives then I can't trust the tech.
For me I mainly use Zigbee and Zwave Devices not WiFi Devices.

I am sadden that wifi seems to be taking over and ZigBee and Zwave are starting to lose favor.
Intro to solving Differential Equations in Julia (2hrs)
The article provides the correct logic: Telemetry was the first to use that combination of new code but there's no reason to believe that nothing else would ever have used the stack they've been transitioning towards. Had this bug not been found in Telemetry it would have shown up somewhere else, possibly harder to diagnose.
Does anyone have some experience to share with integrating home assistant with Homematic devices? I'm stuck with those for controlling my heating but really dislike the interface.
Related situation, but not quite the same: I know someone who wrote off their car on the A14 near Cambridge (UK) because they weren’t paying attention in stop-start traffic and rear-ended the one in front.

Ironically, she hates Elon Musk and everything he does, so memes about how self driving cars are a terrible idea.
It also says short covering was only small portion of overall buy volume, so while there might have been a short-squeeze that might not explain the full price dynamic (p27 and also figure 6).
Belgium data protection agency finds ad networks breach GDPR
Both. Note that a huge amount of groundbreaking code had been written in K&R C before someone decided that it was "not good enough."
Somehow I missed that for over 40 years.
The events of the last 20 years with accompanying media coverage have really made me question a lot of the "history" I was taught and accepted as fact.
There's no quality content for "chicken," in fact I'd say that local chicken restaurants and funny animal news are the best content for "chicken." That's why I don't want every search to favor new material and drop old material. The problem that I have with Google is that they know that most searches will be simple and timely [edit: and badly phrased and nonspecific], and they've just ignored everything else.
The Rust Toolchain Installer
How much convenience does this bring? Is it life-changing, or is it more like nice to have?
Tesla is supposed to mimic human driving so its cars are predictable to other human drivers. What's the point of driving safely if it gets you in an accident?

> Speeders that endanger lives of everyone not currently inside a car, now embedded in an efficient algorithm

Maybe pedestrians should be voting to improve public transportation instead of trying to walk in roads clearly not meant for pedestrians. Has nobody heard of trains or buses? How is it a solution to make every car go 25 mph just in case some random person decides to jaywalk?
That's a good one, but my all-time favorite is this one: Hillary Clinton used a hammer to smash her mobile phone during an FBI investigation.

Mixture: It was not just one phone, but many, and it was one of her aides, not Hillary herself, who did the smashing.

It's not debunked at all. You have to remember that this is the same corruption level that had the 'buy' command (but not 'sell') turned off just for that stock for a day on RH -- and no one went to jail.

There is growing pressure as more and more investors DRS their shares to push back, so we'll see more articles like the one above, convincing us that the short squeeze is over, trying to convince people to sell. Because once 100% of shares are registered, it's all over.
It's the same app. I don't get why you're replying to every thread trying to somehow argue that sharing a thread for all network code is a bad thing and telemetry needs to be a special snowflake that gets a different thread. The networking code had an infinite loop bug. It was triggered by telemetry, but it could've been anything. Telemetry getting its own network thread wouldn't have magically made it impossible for it to cause problems. Bugs happen, and sometimes make things interact in weird ways.
Why would I stop if I can clearly see there is no one coming from the other directions? I drive a stick shift too so it helps to be able to keep some non-zero momentum. This is completely disconnected from the stereotypical bad driver barreling through the intersection completely unaware there is a stop sign at all.

It's a different story on 4-way stop intersections. You look at who is where, which order they stopped in, and go when it's your turn.

The real bottom line ultimately is, are the average accident rates up or not?
Please don’t insult CFML by comparing it to something that puts the user at risk and crashes every five minutes ;)
I had several thousand dollars in GCP credits but eventually moved back to AWS.

Overall I prefer the philosophy of AWS regions vs global infra. So many GCP outages were global. Also AWS seems very keen on customer feedback (if you are big enough at least).
Of course. Although most rear-ending I've seen is on highways when drivers (that shouldn't be on the road) fail to leave adequate distance in front of them.
Anyone who advocates that not stopping a car at stop signs is a "norm" should be launched directly into the sun. This is why traffic deaths in the U.S. are 40k/year and increasing at 15% per year.
I'm not saying this was actually a good design, for obvious reasons, but one decent reason to do it this way is so things like proxy settings are shared.
Type variables are sometimes called generics and a part of the type language, so JavaScript doesn’t have them. Typescript, but also Rust, Haskell, Java, the ML-family have them.

Type variables abstract over types and are analogous to function parameters at the values level. Think the ‘T’ in ‘List<T>’.
How is this a response to the message you're replying to? You seem not to have understood it at all.
I've too have been working with WordPress a long time. I built Quartz (qz.com) and The New Yorker (newyokrer.com) and other sites on WP.

However so much of what this author says resonates more than I care to admit. I have a good relationship with WP but I worry about the future.
Interesting. Guess this story is more sensationalism from the media
I hate to tell you but its 2022.
The people still holding AMC are even more deluded given that AMC has already bought back stock multiple times, making plenty of money on the suckers still hanging on.
The screenshot in GG(G?)P that they called an anti-vax protest was of the truckers in Canada; that's an anti-mandate protest, not an anti-vax one.

> I don't rely on raspberry pi for anything that needs to run 24x7 because of sd card wear and the hassle of downtime and replacing/reflashing/reconfiguring a new card causes.

One can always use an SSD. They work great.
I often watch RT here in the UK. Sure, sometimes it sounds like they are broadcasting the "official line" but they also provide a welcome different point of view/opinion. It seems to depend on the specific program.

Overall, banning them is a little hypocritical.

But Bezos needs no business card… likewise, people aren't going to ignore Warren Buffet just because he spends modestly. It makes sense to give your friend the benefit of the doubt, but why on earth would you extend that to Jeff Bezos on the matter of buying mega-yachts?
Don't other manufacturers limit their level 2 systems to mapped and known-good highways? And, for example, my Ford will turn off blue cruise and lanekeeping if it detects it can not handle the environment.
> the practical result of GDPR is that it made my browsing experience worse

Actually it's the website operators that did that. The GDPR doesn't mandate all these cookie popups.

GDPR declared war on trackers. The popups is the trackers fighting back. We are civilians caught in a warzone. I for one hope that GDPR wins; but there's a way to go yet.
I've talked to Yannick quite a lot in the past as my lab develops Why3 and SPARK uses my translation for their new support for pointers (access types).

Additionally, my advisor collaborates with them on counterexample generation, especially with managing to get readable counterexamples out from the SMT.
We've toyed a little with invariant generation but its very tricky to get something actually usable.
Additionally, I have the personal (soft) requirement that the generated invariant should be injected into the source code and not purely internal / hidden.
It’s hard to measure, I live in France and probably work 25 hours a week (out of the regular 35 hours we are supposed to do)

But then I don’t count the many hours reading documentation, practicing and exploring at home and most of the time it’s geared toward « what I can do to improve X at work »

Also my mind is rarely off, there is always part of my brain focused on some challenges we are facing at work.

I don’t know how others do it, but I can’t produce code 7h a day just sitting on my chair
Ah yes, the amazing hn cynicism - it's not that the problem is really hard, and there is a really complex system here with all sorts of incentives, variables, and issues on all sides.
Instead, everything is easy, and the reason the "right" thing (as defined by the poster) doesn't happen can be reduced to some single cartoon-villain level bullet point like "not in business interest".

Small problem: There are plenty of folks, foundations, companies who are not resource limited in attacking something like this, yet it still doesn't happen.
So maybe it's not as simple as you think?
I look forward to the new name for the system. 'Totally Self Driving now can drive over 14% of the time, a 4% improvement from Full Self Driving. Look out soon for the next release, Completely Self Driving.'
Thank you for at least being honest about your motivations. I hope you never hit someone.
The smallest VPSes that i've found are the Scaleway Stardust instances, which have 10 GB of storage: https://www.scaleway.com/en/stardust-instances/

I don't think that it's very economical to provide smaller instances than that for most cloud hosts out there.
Why is the Boston driver thing such a meme? The NHTSA Region 1, which is New England, has the fewest traffic fatalities per capita and per vehicle-mile. Florida, Texas, and California are twice as bad.
Meanwhile there are some long-lasting situations like the Israel-Palestine conflict/crisis, yet there's clear, ongoing gaslighting occurring - in part due to political ties and economic relationships that bond, align interests; and societies and culture is held hostage and suppressed from responding if it's counter the mainstream narrative, mastering suppression, propaganda, and influence techniques.

A horrible article that rationalizes the collectivism that is also prevalent in software these days:

10% of productive people create 90% of everything. The 90% unproductive people engage in ideology, politics, defamation and rationalize why the output is actually theirs. They are the public face of the stolen economic or intellectual output.

As a productive person, just say "no"!
This pretty much matches my experiences too. When it does stuff right it’s great. But then it goes and tries to swerve into a fast approaching car, change lanes in an intersection, decide last minute the turn lane you’re in in actually a straight through lane, checks that the brakes work on a wide open road, etc

I’m sure some people are more comfortable letting the car do these things but I feel it’s just a matter of time until one of them gets in an accident. Of course Tesla would have an out saying the person should have been paying attention, it’s still beta and so on.

I just don’t feel confident the current sensor suite can allow for level 4.
Testing wouldn't have revealed anything because this didn't break with Firefox outright, it only broke when Firefox telemetry used it due to a complex series of circumstances.
You know what is really ironic? If this person was in a Tesla or similar car with obstacle detection the car would have never let them rear end the one in front in stop-and-go traffic.
Palestinians literally elected Hamas in a democratic election. So actions by Hamas apparently represent the will of the people. That's hardly comparable to China and North Korea, which are authoritarian dictatorships where the governments were never elected.
DNT compliance is voluntary. I don't think Schrems would have a legal leg to stand on.
The irony of this is there is probably more Unix on your wrist than Linux on the desktop.
> increased employment at small businesses by only 2%

> implying a cost of $377,000 per job saved

The second doesn't follow from the first at all?

The fact that employment increased doesn't tell you anything about how many jobs were not lost, right?
Postman used to be a go-to tool for testing APIs, now I use anything else (curl, httpie, etc) but postman.
Too much is some time too less.
But in academia we need to know the source of the idea in order to research the roots of an idea. I look at citations like hyperlinks of academia so using ideas without citation doesn't sit well with me. And the more reproducible/legitimate a paper is the more citations it usually has, that is an important metric for judging the quality of any research paper.
> It is very weird to me that they can lack the self awareness of being in a cult while calling other things cults.

It isn't weird at all. It's probably one of the hallmark symptoms of being in a cult. Everyone in your outgroup are the ones who are misguided, being misled by lies, etc.
The C API is usually syntactically valid C++, so I don’t think of it that way. It’s just an API. Implementation is still in just two languages.
Just crank the FoV slider up to maximum.
Companies don't have to be shady, scummy, scammy, and customer-hostile to make money. They may make more money in the short term if they are, but in the long term people will avoid that company and it'll lose money.

There certainly are plenty of Postman alternatives out there, one that I've used before is Milkman: https://github.com/warmuuh/milkman

I tried writing a sudoku solver using what I figured were standard algorithmic approaches. It was a mess and didn't really work.

Then I wrote one with SAT. I think it was 60 LOC, super easy to understand, and ran in about 0.4 sec.
If single payer is funded through a payroll tax, it should be a net savings for those of us who do choose not to live dangerously.

There’s a lot of pressure to fix the system, and there has been for decades. It’s blunted by politicians responsive to corporations and not to individuals (other than right-wing extremists, who they fear).
In summary, 60 GHz is the CARRIER frequency (the central frequency) around which a modulated signal is centred or otherwise aligned. The modulated signal BANDWIDTH (channel width) is where the signal information is encoded and is going to be measured in Mega-Hertz (MHz).

E.g. for 802.11a/n/c the CARRIER is in the 5.x GHz band but the modulated signal BANDWIDTH will be one of 20, 40, 80, 160 MHz around a central frequency [0]. The 'base' 20MHz bandwidth at best performance (signal to noise ratio) will be able to modulate (encode) at a raw 54Mbits/second.

Intel publish [1] an easy-to-read set of tables that show the relationships between standards, frequencies, bandwidths, MIMO, and modulation schemes.

[0] simplified - actually there is a (frequency-hopping or direct sequence) spread-spectrum method

It was a bug. It can't block network communication normally. It's not like telemetry serializes with normal user traffic. It was just a stupid infinite loop that broke what otherwise would've certainly been nonblocking multiplexing of requests.
Cookies are already pretty much irrelevant. IP address, user agents and browser fingerprinting is where it's at.
Everyone wants to hate on Elon but he’s making incredible progress in machine learning. Tesla and OpenAI have done more for the field than almost anyone in the last decade, except maybe Google.
What does "conspiracy" mean to you, exactly? If the biomedical research community covered up an idea they thought might be true in order to support a political strategy, I'd consider that almost the canonical example of a conspiracy. Maybe it was a good political strategy, maybe it was serving an important goal - the bottom line would still be that you can't trust what they say because they might have secretly decided that it's best to deceive you.
>Please reconsider.

Isn't the point of Google's current valuation that they are stealing as much data as they can to feed their nascent AI in the hopes of spawning the best masses manipulator? Why would they reconsider their overarching business model?
You're in the minority.

> Among the public overall, 63% of U.S. adults say the government has the responsibility to provide health care coverage for all, up slightly from 59% last year. Roughly a third (37%) say this is not the responsibility of the federal government, according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted July 27 to Aug. 2 among 11,001 adults. [1]

If you read the post from Pew, you'll find that Dems overwhelming support this policy, while it is Republicans who do not, Republicans who are overwhelming older [2]. So, over time, there will be more support for this policy as the roughly 1.8 million voters per year over the age of 55 age out of voting cohorts.

No doubt the number is non-zero in a subreddit that gets 20-30K comments a day.

Still, the people complaining make it seem like the sub today looks the same as it did on January 28th, 2021.

I took a very cursory look at the front page just now and don't see a single post advocating a short squeeze. Maybe there's one or two mentions within the threads, but it's far from everywhere.

My (limited) understanding is that the problem you’re raising is exactly why quantum computers are difficult.

I think it’s something like: yes, everything is “seen” by the rest of the universe, but “seeing” is done with discreet did-or-didnt happen events (mostly photons) which can be suppressed.
GDPR enforcement is completely arbitrary (in both senses of the word). People might cheer for the downfall of the tech giants but it's really just a way for the EU to control US companies, extending their power beyond their jurisdiction.
Okay, but what if we sold their loses as an NFT. Then they can own their losses and make money on the NFT at the same time! No where to go but up!

(this is a joke)
Now I can understand what you are saying. There is definitely something in your point. But it's more complex than that.

See, the Palestinian leadership needs to have an enemy too. And you say of the far-right in Israel they are "expansionist and racist", well Hamas/Fatah are arguably worse.

And it's not like there would be no enemies and no need for a powerful military once Gaza is conquered and Hamas neutered (Iran? Hezbollah?).

There are powerful interests in the Israeli side wanting to keep Hamas a menace, but there are also big interests on the Palestinian side too to keep the war going.

I’ve had good luck running pi’s for years between (power fail) reboots.

One thing though - I don’t think any of my pi’s run x windows, I think they’re all console mode. I get the feeling that they do fewer writes in general this way, but I don’t really know. Anecdotally, I had a pi that ran x that I was experimenting with, and after a couple of months found it locked up/dead to the network. A reboot brought it back fine, but I unplugged it a few days after that and haven’t been using it.
