Yes, by the argument just provided :).

Oh alright, but it's not really as interesting as all that. False implications in the logical context are commonly referred to as logical fallacies. Wikipedia has a (non-exhaustive) list of those. One of the more famous false implications is interesting in that it maps between types of implication.

A is correlated with B implies that A implies (causal) B or B implies (causal) A (note that this is false, with a plethora of different types of counter example). This is probably the most commonly exploited false implication by hucksters, and, perhaps more importantly, is a very common source of false beliefs with no malicious intent at all.

It is easy to leverage this false belief into new false beliefs with true facts. If I want to sell coffee for example, I must convince someone of the buying coffee implies (causal) utility fact. All I must convince them of is that coffee is correlated with a thing that implies (causal) utility. Say for instance, that people with heart conditions have those conditions exacerbated negatively by taking coffee or drinking stimulants, and therefore don't. It follows then that drinking coffee is probably correlated with much better heart health. I phrase my findings as "People who drink coffee tend to have much better cardiac calcium scores", and just watch as people draw the incorrect conclusion about the utility of coffee from this fact, plus their fallacy (plus the additional assumption that better cardiac calcium scores probably don't cause coffee consumption).

I should note that It could very well be that coffee does have utility to you. So as a fact it might still be "true". So it turns out that what really ends up mattering, is not the facts, but the chains of implications that lead you to them.
99% of the phone calls I get from unknown numbers are some combination of scam/robo/or just immediate hang up. The only exceptions tend to be businesses responding to my initial contact (eg, trying to get a plumber out to my house), in which case I will answer unknown numbers for a day or two until we connect. Otherwise nope.

This is a US mobile number that I've ported from carrier to carrier since the mid-00s. Haven't been particularly careful about where I use the number, which is probably how it got this bad.
Look into the intersection of Tax and Cryptocurrency, if you haven't already. There's a lot of stuff to do in there, I would imagine.
This sounds fascinating! In HPC environments how do the images communicate -- I'm just assuming there's some form of distributed computing going on there?
So the rational decision is, if you are attacked then you should surrender immediately?
Buses and subways cannot operate door to door. That is a fundamental service restriction which will always create a need for personal transit. People with accessibility needs, safety concerns or timing restrictions create a legitimate and important market for door-to-door personal transportation.

Buses are also inherently less efficient outside of peak operating hours. Why should we operate a fleet of million-dollar, high energy consumption buses looping practically empty late at night? A fleet of cars would far better suit the transportation demands for off-peak small scale transport. Cars as a service are also easy for a local government to subsidize so that lower income riders can access the benefits.
Definitely, and that's exactly why I claim this is not even close to FSD, and why I absolutely do not want this in my car.

If I have to be on the wheel and ready to react at any point in time, then I'd rather be the one driving and that's it.

I think regular "old" adaptive cruise control and lane assist are vastly superior to this. I am on the wheel and in charge for 99.9% of the time, as I should be regardless of FSD, and the technology saves me in the 0.1% when I am not.

FSD will never be FSD without a complete redesign of infrastructure, which will not happen in our lifetime.

"Today it's unclear what strategy will win"

Thank you for saying the honest, obvious answer. I am tired of people claiming to know what the implementation details of a technology that does not exist. As a nobody retail investor, I have long positions on autonomy (Tesla, Nvidia, GM/cruise, Google), not specific takes on it.

I'm fact, I think the radar/vision debate is not going to matter long term, as there can be multiple winners and the tech will likely converge.

Can someone explain whether there is a principled reason to not use all the sensors available and choose just cameras?
Do you have a bunch of unused cables tangled in a box? Hanging in a closet? STREWN ACROSS THE GUEST BED?

Do you find yourself purchasing a new tool or toy only to discover you need yet another USB cable to power it or one with a proper transfer speed for your setup? Or did your old tool or toy break leaving you with some bizarre proprietary(?) cable that you'll probably never have use for again?

Well I want to make a website where people can:
1) Inventory
2) Share
3) Identify
all their unused cables. Why keep buying new cables and contributing to waste? Why keep storing a bunch of cables we don't use instead of giving them to people who can put them to use? And what the hell is this connector I founded tangled up with my XLR and DVI-D cable?

If someone wants to collab I think I've already got a killer name. Just haven't decided a TLD.
My stack preference would be a backend using Haskell, Erlang, Elixir or Clojure. Frontend would NOT be an SPA, but I'm imagining some custom components (like a connector identifier and maybe a tabular inventory view) that I would lean towards using Elm for.

Weirdly, X11 fractional scaling essentially does the same thing as Apple and works reasonably well, but Wayland's fractional scaling doesn't and looks like garbage as a result.
I wonder about that. The top maintenance issue that comes to my mind is sufficient tread on tires. Bald tires will still work great on dry streets but as soon as it starts raining, you start skidding. I honestly don’t know if software could intervene quickly and reliably enough there.
I believe he was complaining about the lack of context you provided. The dropping of the typical (and false) apartheid accusation without providing the response.
Or alternatively, process the data anyway, make tens of billions of dollars from it, and pay a 2 billion dollar fine if the regulators find out.

The fine is just another cost of doing business ;)
Tech companies, especially software-heavy tech companies, know the value of good marketing on HN.
Is it asking to get it for free, or is it regulating how you can monetize it? I don't think the argument is that Google maps has to be free, it's that they can't make you pay for it with your personal data.

Unfortunately you are up against trillion dollar corporations who think the world is their little model, active misinformation from them, blatant bribery of elected officials leading to an engineered lack of government oversight, a completely clueless population, and an exponentially increasing technical capability of surveillance.

Oh, are you talking about tracking the money after it's been loaned out? Like for a given dollar we can see that it was loaned to Company X, then paid to an employee, then spent on rent, then spent at a restaurant, etc. If that's what you mean then I agree it would be useful for studying the impacts of stimulus policies, although I think there are a lot of other privacy impacts we'd need to consider.
With services you get a lot of lock-in/exclusives. Two examples are Discord and Netflix. I wouldn't say you have much of a choice if you want to join a popular place to chat or if you want to watch Stranger Things. The user experience doesn't matter so much if there's no other way to do something. This is what I think the person you were replying to means.

On that note, Google Sheets became popular because you can use it in your browser and because of Google Drive which is what locks you in. Sheets is much more open than my examples.
My access points are inaccessible to the public. You would have to trespass deep into my property.
The preferred outcome of the company is making a successful hire, so they will go high enough to make sure they get a great candidate, or if they can't afford that, will go to their max budget. And if they don't then you don't want to work there anyway.

There is no situation where you will say a high number and they will move up to meet you if that number was greater than their max budget to begin with.

Consent is insufficient. Exclusively storing data on servers physically located in the EU is insufficient. As soon as a business has dealings with a US-based company or an EU-based company owned by a US-based company that potentially might have access to user data that business technically is in violation of GDPR.

As of now, as a business you essentially have three alternatives:

1. Run the entire infrastructure you need yourself or have it run by EU-based companies guaranteed to have no relations with US-based entities whatsoever (Good luck with finding those ...). This, for example, includes payment systems and banking infrastructure, because guess where many EU-based banks host their infrastructure? That's right, AWS.

2. Go out of business.

3. Ignore this aspect of GDPR for now, document everything, continue to do your own due diligence, and hope for the best.

Probably correct. 24/88.2 is probably the perfect compromise between too much and too little.

Then there is the issue of the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem living up to its FULL POTENTIAL.

"It establishes a sufficient condition for a sample rate that permits a discrete sequence of samples to capture all the information from a continuous-time signal of finite bandwidth. Strictly speaking, the theorem only applies to a class of mathematical functions having a Fourier transform that is zero outside of a finite region of frequencies. Intuitively we expect that when one reduces a continuous function to a discrete sequence and interpolates back to a continuous function, the fidelity of the result depends on the density of the original samples. The sampling theorem introduces the concept of a sample rate that is sufficient for perfect fidelity for the class of functions that are band-limited to a given bandwidth, such that no actual information is lost in the sampling " (1)

Did you get the significance of that? "Such that no actual information is lost in the sampling"

If a proper filter is used, and infinite computing power is used, the analogue waveform can be PERFECTLY recreated.

This simply doesn't happen, and designers don't even try.

Hard to believe, right? The issue is that for full information retrieval, a filter of infinite tap length is needed. Think infinite ripples or ringing in both directions of the sample point. And that requires computing power getting close to infinite.

Which brings me to a crazy dude exploiting this theory to its fullest, Rob Watts, designer of Chord Qutest and M-scaler.

"What’s the significance of the ultra-long tap-length digital filter and of the WTA algorithms? In seminars given around the world, Watts has suggested that few designers recognize the full implications of digital audio sampling theory, which according to Watts points to an astonishing conclusion. Specifically, Watts contends that garden-variety 44.1kHz digital audio files could, if processed through a digital filter of near infinite tap length, yield analog waveforms every bit as accurate and complete as those produced from higher-res audio files, albeit with slightly higher noise floors. Stop a moment and let that claim sink in. Watts is saying, in essence, that a DAC with a properly designed filter system can deliver ultra-high-res sonic results from conventional CD-quality files. " (2)

All design choices are a trade off. Size Vs processing power to "unpack" and recreate data points between samples.

Which brings me to my main point, it may be unnecessary to have a sample rate higher than 44100x per second, but it is practical to do so. By doubling the sample rate and storage requirements, it takes far less computational power to play the song as it would to mathematically calculate that extra sample between each sample.

This is really frustrating, if not surprising. Jest generally just works out of the box for me with Typescript (and ts-jest), including coverage, whereas the Mocha ecosystem tends to involve wrangling multiple packages with varying levels of Typescript compatibility. Jest has generally been slower to run, though, and I've noticed various problems over the years that aren't getting solved due to the lack of maintenance.
The same "no one" that was unable to predict inflation? Come on. Maybe you just listen to the wrong sources.
That's why I said, unless you were already a senior engineer (L5), which isn't really a viable 3 year plan for most people.

You can live cheaper than 3.5k, sure, but that's a fairly typical amount for a single person living near FAANG office locations, if you consider rent/utilities/food/transportation/clothes/equipment expenses/entertainment.

Btw, 400k is 225k in take home, minus aforementioned living expenses is 183k. Even if you were able to get to L6 within 2 years, that's 600k the last year, 320k take home, 278k minus living expenses.

183+183+278 = 644k so you would basically need to be lucky and have 26% stock appreciation every year, which is a lot higher than the norm.
I believe those arguments are simply justifications for the fact that most people won't be able to afford Teslas with Lidars

Thanks for the response dang. Someone below has brought to my attention that my comment doesn’t sit within within the guidelines - might it be best for me to edit it with something relevant to the article?

Out of curiosity, and regardless of this case, how do you deal with artificial manipulation of sentiment on HN?

Nudging the views of one of the most active developer communities in the world has value if you were an adversary. Do you see signs of this?

And if the campaign is sustained over a long period, with all comments/threads being within the guidelines, but heavily biased, how does one defend against it?

It would be naive to assume Reddit is the only platform that manipulates user sentiment. And despite the average user here being more capable of critical thinking, we are all still fallible. Can you speak to any of this?
Surely autopilot is an easier problem to solve compared to self-driving cars? Air traffic is controlled, road traffic is chaotic. Aerial vehicles move through what's essentially empty space with pretty much no obstacles, cars must navigate imperfect always changing urban mazes full of people whose actions are unpredictable.

Thanks! I sent an email. It would also be great if there was a button to change the orientation of the diagram from left-right to top-bottom.
On the other hand, once a sufficient percentage of cars on the road are autonomous, couldn’t they use cooperative navigation algorithms to improve throughput a whole lot?

There are so many inefficiencies with human drivers—chaotic merging, unnecessary lane changes, blocking of passing lanes, and so on. I could imagine that optimizing all those away would make a huge difference overall.

You could also probably increase speed limits. And fewer accidents should cause a significant reduction in traffic jams.
To be honest, even with a cut and pasted initial reply, this sounds like more effort than it's worth. I don't want to have to respond to the recruiter's response. My mental energy is valuable. I don't need to spend it on job opportunities I'm not interested in.
Supposedly it's possible to get the idle power draw down to around 2.5W, but it requires some very up-to-date kernel features.
This is more of a personal thing. I am creating better maps for DnD (Dungeons and Dragons). My goal is a google maps so that DMs and players will always have a map no matter where they go.

That wouldn't be a false impression, this article is indeed about how to use miekg/dns to make a resolver. Your comments on the other title already apply to the current title as is, it's one of things people hate about these titles but at least the cut title avoids the line count/"nothing is from scratch" debates.

Increasingly more accurate titles always accepted of course though but one thing for sure is the class of "<x> in <y lines>" are demonstrably a continuous problem to the point they are talked about instead of the articles they represent, they are not just minor wording nits one could come up with after staring at a title long enough.

Edit: I really like the title the article itself changed to "A toy DNS resolver".
