It's curious as to why we don't treat western govt / media sources as "propaganda" but everything Russian is. I fully agree with the label, but its not being applied to the west. How long were western media just regurgitating that "biolabs" was "Russian disinformation" and writing "fact checks" which just parrot the official government narrative until they realized the Russians were going to capture them then they just admit it in an open hearing? I don't believe a word of what either side says. The moral superiority gap has shrunk to next to nothing.
If the "operator entered the wrong coordinates" hypothesis is correct, the distance between the base and where the drone ended up might have been much greater than the distance between the base and the intended target, which could mean the drone didn't have enough battery and/or fuel to get back.

This isn't about power users. This will affect anyone who finds themselves in a country with a different language. Migrants, expats, refugees, people on vacation, people living in a country with multiple official languages; there are a lot of people for whom Google's way of handling this will give bad results. And it gives bad results in a way the user can't fix. If Google listened to the language settings, the user would have some control over it.
Yeah, it's practically copypasta: a laundry list of made up situations from the fear profile of a particular group.

However, in the past couple of weeks we've seen the seizure or devaluation of hundreds of billions of dollars of Russian assets as the result of the war, and a bunch of people have been put on sanctions lists with basically zero legal review or recourse. I wonder how things would have developed if Russia had a CBDC: what would happen to Western holders of it?

(Note that the oligarchs aren't holding much of their fortune in actual physical folding money cash, that's too inconvenient once you get above the amount that fits in a safe. They've been keeping it in property, businesses, banks, bought politicians, and football clubs)
Am in Belgium. Google keeps serving me pages in Dutch. I don’t speak Dutch nor do the majority of people in my city / area. I speak French. And I don’t want results in French, I want results in English.

If we think we have class antagonism and rural vs. urban antagonism now, wait until self-driving trucks decimate trucking as an industry. It's one of the largest well-paying employers of "blue collar" people. We are still a ways off but it's definitely coming.

We have to do something about inequality or we will have totalitarianism. It will either be in the form of a totalitarian fascist or communist revolution, or a totalitarian police state to prevent such a revolution.

I wonder if something makes the wheel turn which actually turns the car. Or is the wheel just a visual indicator.
Charging for an app that blocks monetization is pretty rich.
Could be an absurd idea, but could require a licensed driver with experience taking over the wheel instead to steer the car with human logic, instead of trusting the failing AI to park it

Oh wait..
It’s unlikely autonomous cars will be privately owned.

Am I right to assume what Meta would adhere to the same principles in any other similar case? Eg (countries and nationalities are work of fiction and are the products of the author's imagination):

$string = 'Two weeks into $country1's war in $country2, a Meta spokesperson said on Thursday the company had temporarily eased its rules for political speech, allowing posts such as "death to the $nationality invaders," although it would not allow calls for violence against $nationality civilians'
$country1 = 'Russia', 'US, 'Israel', 'UAE'
$country2 = 'Ukraine', 'Iraq', 'Palestine', 'Yemen'
$nationality = 'Russian', 'American', 'Israeli', 'Saudi'

foreach ($i in 0..3) {...}

In my own personal opinion a company what decides what some people, chosen by some arbitrary attributes, are more equal than others can never claim to have a better moral principles than some $country Ministry of Truth.
Because I'm not a citizen of Lebanon, Jordan or Egypt. As an Israeli citizen I share the responsibility and am obliged to react to any colonial era exercise the government is trying to pull off.

Hi! Thank you so much, super appreciate the "congrats", woo! _enqueue rockets_

You are super right, there is 100% a lot of investment education out there. For my generation, no one I know (including myself) is going to go through static content/white pages with black text and just read that. Further when it's not contextual/inlined with the real financials it's hard to make that connection/memory commit.

Building on that, an insight we had here is that education needs to be provided when you need it. And most investors have no idea when it's a good time to learn a p/e ratio for example.

One thing we did in Stock Unlock, was put inlined education, everywhere, defining every term.

Given your experience in this space it would be an honor (seriously) to get your honest thoughts about how we are doing it. Daniel Pronk has written 200+ pages of custom education content which is embedded through 100s of interactable widgets throughout the site.

I hope you have a great day, the markets are pretty turbulent out there!
You should read Blood Meridian.
The US department of transportation values a human life at around $10M. So they're willing to spend that amount to statistically save one person.

You do need a number though. People don't like to think about it but you can't value a life at infinity.
I'm guessing because fully automated vehicles don't exist (yet).
No Coca-Cola and McDonalds either.
> the classroom is no place for such divisive nonsense

I should have thought that the classroom would be an eminently suitable place for discussion of divisive matters of all sorts—better than learning to discuss this sort of thing on Twitter or Facebook. Of course, at least in Britain, our freedom of speech warriors tend to be as censorious as the ‘woke’ lot they deride (see e.g. this online harms business and Prevent). The real problem is that there is no intellectual ambition in the educational policy of mainstream leftists and rightists in the West. Cummings was close, but then brought in that awful eugenicist, which has ruined any chance of getting more mathematicians into government or doing anything to increase the intellectual level of education in this country, I fear. Gove was better than most but spends most of his time fighting crises created by other ministers, and Cummings was largely his fault.
My son once grabbed a huge crate of ditched VHS on the sidewalk, filled with 80s action movies (complete Stallone, VanDamme, Schwartzenegger etc). He made a lot of 80s-movies-watching with his friends from these VHS. They loved the experience of watching 80s movies on 80s technology apparently :)
I’m honestly hyped for a new golden age of movies and games where Russians are the bad guys. I feel like Russian bad guys always had more character and really made you want to see the hero outmaneuver them. Arabs just didn’t do it for me the last two decades.
The reason is straight forward. They have data that shows most people outside the US have the setting wrong. For the .com (American!) domain the default is English. For each country specific site the default is the primary local language. You can change the default via a cookie.
As the others have said, the electorate wants power used against fellow members of the electorate.
I guess I am some version of centrist that looks at the left, right, communist, capitalist, anarchist, totalitarian, etc and just sees overzealous people desperately trying to apply their overfit model of human society. For most people who have "taken a side" they have subconsciously done so to escape the intractability of a universal philosophy for human prosperity. They've bowed before the altar of dogma and said their prayers.
> What's going to be the rate of 'acceptable loss'?

You might think anything less than the current incident rate. But that’s looking at it from a group perspective. From an individual perspective, I’ve never been in an accident in ~25 years of driving, so my requirements might be higher than others to feel like autonomous control is safer.

Firefox held off on AVIF for a few releases to get their image color spaces right. I'm usually blind when it comes to things like this (is this random image resized gamma correct? hell if I know), but even I could tell that AVIFs didn't look right before they fixed it. Those fixes were in well before FF 96, so there might be something else at play.

Interestingly upward mobility in Russia (I moved out in 2008 but visited almost every year since, I guess not anymore) may be easier in a certain way, because education is free if you can pass exams, or otherwise cheap. Now on one hand, that means that most people don't value it, so most of my CS-major fellow students had no notion of CS, coding, or really much of anything IT-related by the end of their education... and many people I know have degrees in some random X that they got "because everyone does it" but they don't do X and never intend to (X can be marketing, or it can be biology, or whatever). On the other hand almost anyone who actually wants it can get decent education for ~free.

Then you get a job (in IT, often while still in college) and here's upward mobility :) There are obviously less jobs on every level of "upwards" compared to the USA, but there are still plenty. Many people also (used to?) freelance for Western customers. Until recently, if you don't engage in politics life was pretty good. One aspect of being upper middle class in Russia is that you are surrounded by cheap labor, so everything - healthcare, home improvement, nannies, etc. - is dirt cheap. E.g. you could have a reliable full-time live-in caretaker for an elderly person for like $500-600/month (before the recent ruble collapse) in Moscow; even cheaper in other cities I suspect.

Another peculiar aspect with Russia is that it's very centralized, so it really helps to move (imagine Silicon Valley -> Seattle/Austin/... -> the rest - type centralization, but with an even steeper salary gradient and for nearly ALL jobs, not just IT). Ideally you want to be in Moscow; some other major cities (Saint Petersburg, Novosibirsk) are also not so bad but people still move to Moscow if they can.
The first sentence of this article has an interesting reading:

"U.S. regulators on Thursday issued final rules eliminating the need for automated vehicle manufacturers to equip fully autonomous vehicles with manual driving controls to meet crash standards."

It does sound like "U.S. regulators are removing regulations.", which does look like they are acting against themselves..
Driving is already a Russian roulette right? If autonomous vehicles are safer than human drivers as advertised the barrel would just have more capacity.

Formulating a question that doesn't waste your time requires me to shift perspective to figure out what information you need. As a result, half the time formulating the question leads me to discovering the answer. I'd consider that time well spent regardless of the answers I get.
Great news! Adblock Plus has been compromised for quite some time. This means the pressure will definitely increase on uBlock Origin but I hope they stay strong.
And then they could optimize the model for efficiency by picking up multiple people that share similar routes. It could even become a public service!

Fyne seems to be the closest thing to cross-platform GUI that Go has.

Fyne-cross is a really nice tool that can cross-compile Fyne applications for most popular systems (including android).

The libGL1 dependency under Linux is a fair tradeoff for wide compatibility - the drivers don't have stable ABI so dynamic linking to libGL1 is a must[0].

Python + Tkinter + Pyinstaller works, but does not support cross-compilation, and I've personally had some portability issues with it (e.g. under Linux, the GUI mainloop doesn't work outside of the main thread; under Windows, if you start a Process after setting up GUI, each process will create its own window, so you must start all the Process-es beforehand).

Exactly.

Legacy regulations governing the occupant compartment are not yet a practical impediment for self driving cars because they haven't got that far yet.

Realistically what the removal of this regulation means is that some hypothetical future company with an autonomous yard spotter can drive the thing 500yd down the public way from warehouse B to warehouse C without the legal department getting antsy.

Well, you don't have to do anything for them to claim something. They can just claim that there is no invasion, that there are no troops there, and that they didn't destroy a hospital... and at the same time claim (on a banned media tool) that you are a terrorist that supported violence against russian military in the same city, Mariupol "which has always been a part of Eastasia".

It's just full on nonsense trolling, but it could go nuclear, and it will have tremendous economic consequences.
Football’s crypto king and the missing millions
One of my favorite youtubers did an hour long video on the trucker convoy from California to DC and it was a peak into another world. The thing I thought about after watching it was wondering what it looks like when that group has mass unemployment in 10 years.

Truck driving employs 1% of the US population and if those jobs are lost to automation, there's no chance of them coming back like they did throughout other recessions. It won't just be the drivers, it'll be their friends, families and children that will be unemployed, unhappy, and very motivated.

No, my point is, that is a false dichotomy.
Please put a TLDR at the top of this post. There is currently one sentence that refers to “financial education” but no further details on what that entails until you read a long story about how you met. I skimmed the post but still don’t know what market you’re in or how you’re differentiated. Most HNers will care more about your product/vision than the story of how you met.
There’s definitely an option #3 here: ad-blockers eventually lose the arms race. We’re already partially there.
This isn't just a climber concern: I've had a tarp come undone in the wind due to this very issue.
Ah, memories. I took job in 1985 at Skyline Video near the World Trade Center at Trinity Place. We sold videos, blanks, and rented movies and big, big VCRs that people would rent for the weekend ($80 or $100 IIRC) or a night($60). Andy was the owner, and Jim and Howie were his partner and manager. If any of you recall anything about that store, or the workers, I'd love to hear about it. Good times watching videos after work, bringing home a VCR, if available, to my family with three videos! We were at the poverty line for many years, so this was a very special treat. Living large in the 80s!
This is great! It was hard to really see the value at first, but once I watched one of Daniel's video and saw how he used it I was able to see the advantages.

The ad model is unsustainable for many other reasons too and it will likely fail anyway.

Why was your political affiliation relevant to that story? Peppering that non-sequitur in might mean you’re more focused on politics as teams than is warranted or justified.
If any ad-evasion technology was ever going to be banned legally, it would have been TiVo. The internet is far less reliant on straight ad revenue than TV shows were.
Legally banning adblock will open up a large can of worms that I don't think anyone really wants to probe into. Third party "ads" can run shady, if not outright malicious JavaScript. If "adblocking" becomes illegal, does it logically follow then that a visitor to a website is legally compelled to allow the site's shady-ass code to run on their computer?

That would likely fail in the courts, and it might cause inverse blow-back that fully bans such things from running at all. The ad vendors don't want that, because they're probably content to let a minority of users block their ads if it means that the majority still let their ads and all associated tracking/JS run unabated.
Hi! It doesn't add much to what SQLite allows. It's allowed if database is set as read only and you don't opt-out of default WAL mode; if not, the transactions are serialized. Even so, you rarely notice it, because SQLite is quite fast.

Concurrency at the HTTP layer is permitted, though. Basically what is done is to set 1 max connection on the connection pool.

The problem is that the most popular alternative, microtransactions, doesn't work. Turns out there is a big psychological barrier between free and literally any payment at all, even a few pennies. People are sensitive to the danger of being nickled and dimed to death.

And that's before you get into the problem of how to set up a clearinghouse where you can handle microtransactions without being eaten alive by fees.

Logically there needs to be a way to control the car at all times, otherwise you could be locked into a long trip you don’t want to take.

Reminds me of a classic linguistics joke (I assume from a Tom Scott video given where I encounter linguistics the most):

A professor is lecturing on linguistics: "In English a double negative has a positive meaning. However, in some languages—such as Russian—a double negative still has a negative meaning. There isn't, however, a language in which a double positive holds a negative meaning."

A student in the back responds: "Yeah, right."

Reminds me of the Nutri-Matic machine:

> When the Drink button was pressed it made an instant but highly detailed examination of the subject's taste buds, a spectroscopic analysis of the subject's metabolism and then sent tiny experimental signals down the neural pathways to the taste centers of the subject's brain to see what was likely to go down well. However, no one knew quite why it did this because it invariably delivered a cupful of liquid that was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.
