A lot of people in this thread are mixing up the FSD option (that you buy for your car) with the invite-only FSD beta. Currently the non-beta FSD will drive itself on limited access roads (basically taking you from onramp to offramp, changing lanes, taking interchanges, etc), but it's basically cruise control on surface streets. The FSD beta will self-drive pretty much anywhere (even parking lots) but it has only rolled out to a few percent of Teslas. Both versions use cameras inside the car to monitor the driver's attention. If you blind the internal camera, the car will refuse to engage autopilot or FSD beta.

If you're seeing "egregiously dangerous" behavior, you should call the police. The dash cam should be more than enough evidence to get the reckless driver charged.
I wish there will be a same bill for NZ. DST really sucks :(
That $12k only gives you the ability to request access. It doesn't actually get you anything.

I've read the Forrest Gump novel, and that's about what it rates.
Sounds like he broke some kinda of NDA which he probably signed himself, resulting in removal from the beta program and being let go from his position. That kinda sucks, because it seems his content did have a positive spin to it and it doesnt seem like he meant to hurt anyone or the company.

I don't see whats wrong with the action taken though. He probably agreed to these terms and then he broke them. Whether he was aware that he was going against his own agreement or not is out of the question. I don't like Tesla as a company or a car manufacturer (nothing personal, I just wouldnt buy their cars) and I agree that this response was probably to be expected by anyone who was aware of the terms surrounding their employment and the internal beta access that position grants them.
CEQA for thee, but not for me.
They’re probably in the PNW. In the PNW winter, days are extremely short, there isn’t much you can do to have daylight on two commutes when there’s such short days. We in the Northeast would have much better centered days in DST year round though.
It's not a bad book -- but it IS a pulp novel, Puzo would absolutely admit that. The fact that a decent, but by no means extraordinary book, would go on to be the basis for one of the greatest films of all time is such a rarity (Gone with the Wind is probably the only other similar situation and that novel was probably better critically received in its time than The Godfather was, although it has understandably fallen out of favor today), that it is notable.

Adaptations are tricky and although it is very common for a sublime piece of literature to become a mediocre film, and somewhat common for a fantastic book to become a fantastic film -- it is rare for a film and a screenplay that are inarguably among the greatest of all time to come from a book that would likely not be memorable without the film.

Everything about The Godfather should have been a failure. From the casting, to the production, to the monetary situation at the studio, to the lawsuits, to the source material. But it's a near-perfect film. And that sort of anomaly coming out of such chaos (again, Gone with the Wind is probably the closest similarity when it comes to English-language film) is almost as remarkable as the film itself.

Big downvote from me. Tiny projects are the best way to learn a system. Nobody needs a higher bar for getting started learning some tech. Do a tiny/toy version and keep improving (either in that project or your next one)!

Edit: or in this case it seems the tiny is the goal itself. That's cool too. See also: suckless.org, UNIX philosophy, etc.
Such as a great read!!

This isn't true given what's on state media. It's like saying the US is neutral. I don't believe there are any neutral sides at this point if we're being honest.

I just saw a poll yesterday showing greater support for permanent standard time.

After all, it is "standard".

In my experience the local police don't have time (or bandwidth) for it, unless the person is driving like a total criminal on an ongoing basis.

Is using FSD safely not part of the terms? What about the people I see cruising down the road glued to their phone?
Thank you very much! I am very glad to be a member now.
Yes that's precisely what seems to have happened. A lot of people here have irrational hatred toward Musk and/or Tesla though.
Nice work! Do you plan to implement the rest as well or is this done?
ZZ is the same as :x which are both what I would normally want to do - only write if changed.

I would use :wq! to overwrite readonly files more than I would use :wq The only use case I can think of writing when not changed is if there is a process watching the file that I want to trigger.

I think the problem with teaching people how to save and quit in vim is that there are so many ways they might want to do it and nobody wants to dumb it down to a single default. It is a bit like how Zig doesn't have a simple print macro because in real code do you want your output buffered or unbuffered, etc.
Low friction. Lowering the entry point at which someone can fashion a device to their needs means you have a much bigger market. Approachability is exactly why iPhone succeeded where stylus driven PDAs failed. Something like Pockit makes custom hardware more approachable to a wider audience. Maybe with Pockit, R-Pi might even have its iPhone-like killer app to take it from a niche/techinical crowd into regular consumers hands?
I don't know how we'd ever know that's true; at the very least, the capability would seem to be inherent in the system.
> Make no mistake, no US citizen outside of the political class benefits from this or other atrocities. The exact same goes for the surveillance programs.

And yet it is worth noting that the US government released this information under their own policies to the detriment of the "political class" and their own credibility worldwide. This is an important aspect of Democracies. I doubt you'd see the PRC releasing documents about the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region which will for sure be received as bad any time soon.

(This is not said to justify the acts in the article to be clear, but to point out a property of Democracies which is important)

As a non-Go user who peaks into threads about major Go updates, this is one of the most commonly repeated things I've read.
We’ve tried this before 70 years ago and within a year we changed it back. It’s a bad idea and we haven’t had a national discussion about it. Once everyone on the east coast and Midwest sees it’s dark until 8:30AM it will be reversed if it even passes.

It’s a silly idea that once thought out becomes clear.
I went bald at 22 and I'm sort of weird so outside of a handful of relationships I've largely been single. Having to pretend I'm "interested" going out when I've been in relationships has been tiring, people in general are sort of tiring now.

I love being alone and just doing whatever I want - my last partner also claimed I wasn't "motivated" enough, genuinely convinced relationships are sort of a hassle. More money for travel / doing whatever I want. But idk, good for you if you found a solid relationship.
If you were on an internal beta program of Apple/Google and as an Apple/Google employee badmouthed the product you were testing, would you call it a "shitstorm" if they revoked your access and fired you?
ya.. storing time is hard. in this case since its an alarm, presumably in local time, it should be saved in local time i think.
if it's a log/record of something happening then utc is good.
if its a date without a time, then dont use a full timestamp because any offsets might change the say if you leave it at 00:00.
Restricting the dataset to only the top 10% and bottom 10% while ignoring the middle 80% seems a bit suspicious.
> war is not other means. It is the primal means of diplomacy from which all others spring forth.

Clausewitz, the leading scholar of war in modern history, called it 'the continuation of politics by other means', so it's not so easily discredited.

> the idea that murder is a crime at the personal scale is underpinned by the threat of murder

It may be partly underpinned by that threat, but my choice not to murder is not because of some threat, but because I very strongly don't want to murder people. That is the case for almost all humans, except the sociopaths. I don't follow HN's guidelines because I'm afraid of being banned, but because I want to treat people well and have a high-functioning community. People want to live peacefully, safely, see others prosper, etc.; conflict happens because we feel threatened.

The idea that people are fundamentally sociopaths seems like a popular assumption, and like many logical extremes, I think that is because of its logical clarity. It's a simple, easy theory to work from. But that's not how humans are.

In the international arena, most relationships are not underpinned by threat of violence. For example, the relationships between most European countries are not that way - that's one reason Russia's attack is so shocking. France and Germany are not fundamentally deterred from fighting because of the threat of violence - why the heck would they shoot each other? They want to trade, see each other prosper and live freely, and make money. Though certainly, lacking an effective international government, it is more anarchic and violent than life in democracies.

They have remote root access to the vehicle. Even if they didn’t, they can push an update specific to your vehicle that then drives you off a cliff at a designated time.
And that is the exact joy of using a language like C or Go; you need to sort your things, just add in two pointers and make it a list you sort on. Eight or now sixteen extra bytes and you have a good tuned data structure. I don’t want to use a bunch of generic structures, I want to use the ones that solve my particular use case best.
An enticing UVP for Arti would be that it allows rust services to easily have cheap built-in network redundancy via tor integration. This would make it trivial for administrators to set up alternative access to their services if their services can reach tor.

This would allow global access to services in case of DNS outages, superfluous takedown requests, or anything in between.

Onion service support seems to be TBD, unfortunately.
Good point. I was looking into a way to maximize efficiency on Android without low-level access (no root necessary), so I'm pretty much limited to the charset that I can receive from the Android APIs for encoding binary data into (36864 chars). I was wondering if even the limited character set offered by an Android SMS receiver would still be magnitudes more efficient than the standard GSM-7 character set for encoding binary data, even though the amount of characters is less for each SMS. I'm having a hard time understanding if I'm oversimplifying things by just looking at the ratios 160/128 to 36864/70, in which case I would assume there would be huge benefits to encode data with UCS-2 instead? I haven't the slightest idea in how to accomplish that, maybe iconv would be useful as you mentioned?
That is something interesting to consider though, dedicated hardware could easily take advantage of UCS-2 and encode binary PDUs to the point where you could achieve a somewhat respectable speed for TCP over SMS. Though by that point, I would assume SMS throttling would be a much larger concern so any benefits are mostly theoretical.
So I recognize that everyone's trying to give you advice and you didn't ask for it, so I'll just say this one thing and then I'll shut up.

They sell things called "full-spectrum" lightbulbs that actually do a pretty good job of standing in for the sun. They're expensive, and use a ton of electricity, but people who've struggled with seasonal affective disorder swear by them.

Ask HN: How to reset expectations with a lower paying job
I’m currently working as a dev at a non-FAANG (but still big and well known) tech company. The job pays really well, work life balance is great, and it’s overall a very cushy gig. But… I hate it. I don’t like the day to day work and am completely uninterested in the larger company mission.

So I started job hunting and got an offer doing dev work at a small nonprofit. It feels like a perfect match, but the pay is going to be much lower (My total comp will drop from 300k to 100k USD), and I’m surprised to find myself getting nervous about the financial consequences.

It’s still a six figure job, so I won’t be living in poverty but I’ll clearly need to make some lifestyle adjustments.

I’m hoping some other HN users have made a similar transitions and have tips/tricks/stories about undoing years of lifestyle creep and resetting some of the hedonic adaptation I’ve built up? Is making such a career switch a stupid idea?
Will some states get new timezones that meet their DST needs in response to this?
This doesn't seem quite right, unless I'm misunderstanding. If your bias was 128 (10000000) by your algorithm you would get heads at least 50% of the time (heads on the first flip) and tails at least 25% of the time (heads then tails). I think instead of taking the "wrong" flip result when they don't match, you should treat "getting to the end" as heads and failing before that as tails (or vice versa).
Updates are not automatic. You choose when to install them. People can and regularly do, wait long periods of time before updating.
last time I tried a few months ago, It simply crashed on my wayland kde fedora machine. I wonder if they've fixed that issue for me.
While that's true, you also aren't getting security updates - there have been 222 CVE score 7.0 or higher vulnerabilities for Windows 7 (all versions) assigned on or after the EOL date of 2020/01/14, some of which are rather nasty. While a couple of the most extreme ones did receive patches, the vast majority have not and a fully up to date Win7 system will be hugely vulnerable.

Given that any form of internet connectivity exposes you to a highly adversarial environment, I would personally be very uncomfortable persisting with Win7 - all it takes is one drive-by browser vulnerability and the attacker has a whole host of working exploits that can be used to further compromise your workstation.

I will not bother you further with the security aspect, but circling back to Python - your operating system does not exist in a vacuum, compatibility with Win 7 is actively degrading as it remains the same while Python and everything else continues to change, so it makes sense for them to prevent it being installed. That way the support community's time is not wasted even reading enough of a support issue to see that's on Win 7 and closing the issue - one or two in isolation would be tolerable, but in bulk even assigning or closing tickets would take a decent chunk of resources.
> But China plays a long game.

With Xi in power, I don't feel that they play the long game anymore, or invading Taiwan in the near future wouldn't be in the works. That was only true when it was rule by committee, which is no longer the case. Maybe if Jiang Zemin is ever successful in his assassination attempts there's a chance for China to revert back to CCP committee style rule but I still have doubts. Jiang would still make a better leader than Xi though.

Most critics of Go are well aware of its history and purported design goals. The problem is that the set of features that actually are in Go (like channels) versus those that weren't (like generics) or still aren't (like enums) doesn't really make sense when taking those design goals at face value.

For example, generics. Like you say, the original claim was that they didn't want to do them because they thought that more time is needed to figure out how to do them "right". And so they waited for a decade, and ended up implementing them in a way that's not fundamentally different from most other languages that had them all along. What, exactly, was gained here to justify the productivity lost while waiting?

I will also add that to someone who knows a few PLs, Go is a very boring language in a sense that there's very little new there, neither in terms of individual parts, nor in terms of how they're combined together. So the notion that this combination is somehow so unique that its evolution is like walking on untested ground doesn't pass the smell test.
Naw, King's novella "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption" was totally solid in its own right before the movie. Same with "The Body" and its earlier subsequent "Stand By Me". Both of those from "Different Seasons".

No. Apple didn’t force you to put a screen protector on your phone. That was voluntary on your part.

If Apple’s responsible for this then how far does it go? Should Apple then also give you some sort of compensation for the fuel you expended driving back to the Apple Store that you otherwise wouldn’t have had to if your phone was not defective? What about the general wear and tear on your vehicle for the extra trip? (Or if you don’t drive then the cost of the bus/subway pass for the trip.) Or perhaps they should compensate you for your time. Maybe you had to take off work a bit early. Or you gave up something else to go to the Apple Store to return the device.

You claim it’s ‘not uncommon’ to receive a defective phone these days (I’d like to see some proof to back that up but that’s not the point here) so why not wait to put a screen protector on until you know you have a non-defective phone?

You’d probably have better luck just sending a polite email to the screen protector manufacturer and explain the situation. As the other commenter said, these things are cheap. I’d be willing to bet that the manufacturer would be willing to send you a discount or even just a whole new protector for the sake of brand goodwill.
That's basically guaranteed not to be true. What would prevent them from sending software that does what the current one does except the steering is triggered by different events?
You started off by calling someone a liar for misrepresenting the nature of the countries that are members.

I'd appreciate if you at least finished one argument before shifting to another.
A few more great books that beget great films:

* The Silence of the Lambs
* The Shining
* Shawshank Redemption (novella but I'll allow it)
* Brokeback Mountain (same)
* No Country for Old Men
* Little Women (there are a few versions to choose from but I would choose the 1994 adaptation myself, thought he 2019 version was very good)
* Requiem For a Dream
* Lolita
* Roots (mini-series but I think we should allow it)

That's what I can think of off the top of my head.
You seem to think the arts is a bunch of connected people getting welfare to make terrible-to-mediocre art no one actually wants, and because that doesn't get obscene amounts of funding that the arts as a whole are underfunded. Movies, music, gaming, industrial design, advertising, architecture, publishing, and more are each individually billion dollar industries with an enormous amount of diversity in what is produced. Additionally, hobbyists can go easily semi-pro (or pro) nowadays thanks to websites like Amazon (books), YouTube (movies), SoundCloud (music), Etsy (design/physical art), and Patreon (other). The problem that you are describing is that people who make art that no one wants or people who suck at getting their art to people who like it are not rich. If you make something people like it is easier than any other time in history to make a living in art.
They should read about Prohibition. We were really succcessful with that. Oh, and our War on Drugs - another success story.

Maybe Denmark can pull this off because they are a small country compared to the US. I hope we never try it, because we need to be going in the other direction: if people want to kill themselves, let them do it legally, tax it, and deny them health insurance. At least that will cut down on "crime" and all the court, legal, and police infrastructure that goes with it.
You can't use autopilot or FSD while on your phone. I've tested this myself. Within a second or two you're alerted to grab the wheel and look ahead. If you don't, you'll get locked out of autopilot for the rest of your drive and your safety score will be dinged.[1] Tesla's ML algorithms even have a classification of "PHONE_USE" for the cabin camera.[2]

IOW, we're never going to break even. You and I are paying now, and would in any case never get any of the revenue, if in fact any could be had.

But we are supporting the careers and research of plasma fluid dynamics physicists and their students, and a few of them might do other, actually useful, and anyway wholly unpredictable things, later. With a good measure of luck, none of those things will build up to any world-spanning catastrophes the way the steam engine did.

It's worth remembering that Java and C# didn't have generics initially. And when they did get them, there was a lot of pushback along the same lines; sometimes almost word-to-word about lost simplicity etc.

18 years later, the C# and Java developers are doing fine.
