It's hard to see how you could blame this on idempotency - even the author's questionable definition[1]. He pretty much explains what went wrong in black and white:

"Don't assume "unknown" means "good". Assume the opposite." Ding! We have a winner.

"This API at the time retuned only 200s where the body had a message to be parsed which indicated success / status message / error." - and that's how you got yourself into this mess in the first place.

What I would really like to know is how the financial loss compares to the loss if Uber had handled the situation "correctly", i.e. stopped the transactions. I mean, is a restaurant really better off turning customers away all day, vs giving them free food all day? And if so, by how much?

[1] i.e that idempotency means always getting the same response, as opposed to the usual meaning which is that repeating the request n times leaves the system in the same state as the first time.

He might not have had to purchased it, it could have been given to him as a perk of employment, and when he was let go...it was rescinded until he could purchase it like everyone else?
No such thing as making decisions due to free will alone
I totally agree there is something important going on with feedback loops and the brain (and vision, and the mind) - especially loops made of loops (made of loops).

I wrote something up around 2010 on my thoughts about all this stuff when I was first contemplating the HD feedback device. You might find it interesting - you can read it here: https://walkswithdave.tumblr.com/post/38950021331
It's an absolute shitstorm that electric vehicles are taking the phone route to near no ownership

This shows that you don't own a Tesla, it owns you

Come now, kicking someone out of a beta - former employee or not - who is using the access to post reviews is hardly new or unique to this situation. Nor is it unethical.
C isn't difficult to parse, so you could probably automate splitting of C source files on e.g. function boundaries.

But then again, with a single-pass compiler, it shouldn't matter how large the input is, no? I know there are forks of tcc with ARM support...
The RHNA allocation for unincorporated Marin County is only 184 homes over the next 8 years, for the entire county of 828 square miles. Are you saying we can't figure out how to put one new dwelling on every 3000 acres?

Edit: er, that was the previous 8 years. The next 8 years calls for 3569 new dwellings.
That happened late 70s and early 80s.
That video did not remotely seem like he intentionally crashed it like others are speculating. They even braked the car, which the TSLA didn't respect.

Not to mention, it ran a rolling right turn on a red light. FSD is definitely not ready for mass market, although TSLA seems to be willing to make the bets necessary to make that happen, the only way it can.
Probably. But not specifically according to the NATO charter.

If foreign heads of state walk into a war zone, they should assume all the personal risks of doing so.
Just wanted to say I love how you were able to squeeze in a dig at Electron in a geopolitical/economic discussion.
This is how it's done in Chicago - neighborhoods full of 2-to-4-flats with one set of interior stairs, a 1000-sqft-ish 2br unit on each floor, and a back staircase / deck made of wood, where you can grill out and mingle with your neighbors. Good living
AFAIK weaponizing chemicals is the hard part, especially distribution. You need to cover a very large area to be effective, deal with wind, etc. We can imagine all sorts of chemicals that, if they could be distributed widely, would be effective, but it ain't easy.
"The main reason people live there is to feel remote and rural. It is a way of life."

Marin County is one of the most segregated counties in the Bay Area, and by design from legacy housing policies. It's hard to ignore the fact that "preserving the essence" is the same thing as "continue to be a heavily segregated" locale.

"An inordinate number of the most segregated cities in the Bay Area are smaller cities that are more than 85 percent white in Marin County (Ross, Belvedere, Sausalito, San Anselmo, Fairfax, and Mill Valley are each in the top 10). Two of the top 10 are similarly small-sized, heavily white cities in San Mateo County (Portola Valley and Woodside)."

I also wouldn't assume in their case, like many others, the risks outweigh the rewards. If they hadn't gotten fired it obviously worked.

They will profit financially from this - either directly by suing TSLA or indirectly from the infamy.

While milk, bread, and Russian vehicles might be fine for being in the 1950’s (even Putin drives around in Mercedes lol), for a 21st century standard of living, many conveniences will be unreachable.

Think medical equipment, home appliances, rural labor support (tractors, chainsaws, etc.) recreation (skis, racquets, etc). The rest will still be greatly impacted by factories not having access to western supply chain parts.
I have no horse in this race, but they only cut off access to the FSD Beta. He still has access to normal FSD.

I'm not a lawyer, but since it's a closed, invite only program, my guess would be that makes things a little less black and white.
The city (town) below is Lower Dharamshala, and McLeod Ganj is just another name for Upper Dharamshala. The Central Tibetan Administration, physically located in the upper part, consider themselves to be in "Dharamshala", and so does the Indian post office.

1Password: Responding to the Conflict in Ukraine
It’s been days since 1password removed the app from Russian app stores. This blog post was supposed to address this.

There’s an elephant missing in the room: no mention of the app removal whatsoever.

> If you’re an existing customer in Russia, you can continue to use 1Password normally until the end of your current billing period

How is “use normally“ possible if there’s no app to download on your phone or tablet? You may need to restore your phone or intentionally temporary delete the app (there’re several reasons one could be forced to do it).

> As a result of the ongoing sanctions, many payment providers – including ours – have stopped processing payments with a billing address in Russia

Apple app store is working and apple accepts payments via russian MIR cards or via cellular operator balance account. So in-app purchases are working just fine (of all closed gardens and other stuff it’s an irony and a blessing that Apple still works here).

So 1password _chose_ to intentionally harm and to cut off all russian customers (including the ones that fled the country) and hadn’t the balls to admit it. The reason for that were not payments (they still work just fine, at least inside apple ecosystem). Moreover, 1password chose to remove the _only_ currently working payment channel — via apple in-app purchase — and thus deleted the apps from the app store to remove this loophole (and keeps silent about it).

> until the end of your current billing period

On the side note: that’s all we need to know about subscriptions. And having vaults inside the proprietary cloud (previous version supported private vault inside the icloud or dropbox and thus could work for several years depending on the ios breaking changes).

This project is actually on my near-term TODO list. I've been planning on implementing it as a recipe site where every ingredient is a recipe itself.
This service is apparently "$12,000 up front or $199 per month" according to this article. You are saying that people should not be allowed to show that this very expensive service is not very good as it can't handle and empty street with a small pole in it? And that showing that this very expensive service is not very good is "against the terms" and should lead to "revocation" (presumably without refund)? That sounds like some border-line dystopian stuff here.

Anyway, this FSD beta is billed to "enable Tesla vehicles to virtually drive themselves both on highways and city streets by simply entering a location in the navigation system, but it is still considered a level 2 driver assist since it requires driver supervision at all times." Maybe, for the safety of everyone on the road, this entire thing shouldn't exist considering how badly it performs. But apparently showing this thing is kinda crap is the problem, rather than the company using the actual roads for the beta tests of their crappy software.
I love the title of the bill: "Sunshine Protection Act". This is great news. I am in Australia, and if this becomes law in the States it is more likely to be seriously considered here. We have a situation with half the country on DST and the other half on standard time. It hits a lot of us very hard at the end of April when DST ends.
The guy laughing at the car almost running down the cyclist is a goddamn psychopath. They were moments away from injuring or killing someone.
This comment needed a sarcasm tag (I think).
That cars are capable of crashing was known before FSD was even a thing. Statistically, you should be much more afraid of the cars driven by human drivers, because they can do everything FSD can, and there's truly not many on the road using FSD.
Its an absolutely bonkers aspect of US society.

Its not that one needs to be blind to "race", and who could be blind to differences in skin colour? Its that Americans seem to be taught that it is so very important, and that instead of applying situational relevancy, they default to cultural relevancy.

So race and skin colour gets mentioned all the time, even by people who aren't bigoted. This can be seen in their news broadcasts, where they will find or make premise for mentioning brown people's ancestry, even when it isn't truly relevant.

Kid rescues puppy from sewer drain? Gotta mention that he's African American. Never mind that there he is on camera, and anyone can see, and shouldn't care. And thus morality is tied to visual appearance.

In that sense, US society is like the TempleOS guy, who, possibly not even due to his mental illness, needed to squeeze references to his faith into every digital corner.

Historically time zones were the purview of cities. (Often it was the banks and/or churches in a city coordinating time for that city and its relation to solar noon.) It's why the IANA preferred timezone identifiers are cities like America/New_York, America/Mexico_City, Europe/Berlin, etc. Go back far enough in the IANA timezone database (which is used for all sorts of things on the internet and in general computing today) and you'll find all sorts of interesting historic timezone offsets for cities. Some not even to a round offset like 30 minutes, but to single minute or even fractional minute (seconds, milliseconds) offsets from UTC.

I don't know if a return to per-city offsets is the best idea. Software could handle a lot of the messy details for us in ways that the railroads could not have taken advantage of with only so much space for physical clocks. But a return to per-city offsets isn't really the worst idea either if we are looking at what problems Daylight Saving Time was supposed to solve and didn't solve very well.
My own experience has been that, at least in the case of severe mental illness, even well-meaning people can hurt others a lot, without meaning to.
This is what I use on Manjaro and it works well.
But nobody here denied that the US military has contributed to the Internet we're using for this very discussion. Someone did, however, claim that "GDPR cookies are the EU's only contribution to the WWW!", either ignoring or ignorant of the fact that the Web was invented at the EU-funded (and -founded?) CERN.

So your equivalence is invalid.
> Of course people would still publish those sorts of "conversion tables"/offsets, because people would still have that exact problem! But they'd possibly be a bit more precise than historically - with current computer tech, it might actually be more accurate, e.g. using actual GPS coords instead of broad swaths, so it would be like "Denver is 6.24 (or whatever) hours behind your current location." Let alone how much better that might work for cities in single-timezone China, say.

This is keeping (a rationalized version of) time zones in every respect except for how people set their clocks.

In the system you propose, people would operate at the equivalent of 9 AM to 5 PM, except you expect that they'd quote different times (even with fractional hours) to maintain the façade that time zones no longer exist. A business no longer operates nine to five, it's 1:15 PM to 9:15 PM, and people can't just say "Oh, Denver is six hours behind London right now" because Denver isn't exactly ninety degrees west of London.

Ironically, aside from everyone around the world setting their clocks to the same time, that's how time worked prior to the introduction of time zones, so I can't fault you for coming up with that idea.

Lush Life by Richard Price

The Godfather by Mario Puzo

V by Thomas Pynchon

I don't know why everyone has to crap on that novel every time the movie comes up. Much of the movie is a straight copy from the book, including plenty of word-for-word dialogue reuse. The book does have a couple of subplots that are embarrassingly bad, though--almost as if Puzo felt the need to tack on some halted novellas he had in his drawer.
It speaks to who is still driving into work and would find value in Sirius XM these days. That group is probably changing and getting younger.

From 9 to 5 (or some other 8 hour block - e.g. 7 to 3), don't let your personal life interfere with your work - including social media, email, text messages et cetera. Without distractions, you'll get all of your work done with time to spare.

You have plenty of time from 5 pm to 9 am + weekends to enjoy your personal life.
> The four freedoms are guaranteed by it

Nope. The BSD license does not guarantee source to users. It's very free in that it places minimal restrictions what can be done with, but it doesn't guarantee the four freedoms to people who (for instance) receive binaries of modified works.

I'm not saying it's bad because of this, I don't want to start a flame war here.
Honestly, that’s the worst part of it. Sometimes people need to die and ugly things need to happen, but our overreliance on these means and how frankly unquiet our “quiet work” is is just sickening. I don’t know what’s involved in this kind of work, but if these are our best I’m very disappointed.
So did your dad get the beta for free as a perk? Or did he have to buy FSD to participate in the beta? Without knowing more, pitchforking at this point is probably not called for.

You claimed F500s do not ever pay that much. The fact an ancient prehistoric company like Verizon is paying garden variety senior developers $300k disputes that statement. I didn't even have to fish very far to find those examples.

Clearly the real maximum isn't the real maximum if $300k offers are possible. In Arizona, no less.
I'm pro-development, but, to a point. I actually agree with most of this. It seems the height of hubris for lawmakers in Sacramento to insist that no, you 350 people in this town, you don't know how the town should be developed, we're going to mandate it for you and force you to do it how we want, local character and situation be damned.

I think the middle ground is that you have to be careful about what zoning and planning codes do and don't allow. In my view, a property owner like you should have pretty broad discretion about how a place gets developed. A lot of very nice-looking town centers developed in the late 1800s/early 1900s (North America) without zoning. It got done because it worked, more expensive/taller/nicer buildings near the middle of the city (on more valuable land) and less-expensive, "lower" uses toward the periphery. It's simple market incentives. The trouble comes when the tax code, zoning, or other policies discourage the natural, higher-intensity development from creating more housing on higher-value land. You're just looking at the incentives and being a good businessperson. People (blue collar) want a place to live. You're giving it to them at a price they can afford. This should be celebrated, not vilified.

I also own (market rate) low-income housing. In the neighborhood where I grew up, there are a bunch of lots with older houses sitting vacant. I own an apartment there and would love to convert some of the existing (empty) houses into duplexes/four-plexes, but can't out of a misguided sense of it being a "single-family neighborhood". This makes no sense. I'm turning something people don't want, into something they do. The zoning completely ignores market forces out of a misguided attempt for neighbors to force their view onto other property owners.

It's well-intentioned but, as other posters have said, carries a huge cost we need to talk about more openly.
