Waymo claims they will cost somewhere in the 150k range.
This sounds so bizarre to those of us in countries with universal healthcare, tight gun control, and much less authoritarianism.
At least we'll have cryptocurrencies
> You can’t un-screw a system by just telling the people inside who were selected for their mendacity and corruption to “make the right choices”.

Of course not, but it's still the politicians (on both sides of the aisle) who are ultimately at fault for abusing their position and failing in their duty to their constituents, not the lobbyists for merely making suggestions or offering deals in their own self-interest. Restricting lobbying or campaign contributions wouldn't do anything to improve existing politicians' "mendacity and corruption". They'll just find other, less public, ways to serve themselves rather than their constituents.
> Yeah, your explanation really hits the nail in regards to what I was trying to understand

:)

There's a lot of knowledge, and acronyms, and BS out there. E.g. there is no need to discuss PCIe here. It's much easier, and enjoyable, to cultivate a simple understanding of fundamentals. Build up from there. Reduce it down to your own simple model.

Interconnects focus on the transfer of data between components in the system. Topics like topology, switching/routing, and performance come into play. But, for the purposes of the simple model described above, all you really need to grasp is topology. I.e., how are things connected and where is data flowing?

The memory model is another extension to the simple model described above. Both the CPU and the GPU have access to DRAM memory (shared memory). The CPU can send transactions to the GPU, and the GPU can interrupt the CPU. These are all different paths thru the system. But, remember that we described a very specific order of events that need to happen for shared memory communication between CPU and GPU. E.g. (1) the CPU sends transactions to the DDR controller to store some information in DRAM memory, and then (2) sends a transaction to the GPU to inform the GPU that it can now (3) send transactions to the DDR controller to retrieve that information from DRAM memory. But what if (1) and (3) happen much faster than (2)? The GPU will get old data, not the new data that was written by the CPU. Managing these order of events in the system is what the memory model is all about. What if shared memory exists not only in DRAM memory but also in caches elsewhere in the system?

Edit:

Back to your question of "how a CPU tells a GPU to start executing a program"...

In the simple model, you could imagine something like: (1) CPU stores the shader program in DRAM memory. (2) CPU writes a GPU register informing the GPU of what address the shader program is located at in DRAM memory. (3) CPU also informs the GPU of the size of the shader program. (4) GPU loads the shader program from DRAM memory. (5) GPU starts executing shader program.
ESA supports Indian lunar and solar missions
I totally agree, that's the point of my comment even. This is a moving target, nothing 'always' about it. We're discussing the decline of facebook over time, and it started being popular with an entirely different age group than it is now.

I also think it's worth noting these are relatively new phenomenon, we haven't even had social networks for long enough to pin down trends so absolutely.
I guess that would be a reasonable take if Waymo announced they were "close" or had solved "x technical problems". But here progress = cars on the road with no driver in more and more difficult situations. So, even if more problems keep coming up they seem to be overcoming them at a good clip.
How will this scale? As they release to more locations there will be a higher likelihood of a bad accident. Once there is any bad accident the whole fleet is shut down. On the other hand, if an Uber driver has a bad accident only the driver is fired.
Do things like [myhnusername] @ gmail.com Which implies to replace [myhnusername] with their HN username. I used to scrape - this is not worth the time to fix or patch for.

The Conflict of Interest Feedback Loop
You have lots of options. Meds always sound unappealing but they can be a huge boon for some. CBT can be very useful pretty quickly without any sort of drug, but it’s not for everyone. Executive Functioning coaches (not “executive coaches!”) can be useful for practical work/life organization strategies. Date around with EF coaches because many people with vastly different qualification levels work under that name.

Diagnosis can be emotionally helpful— they’re often done by neuropsych evaluation specialists but you should talk to a psychologist or psychiatrist first because evaluation is a few grand, most insurances won’t cover it if you don’t seem very likely to be diagnosed including DSM-V criteria like having significant life changing symptoms before age 12. The testing itself is a few hours of tests designed to push you to your limits for things like working memory, impulsivity, and reaction time. (I was waiting for the tester to say “Reaction time is a factor in this, so please pay attention.”) Parts got frustrating but not like Megaman frustrating.

Depression and/or anxiety are commodities in 80% of those afflicted, so that’s worth paying attention to also.
Compare that to 3 engineers struggling through solving problems in isolation because they lack information that is in each other's head.

Culturally traditional management is biased to create the 3 struggling engineers scenario because most management strongly believes that people working on many tasks in parallel is peak efficiency. You see this manifest in places that run the Jira + PR feature mill. Staff that complete lots of jiras and have lots of green dots PRs in their GitHub profile are considered "peak performers"

The fortune 500 is littered with companies full of this anti-pattern. Less so each year though, because if amazing execution on digital transformation matters to the business, to the extent those 3 struggling engineers execute poorly, the competition slowly eats the incumbent's market share.
People are going to shit on this because it's coming from Facebook (pardon me, Meta). And you know what? They're right to. Facebook has proven time and time again that it's wildly disinterested in being a good actor; this is like the man who burgled your house last year coming over to sell you a security system, promising he's gone clean.

Heck, maybe this works wonderfully, and there's a mathematical proof of it. But if you shit in my well, you don't get to sell me bottled water.
You can't "catch up" on sleep. The only way to get enough sleep is to have a schedule that you stick to.

It's ok to think about work off hours. Write down your thoughts, do some meditation practice to learn to let the work thoughts flow by and notice them, but let them go.
I've seen this many times and completely agree. Nearly every issue that I've had managing teams that hasn't easily resolved with communication has come down to ego. I'd go so far as to say that weeding out ego during the hiring process is the most effective thing you can do.
Someone with much more experience than me once told me it always takes a year. He turned out to be right, at least over the past 25 years.
even at Dongarra's lab, gotoblas saw heavy use. LINPACK didn't need to be the fastest - just the original/reference implementation.
In case you see this, I've added basic support for expiring posts.

3. The Ruble tanked, affecting cash and card users alike.
The more interesting part of this is, who has cable anymore? This is completely from personal experience. But I am in my late 20s. Everyone I served with in the Navy around my age (20 to 30) had Netflix and Hulu, not DirectTV. Even now in the civilian world, I don’t find anyone under 40 with cable or satellite TV. Even a few people over 40 I know dumped conventional TV years ago and use AppleTV.

TV New ratings for Fox, CNN, and MSNBC, are they really still relevant to discourse? Would it be better to use internet rankings?
The same "trick" to seeing stereograms will allow you to quickly find the differences in the "spot the difference between these two pictures" puzzles as long as you have the images side by side. When your focus causes the pictures to overlay, the differences jump out.
Except when, you know, "the eftpos machine isn't working today".. for real though, "cash only" signs are a very common sight outside the Sydney CBD. (can't speak for other cities)
Interesting wiki article, very insightful! As a manager myself, I think it's very important to be aware of whether you are playing the "rescuer" and perpetuating dysfunction, or acting as a "coach" and helping others to actually change and learn.
Nice to see fellow APLers here! I have been at APL 5 years and like it a lot.
I don’t accept a world where people and businesses can’t both choose whether the use cash or eCash for any transaction.

I think diversity is good. Have some cash in case the ATMs fail for a week, have credit cards for day to day convenience.

Privacy issues are also a huge issue but most people choose to ignore them.
24% navigation is why I love pycharm so much. I'd 1v1 anybody on a new python codebase for speed of navigation.
How does Naphazoline (usually administrated as nasal drops) compare to pseudoephedrine?
This is more about building sufficient experience in something rather than being perfectly rational. For instance, think of the color green. You know green when you see it. Why? Because of the numerous experiences you’ve had that have reinforced your knowledge of the color green. Such reinforcement applies to all your other experiences as well, including engineering. After some time, you should know whether or not you’re a good engineer without external validation.
bug company -> big company
Yes; APL is a University Affiliated Research Center (UARC) and while we sometimes do work with industry, our whole purpose is to support the US Government. That doesn't necessarily mean you need a clearance, but much of our work is national security related.

Or simply you misplace your wallet.

Then you have to make the decision of how much you're willing to risk in taking out of your "totally safe" under-the-mattress stash each day, and that runs into inconvenience of if too high you lost a lot after a few beers on a Friday night, if too small you can't buy everything you wanted in the spur of the moment.
Proprietary social media are shaping the future of Pepper & Carrot
Exactly, so it's not the case that FB has 'always' been for old people, is my point. It has evolved over time, as we're seeing most social networks doing. It seems hard to become a long term incumbent, but it's evolving in front of us.
One thing that this article doesn't discuss is that performance is rarely something objective, and is unfortunately very subjective at times.

I've managed many smart people and it is common for Person A to complain about Person B's performance and to be wrong about it.

Another situation is that if a manager's only evidence of a performance problem is the word of another teammate, it's hard to distinguish between performance problems and collaboration problems.
Grammarly is functionally a keylogger. That they might not retain the text sent to their server is a policy decision you have no control over.
I was lucky to get extra projects at school which were self directed flat games using PowerPoint, and a few other tools on the school computers. definitely some of my favourite projects as a young kid

I've said this a few times before, but:

Sanger left the Wikipedia project in 2002, when it was barely a year old. That was twenty years ago. It is frustrating that he is still treated as an authority who can comment meaningfully on the site's current policies and management -- the Wikipedia he left behind in 2002 is not the Wikipedia that exists today.
If they're still poor, sure.

If they now make a decent developed country salary, haggling in a poor country over 0.0001% of your monthly salary is probably not an efficient use of their time, but old (irrational now) habits die hard.
>> housing bubble

I don't know if you know about the residential infill project, but a vast amount of zoning in Portland has now been opened up for multi-unit development (including my block). The bubble grew in large part because a lot of people moved to Portland in the last 15 years. As far as me "taking advantage" of a system, I'm not a house-flipper or a real estate speculator. I think it's fair to work and save for 25 years and buy a house without being accused of being a greedy exploitative capitalist. It's also fair to want to live in peace without constant screaming outside your window.

>> you don’t have to invade country to instigate a war.

This is like saying Chris Rock instigated getting hit. To say that the US instigated it is ludicrous. By that logic, Saddam Hussein instigated the Iraq war, didn't he? Did America also instigate Russia's invasion of Georgia, or the flattening of Grozny? Did we make Putin drop chemical weapons in Syria? I get irritated when people somehow find a way to blame America for everything as if we're the only country capable of doing something egregious, and nothing bad would ever happen in the world if America didn't exist. Speaking of small-a anarchy, that is the natural state of affairs - and there are always people who want to terrorize or enslave others. If it wasn't America starting wars, it would be someone else; and in this case, it was someone else, so not recognizing that casts doubt on the seriousness of any more nuanced argument you might make about what Putin feels drove him to attack and bomb civilians in Ukraine. In this case I think it's pure victim-blaming to say Ukraine deserved it, or America instigated it. It's tantamount to saying that Russia is fighting a just war, which is insane considering you think war is unjust.
Isn’t Aruba pricing in a different category than Microtik or Ubiquity?
Evidence based is good if you can get it. If not things that are suspected or even experimenting with your own body is worth it.

For example if there is no evidence that a better diet or reducing EMF or strength exercise or drinking pure water etc. will help your condition but there is no harm and fairly low cost to try.

Stay sceptical and open minded too.
I think maybe the idea is you can choose your experience based on what's best for you, if the system is built that way.
What you're suggesting is quite dangerous. You shouldn't accept any source just because it agrees with your opinion. If its a poor source, it should be disregarded. Don't fall for confirmation bias.
> Most of it had to do with scaling - as all this occurred in the frontend of these p2p sites

You didn't say it, exactly, but just in case anyone who's reading casually misses it: this need not be the case with the static fediverse. I didn't mention JS or any sort of fully in-browser aggregator; nothing here requires client logic running on the "frontend" (i.e. in a Web browser). You'd be free to make whatever client choices are appropriate for you, including managing the whole thing via shell scripts (as many people choose to with their static sites).

Note from me: this brings the total upwork fee to:

- 25% for contracts under $500

- 15% for contracts under $10000

- 10% for contracts over $10000
So tiresome. A careful reading of the extensive Wikipedia article makes it quite clear that it was not mostly a hoax. The gist of the work is undoubtedly true: Russia was actively engaged in manipulating the US election, and Trump’s folk were working with the Russians. A shocking number of allegations have, over time, been shown to be truthful. The Steele document is not a hoax.

IF only individuals could make the best decisions about their health. The idea of some ideal perfect "logical" consciousness separate from the real world is a myth.

I drink too much, I eat too much. I know this, and understand it's not a good thing long-term, but I still do it.

More addictive substances would likely make that worse. I'm glad some things are made intentionally hard for my lizard brain to get a hold of.
I went in skeptical, but I was quickly won over. I almost wonder if this is the next incarnation of Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett. And author seems young too. If I ever see hope for humanity, it is with works such as these.

Going through 'Unsong' now.
Thank you so much. You’re also just one of us. Welcome to the internet.
Abstraction is about the core idea without distracting details. Your core idea is likely to either have a finite bound (if the core idea includes bound) or have no bound (if your core idea is just about number). `int32` have the detail of signedness, minimum and maximum bound, underflow and overflow behaviors. Those are distracting details. And those are precise details. Thus, it is not a abstraction at all. It's like a specific 3-lb hammer, is that an abstraction of your hammer?
Significant Solar Flare Erupts from Sun
I think if my meeting with my manager went another way I think I might have spent more time looking for an escape route rather than focusing on the tasks at hand. Someone who thinks they're going to be fired can sometimes cause a self-fulfilling prophecy.
‘Solar wind’ ejecta expected to hit earth on Thursday
That seems low -- 4 grams is the max daily dose for OTC acetaminophen.

According to this [1] the minimum single dose toxicity for APAP is more like 7.5 to 12 grams. Finding a value for a lethal hydrocodone dose is more difficult, but I did see 90 mg mentioned.

For the dose of Vicodin you specified, 90mg of hydrocodone would correspond to 9 grams of APAP. So it's a race that it looks like either one could win.

> just run that thing and send it to me and I can file an exception if there is something on it I disagree with.

This is how it works in Australia. Taxes are filed online with the government authority (ATO), and everything is pre-filled. You just need verify it's correct and make any claims you want.
Venmo also has QR codes. I have never entered someone's handle manually when in the situation described above. The person opens up their code, you scan it. Takes like 5 seconds.
The cartels end up selling $200 bottles of cough medicine and making more money that way. Then they lobby to keep it illegal.
Not only that, but that same bug can probably be caught cheaper with a good human QA department.
I've seen some spot-the-difference games mirror one of the scenes, presumably to prevent exactly this.
About 30 people die in SF per year because of traffic fatalities.

Say 2 people die in a Waymo car in a year … we gotta be cool with that and not ban the whole thing.

Wait what?
This thing probably cost 1000x a roomba to build. Current supply chain issues aside this ‘future’ tech is now accessible to most of the population now.
I am interviewing for hubspot as well currently and I also read the books. Interesting !!
If you'd provided any support with that statement at all, or said /why/ you believe that, it's completely fine. Doesn't even have to be correct! We all get stuff wrong. If you believe you provided the support in a different comment, cite it.

"I'm right, go find the evidence if you dare doubt me." Not so useful.
> Roughly 10%'s difference; quite a bit heavier!

Personally I'd call 10% tiny.

Also you save a third of that when you remove the driver.
Old people have cable. And they tend to be the most reliable voters.
I don't think we're anywhere close to the limit of Consul's ability to scale, but I think we're abusing Consul's API. If I had to pinpoint an "original sin" of how we use the Hashistack here, it's that we need individual per-instance metadata for literally all our services, everywhere. I can't imagine that's how normal teams use Consul.
1st Amendment?
It was a joke. Travelers checks aren’t like regular checks — they’re more like cashier’s checks or money orders. Losing them is a very big problem.
Thanks for giving us some background on the conflict.
