That's a great question. We've thought about making CloudStore available sort of like a Supabase. We've been following their progress, and it's inspiring!

We haven't really tried CloudStore + other frameworks. That would be a fun experiment to try next. :)
L&P is indeed carbonated. Used to be reasonably easy to get in the UK, but almost impossible since covid.

How is what he posted a baseless accusation? There's quite literally a base to it: a study published by the NIH. Did they edit their comment?
They already do that. There are weight and position sensors in the passenger seat that will disable the airbag if it detects an object under certain weight and height parameters. The airbag won’t go off if the seat is empty either. If you want a simple example, put a 40lb box of paper or books in the passenger seat and buckle the seat belt. You’ll see that the light on the dash will indicate the passenger airbag is off. I could describe how the system works in more detail, but if your genuinely interested, Im sure there are some good resources on the internet that explain it better than I would.
Believe it or not, a large amount of older men in India have been quite reluctant to start using toilets because going out and defecating on the streets was one of the ways community was formed & men felt they could spend time talking to each other & about their problems.

I think it's a little clearer in the book, but most of the staff left the island for {insert plot point} reasons.
Alternatively, I learned in fluid dynamics that there's a gradient of velocity of the water circulating through any pipe; closer to the walls/floor it's speed is effectively 0, closer to the center it's at the maximum speed (in an ideal pipe/laminar fluid, that is barring turbulences/rocks/etc). In the real world there's definitely pockets of water within the river were the water speed is insignificant/still.

Why are you jumping to judge her? Is totally reasonable for someone in a relationship to want to spend time with their partner, and be upset if they literally never get to. What's even the point of a relationship if there's no companionship?

> I think this is only practical with electric cars.

All cars are electric cars if you put a solar panel on the roof!

I believe that Bentley had this as an option some years ago: The solar panel would power enough of the climate system so that when you returned to your car after a heavy shopping session on Rodeo Drive, it would be warm but not oppressive and would quickly reach your desired temperature when you restarted the engine and turned on the AC.

Of course, as a Bentley owner, you need never worry about leaving your child in the back seat. The nanny is back there and will handle everything.

By all means, let the kid run around town and have fun. I think most of us realize that by the numbers, 'stranger danger' precaution went too far years ago. But errands? They'll have a lifetime of errands when they're older; four years is too young, let them have at least a few years of fun first. Maybe the occasional errand is fun for kids, but I think I know how this ends. Before long it's no longer an adventure and becomes a chore, an obligation. The excitement of buying tomatoes subsides and the kid starts to get scolded for playing before getting his chores done.

Here's my idea: give kids bikes and tell them to be back before dinner.

I generally agree with you, having had to debug nasty Clojure code because somebody thought it was the best fit for the problem (it actually was) but then left the company.

I think prescribing languages should be somewhere it between - settle on one RAD tool/dynamic language (Ruby/Python) for quick new projects, one performant language (Go/Java/Rust) for core services, and one UI framework (React/Angular/Vue).

It is important to use the right tool for the right project, but from a selected set of options that the company has built workforce competency around. Using the latest and greatest often gives you the best technical solution but often at the cost of maintainability and predictability.

> Because no children would ever die in an accident involving public transportation?

I apologise for an appeal to "common sense" since I really don't have any data, but it seems sort of obvious that it would be safer for two reasons:

1. There's almost always other people there, so someone is likely to warn you that you abandoned your kid.

2. Your kid is there with you, so it's not like you have to remember them.

You're trying to make the argument that "a few kids being locked in cars every year isn't that significant in the larger picture". That's a different argument than "the reason kids are locked in cars is because people are driving in cars".
right you are, the person to whom they replied.

A good database of municipalities for the drop-down selector for location. But when I select my town, the site gets my location wrong.

The Town of Harvard is not very near the university named Harvard, nor the Cambridge neighborhood of Harvard Square. So either the location of the town is incorrect, or the application is in some other way misinterpreting the selected location.

It also finds no cafes near Harvard Square.
I think the "Stranger Danger" panic that accelerated in the 80's is probably more responsible for people thinking that a 4-year old is incapable of running errands. It's not so much the lack of mental capacity as it is decades of cultural inculcation that you should not dare to let any child under the age of ___ wander the streets alone, or they will be immediately abducted, assaulted, and decapitated by dark forces.

Hi. Here is a use case you can carry on to future discussions. There is a flourishing scene of dark net markets where people can purchase drugs using cryptocurrency. Merchants have reviews, products have reviews, and the whole process is much safer, secure, and convenient than meeting a drug dealer in real life with cash.

I remember reading this a few years before my son was born. It was a crushing read then, and is not less so now.

Also, Gene Weingarten is a national treasure. His writing in general and this piece in particular make me want to be sure newspapers prosper enough that it's always someone's paying job to be a long-form journalist. Even if I frequently get my news other ways, that is an extremely valuable social function.
Trigger warning, the article uses very descriptive and disturbing language to describe the death of a child... not something I really wanted to read today.

But as an engineer of machines that test automotive safety systems, including the LATCH restraints that anchored the carseats in which those children sat, and also the window motors that sealed them in, I wonder if there's more we could do here on a systemic level.

We live in a society that uses a mode of transportation which has two characteristics: One, to be safe at speed, small children must be buckled in the back by adults known to be fallible, forgetful, imperfect humans, in such a way that the toddler cannot escape, and two, because the vehicle must be theft-proof and rain-proof, when parked in ordinary sunlight, it becomes a greenhouse which would kill a child in that seat. There are 1.4 billion vehicles in the world, it's only a matter of time before probability will cause these problems to align.

Knowing that this is a thing that could happen - no, poor choice of language, WILL happen again - how could we build a better car that will avoid these issues? Many new cars have infrared temperature sensors for automatic climate control, why not run the fan to keep the internal temperature survivable for the first 24 hours it's locked? It's already a pain dealing with automotive requirements that wiring and circuits be capable of a -40 to 105 C temperature range. Why not relax these for the cabin, and include vents or louvers (or crack the sunroof automatically) to allow air exchange when parked? Cars also have microphones inside the cabin for hands-free phone use, could the mic pick up the distress of a child and sound the horn/alarm or open the windows?

No, I don't want to encourage people to leave their kids in their cars, and I don't want anyone's battery to run dead, or their upholstery to get rained on, or their car to be cold in the snow, or a lowered window to result in thefts, or spurious alarms to annoy people...but those are all avoidable.

On average, once per week, a kid dies in a hot car in the US. Villifying the adults isn't working, therefore, we should try something different. And no, making the climate controls smart today won't prevent the three dozen deaths we're likely to see in the next summer months, but eventually those safer cars will trickle down to parents.
Gotta agree. Don't like how UK marmite has a sweet taste to it.
The main incentive for me to work out was getting my body into a better shape to improve my confidence and enlarge my dating pool. However, after I experienced the plethora of its other benefits, I can safely say it's no more about the former goal, but more for the other benefits that come with it such as stress release, more happiness, more energy, drive and focus, much much better sleep, more libido, etc.
They both have a similar savory / umami flavor, but Marmite is much, much more intense and also quite salty unlike nutritional yeast.

Lenovo, in their wisdom (penny pinching I guess), has been soldering either 4 or 8G of ram into the thinkpads for the last few years. This is one of the things that drove me away from them, because it seriously limits the amount of ram that can be installed (vs what is possible) and it messes up any kind of dimm striping one might want to run, as well as restricting you to the generally not great timings of the soldered on ram.

Its irritating and destroys what might otherwise be a pretty desirable machine, compared with any number of less expensive machines that have two DIMM slots.
Immigration is and has always been a hot button. Take for example, the US during the era of exclusive European migration and how it was a challenging and fraught process that entailed tensions, conflicts and even episodic bouts of physical violence to integrate new arrivals and this will always be the case for immigration forever.

So, making it sound like this wave of immigration is particularly different in essence doesn't hold water.

>I'm not sure I understand how you think this is an "industry self-own", or why you find it hilarious.

It's hilarious because it's a retreat to the model we had before Netflix disrupted television with streaming. Now we're back to disparate channels and bundles.

And it's a self-own because consumers don't want this, and will take the path of least resistance. There is no reality where consumers will pay for a dozen streaming services. Pirating will pick up again and then someone will come along to try and consolidate or disrupt and the cycle will continue.
That's awesome. I can't say I've ever really listened to They Might Be Giants but the video for it in your profile is hilarious
Marmite was invented fairly recently (late 19th/early 20th century), apparently by a german scientist who was studying food chemistry and nutrition. (In case you missed the joke, the liquid the parent suggests you can discard is beer).

Miso I know less about but my wild guess would be it's some sort of by product of trying to preserve food.
Jack here from Alexa. Thanks for the feedback. Quality control was nontrivial, to put it succinctly, but we certainly always want to be better. I'll have to check if the issues you've noticed were detected in the judgement scores. For the first utterance you mentioned, all three raters put a score of 1 for spelling_score, which means "There are 1-2 spelling errors." So that's good.

Though we re-collected some utterances with low scores, we didn't have the budget to get perfect scores for all utterances. As such, we decided to include all utterances along with the scores from the 3 raters, such that users can perform filtering as they'd like. Some may want to keep the noise intact to help with training.

I agree with most everything, except I'm not quite sold on vaccines as the a silver bullet:

1) We don't quite understand the impact of a new disease on the vaccinated. /Many/ diseases have debilitating long-term effects. Some vaccines -- for example rabies -- prevent that. Others don't.

2) We don't know how well vaccines will work for future disease.

I view them more as part of a comprehensive solution. What I would have liked to see with COVID, and with future diseases, is a sufficient zero-COVID policy everywhere to stop the disease, as happened with smaller outbreaks in recent years.

My general conclusion is that we ought to have:

- Enough manufacturing capacity to provide everyone in the world with high-filtration masks, disinfecting wipes, plastic gloves, and similar basic supplies

- Enough vaccine manufacturing capacity to be able to roll out an mRNA vaccine to 7 billion people in a few months at most

- Enough manufacturing capacity to be able to spin out things like antigen and PCR tests quickly

- Some plan for supply chains to get everyone food if we need another lockdown

- Plans for contact tracing, ideally with practice drills.

- Perhaps, some plan for how our economy doesn't implode on a lockdown. This went surprisingly well with covid19, but I feel a little bit by fluke.

... and similar types of emergency precautions.

There's a slow-rolling crisis as many local governments find they can't afford to maintain (much less rebuild) so many roads. Many are being downgraded to gravel.
Perhaps not, assuming they were exposed to it their whole lives, and have immunity to the local microorganisms. For a more relatable example, don't drink the water in Mexico, even if you see the locals drinking it.
Some of the pro-Apple commentary that happens in discussions like this is just a response to the constant "you got suckered by Steve Jobs Reality Distortion Field" style of comments. Anti-Apple folks like to insinuate (if not proclaim outright) that Apple users are less technical than Linux users, they're stupid, etc.

Meanwhile, some of us just wanted a decently polished desktop GUI that runs a unix command line natively. You could say that Windows now supports this, and Linux desktops have made some progress, but when I switched over to primarily using OSX for my workstation years ago, neither was remotely true. I stick with it because inertia, just like most everyone else.

I shudder to think at the wake of destruction left behind by all these freelancers that come in, implement a brand new service in their own language of choice without much regard to the tooling and ecosystem that the rest of the company is invested in, and then bounce, leaving everyone else to figure out how to support it in the future.

As an EM that strikes me as a very bad model to engage with contractors on, I'm surprised that it's such a common gig for you. But hey, more power to you, it must be fun getting to do a lot greenfield projects without the long-term responsibility.
If you know of a way to portably expose ray tracing even on just the GPUs that actually support it, feel free to tell me (or anyone for that matter). AFAIK the problem of abstracting over the different stuff Nvidia and AMD call "ray tracing" is currently an open research problem. Of course you could respond that portability isn't important if you only care about delivering the best graphics you can on given hardware, but if you're really willing to write totally different pipelines for newer AMD cards, newer Nvidia cards, older cards, consoles, etc. you are probably not in the target audience for WebGPU.

(BTW, the biggest reason stuff like wgpu-rs doesn't support geometry shaders on non-Metal is that they're horribly slow on a bunch of GPUs, with vendors indicating that they found it super hard to profitably support them in hardware. That's why Metal removed them entirely. I think all the features of geometry shaders that are actually reliably fast, as well as the stuff required to integrate with tessellation shaders, will almost certainly come eventually in other forms. This is an example of why if you care about performance and portability you shouldn't just dump every feature under the sun into your abstraction layer).

I believe they (Twitter etc) are working on moderation. I do not know if that is their core competency or if they want to be in the content moderation business. I was wondering if a 3rd party might provide content moderation as a service.

Transparency is very important. If you can’t explain your solution then maybe a simpler, but less accurate method is preferred. Maybe you could set some defaults but allow more user control. Maybe you could have humans in the decision making process, but still integrate with ML models for scale. I don’t know best solution, but offering content moderation as a service would shift some blame away from social media platform even if it was not better than what they were doing in-house.
