They've lost 200K subscribes... so far.

The full effect of price increases will take time to fully play out, plus the effects of implementing commercials have yet to be seen. Also, it remains to be seen how other streaming services will respond. Will they raise prices and add commercials too?

If Netflix becomes the one streaming brand most associated with actions hostile to their viewers, this could be the beginning of a long decline.
On one hand, their product is not tech… it’s media. On the other hand, they’ve invented some of the best tech and have some of the best engineers.
My friend worked at UPS. He said you could always tell when someone had bullets shipped because of the rattle and heavy weight. He said those were probably the most common heavy shipment they saw.
Definitely a part of it for some.

Me, I cancelled due to the low quality of their catalog. A decade or so ago, they had a really strong library of media. Now they don't. What they spend their money on, I find to be severely lacking.
It’s also inaccurate to call this language “inclusive.” In reality, you’re excluding most Americans who aren’t among the handful of mostly affluent, white, college educated people who talk like this. My Bangladeshi immigrant mom would have no idea what to do if a warning popped up telling her that she should use a different word than “mother.”
So let's say they Christians decide "git abort" is offensive, do we remove it. And then group X decides term Y is offensive, do we remove it?
Has anyone actually copied the gull-wing doors? I think they are super cool and would buy a Model X specifically because it has those doors.

Same with the touch screen, I do think old-school buttons are pretty good but they were already on their way out before Tesla showed up. With a few exceptions, most car companies had already started pushing more and more things into a shitty touch-screen interface well before Tesla's implementation. I'd say that Tesla's implementation is significantly higher quality than any competitors by a long shot.
Our local 4H program has a robotics team, for example. Right alongside the kids raising extremely fancy chickens (sometimes they're the same kids).

And yeah, colleagues of mine live on anything ranging from an old orchard to a working farm, in addition to those of us who live in town.

I am wondering if it is a better idea to teach R as an intro to programming as compared to Python. I mean you dont have this whole indentation business with R...
I dont view it as that. I would agree if this was a law that did infact "punish" them, however removing exemptions from the law they never should have had in the first place IMO is not "punishment" it is correcting an historic wrong

All businesses should be treated the same under the law by government, Disney should not be treated any different than Acme Entertainment Co.

This is the lesson about "Those in glass houses should not cast stones", Disney was already in a bad spot, and poking the eye of government benefactors is biting the hand that feeds you, them revoking reedy creek is not "punishment" it is justice
I’ve always kind of dreamed of starting something like this. A technocentric rural tech community
I feel like you've never visited any rural area. I grew up in a rural area and most of the people I know from growing up ended up in a city at some point in their life because of the lack of opportunities in the rural area, but very few people fit the stereotype you're putting forth. The place I grew up was a farm town, and my family were also farmers, everybody in my family went to college even though we weren't well-off, and that's true for most other farm families. Farming these days is actually strongly technology-focused, and people go specifically to college for agricultural studies to learn how to cost effectively and sustainably operate their farms. I'm the odd one out in my extended family because I moved far away and went into the tech industry.

I would strongly challenge your belief that rural people are uneducated and unintelligent, it's mostly the exact opposite. Many of the rural people have skills and knowledge far beyond what the average person in the city does, because they have to do more things for themselves in their day to day life. City life is mostly about specialization and formalized/structured job roles and living. Rural life is about doing whatever is necessary to succeed and moving things forward one more day. The average farmer has a strong understanding of multiple trade skills (plumbing, hydraulics, welding, mechanics), as well as at least a basic understanding of mechanical & civil engineering, at least a basic understanding of biology, and at least a basic understanding of electrical systems.

The only thing you really get right here is about the economics of the situation. Rural areas experience brain drain and are shrinking over generations, part of that is due to increase mechanization and automation in farming which reduces the need for farm labor and creates drive for the children of farmers to go into other fields. The lack of employment and economic opportunity is real, and it is something to give due consideration before deciding to move to a rural area. But it's not because people there are stupid, uneducated, or whatever stereotype that comes to mind.

And, on the note of politics, most rural people are more Libertarian than Conservative. They frankly don't care what you do as long as you leave them alone and stay off their land unless you're invited. In my life I've had FAR FAR more negative interactions with other people trying to enforce their beliefs on me in the city than I ever have growing up in a rural area, and at this point in my life I have roughly 20 years of experience in both situations. A basic, simple, and common example is how HOAs operate vs how local politics works in rural areas. I would not describe rural people as Conservative, and I don't know how you'd want to politically describe most city people (Liberal seems inaccurate), but city people are generally busybodies and expect everyone to conform, rural folks don't care what happens on someone else's property.

Surprising lack of technical knowledge here about the current state of Tesla self driving.

Tesla current has 3 wildly different software stacks:

-FSD (invite only beta): this is their latest and greatest that everyone talks about. Surface streets only at the moment.

-Highway autopilot: legacy autopilot stack, AFAIK the next big push is to merge the FSD system to take over for highway and surface streets. The existing/public autopilot is years behind the existing FSD closed beta code (again, to the best of my knowledge)

-Summon: Ancient tech demo held together with duct tape and bubblegum. It is most definitely not using the new FSD stack and is way behind, since it’s a gimmick feature with low utilization they don’t seem to be in a hurry

IMO Tesla should kill the legacy stacks and push hard to get the current (actually quite good) FSD beta stack out to all scenarios.

Then there’s the classic lean chicken and tequila diet[1] (plus green vegetables). It’s physically impossible to gain bodyfat on that diet because the storage form of protein is muscle and other lean tissue and the storage form of alcohol is there isn’t one. The body preferentially metabolizes ethanol for immediate energy needs over all other macronutrients. So if you have fat or carbohydrates in your diet they will get stored as adipose tissue, but if you stick to protein and ethanol you’re good.

The above is a joke. However it’s useful to know if you’re cutting and planning to attend an event where you’ll be consuming alcohol. Just skip all carbs and fat that day and eat protein and dietary fiber and you won’t set yourself back at all.

[1] Any lean protein source will do, including bison, grass fed beef, some fish, some pork cuts, and so on. Same for the ethanol, has to be pure spirits, no sugar mixers.
Unbelievable. Your ""toy"" experimentation led you to such a intriganting and curious mechanism to time series forecasting. Regardless of what I tell you, I wouldn't be capable of expressing my interest in your statement. It might be exciting to move forward and dive deeper in your idea. I will definitely jump on it.
"landlady" existing doesn't mean landlord is gendered. Actor and Actress.
However pleasant a thought experiment that might be - the US's long experience with prohibiting alcoholic beverages eliminating alcohol-related crimes and social problems (oops, it didn't), and the War on Drugs(tm) eliminating drug-related crimes and social problems (oops, it didn't) would seem to suggest that "ban all guns" is not the great idea that one might wish.
My personal homelab (a stack of old laptops connected to a network switch) is mostly built around various experimental antenna arrays used for rtl-sdr hobbies (aircraft and maritime telemetry collection mostly) + home automation over a zwave mesh network. The home automation ecosystem also has a lot overlap with automated gardening/growing, since automated sensing and irrigation are a great use case for tools like home assistant.

Is GrapheneOS the current major open-source-Android that would be recommended for normal users?

I used to use CyanogenMod a long time ago, then heard the recommended option became LineageOS (after I'd already changed from the old phone to a new one with stock Android), I don't know what the current "most likely to work, (reasonably) reliable" option is.
Often, it is plaintext over the internal network. A TLS/SSL terminating load balancer decrypts the traffic, then your request is in clear text as it hits the internal web or app server. It can be sniffed and logged without modifying the application.
I think you are straw manning vs steel manning the argument. I don't think people mind the inclusion of LGBQT or POC people in shows. I don't think people mind even the occasional artificial inclusions - e.g. Mr. Rogers did a great job of bringing in kids with special needs and helped the audience understand that they were people too. He also showed how whites and blacks could be friends and equals in a time when this was still a bit controversial in some pockets of the country.

What bugs people, me included, is very different. It is the forced inclusion of diversity seemingly everywhere. It is the constant subtle messages of "white man evil" in shows where it doesn't add to the plot. It is stuff like the Oscars being explicit about requiring minority leads. It is the one sided diversity where blacks, browns and Muslims are protected but it is perfectly acceptable to make racist jokes about white people or say Christians. It is the subtle shaming of anything conservative.

FYI I am mixed race, liberal, and not Christian. I am also of child rearing age and don't like seeing my kids being indoctrinated at so many levels.

I've been feeling like an impostor since I entered the mid-senior level. Any advice?
> Are you white, male, straight, Christian, etc.? A lot of rural places can become easier if you tick those boxes. If you don't tick those boxes, then you might start wondering how you might be treated differently from living in the city.

I really loved the depiction in Lovecraft Country when the protagonists (black American) were pulled over and given a courtesy notice by the police officer that they were in a "sundown county", where after sunset they would be arrested or killed by that very same police officer.

The sun was setting and they had to get to the next county over before the sun set, but would also meet this same fate if they were driving over the speed limit.

Drama ensues as the police car follows them to the county edge, all at the speed limit.

Now, from the oral and recorded history of people around me - continually dismissed by the white majority from all political leanings - I knew the plot "twist": the next county over was a sundown county too.

Sure enough, at the county line, a line of other police officers wait and capture them, waiting to harass them until justifying killing them, execution style.

I liked that fictional depiction because I hadn't seen it portrayed before, I liked that the show wasn't trying to be about the difficulties of being black American (because many shows with black cast and direction wind up being soap boxes about exactly that, a way for marginalized directors to "finally use their platform"), this show was mostly different while incorporating some plausible realities. Like, what if we did the show Supernatural, where Dean and Sam Winchster wanted to chase demons across America but were black Americans in the 1940s, there would simply be additional shit they would have to continually deal with, nearly indistinguishable from the demons and what the demons would do!
If the rest of the world loves american super hero movies, why would american "culture" (whatever that means) be at fault?

Here's what the first page of the bill says[1]:

> An act relating to parental rights in education requiring district school boards to adopt procedures that comport with certain provisions of law... prohibiting classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in certain grade levels or in a specified manner;

It very explicitly states that the bill prohibits classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in certain grade levels.

There are plenty of parents, politicians and government employees who think that acknowledging that LGBT people exist, and should be respected as people, is not age appropriate. There are parents that are convinced that acknowledging their kids' trans peers' existence will convince them to be trans, too, and that "Timmy has two mommies" isn't age appropriate, either.

I've also heard supporters of the legislation claim that it's meant to prevent kids from being taught about sex, despite it already being illegal in Florida to teach kids in that age group about it.

Inspired by Florida's bill, HB 800 was introduced in Tennessee, which is very explicit about prohibiting educators from using any materials or lessons that normalize, address or support LGBT issues and lifestyles[2]:

> The state board is prohibited from approving for local adoption or granting a waiver for, and LEAs and public charter schools are prohibited from locally adopting or using in the public schools of this state, textbooks and instructional materials or supplemental instructional materials that promote, normalize, support, or address lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, or transgender (LGBT) issues or lifestyles.

Nearly a dozen states have proposed similar legislation that aren't afraid of saying the quiet part out loud.

This 200k subscribers number is missing the elephant in the room. They expected 2.5 million new subscribers. They didn't get those 2.5 million new subscribers and actually lost 200k, so they're technically -2.7 million subscribers.

This may have also triggered an exodus of subscribers too, even if Netflix doesn't do anything additionally stupid to turnoff consumers.
Smart summon requires the user to hold down the button in the app, the user is responsible. The only cases where I would blame Tesla is if the car suddenly rapidly accelerated (the user would not have time to stop the collision) or if the car moved after the user stopped holding the button (the car disobeyed the user's command).
What many may not realize is that there's a thriving industry in sending passengers on planes for the sole purpose of them taking things from A to B.

Years ago, you could get discounted flights to Europe where you couldn't check in any luggage. Why? That allowance was taken up by documents for various clients. This was usually quicker than any courier services at the time.

I've had friends who worked in the oil and gas industry. One story I was told was where parts were desperately needed to repair a drill bit on a gas platform. The best option? Someone would fly halfway around the world, drive to a particular factory, wait for the parts and then fly back. This was cheaper and faster than any courier service, even if you spent $10,000+ on the ticket.

This was exacerbated because a person with 200lb of machine parts could walk through customs where a shipment might get stuck in customs for weeks. And each day of non-operation cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Yes. I worry that I’m being misunderstood.

- It would be nice to improve our antiquated language. I’m thankful that other people have the time and expertise to work on this.

- Changing language by decree from our tech overlords is dystopian. Google in particular I don’t trust to act in good faith.

Both thoughts can be held simultaneously.
Several good points above.

Don't forget about the captive audience in airports, too. That kept CNN artificially in the public eye.
> It can be things like roads or safe drinking water.

In most rural areas the roads are maintained by the county outside the town, and people maintain their own drinking water using wells. You pay someone to drill you a new well if it runs dry, and you're responsible for maintaining your own pumping system and getting your water regularly tested and treated if necessary. I have no idea what you're on about... rural areas don't work the way you are describing, you've obviously never lived in a rural area.
Hear hear. Latinx, Filipinx - how dare the whites invent terminology to refer to disadvantaged minorities, using incorrect grammatical constructions or letters not even in the language of the people you refer to.

This is white cultural imperialism, full stop. Right or left, I don't care where it comes from - I know it when I smell it.
I think one of the hidden benefits of 45 degree bends is implicit organization.

I have zero experience with boards like what this TopoR router can create, but the sample images are chaos to my eyes and difficult to follow. That could just be what I'm used to seeing, however... but it looks like paint flung onto a canvas vs. highway lanes to me.
I call shenanigans. I have a Tesla. This would be REALLY hard to pull off. you have to be physically close to the car (like within 60 feet I think), you have to hold down a button, and as soon as the car senses something near it (inches) it shuts down. this is either fake, or set up intentionally done for lulz.
These are amazing for shipping bullets. Not loaded, but for reloading. My mailman hates me but they keep the costs down.
That's the preamble to the bill, not the the articles of the bill.
More examples: There is at least one Disney film that is not available anywhere (Song of the South; even eBay banned sale of used dvds. I saw this film as a child on I guess VHS).

"And yet an API is kinda desirable."

Yeah. however I may not live to see the day when that desire, which I agree is felt by 99.99% of the developer community (hell, even by 99.99% of the end user community because don't come and tell me that what that community is feeling isn't some sort of sense that "the developers just can't offer us any answers"), actually gets to be fulfilled.

After reading that some huge percentage of x86 instructions are basically never used I’ve often wondered if there’s much more performance that can be gleaned through knowing what to write and how the compiler will use it.
You'd agree that this creates a hypertechnical situations where slight changes in the hardware or software create undetectable situations for non-technical consumers. For example, we do not know for certain that Alexa devices never stream audio when they have not yet processed the wake word. A device that you test it on may have a different policy from a device sold a year from now, yet the Internet (archives) will say that, no, it doesn't listen.

Curious, which county do you live in?
From a CNBC story [1]:

“If the special district is dissolved, Orange and Osceola counties would have to provide the local services currently provided by Reedy Creek. And, the $105 million in revenue would disappear, meaning county and local taxpayers would be on the hook for part or all of the added costs.

…

“Reedy Creek has bond liabilities of between $1 billion and $1.7 billion, according to the district’s financial filings. Under Florida statute, if Reedy Creek is dissolved, those liabilities are transferred to the local governments — either Bay Lake or Lake Buena Vista, or more likely, Orange and Osceola counties.”

Years ago I read about the massive amount of grease (food waste from kitchens) in the London sewer system and thought ~what went wrong in our (my/Western/Euro-centric) culture where we don't use the fat?

Also, if animal fat is important for our health, that's another reason we don't scale well as a species. Seven billion humans and life on the planet continues to groan.

Ties in with the thread about how comicbook stores aren't kid-friendly; we (the relatively wealthy, globally) have been growing accustomed to having whatever sideshow we want as the main course in life. It's an easier life for a few of us in the short run, and an interesting experiment. [0]
