Nor as far as I know are they in the asphalt industry, likely because they are focused on tech. I am sure some people out there find asphalt a moral issue (I personally dont) but I suspect they are not spraying some funding around in that industry because it isnt really of interest to them or their investors.

I agree with you. It may be a mental bug on my side, but me being aware that the noise is caused intentionally, it's easily avoidable, it costs very little effort for the person producing the noise to stop the noise, the person knows this, and nevertheless they continue to produce the noise, with completely disregard of people surrounding them, just makes the bad experience much worse.

If you can generate enough value in 2 hours to justify 500k a year then that's fine.
There’s a baseline issue here which is insurance companies and actuaries.

If you can afford to be outside the insurance system in the US you can get excellent care. That can include having tests done that aren’t covered by insurance and avoiding tests that an insurance company would normally require just for CYA reasons, but aren’t worth the risk.

But the incentives of the insurance-driven care are not aligned with optimal patient outcome.
I'll observe that that page contains the following text (inline and in the same font and size as the rest of the body text, not buried in a footnote somewhere):

Current Autopilot features require active driver supervision and do not make the vehicle autonomous.
More generally I had read on HN a while ago that this is the reason why doctors don't do a Full-body radiography/scan. Because many humans have bugs/anomalies that are mild/non-issues but are ambiguous and anxiety prone. The latter (and most salient reason tragically) is that the doctos by covering much more data, would become legally responsible for not seeing (e.g. a tumor found in a place that wasn't the tissue/region target of the original investigation)
I find those really sad and I want to have a whole body radio (and disclose that I take the anxiety cost willfully and that I abandon my right to sue the doctor for this specific radio), is it possible? Is there a place where this can be done?
I want to clarify that my checklist doesn't advocate for people to purchase lists. If someone is located in a jurisdiction that permits sending of unsolicited commercial mail, and they purchased a list then they should validate it. Validating also applies to contacts acquired through a single-opt in form (with a consent check) as some users will enter fake email address in order to download an ebook or free product. Though you can always send the download link in the email which forces people to use legitimate email address. But your point is well made, I should add a disclaimer, that users should comply with their countries laws and regulations when sending promotional email.
> Tesla is an awesome company with so much potential.

I used to think the same, but after some years, I came to the realisation that Tesla is just the Silicon Valley's idea of a car company. They have been releasing unfinished products with glaring quality defects for a while now, and they have overpromised almost since the very beginning.

I honestly can't wait for more car makers to go fully electric, so consumers have better choices.
I unjoined everything about that time. My home page is empty and I don't feel like I'm missing out.

Yup. It took a decade of ES updates to overcome these issues with Javascript. The falsy zero in JS has probably created more bugs in aggregate than any other language feature in history.

I do think CAF as it's currently implemented is unconstitutional, but this clause doesn't make CAF as an idea unconstitutional. The entire point (originally) was to secure assets that you have probable cause to believe are funding or proceeds from crime. So you find someone with a trash bag full of pills and $300k in cash in their trunk after a legal search, you need a process to handle that money.

I use Electron for DataStation [0]. Electron has builtin message passing between the UI layer and the main process. I built a small wrapper around this in TypeScript so I could have the messages be typechecked.

Within the main process I actually have it call a Go process to handle all the heavy lifting that goes on in DataStation like database queries, HTTP requests, etc. Communication between the Nodejs main process and the Go process just happens in temp files. All long-term data is stored in SQLite.

Happy to talk more about it if you want! My email is in my profile.

The USD was .96 : 1 the other day, for those of us who live in EU and get paid in USD it's a highly welcomed change, but things have gotten so much more expensive since the Russian Invasion. It was already pretty bad since COVID, but luckily it's made me drive less and be wiser about my expendable income: I'm not so much a saver as much as I'm a non-consumerist, I don't mind spending lots of money on high quality food, wine, and PC equipment I actually need etc...

I've given away 10000s worth of stuff over the years since I have moved between US/EU so many times that I just don't care about anything that I cannot bring in a backpack or at most 2 cases of luggage. Everything else is just an unnecessary burden.

But, the thing is and this can make all the difference, is that rent prices are locked in EU and much lower than in the US so net-net it works in our favour if we can secure multi-year leases with our landlords.

Long term, I think the EUR will eventually be at parity or just below to USD because the long-term consequences of Russia's invasion, which is forcing most nations to take defense budgets serious all while trying to figure out their energy sources and infrastructure which will lead to a multi-decade public spending scheme as many EU nations are only now starting to come out of COVID policies that have damaged so many industries.

Trademarks are industry specific. McDonalds has the rights to the likeness of Ronald McDonald in commercial transactions and marketing involving food, and nothing else.

Incidentally, this is why Apple Records, Apple Socks, and Apple Computer can all simultaneously exist.

To this day, Apple Computer pays a licensing fee to Apple Records for the existence of iTunes; because Apple Records has retained the trademark for the use of the word Apple in reference to music sales since before Steve Jobs ever touched a computer.

Traveling through Germany with regional trains was one of my favorite pastimes back in the 90s, but the prices have increased dramatically: The "Wochenendticket, which was valid either on Saturday or Sunday, started in 1995 costing around 11 EUR (inflation-adjusted), and ended costing 40 EUR in 2016 (also inflation-adjusted).

It would not. Traffic light detection arrived (for cars with the FSD package, it's not clear if this had it) in 2020. Autopilot on the car in question was limited to lanekeeping and collision avoidance with the vehicle in front.

One slightly reasonable common argument I hear for reduced medical diagnostics is: “we don’t have the resources; it’d overwhelm the medical system”. While this may be the case for some tests, there are probably a great number of tests that could be scaled to be done yearly on the whole population.
Can we agree that different people have different optimal working styles?

Some people get everything done first thing in the morning and are useless in the afternoons.

Some people can't get started until noon whatever their local time is.

Some people can commit to 10 or 12 hour days, and if so, it's not fair to ask them to work 5 days a week at that rate.

Some people work best in private offices, some at separated workstations, some at big collaborative tables, and some at home. Some do best standing, some walking, and some lying down -- all different from the ones who do best in a nice supportive chair or on a stool with no backrest. Some need an ergonomic keyboard, some need macros, some need a giant screen or 2 screens, or six. Some need screenreader software and some need speech-to-text.

The relevant questions:

* are they productive in some arrangement? I have seen a very very few people who seem to be always rearranging things and changing equipment and hours in a constant pursuit of distraction. The vast majority of people figure things out and settle into a steady state of productivity...

* is the nature of the work conducive to the desired arrangement? If the position requires customer or vendor contact or operations response, the coverage needs to be maintained (and handoffs need to occur smoothly).

* is the company culture amenable to alteration or accomodation? At one workplace, most of the people I worked with didn't come in until 11am and liked to schedule meetings at 6pm. I liked to leave around 5:30, having been there since 8 or so.

I think the issue in the repo explains it pretty well: the maintainer's machines were compromised, meaning that any commit under his name could have come from an attacker. It doesn't matter how big or small the diffs are when the person in control of the repo is malicious. Even signed commits would not be safe from this unless he was using a physical signing key (e.g. a yubikey)

There's definitely a lot of material that, I have to accept that "I don't have the math for it"[0].

But Matt does a pretty good job of breaking things down conceptually, so that even though you don't know the specifics, the broader picture is at least vaguely understandable. Even if it means you need to watch previous episodes to get the gist of other discussed concepts.

Even if this does work, I'd imagine there is a pretty high selection bias. Therapy is work. Journalling is work. Changing is work and really takes commitment. Taking a pill isn't so much work.

From the US constitution:

What was the probable cause supported by oath or affirmation?

FWIW, this case is considered to be notable because it is the first fatal car crash in which Tesla Autopilot was involved, and in which the driver faces felony charges. The charges were first announced in January [0]; today's news is that a judge is allowing it to go to trial.

In the submitted article, it says a Tesla engineer testified that Autopilot was activated "about 20 minutes before the crash". I assume that means it was active 20 minutes before, and into the moment of impact. If this case does actually reach trial, I guess it'll be interesting howhat the jury will be instructed in weighing the use of Autopilot against the allegation of "gross negligence"

Kotlin doesn't really have value classes, those are wrappers around primitive types.

That is the thing with guest languages, they cannot invent something that the plaform doesn't support, and if they indeed come up with lots of boilerplate code to fake features, they risk to become incompatible when the platform actually does provide similar features with incompatible semantics.

ctrl+f=rust: 0/0

I am shocked.
Agreed, largely because I find I'm able to efficiently use small amounts of extra time, but struggle to make productive use of an entire free day. Even working 30m or an hour less is enough to squeeze in a workout and some Anki reviews. I'm also hourly, so I can't help but assess whether the things I chose to do during that time were "worth it" compared to the compensation I missed out on.
I rather work 2-4 hours for even 6 days a week

I wouldn't. The problem with that schedule is that you never get a break. Every day is a work day. You're always thinking about work. You always have to spend time getting ready for work, spend time commuting, spend time (or money) getting lunch. You can't just chuck some stuff in a bad and disappear to a different country for a 3 day long weekend break.

The beauty of a 4 day week is that you don't have to think about work for 3 days a week. That gives you far more freedom than shorter work days.

I ski, hike, bike, do admin etc during the week, then have my weekends completely free for family.
No, their point is that reality is nuanced and complicated and in an attempt to be just and non capricious the legal system builds up complexity. But it still requires human judgement.
For it to come into effect, the cost of the concrete should be a major part of its usage. This may or may not be true in this case, since there's land costs and a lot of regulations

I think there's some kind of automatic title re-writing happening on HN, which sticks a question mark on the end of titles that contain the word "why" and "is".

One does not need a car to enjoy this. I live in a suburb of a big city and have to cross two zones to get to work.

Incentives have a powerful effect in healthcare:

- Physicians want to avoid getting sued
- Physicians want to get paid , just like everyone else.
- The payor in the system is not the patient, but a faraway entity removed from the situation on the ground.

In such instances, all 3 factors influence a decision.
If a decision to perform procedure X is close to 50/50 (test/no test)

Do you think "no test" will win ?

Now put that in the macro context of millions of patient visits.
now, since we are talking diagnostic testing, you may need to be tested at a hospital. So now, you are voluntarily exposing yourself to a hub of tired doctors/bureaucracy/germs.

That starts looking like madness , for sure
How do you understand the original intent?

> Civil forfeiture allows police to seize — and then keep or sell — any property they allege is involved in a crime. Owners need not ever be arrested or convicted of a crime for their cash, cars, or even real estate to be taken away permanently by the government.

--[1]

They don't need to prove or even charge you to take property from you. It's robbery.

The law needs to require a warrant issued by a judge to sieze the property. The property siezed needs to be stored as evidence, kept separate from other budget items in law enforcement organizations so that it cannot be used to cover expenditures (through auction or otherwise), be under the same sort of provisions as indefinitely holding individuals without charges, be returned in total when charges are not brought to trial or when a trial results in an acquittal, and the material should be subject to destruction after a guilty verdict and appeals are exhausted. Basically, the siezing organization shouldn't be able to use the material proceeds as part of the organizations' operating budgets at any time unless the material is voluntarily submitted by the convicted parties in lieu of levied fines after a conviction. It is evidence, not a funding source.

I'm not saying that the government should not be able to take illegitimately gained property from convicted criminals; but that the incentive to do so for material gains by the government without conviction is rife with the potential for abuse as things currently stand.
