> And if we kill a few hundred or thousand innocent passengers and/or pedestrians along the way...

So you're just going to make up numbers to be outraged at?

As far as I know, no innocent passengers or pedestrians have been killed as a result of FSD. I imagine it would be big news as the (relatively few) Autopilot accident have been. It should be common sense to assume that FSD would be halted by Tesla themselves, or at least a government agency, if there were huge numbers of people dying.

We only have safe and cheap air travel and safe cars today because many thousands of people died beta testing them. This is basic history that everyone should know. When it comes to high speed transportation, there's simply no way to avoid significant risk while making significant progress. The best we can do is make intelligent trade offs, which is my entire point.
This is the bit that makes me so angry. Wages lag behind commodity prices and the correction always happens because businesses complain about labor costs (“muh jobs” despite us being at near full employment) and don’t let them catch up to CoL.

It’s infuriating how much the game is rigged against laborers.
Cars? No. Faster charging: yes. We just heard of a 360kW charger[1]. For a 100kWh pack that would be a 3.6C charge rate: if sustained that would be a 16m charge.

Right now no cars can charge at that rate.

For cars it just doesnt make sense. I'd love to see a like 30-60kW expansion bay pack standardized, something supplemental-ish to an integrated pack. But I doubt it. Packs are an interesting mix of skateboard flat packs & better integrated packs that fill in the space, that contour in to available space. Trying to imagine making a common interoperable swappable sognificantly sized standard is hard hard hard, but perhaps some subset could be standardized to good effect.

But pverall, I think there's a huge vast & colossal innovation target, it's just way smaller. Scooters bikes & otger devices- I fully believe a 1-6kWh standard for swappable systems makes hella hella sense. Gogoro plus. There's been a couple other notable battery alliances (Yamaha and...) that have hella promise. That every lawn tool, power tool & other device also defines it's own proprietary system is fallen & shit: again there should be standards, for general consumer sake, if less for ability to interchangably charge (under half a kWh who cares, atm). But scaling up, finding common means: it's to the short term disadvantage of companies, but the long term advantage of end users. And i think, longer term, a less controlled & more open market is a huge win. For far smaer.batyery sizes than cars, as discussed & focused upon here.

Because it is hyperbole.

Will this affect US wheat prices?

Yes, because they are priced on the global market.

Will it mean citizens of the US will not have enough wheat to eat?

No, generally it won't, because the US doesn't import wheat at all.

Pay attention to the articles, many of them confuse global supply with exports, as if all countries need to import everything they consume. That's not true. These fluctuations will affect people and prices but the reporting is often hyperbolic and incorrect.

The thing is, interpreted languages have a natural advantage vs. more performant, compiled ones when it comes to iteration speed (and also often ease of early deployment). I think the reason we see this is that while it would be great to pick a more performant language at the beginning, it may mean that your iteration speed is too slow and you simply don't survive as a company (run out of funding, can't pivot fast enough, etc.) In my mind, it's actually a very reasonable choice to start with what you think will be the most optimized for early developer productivity. Once you get to be a company worth tens of billions, you can just pay people to solve this problem for you.
I'm also a big fan of working while reclined. I am less fancy, and probably less ergonomic about it. I will sit on a recliner couch, or in the warm season I also sit on a zero gravity chair[0] outside, on my deck, in the shade. In both instances I sit with a pillow behind my back... to make the seat less deep / keep me propped up a bit more I guess?

FWIW, I probably sit 2-4 hours reclined on couch or recliner chair, 2 hours standing, 2 hours in traditional chair.

The article does address this, and points to the complexity with an example:

“One of the trickiest questions of all concerns Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a degenerative illness that starts in childhood. Screening for this would find it in six of every 100,000 children tested. But only a small number of these have forms of the disease that can currently be treated, and the drugs needed are not widely available. However, learning that one’s child has this disease could also allow children to join trials of new drugs.”

How do you evaluate diff tools, like this?

Right, but they can freeload off your work and sell a GPL project (or even sell just setting up the project), distributing source to users, but those users not publishing or doing anything with the code and you not getting modifications back nor any kind of financial support.

> Which is a problem you also have in C.

Personal opinion will differ, but after reading and working on both C and RAII-heavy C++ low level code for many years (though I don't do the C++ one anymore), the low level C code just feels like fresh air when auditing.[1] It's all so explicit. For high level, as mentioned initially, I feel the opposite, as the boilerplate gets in the way.

> Of course, you're always free to just not use RIAA in those specific contexts.

That's my point, is it not? RAII in high level code, not in low level code. I did not claim they have to be in different code bases.

And I am really not afraid of abstraction, my favorite language is Haskell. But that's so high level, and so far from the metal, that every function looks pure, and every value is lazy by default.

This situation sort-of landed in my lap. My older brother set up custom domain email with the family surname for himself, parents, and another sibling many years ago, but he died a couple of years ago, and as the only other techy person in the family, I've kind of taken on responsibility for these things, even though I don't use it myself.

> What followed was more NATO expansion, the US further undermining established European security frameworks [4] to degree that Russia would simply quit them out of protest.

So I decided to actually go to the treaty text here to figure out what it was that US/NATO supposedly violated and... I'm not actually seeing it.

This does seem to be a general pattern to me of Russia using US non-compliance with something it never agreed to as an excuse to not do things that Russia explicitly agreed to do. So forgive me if I'm not exactly sympathizing with Russia here.

> socialism could solve the problem of allocation of resources by throwing enough smart people at the problem

As I interpret the calculation problem, the unfortunate reality is that this isn't a case where you just have some complicated math problems that you could throw enough geniuses and computers at and could somehow come pretty close to solving. The problem according to this idea is that without market pricing, there's no basis for comparison even theoretically possible. In light of many competing societal needs, you have no clue if you're directing too many resources to produce orange juice or not directing enough resources to build tools. Resources are misallocated in a complex world and everything eventually grinds down.

I believe that one strategy the Soviet system tried in part to deal with the calculation problem was actually acquiring shopping catalogues from the West to try and use their market pricing as a calculation system.

One thing I think that Star Trek gets right is that socialism might work to produce a near-utopia if you have technology that produces near infinite matter and energy for close to free.
It’s not relay about how much “progress” we’ve made. It’s about employment, once we hit full employment there’s no more water you can squeeze from the rock.

Which is why I’m kinda shocked that the US isn’t more gung ho about immigration because as long as there’s more useful work to do, and there is, we can fuel growth with capital plus people.

I have never used photoshop and I still feel unsatisfied with GIMP. I have a long list of thoughts but the simplest one was the fact that moving/rotating/scaling a layer is 3 different tools. I was told a long time ago that there was work to merge them, years later the change comes out and it just groups the tools under one icon so you now have to right click first to select the tool you want. It's pretty much broken on a 4k display as well.

I do like gimp as a bit of a Swiss army knife program, it can do a lot of utility jobs like resizing, outlining, etc which can be hard in some of the more intuitive modern apps, but most of my work now is done on an app like Procreate and then I'll move to gimp for the final edits.

Some links on the topic of GPLv2, installation, tivo and GPLv3. The Conservancy position seems to be that GPLv2 requires allowing installation but that what Tivo did (breaking proprietary software when you modify GPL software) is allowed by both GPLv2 and GPLv3. The main reason the GPL exists is to give downstream users the right to run modified versions, so their interpretation of GPLv2 seems reasonable to me.

That’s exactly the problem; Google Docs’ use case is only “share a basic document and collaborate on the words.”

It’s not capable of creating precise or maintainable documents (e.g. no styles as others have mentioned), which is a very common need that it’s adjacent enough to that lots of people use it for and then it fails.

If the bombs fall, I don't think PC will be very useful, and putting effort into making sure you have one actually seems like it could do more harm than good.

OK, it's spoken for. A family friend wants it.
They will have a cost as well but there is also a lot more to be saved than just statistical life saved by straight causal death too. In fact most of the cost is probably around that as dying can be much cheaper to society than longterm healthcare and loss of QALY. At best so far you seem to have placed a solid argument it could be possible it was not be worth the opportunity cost to implement and I'm not sure adding more waiting and more process is really the proposal to solve that type of concern.

On the other hand in regards to why it's unreasonable to think the program will meaningfully affect the statistic you've only provided your opinion on it against the backing provided by the legislature. However weak that backing may seem it's still stronger than a counterclaim with no alternative backing at all.
Its interesting to note that the GPLv2 doesn't say anything about sharing back your code, only sharing forward your code to downstream users (who might or might not then share that code back upstream). So downstream users have the same access to software as upstream authors; that makes the SFC position seem much more consistent with the GPL than what Linus says.
