This is a fair point. The stats are likely to get worse over time as the Tesla fleet ages. Driving a vehicle a mile in an old (and likely poorly-serviced second hand) vehicle is more risky than driving a mile in a new Tesla. Or at least it ought to be.

Tesla's imaginary PR department engages in this sort of nonsense themselves. They compare their fleet's crash rate, for example, to all cars on the road in the US, at a time when the age of the average car on the road is the oldest it has ever been.

The average car on the road also isn't a well-optioned mid-luxury car with driver assistance aides.

It would be like BMW saying "our new BMW M-whatever is faster than 90% of cars on the road!" Uh, yes, but how fast is it compared to other new, similarly priced sports sedans?

When you compare Teslas against cars made in a similar time period, in a similar market space (mid luxury) which are much more likely to have driver assistance aides like emergency braking, lane departure warning / intervention, cross traffic warning, etc - Teslas have a much worse crash rate.
>Whatever breaks software environments on the desktop will also break them in a remote compute environment;

I was in agreement with you initially but then thinking about it - if it breaks remotely it most likely breaks for everyone in the same way, breaking locally may be all sorts of reasons - you could have several people broken at any time for different reasons. For some projects and companies having the remote setup might make sense for this reason.

Also, dependent on what you're doing you might need to run a bunch of services that your laptop isn't powerful enough to handle. This happened with my last project where there were 30+ microservices each in a docker container, 3 frontend environments in docker containers, all running in vagrant (vagrant was gotten rid of when the latest Docker release happened, but I didn't update to get the new experience cause my contract was running out)

Sometimes there were issues when I needed to work on several things together.
Before we started using it as a pejorative, the point of fire drills was to practice doing something so that when it really matters you don't have to try to improvise a solution on the spot.

There are teachable moments around how long it takes you to verify that this had nothing to do with the software update. And if it turns out to be the software, you're going to feel pretty dumb for sandbagging. And as unlikely as it is, there is a non-zero probability of someone going to jail. So don't just check it, invest in being able to check it.

It would be amazing to figure out how to make a Web IDE with a local shell that's inexpensive to run. Something that uses Spot instances with seamless migration between hosts.

if someone was found guilty, went to prison and served their sentence, I have trouble to characterize this as 'getting away with it' given that they, in the most literal sense imaginable, did not. This doesn't just do away with rehabilitation but even with punitive justice, because the punishment served is justified on the basis that the punished has afterwards repaid their debt to society.

If not even prison is sufficient we're firmly in the realm of tribal outcasts and I don't think that's generally speaking a popular form of justice among liberally minded software developers at conferences.

They use electric door openers because of the frameless windows. So when you open the door, it slides the window down by a couple of centimeters in order to clear the window seal cleanly.

As to why this requires a fully electric door opening mechanism, I don't really know. AFAIK, BMWs had mechanical door mechanisms in their frameless doors 20 years ago that did the exact same window sliding.

Taking a systems approach to cyber security
OP, you should try posting on Reddit if you haven’t already. There are subs where people can request money they desperately need and subs where people who are more familiar with homelessness can give better advice.

I recommend you get ear plugs if you haven’t already. Our environment is terribly loud and most people don’t realize how useful earplugs are. A pack costs like $5 but in your case I think they’d be worth it.

If you provide general location (like city, county, or state) and what you’ve already tried, maybe someone could direct you to more specific help like opportunities in your area or places where you can stay and people won’t rob you and treat you like shit.

Unfortunately I really don’t know much about homelessness except that it’s a vicious feedback loop (hard to get a job when you don’t have sleep food shelter security). Your story sounds reasonable and you have my sympathy, but I don’t have a solution.
"Society" is malleable. These registries are recent, and may be discarded. And "society" is different from place to place. Homosexual behavior, and consuming cannabis, were likewise barred from society too. The scarlet letter was for adultery but society has downgraded the penalty for that.

The subject matter here involves the sharpest reactions most people are prone to, I think, so most people involved here may agree with "society" on this one.
Violin and mandolin are indeed popular (and so is saxophone), but harmonium isn't. The top few hits on Youtube are either some sort of Hindustani/Carnatic fusion or solos by a hobbyist. I did find a few real performances though, but never seen it in real life. Caveat: I am not a trained musician myself, but quite a few family members are. The instruments I am used to seeing are mostly tamboori, veena, ghatam, mridangam, flute and violin and never harmonium.

However I stand corrected for having said "never".

This grew out from a much rantier (and worse) version of this article, which talked about the hurdles I faced when considering SPIR-V codegen for our research compiler (Thorin).

For a while I wanted to rewrite it, and ultimately to properly discuss what I wanted to discuss, I had to write something introductory in a much broader sense. So it sort of organically grew from there, and that's why the title is now a bit weird, but I plan for the rest of the series to continue with SPIR-V as some sort of central reference point.

It's fair to say DXIL suffers from this class of troubles too, there's a series themaister where he describes the awfulness of the story over there, but I don't work with DX and I wanted to make as few comments on that as possible to avoid saying something wrong and unverified.

> Figuring out the impact and likelihood was something that a product management org would normally devote the bulk of its time towards.

Here’s a question: why weren’t they devoting the bulk of their time to it? I’ve been in sessions like this as an engineer and they end up being incredibly productive and informative for everyone as to what the priorities actually are. These aren’t things that engineers are supposed to be doing better than product managers.

Why do product orgs _constantly_ fall on their faces when it comes to prioritization? My guess is that the job is highly politics centric and PMs have a hard time getting out of the way of their own aspirations or ego to let the progress take precedence.

And no this isn’t trite PM bashing. I would like organizations to re-evaluate the incentive structures of product owners and make them look more like tech stack performance metrics (literally, as in how much is our software getting out of the way of our customers usage and allowing them to be “productive”, whatever that term may mean for the company). Also, give product owners some credit for backing off on new features to make headway for tech debt pay down.

>In the US, I have never known a kind Christianity that espoused these ideas. The end, either heaven or hell (or purgatory), is everything to Christianity in the US, in my experience. Perhaps it used to be different here.

In the Orthodox Church, which I am member of, the accent is on the journey and on the transforming of the individual, not on the prize/punishment.

I live in Eastern Europe, but there are orthodox churches in US, like the Orthodox Church in America. You can go and visit at one, and see what's about. You can also chat with a priest or a monk while there.

I think that while most protestant, neo-protestant, episcopalian and even catholic churches steadily diluted the religion, the orthodox church try to stay true to the same initial truths the same ways as thousands of years ago.
Whatever thing you're working on, after you've come to understand how it all works, try to think about how to make it do the same things with a more compact representation, number of processes, or interface area.

Typically features have been incrementally added, most naturally by adding to the pre-existing design. It's rare that things get factored as thoroughly as possible. Doing so at every step is also inadvisable. The purpose of this exercise isn't to make the current system x% better, but rather to know what's being 'left on the table' that could be tidied-up in the future when a refactoring is due. With practice, you get good at noticing and revising designs in this manner while adding new capabilities paying refactoring costs incrementally.

What's even better is that the new smaller/simpler design is easier to explain, understand, document, and further adapt.

Another kind of exercise I do is think of all the steps/operations for the happy-path of an existing or new capability/feature in the context of where it fits in the most common use-case. List out the key operations/steps. See if there are any ways to reduce the number of steps or conditionals. This can often be achieved by making non-uniform things into uniform things. E.g. 'shapes' that can return their own bounding box, treating single or multiple things all as potentially multiple, etc--kind-of like programming with monads in a normal procedural language.

Simple doesn't come easy. Easy is doing the most obvious adjacent thing--usually the first thing that comes to mind. Simple is the last thing you can come up with because it's what's you get when there's nothing left to remove. i.e. "Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Imagine if you had to solder every chip you want to evaluate and write software for on a custom PCB first. The number of chips you can evaluate would be very small as it takes a month to just design the evaluation PCB. So instead chip vendors provide their own evaluation boards for development purposes so you can start writing software from day one and design the final production PCB at the same time.

What we call ARM SBCs are actually electronics development boards which ironically have been used in production as is.
At a previous job, we self hosted our version control software, and when it broke, you could practically hear the money being poured down the drain, as the SREs scrambled to figure out why and get us back into a working state. At least when things break locally, they (usually) don't break for everyone. I get that there are pros and cons to each pattern, but I agree that the remote dev crowd is glossing over the fact that these remote envs break too, and the impact is huge.

Not really. If it's actually successful, it will probably devolve into near total fragmentation.

So just imagine people more being isolated and lonely, with fewer points of connection. They used to entertain each other; then they consumed the same entertainment together; then they stopped sharing anything all, because it became so personalized.

The amount of overhead there is, on top of teaching and preparing materials is exorbitant. Managing TAs can be difficult as they are students and are still developing their technical skills. Cheating and grade grubbing are par for the course, but it seems to increase quadratically in the number of students rather than linearly. I think part of this has to do with misconceptions about curving.

Revising materials is more of a milestone. As technology advances, we should be teaching more up-to-date stuff, so we typically revise what we teach and then share that with other instructors. Sometimes that takes considerable work. In some positions, the program strictly restricts what is allowed to be taught. I typically stick to the core content for about 65% of the course, and then add in my own topics for the other 35%.
Automobile side windows are typically tempered glass, which as sibling noted shatters all at once into little chunks. BUT, increasingly they're laminated (like windshields) to avoid passenger ejection, which apparently (I didn't research thoroughly) also makes them much harder to break when escaping:

I'm in fact talking about post-Volta hardware there, but this is not about forward progress, I meant using __ballotsync() and getting it wrong (ie waiting on the __activemask() from outside an if, but only in one branch of the if, meaning some of the threads will never participate in the sync) will deadlock the GPU.

It's a powerful (since _different_ locations statically can sync with each other), but also risky abstraction to expose, as compared to GLSL where it's impossible to deadlock anything by using subgroup intrinsics.

Starlink orbits are far too low for kessler syndrome. Atmospheric drag would clear them out in <10 years, probably much less. In fact, Starlink satellites are far too numerous for anti-satellite weapons to be effective (at least, until countries decide it's worthwhile to start mass producing orbital-class rockets to attack enemy satellite constellations, which would almost certainly lead to a loss of their own satellites as well). Russia would love to be able to take out Starlink right now, but they can't.
IMO the issue with things like Prefect (and the sinking comment suggestion of Toil) is the inextricable coupling with Python.

We use Argo at my work, because we made the “unit of work” just a container that’s run by K8s. There isn’t a Python runtime around to run this stuff, and that’s a good thing.

Same as with Pulumi, I’ve seen what devs do when you let them write arbitrary code anywhere-you end up with code that lives everywhere, confusingly cuts across different infrastructural layers with wild-abandon. It becomes difficult to on-board, difficult to maintain, the blast radius becomes unknown, and just because it’s Python, it will randomly break in 6 months because nobody pinned a transient dependency.

YAML is awful. Argo could do with some trimming in its configs, but I’ll take it, and other “constrained” alternatives over arbitrary-code-in-Python-that-controls-resources-that-run-more-arbitrary code.

Thanks for the link. Doesn't appear to be very good yet, though.
is there data or a citation for those claims?
The quote is talking about plain pointers being dangerous.

And in turn, the claim above was that some languages have plain pointers that aren't dangerous.

Yes, you can put a pointer into an Option that can fail, but that's a different issue. The point is that "can fail" is not built directly into the pointer type, and you can use pointers that don't have that risk.

And to be clear, that claim is not directly addressing the issue of SQL null. It's a baseline discussion of what pointers actually imply by nature of being pointers. We can then better build upon that knowledge after we separate "refers to a data location" and "might not have contents" into separate attributes.
It is wild how heavily downvoted this is. Everything in this comment is correct (I also note none of the downvotes could be bothered to present any rebuttal to the claims).
Our of curiosity, what is a name that wouldn’t rapidly become lost in a morass of similar names?
I suspect you meant -c 440; I can’t find a variant of head(1) that has a -b operand on any Unix. Note that -c is not POSIX but does have widespread support. Notably missing on Solaris.

Fun fact, the -c usage comes from ksh, where head is a shell builtin.
