Half a decade is a long wait for entertainment, people will find other interests to replace them, like bass guitar - at which point there is less mind-space available for interactive entertainment. It's taken time for people to grow space for video games in their lives over ~40 years, the opposite can happen too , people had fun before video games.
Meh, those cost extra and don't really do analog in or PWM out and have dreadful response time. Plus you have to deal with i2c which adds complexity.

I suppose in this case you could do it in that roundabout way by stacking two of those for relay control since it's as basic as it gets.

Yes! In SF and other big free-country cities at 4am, some human drivers are high!

Sometimes human drivers are passed-out or suffering a health crisis. Sometimes they've left their vehicles blocking key rights-of-way as they go somewher else for many minutes.

In San Francisco, I've seen human-driver-unattended cars block light-rail trains many times. (I live not far from the N-Judah line, which also has a history of pedestrian bystanders physically moving cars to clear the road: https://www.munidiaries.com/2014/02/10/muni-riders-lift-car-...)

We need to judge autonomous car suboptimalities against real human drivers, with all their failures - not against idealized, unerring humans-at-their-best.

The term "grade inflation" includes an underlying presumption that GPAs are fungible and as a gentle reminder: they are not.

You can't directly compare the GPAs between schools or between course loads. Like so many other metrics in our lives, just because you can get a numerical output doesn't mean the metric is universally applicable or "objectively quantifiable" or "objectively comparable".
This is interesting in that it also demonstrates a strong market for really solid, up-to-date iOS developer documentation. The TOC indicates a really deep, modern approach, which I would appreciate if I were in the market. And leading with accessibility is a striking choice.
While it might be true given the exact numbers, it is not true in general that only a gun can cause such destruction; a vehicle can do just as much damage: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waukesha_Christmas_parade_atta...

> During the immediate of the ramming, five people were confirmed killed and forty-eight others were injured. The five dead were identified as four women and one man. Four of the dead were members of the Milwaukee Dancing Grannies, a dance group composed solely of grandmothers.

> Hospitals admitted 28 people, and nine were in critical condition. Seventeen children were among the wounded, three of whom remained hospitalized at Children's Wisconsin and listed in fair condition as of December 7. By November 23, the number of people reported injured had increased to 62 and the number of fatalities had increased to six after an eight-year-old child died at a hospital. The ages of the dead ranged from 8 to 81.

Or an airplane, if you count the 9/11 attacks. Or a knife: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagamihara_stabbings

> At 2:20 am on 26 July 2016, a man launched a knife attack at a center for the disabled people at Sagamihara, a town west of Tokyo, Japan. During the knife attack, 19 residents of the care center were killed, including nine men and ten women. An additional 26 people were wounded during the incident.

Yes, yes, guns allow for more lethal, more targeted, and more rapid destruction. But make no mistake, somebody armed with a machete could have entered a classroom and done just as much harm. Someone driving a car into a crowd of kids crossing the street can do just as much harm. Guns are not the root cause, nor are they an enabler of the behavior any more than any other device.

Many haven't... I've literally met people who claim they haven't seen any human feces in San Francisco or drug users and homeless people everywhere.

Then there's people like you who prefer the fair and balanced look. Like San Francisco is a city that has some problems just like any other city.

Are there really, truly any factually bad places to live in the world? Or is everything just a matter of opinion? Nothing is bad or good it's what each individual makes of it.

When is it that enough people believe in something that it's no longer an opinion but a fact? Some people may enjoy being punched in the face but enough people hate being punched in the face that this situation is considered to be factually just a shitty situation to be in, completely independent of opinion.

I'm saying enough people are talking shit about SF that SF is pretty much in the zone of being factually categorized as a shitty place to live. If it's not there yet, it's close enough where people need to acknowledge some big problems here that no other 1st world city has.
Good people but not just that. Good culture, good management, good business model / funding, and a good sprinkle of luck.

And what makes them high performing? What is the metric? Money?
It also seems to be impossible to use a keyfile for unlocking additional disks.
Interestingly the inflation in SF, and Bay in general is less than national average, and much less than hot areas like Miami.

I guess soon it will balance off
are you serious? It is irrefutable that the US is built on the genocide of an entire continent of people who lived here before settler colonialism. Hundreds of cultures, millions of people, hundreds of millions who would've been born but now never will be. These are basic facts
This map is proving my point. Even if SF is one step up from dead last, if we look at a complete year (2021) there's a HUGE difference between SF and Oakland. By comparison SF looks relatively safe, and having lived in both cities I can attest to that.

The rough parts of SF are a cakewalk compared to Oakland's. Not only that, but at least in SF the roughest parts tend to be pretty concentrated to a small area.

I didn't want to point out Oakland by name because I still think it's a pretty awesome city and visit it often. Seeing SF being singled out by the (social)media as a hellscape makes it pretty clear they're really unfamiliar with much of the SFBAY.

The truth is that most culturally significant cities have both good and bad parts to them.
You missing two key things you want from Harvard:

But if the human-away-from-vehicle blocks things for minutes, while the temporarily-confused-AI has a remote-operator fix the issue in 30 seconds, or others in the area find another solution even faster than in the unattended-car scenario... isn't the advantage, given the actual weighted occurrences, still for the autonomous car?
That's overcomplicated and unreliable.

Just use an Authenticator app.

But that doesn't solve the problem of needing an ID ther they can tie to everything else.
Where the blood alcohol limit is over 0.02%, the number of flat intersections converted to roundabouts is a similar number, people drive 4 ton trucks with licenses they got in cereal boxes then you simply don’t want to drive a really tiny car even if you could.

> I think Unpoly is more based the concept of "frames" that can be changed dynamically, so in some ways it is very similar to HTMX with it's updating fragments. But I'm assuming it is diffing the DOM rather than just replacing it as HTMX does.

That's fascinating, thanks for sharing. I will have to play around with Tetra. Based on your description, it certainly feels like, "Greetings. We are from the future." :-)

My experience with HTMX and Unpoly is limited to building three prototypes (once each in HTMX and Unpoly). Based on that:

* For Unpoly, you mark HTML elements that you want Unpoly to monitor/manipulate. Then some event happens (e.g. the user submits a form, clicks a link, etc.).

* Then Django returns the entire page, just like an old school, web 1.0 app.

* Finally, Unpoly looks at the entire page and finds the elements it's told to monitor/change. Then it swaps those elements in the DOM (if needed), which prevents a page reload.

You should look at Unpoly to see if it sparks any ideas. Its layers feature [0] in particular is really awesome. In the link below, it shows how to (from a high level) use layers to build something pretty complicated like Gmail, while keeping the back end code relatively simple using any SSR framework (Django, Rails, etc.).

San Francisco is already the second most densely populated city in the USA (the first being NYC). SF is actually already slightly more densely populated than Tokyo, which many like to tout as a mecha for de-regulated zoning.
Target was showing “zero Xboxes in stock, check store” in the app whilst I was staring at one on the shelf (which I bought, it’s a DVD player after all). I think they’ve figured part of it out.

I’ve also noticed that the app prices are often higher than the store shelf prices … even if you order for pickup. So I have my eye on them.

>Constructionism2016 Session 16: Plenary 4, Cynthia Solomon

>One of the funny things Marvin Minsky did in his younger days is that he spend time with another very famous computerist, Claude Shannon.

>And Claude Shannon and Marvin came up with The Most Useless Box In The World.

>It, uh, I have a video of somebody... What it is, is um, actually, Claude -- Marvin designed it, and Claud built it.

>And it's a box. You turn it on, and a hand comes out and shuts it off. It goes back in.

>People don't know, but that's Marvin and Claude Shannon. Claude Shannon was the father on information theory. That's what he did.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useless_machine

>The best-known "useless machines" are those inspired by Marvin Minsky's design, in which the device's sole function is to switch itself off by operating its own "off" switch. Their popularity has recently been raised by commercial success. More elaborate devices and some novelty toys, which have a more obvious function or entertainment value, have been based on these simple "useless machines". [...]

>The version of the useless machine that became famous in information theory (basically a box with a simple switch which, when turned "on", causes a hand or lever to appear from inside the box that switches the machine "off" before disappearing inside the box again) appears to have been invented by MIT professor and artificial intelligence pioneer Marvin Minsky, while he was a graduate student at Bell Labs in 1952. Minsky dubbed his invention the "ultimate machine", but that sense of the term did not catch on. The device has also been called the "Leave Me Alone Box".

>Minsky's mentor at Bell Labs, information theory pioneer Claude Shannon (who later also became an MIT professor), made his own versions of the machine. He kept one on his desk, where science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke saw it. Clarke later wrote, "There is something unspeakably sinister about a machine that does nothing—absolutely nothing—except switch itself off", and he was fascinated by the concept.

>Minsky also invented a "gravity machine" that would ring a bell if the gravitational constant were to change, a theoretical possibility that is not expected to occur in the foreseeable future.

Well financially speaking - it’s just icing on the cake, because I have a full time at job as an iOS developer at Buffer. We have four day work weeks, which has been huge in making any of this possible.

Marketing it mainly just through Twitter. I have written about iOS development for a long time, so I had somewhat of a small but established presence in that community. I’ve also done paid ads, sponsored podcasts and newsletters. Podcast sponsorships seem to have performed the best.

In terms of keeping fresh, that’s a great thought - but I because I spend so much time researching, reading docs, watching WWDC sessions, I feel more sharp than ever. I’m just aching a bit inside not being able to apply those lessons to my own apps. Once I finish the first version of all five books, I should be able to restore some balance there…I hope!

Without pre-publication editing, you're commenting on a blog entry - he's the only editor. While there's a value in that, I would prefer the traditional literature approach rather than blogs. While I have not reviewed in the last few years, I was always a bother for authors that did not test properly or show an awareness of the state of the art in what they were talking about.

HN and other sites have proven that internet-based commentary isn't really of scientific use. More just entertainment.
If there’s no vehicles or people directly behind the car, no traffic close enough to pose a danger, and a quick spot check confirms this, why would it take you longer than 5 seconds to reverse out of the way? You don’t need to back up into Canada or something, a short distance is enough to let another necessarily impatient vehicle pass. In the end the garbage truck moved, which is why the fire truck was “able to pass within 25 seconds of encountering the Cruise car”.

Well it generally stems from the source of the arguments as to why you don't just print money and pay everyone a living wage.

Because money is artificially kept scarce.

Do you think Amazon could maintain its warehouses if it didn't have desperate workers trying to make enough to survive? Shit no it couldn't.
So why do think the boss of that company who well let's be honest could probably be replaced quite easily compared to the warehouse workers (it's easy af to replace a workforce of one man but go try fill 10'000 positions at once) should get paid so much more than the workers literally making his company work? It'd take the AVG worker 3.5 lifetimes on 20 an hour to be compensated the same as one year of that CEO. Are you telling me that is acceptable? Your going to create individuals who have wealth that would take the AVG Joe 35 lifetimes to equal. Lol folks who simp for absurd pays to CEOs are legit bonkers. Your never going to earn that. Your kids and your kids kids are never going to earn that not for another 35 generations. So yeah how fair so you think that is? How equal is that? Creating a class of generational slaves and wealth imbalance that's set to last a few thousand years. Such sustainable business! Lol
You don't think self driving cars categorize and prioritize things?
The cars relying on external routing guidance, from cloud services similar to 'Google Maps' driving directions. An alert from emergency services can simply... remove roads from consideration, the same as is already routinely done when other accidents/traffic cause dynamic routing updates.

So, you don't even need to upgrade the autonomous vehicles, you just change the other, existing, flexible, proven system for recommending routes.
Not sure what are you laughing at. It's the nature of hard money, like bitcoin and gold. Their production cost is close to their market value, which means that you can acquire them only by mining or by trade, which both require work. No one can profit by creating them from thin air, like fiat money.
In the grand scheme of things, I was probably pretty good at math as I got through a rigorous Mech E program. But I struggled with the more math intensive classes (Fluids/Navier-Stokes) and I'm pretty sure I could have dealt with an undergrad in physics/math--much less a grad program--about as well as I could have flown by flapping my arms in the air. But things ended up fine.
And yet guns are more popular than ever, with millions of new gun owners every year and gun laws being rolled back in dozens of states. A new generation of safe, responsible gun owners across race and gender lines is blossoming all over the nation.

yw. Forgot to add they wrote a simulator for varying market conditions and they liked the $2M scenario best as they looked at sets of outcomes. So of course their threshold for their ideal levels is subjective.

$10K, do you mean as a place to start long-term investing? That makes sense. The person I mentioned above sees cash as a position and they heavily manage risk by using structure, so they are probably less cowboy if you look at the details. Like the cowboy riding in the air-cooled luxury train car, riding on the train's schedule...well, it's still the wild west. :-)

Your deviating from the point.

Anyone honestly working in cryptography will tell you that it will never be full proof, it's a game of delaying the inevitable.
The NSA knew that DES was vulnerable when it was first created! It still lasted what? 20 years? I wouldn't be surprised to here that AES has an "expiration date" either. SHA 256 has a predicted end date aswell, hense why SHA3 was created. It's not a game of finding the "perfect cryptogram to protect my message forever", that game will never be achieved.

But that fact does not mean that privacy is unimportant.

Block-chain is the only way to decentralize a ledger afaik. All those alt-coins out there just have a different way of doing the same thing. It's not that I think it's the best way to do things, but besides decentralizing the the banks themselves, is there any other way?
No, myself and thousands of other Americans legally manufacture firearms in their garage with very simple, commonplace tools. If you saved up a few months worth of aluminum cans, you could do it all from that, except for the barrel and a few springs.
The few weeks afterwards when the trash wasn’t getting picked up made me hightail it to Mobile for the duration.
Do you also want a city that borders the ocean and is also a 5 hour drive to one of the most beautiful national parks in the country? I think you might be out of luck.
I think one thing that keeps me in the Bay Area is economic opportunity, although it remains to be seen how larger macro-economic forces will effect this.

For the last decade though, if you write code in the Bay Area, there is just this massive backstop of companies looking to hire. I've lived here since 2011 and worked for all of 3 startups that entire time, so this isn't so much about job hopping. Instead, because of all the competition for talent in the area you get to enjoy a degree of job security, high pay, and benefits that are pretty nice. It is also a major relief to know that if your company does have to let you go for whatever reason or you just get sick of the work you are doing and want to quit, there are a ton of other places hiring.

With remote work I imagine being physically close to the Bay Area is less of a requirement, but it seems like there is some amount of drive to get people back into offices, so we will see how long that remains viable.

This is really the main reason I stay in the Bay Area, I moved out to the Greater East Bay a few years back and was able to find a nice house in a nice enough area for a reasonable price.

Having easy access to so many employers provides a peace of mind and an implicit pile of leverage that's pretty great.
Honestly, me neither. There is likely some selection bias going on however. It's difficult to say how many expensive buildings are missing from that list.

Is Snort useful at all on a home network level? E.g. for detecting if some insecure embedded device on the network has been hacked and is spamming all the other devices with spray-and-prays?
