This is an awesome experiment. Actually there may be a very simple explanation of why this model is more truthful than other language models. There is a particular way of talking when we lie. We use the passive voice more frequently, we focus on the properties of things rather than get to the point and many other tricks.

But the thing is, that usually we tend to forget what lies were stated as truths at the past, and there comes the time we start contradicting ourselves. The lies are forgotten by everyone after a while. So the language model it does not get too hang up to the lies, because they are not repeated as much.

This particular channel may be more truthful because they are mostly anonymous posters, and anonymity makes lying a little bit more useless i guess. Even if a small percentage of the posts are more truthful, say 10% or 20%, that's magnified by the machine.
Regen in Prius managed by your foot pressure on brake pedal. I wonder why would anybody do it differently.
Well, if not being allowed to exploit your workers hurts consumers, then either consumers have to pay more, or your business shouldn't exist. In fact, no business should exist that has "exploit your workers" as a necessary part of the business model.
I have a 2021 Subaru Legacy and I've never had the phantom breaking as well. I've put about 10k miles on the car with at least 7k of it being on adaptive cruise. All of the miles have been on country roads with hills, sharp turns, traffic, inclement weather, etc.

I second the suggestion to get it checked.
You are forgetting how much of the heat coming from the gas stove is simply heating the air around the pot instead of heating what is in the pot. The efficiency of gas stoves is pretty crap-tastic. Induction heats only the pot, and thus heats only what is inside.

Exactly; this is why brake-checking is illegal. The person behind you has a responsibility to keep a safe distance, but you also have a responsibility to not drive like a lunatic. If the dash-cam footage shows you brake-checking somebody right before the crash, don't expect to get off scot-free by blaming the guy you were fucking with.

Air travel will get more carbon efficient. The whole idea behind a carbon tax is that we start low and hike gradually, giving the market time to respond (rather than flipping a switch and raising ticket prices 7% overnight). Of course, the longer we wait the faster we have to hike prices (the timeline compresses), so it's hard to feel bad for industries that have resisted carbon taxes for the last decades. Moreover, if climate science is correct, the consequences of doing nothing far outweigh the loss of cheap air travel (of course, that's just a worst-case scenario; we absolutely don't have to choose between those two outcomes).

A word processor and spreadsheet is necessary. Everything else is optional.

The question isn't "is it neat?" The question is does the money expended save more than if a human performed the equivalent labor? Does Confluence and Jira save more money than having a human librarian and project manager manually tracking the status of projects?

There will always be room for "neat" software that replaces necessary human labor costs. If you can allow a team of 5 to do what used to take a team of 10, you will be able to sell that for the equivalent of the fully loaded cost of 3-4 people.

Do that for enough people and you have a successful business.

It's staffing, but it's a little more complex than just COVID/defund the police. This has been a long time coming. The Seattle City Council and previous mayors have spent many years prior fucking around with public safety. Sawant was calling the police "murderers" well before COVID. If you're a police officer, why would you bother with a city council that is hostile to you and citizens that go along with that enable that? Police officers were already fleeing to the suburbs where they have been paid as well, safer, and governments are slightly more sane.

It finally took homeless camps everywhere and random violence/theft to move into the whiter areas of the city for people to take notice.

I have a "legacy" Model X which still has the radar fitted. For now, autopilot still uses the radar on these models, and I get little or no phantom breaking. Probably only once a month, or less, and I drive on autopilot most days.

I fear the update that disables my radar. (And actually I'm planning to replace the Model X this year for something other than a Tesla, because of the awful service experience.)
No disrespect to Ralph Nader, but cars claim about the same number of lives (more in most years) than they did then. Sure, many _many_ lives are saved by seatbelts, but car-centric inner-cities combined with the psychology of invincibility for the people inside the vehicle are a recipe for dead kids in city blocks, and it's an absolute blood bath out there.

Sure, there are fewer deaths per capita, and fewer deaths per mile traveled, but the chances of a fatality occurring at a given intersection haven't budged except in places where car-centric infra has been removed or scaled back.

I agree with this 100%. To compound this issue is the fact that when I, as a person, make a mistake on the road, the problem space is limited to me.

When a self driving car makes a mistake, every other vehicle on the road running that software/hardware is implicated as well. Imagine having to decide if all humans should have their license suspended until root cause analysis can be completed every single time a human is involved in a car crash. That is the problem we will need to grapple with when it comes to self driving cars.

>Unsafe in rust means you are skirting guarantees given by the language. It doesn't mean the code will blow up when run. It's just an explicit way to tell the compiler you are operating at your own risk.

I'm fully aware of this. That's why I put 'unsafe' in quotes.

However, it's surely fair to point out that you can't implement doubly linked lists or mutable iterators in Rust without giving up Rust's usual guarantee of memory safety. If this guarantee is not actually that big of a deal, as you appear to be suggesting, then why all the hype about it from Rust advocates?

>The question was show us a case where the borrow checker was wrong.

No, that was not the question. OP just asked for 'rejected code that should work perfectly fine'. There are of course loads of examples of such code. Perhaps the simplest is the case of mutable iterators that I mentioned. A correctly implemented mutable iterator is perfectly safe, but rejected by Rust's borrow checker unless certain parts of the implementation are marked unsafe.
Gravity is not, in fact, the attraction of lesser mass to greater mass. Gravity is the repulsion of lesser mass by greater mass.

In the case of the Earth, this means you are repulsed toward the Earth by the weight of the column of space "above" you, and are only prevented from falling through the Earth by its density. The Earth is relatively equally displaced by the column surrounding it, meaning you do not notice this effect.

Gravity seems to come in waves because all things in the relevant column are moving, but the shifting of mass is almost unimportant to your perception because it is such a small value. The magnitude and frequency is such that it goes unnoticed to all but the most sensitive equipment.

.... completely no evidence available, but, it sounds kind of reasonable.
Even when not trained if you are basically looking to "repeat" a motion, you can get a reasonably consistent flip. A lot of folks think these far out results are just statistics, but statistics actually tells us how incredibly rare this would be.

Going your way is a very ineffective solution that will take too long to get into effect (convince population that will make politicians realize this is what gets them elected, and over time regulations come), and the damage needs to be addressed now

I know, right? The nanny state is ridiculous, next they'll ban lead paint in nurseries.

But more seriously, regulations should be driven by the amount of harm the regulation would prevent, the costs/side-effects of the regulation, etc... I'm unsure where gas stoves fall on that spectrum without more research.
In California (which this article and thread are about) agriculture is actually up in terms of productivity and down in terms of water utilization. The problem is the solvency of Ag's GDP value on the state register, which went from 5% to 2%, is not up. I'm not sure agriculture is really affected as much by fossil fuels as it is by economic pressure and water cost/benefit ratios given the economic pressure.

Well, there are different failure modes that we care about too. People think about first-party losses much differently than third-party losses. And, people currently take actions to mitigate those losses. Preventable crashes can be avoidable, by avoiding the situations in which humans engage in dangerous behavior. And the factor of control is why people are more comfortable with that failure mode, than a failure mode which may be more unpredictable.

For instance: If I'm worried about killing my child in a first-party drunk driving crash, the average crash rate is irrelevant, because I can decrease the risk to zero by not drinking and driving. If I'm worried about third-party risk of a drunk driving crash, I can greatly mitigate that risk by choosing when and where I drive with my child in the car.

> No amount of "Well, the number say this truck is statistically safer when driven by a computer..." will move the needle on that

And I think the reason for that is that people subconsciously understand that the people who would be interested in (or financially capable of) purchasing an autonomous vehicle for the safety features are the same people who have lower accident rates than average.
A large reason electric (restive and induction) are seen as inferior to gas is that portable units are limited to 120v/15a (few are 20a) so the total possible power is technically less than a gas stove; <1800w vs >2800w effective. However, gas stoves are very inefficient so in reality it's not a huge problem and 240v electric stoves could even be hotter (~4000w) than a gas stove.

> Xie estimates that he pays around $500 to $700 a month on gas, and about $1,200 on electricity.

Since gas stoves are so inefficient, natural gas should provide no cost benefit. It's likely that much of that electricity use from higher AC and refrigerator compressors demand due to gas stoves heating up the interior space (commercial kitchens can get very hot).

It's interesting that Korean BBQ is mentioned since I already see many places using induction stoves for obvious safety reasons; customers are cooking their own food. Hot pot and Hibachi places also seem to either be using electric as well. IME doing KBBQ at home with a portable induction stove and it works very well.

I think overall its ideal for even commercial kitchens to move to electric, it would greatly improve indoor air quality and likely make the kitchen environment more comfortable due to less waste heat. That said there are some cases where having an actual flame is important so it would be nice to see some solution for those dishes - perhaps larger portable propane tanks?

The problem isn't that there's a recession coming, the problem is that there hasn't been one for a long long time.

Evolution had the same problem actually. Due to the way it works it took absolutely ages to evolve a way to recycle lignin, a problem that is now giving us issues millions of years after.

We're supposed to be smart though. If we'd not been scared of an occasional recession cleaning out various industries, we'd have more resilient businesses.
