I was also initially surprised when I heard about caste based discrimination in USA. There are few points which helped me in understanding:
1) Personally a person may not have seen or heard of sexual harassment incidents. It doesn't mean "sexual harassment" doesn't exist.
2) Even if a lower caste person is not being discriminated, but if the person is feeling "uncomfortable" about revealing his/her caste it means that there is something wrong in the society which needs to be fixed. (very much like racism)

As such USA does much better job of telling about racism, then India does about casteism.

However India did a superb job of asking Dr.Ambedkar to write the constitution, by which the upper caste will abide. I am not aware of any other society which has said, "we believe in equality and will allow someone who was discriminated to make the rules by which we all will live".
I think this was originally a joke on a MIT Facebook page.
It should be easier to do in software. What's hard is, modelling the hardware accurately, getting the timing correct, AND getting everything performant enough to run at the original hardware speeds. It takes a beefy system to accurately emulate even SNES hardware at full speed. An FPGA can be programmed with accurate hardware models and run them all in parallel at the same speeds the original hardware ran at (up to a limit, I believe today it's somewhere in the low hundreds of MHz for a CPU). This allows for a closer approximation of the original hardware running at usable speeds.
Cost overruns, quality control issues, and the inability to manage large, industrial construction projects lasting a decade or more. I'm reminded of a quote I recently read for why the U.S. continues building aircraft carriers even we arguably no longer need them: it's so we can remember how to build them and keep all the supply chains in place. Nuclear power stations represent the limit for what private enterprise is capable of building. I've always we should have adopted the French model where there's a singular design everybody adheres to, it's approved and methodically modified and everybody in the industry knows how to build them. Instead ours are all snowflakes - which increases the complexity that much more.
To this day I still think Prince of Persia is one of the best videogames ever made.

Don't get me wrong, Doom and Wolf3D were impressive tech breakthroughs and I played and enjoyed the hell out of them. But unlike them, Prince of Persia is still a genuinely good and enjoyable game, with impressive animations.
Those Floridians should just take a page out the Dutch play book on how to handle sea water incursions and start building those dikes. Average sea water rise around FL is about 2.5 mm/year so they still have some time.

When all fails they can just move to Yakutat, AK which sees a yearly sea water level drop of 15.5 mm/year. Any other place around Alaska will do since the sea water level goes down everywhere (or the land goes up which is part of the reason for the sea level drop).
I worked at a data-warehouse company once that made incredibly good use of Jira for orchestrating their pipeline/data-flows. 80% of the purpose of the company was collecting, ingesting, & cleaning up a huge number of pretty dirty data-streams, often by calling people & having them send us files or sometimes disks. Some really rough data, & we had multiple automated & physical processes, & needed different people to sign off on different stages.

The whole system was built around Jira & performed wonderfully. Jira governed all the data-flow through the system. Each ingest was a ticket, and tickets would move from one stage to the next (Across the swim lanes) through over a dozen steps, some automated, some manual. Signing off was just the person with the role to move the ticket to the next column doing so. If the pipeline hit a snag, it turned red via a label & some js. Jira ran that company, was it's workflow engine, and it did a great job.

Not the day-to-day developer experience, but it left a huge mark on me; radically shifted how I view software, how I view workflows, made me rethink of Jira from a way to ship code into something far more generic & capable, if the need arises.
It's the same word for everyone once a day. So you just spoiled it for anyone who hadn't gotten it. Just FYI in case you want to edit.

I first read about 10-20 observations per feature in a statistical model (not ML), including interactions between features, in Frank Harrell's "Regression Modeling Strategies," an excellent book that many coming from the CS side of modeling would benefit greatly from studying.
What precisely did they do wrong? I like being able to select for photos of Friend 1 and stuff like that. Will that be going away in general?

My friends will consent, but how do I make sure that happens? We have shared albums that are just Me, Alice, and Barbara. I share pictures of Alice and Barbara, Alice shares pictures of me and Barbara, and Barbara shares pictures of me and Alice. That way, any time we take a photo of each other it just goes into our shared album.

I really like this feature and I want it to keep working.

> at least a factor in that decision anyway.

What were the other factors? Were the plummeting LCOE of renewables and storage part of it? Also what about the (previously low) price of natural gas?

Now that natural gas is expensive, it seems like keeping Diablo Canyon operational for another 20 years is back in the table if federal funds can be used to subsidize it:

Good for you. I care and maybe you should too, because there is a credibility cost to this kind of action. This ban is obviously purely performative, and though you may see value in performative actions like this, others are turned off by them which leads to distrust of institutions and non-compliance.
I’m convinced they ditched radar because they were having big supply chain constraints with radar, and then Musk convinced himself that Machine Vision with AI is the path forward anyway and decided to rip the bandaid off and address both issues at the same time. (& I really do think he believes that because he obsessed over the AI safety thing in the past in a way I think is unforced and a little silly and pretty clearly falsified at this point.) I do think radar ought to help, at least in principle. Although they probably can eventually get vision to be better than Vision+Radar used to be, although I STILL think it’d be better off also with radar (and perhaps a different, better kind of radar unit).

You know you can prepare for the interview?

Like write down 5-10 of these questions and answers that are somewhat common.

Write down some anecdote and more or less use the same all the time.

The same with telling about yourself write down 5-10 sentences and use that every time. Of course you probably have to update it from time to time but remember that you don't have to come up with everything on the spot.

You might not get exact same questions but if you have some things written down you can still start by rehearsed anecdote to get yourself going. Because if it is open ended question it might be more important to keep conversation going than "being correct" on your answer.

Other comments suggest a collar or TIPS which are both fine suggestions. I wouldn’t mess with options unless you know what you’re doing. I threw a bunch of extra cash into a TIPS etf with ticker “TIP”. I’m also selling puts on commodities futures, bought US energy stocks, and bought a house last year (as rent is skyrocketing and inflation will eat away at my debt). I STILL have a shitload of cash idk what to do with…

Some people like gold but I don’t get it personally. Don’t copy me I’m tolerating quite a bit of risk.
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. So when you do get UB from using unsafe you look at those places rather then your entire code base...

A lot of people don't seem to realize how easy it is to get UB in other languages. The C spec for example claimed not having a trailing newline at the end of a file was UB...

I also don't think this was an example of code that should compile but doesn't. Rusts' ownership rules make this task hard, but there are lots of people using doubly linked lists in rust... Yes they used unsafe code to do it, and yes it does compile .

The question was show us a case where the borrow checker was wrong.
As a Warthunder player myself, that is basically the reason. Most players like the game to be as realistic as possible, and some players really like a specific nation. When they see a vehicle under-performing, they try to dig up data and documents confirming so, which is then passed to the developers.

Problem is, for modern vehicles a lot of this info is classified, but some players seem to be persistent enough to get that info and try to use it.

> it will be replaced with zero carbon generation, including geothermal.

No. It will be replaced by gas, because we've pretty much tapped out on sources of geothermal and hydroelectric power, and wind/solar are intermittent. So the only thing that's left is gas or coal.

>which will consist both of "regular" lithium storage, and some newer less tested tech for longer duration storage.

No. Lithium for long-term grid scale storage (let's say, on the order of even a day, though in reality we need a few weeks of storage) is never going to work. Outside of pumped storage (for which you need the right geography), there are no other options.

You're going to be burning gas or coal if you shut down Nuclear. Germany is finding that out the hard way.

>I spend most of my hobby time researching energy, and find that nuclear proponents are often the lowest information contributors on forums, repeating dates talking points, and in the rare cases that they have data, it's far out of date.

In all your research around energy, did it ever strike you as odd that no region in the world is powered by renewables (outside of hydro and geothermal)? How about the fact that Germany, at the same time they are touting wind energy, is building multi-billion dollar pipelines to ship Russian gas for decades? Should raise some questions on the viability of solar and wind - no?
"Secure" is a much better word to discuss, because it's obviously a relative term that only has meaning against a threat model.

Automatic Emergency Braking. You cannot turn off AEB persistently.

> I'm not aware of any feature that requires me to accelerate or brake to prevent the car from stopping itself

Before the car emergency brakes, it will warn you via "Forward Collision Warning"; the screen will show the object it thinks you're about to hit in red. You can set this to "Late" to reduce false positives -- but if you do, you'll have less time to take action yourself. So now I set it to Early.

After a FCW, you have a small amount of time to do something before the car will do something for you. The M3 manual describes AEB here:

https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_us/GUID-8EA7EF1...

It also explains "Automatic Emergency Braking is always enabled when you start Model 3. To disable it for your current drive, touch Controls > Autopilot > Automatic Emergency Braking."

Doesn't it also have to handle things like windy roads and steep angle changes when going uphill? it seems you need both vision and radar to confirm things, eg:

- when on level ground approaching a steep hill, the radar might not know if the object directly in front of the car is just a continuation of the road or not

- when approaching a sharp curve in the road, is the object directly in front of the car actually in its path, or is it just on the side of the road
A 40 gallon tank can provide 2 showers per hour. You can get 80 gallon ones for residential use, larger than that is in commercial territory.

But that's still just 4 showers - if you have a bunch of people all getting ready for an event, and you also have laundry to do (which uses double what a shower uses, although takes longer) and run the dishwasher, etc.

It's not enough. You would need a truly mammoth tank.

Instead you have a large fire at the bottom, and heat the water almost as fast as you use it, then you don't run out.

A heat pump water heater would simply not work for a 6 person home in the north in the winter.

It is indeed. It's also possible to make it not easy (built it from scratch [1]) while implementing novel crypto (such as [2]) and in such a way that the creators have no way to profit from it (with pure linear emission that emits the vast majority of supply in later decades).

There was a time I ended up convincing my manager and things went my way.

There was a time my manager ended up convincing me and we did things their way.

There was a time we just couldn't agree and I ended up doing things their way because "they're the boss".

There was a time we ended up putting it to a sort of "vote" for the entire team.

There was a time we made a compromise we could both live with.

There was a time another team member jumped in with an even better solution that either of us thought of.

There was a time I ended up quitting my job because we didn't agree and he was a gigantic dick about it for no reason.

All these things actually happened over my career, and no single one accurately describes how I'd deal with a situation where I disagree with my manager. I'd generally answer it like that, although I'd leave that last one out for obvious reasons (there was also a lot of build-up/context to that one that would take ages to explain, and is hard to explain in the first place).

I was driving home the other day and heard on the radio that the LA city government implemented a ban on plastic utensils at city events. This is what happens when you cannot perform at your job and you just do anything which can be persuaded with little effort to show that you're not just fucking around all day at work. Watching local government operate is a sight to behold. I don't even know on what merits these people get elected. They are absolutely incapacitated and inadequate.
Please be more considerate. Sure a very unfortunate decision was made but there's a bunch of people working to offer you and I a true open source alternative to the VSCode ecosystem and I find it excessive and offensive to call that a "pretty shitty move".
Commercial and residential GHG emissions are significant. Yes we should absolutely be doing more to curb emissions from ag/industry, but we shouldn't pretend that it's not also worth addressing restaurants and homes.
It shouldn't be hard to make the actual bits themselves live on the blockchain. It's trivial to make values so that their hashes have certain bits set to 0 or 1 as you chose (as long as you only use a few bits per hash)...

You want pots to conduct heat, not contain it. The closest comparison is cast iron which has a large mass, so heat ebbs and flows from it slowly (and, is more consistent).

Insulation would mean you have an even harder time transferring heat to the pot, so it's not only worthless, it's actively bad.
> If you want to impose self-driving on everybody, it should be at least as good as the best drivers.

I would gladly have self-driving imposed on me if it were also imposed on drunks, teenagers, and the elderly. Sounds like a great trade-off.
They should give drivers a simple way to notify Tesla exactly when phantom breaking happens.

E.g. use the mic and when Tesla users say ‘Tesla phantom’ it would send the flagged data to a central repository to train against.

Regardless of your feelings towards Tesla, we need someone to figure out safe self driving before the effort is halted and humanity has to wait a century before a new generation tries again (like with nuclear tech today).
