I mean casinos don't try to hide it and people still plow money into them. I think that's a lot of crypto investor's (psychopathic) play, even if they don't really believe in the technology, they think (and they may be right) that they can fallback to running unregulated online casinos.

>Most projects I’ve worked on want all the components/widgets/thingies in one consistent style that works together for a cohesive overall experience. For such situations (which to me feel like the majority case) the cascade is the simplest tool.

This is the distinction to me. New methods in composing a page approach this differently: style consistency is maintained through dependencies and a build process rather than relying on context. To understand the styling I'm applying to a given HTML elemnt, I can look to the packages going into the build (just as a I do with other aspects of the code) rather than needing to understand every context my component could possibly be invoked within.

I could be wrong, last time I seriously used MacOS (for both personal/work uses) was Mojave. Either way, it's installing a lot more than just the 30mb of the git binary, so I learned my lesson and just installed all the GNU stuff with my package manager. Annoying to be sure, but somehow better than dealing with Apple's default way of handling it.
Mostly Java, Python, and a bit of Go here, also. If you're not sure what language to develop a back end service in, you'll rarely go wrong by picking Java. The JVM absolutely is rock solid. The number of libraries and frameworks available is amazing. If you stay way from heavy weight frameworks and use something leaner like Spring Boot or Dropwizard, you'll be fine.
> Everything they worked on they did better and faster and cleaner. They could often solve problems that other skilled people couldn't even get started on.

They may have actually closed tickets 10x faster (which I doubt), but that wasn't providing 10x the value to the company. If there was one person who was resolving 10x the issues of everyone else, that person would be a (very overworked) legend. And I doubt they could keep it up. But it isn't like the company they work for will make 10x the revenue or produce software that is ten times better than the previous version.

The person you're describing is good at their job. There's no need for a number. We don't describe fast food workers as "10x fry cooks", even if they are faster than everyone else in the kitchen.
Project dev here if anyone has any questions- on a technical side, the app is built with Unity WebGL wrapped in a vue.js wrapper. The JS side handles pulling the live data from the server and determines the best Unity scene to show given the parameters- time of day, weather at his last known coordinates, and the location itself.

I wrote a separate vue.js progressive web app that is installed on his phone so he can write updates while he's outside of cell coverage, and they sync when he has internet access again.

The backend is a Node server on an AWS EC2 instance that dumps all of his updates and hourly weather data into a postgres database. Everything is timestamped, so we will be able to replay the trip or add an interactive timeline when he's done.
I genuinely don‘t know, but if you can predict something bad will happen then the consequential behaviour should normally be quite clear - e.g. brake.
My wild guess is therefore that the auto-pilot will switch off and give you control if it has low confidence of the surrounding:
e.g. a sensor is broken, data from various sensors don‘t align (e.g. due to bad weather) or it knows it will enter a terrain for which it is less trained - going from high way to sub-urban terrain - or something similar.

Anyone from Mercedes here that can explain?
Edit: typo and please see other comment on Grandparent‘s comment for explanation.
For real, but relax because you’re actually agreeing with me mostly. If a trait is cross-cultural and not changing over time, then you’re arguing the opposite of what I said. I wasn’t claiming there are no differences, nor that all disparities are nurture, and I did explicitly say I was talking about traits that are changing and not cross-cultural, didn’t I? Traits that are culture-specific indicate nurture, traits that change over time indicate nurture, and traits that are shared globally and not changing indicate nature.

That said, the hypothesis you’re talking about has a low level and very specific meaning in the literature that does not extend directly to things like choice of profession. When you summarize it as “men are comparatively more interested in tools”, or “less interested in other people”, that is glossing over a lot of detail and can be completely misleading without context. It has little to no bearing on whether women like to write software or men like to be empathetic and supportive and social. The other thing it glosses over is the magnitude of the difference. Does comparatively more mean 10% more or does it mean 0.001% more? Leaving the magnitude of the difference out while saying one is more than the other is a way to imply the difference is larger than it really is.
> And there's still no sign of serious efforts to build charging infrastructure on a 'for the masses' scale, despite bans on new ICE cars planned for less than a decade from now.

Amsterdam has decent public charging infra. The best (and having biggest quantity) in Europe even. Heck even the Netherlands in its whole on its own accounts for most of the public charging points in Europe. Finding a public charing point is entirely possible in Amsterdam even though still a nuisance sometimes.

But go outside Amsterdam and the situation deteriorates exponentially. Outside Amsterdam I don't count on being able to charge most of the time. I went to a vacation park last month and they had one charging point for the entire park, with no alternative in a radius of 20 km. Outside the Netherlands I don't count on being able to charge at all.

This is a huge failure in foresight.
A Wi-Fi network scan involves listening for beacons on all Wi-Fi channels which involves a frequency change. Thus during the operation the Wi-Fi card essentially leaves your current frequency (and stops being able to transmit/receive packets) and scans all the other ones.

>...wind resources alone are sufficient to provide baseline power production

If I recall, the paper was based on wind data for 1 year. Unclear how much variability there is over time or will be in the future with climate change. The estimate is that over a wide enough area the occurrence of zero power hours is greatly reduced but it doesn't claim that wind is sufficient to provide baseline power production. We will see I guess.

>...Denmark already produces 55% of its electricity thanks to wind and targets 84% by 2035

The capacity factor for wind power is still low in Denmark. They are able to rely so much on wind because they still burn fossil fuels and fortunately the neighboring countries don't heavily rely on intermittent energy sources and can buffer Denmark's under and over supply of electricity. This works for Denmark, but not every country will be so lucky to have neighbors with nuclear and hydro capability. For Germany one estimate is that for it to rely only on solar and wind would require about 6,000 pumped storage plants which is literally 183 times their current capacity.
https://www.econstor.eu/bitstream/10419/144985/1/cesifo1_wp5...

If making more grid storage was cheap and easy, we would have built it decades ago. In order for everyone to only use intermittent energy sources though, it will be necessary.

>> the goal is really to decarbonize the grid

>It is a goal, not the (single) goal.

It is possible there will be some major advances in grid storage that will allow us to stop using fossil fuels to cover for the intermittent nature of wind and solar. In that case - great, problem solved! But... what if that doesn't pan out? The dangers we are facing in the coming decades are immense. If you were forced to choose, would you prefer the world to suffer through catastrophic climate change rather than use nuclear power?
What about getting a smart TV that respects you, because you paid a premium.

I have a Sharp/NEC c651q. The Raspberry Pi 3 Compute Module in it lets me watch media on the internet(newer models will accept the RPi4 CM).

the good thing is that when you see that Scrum process is broken and is not going to improve, that is as clear signal as it can get for a developer to quit to a better place.
Yes they are at the top of their game, but you can certainly map differences from the top end of the spectrum to another part of the spectrum.

The difference between Von Neuman and a 10x engineer is vast. However the Delta between Einstien and Von neumann vs. the Delta between a 10x engineer and a regular engineer is a mappable concept.

You can do this with the "spectrum" of numbers too.

|100010 - 1000000| = 10
| 10 - 0 | = 10

The delta is the same even though the first set of numbers is vastly larger then the second set. Maybe pretending those numbers are IQ points will help illustrate the concept better.

I would expect a 10x engineer to realize the above automatically without elaboration... jk.

So the main difference is that CI tests provide useful information, whereas automatically creating a ticket from a commit provides 0 useful information, it just duplicates data.

The other difference is that CI tests do actually run automatically. If you had to go into github and press "run tests" every time you make a PR, that is a waste of time.

But sure, if there was a server side hook that automatically created Jira tickets for PR's without tickets, then the entire thing is less annoying. I still think that's a net negative since it creates noise in Jira, but it's not as bad as forcing engineers to do automatable work.

I agree that my wording was not perfect, hopefully the extra explanation makes my point clearer.

For your interest: Brammo made the Empulse R, a fully electric motorcycle with a six-speed manual transmission.

https://www.wired.com/2012/08/brammo-empulse-r/
Yes totally.

On the other hand, you can also easily test use cases where the browser is “helping” you (for instance, you want to test that your backend didn’t accept an invalid email, but your HTML form has HTML5 validation that prevents a user to enter an invalid email). Or you want to test HttpsOnly cookie attributes. But it can’t do UI integration tests.
Software is constantly evolving, so any worldview based on “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is absent of reality when it comes to software.

My philosophy on most things is: if nobody else has done it, I’ll go first. I started compiling and bundling my Go applications as multi-platform universal binaries for macOS.

Last week, I spent a few hours learning how to build multi-architecture Docker images, and push them into Artifactory. That knowledge came in handy yesterday when one of the developers on another team got a new M1 Mac and could no longer build his Docker images.

Over winter break, I started putting together a build matrix for compiling RPMs, DEBs, and Alpine APKs for some software that some developers were building as part of their CI pipeline. We’ve been curious about the ARM-based EC2 Graviton instances for a while, and I only had to update a handful of lines of code to begin building arm64 versions of those same packages.

In short, necessity is the mother of invention. I enjoy inventing things. If nobody else has started adding support for arm64 to your internal pipelines, then you should go first.
"It's one of the things that doesn't make sense anymore, like cars with manual transmission."

Lost me already. I enjoy manual transmissions. The function they perform which makes sense anymore is being enjoyable.

And I'm allowed to thankyouverymuch. You have confused pointless to you with pointless.
First of all, what happened to techdirt being used as an 'unreliable' source on HN? So it's now reliable now because of this specific story? I still don't see a problem with it at all.

Secondly, this reminds me of YouTube's aggressive robots banning users and screeching the terms of service at them. I predict someone is going to say the exact same thing these platforms did when all those conservatives, associates etc were banned - 'XYZ is a private platform and they can choose to do business with whoever they want to according to their ToS agreed upon by every user'.

Problem is with both of them don't tell you why, so this is no different to how YouTube auto-bans its users which could be close to or is even possible illegal.

Where does it say 'free speech' in the ToS? With such platforms there is no such thing as free speech. Only something called 'Terms of Service'. I thought people on Twitter like this person also knew that. [0]

I guess they still don't.

No, many European cities have efficient public transit. Sometimes they have great inter-city rail services too.

Public transport is never likely to be effective in more rural areas, though.

> It strikes me that if all, or initially even a subset of, the disparate databases pushed a link between the universal ID

If it were this simple, one would think they would have done it already. One of the issues the NHS have is that they have so many disparate systems that don't know how to talk to each other. They're almost certainly aware of this and examining ways to unify them - after all, finding better technological solutions is why NHS Digital exists.
Yeah this is exactly it. But I think it's a good thing. It's a tradeoff between productivity and risk. It is productive but risky for "rockstars" to make big changes with very little consensus-seeking. Big changes are double edged, they have outsize impact, but it may be either positive or negative. So organizations rationally hedge that. The trick is to strike a good balance, giving up as little productivity as possible for the greatest reduction in risk. It's hard! Sometimes the right answer is just "empower one or a few people to do whatever they think best without ever seeking any buy in from anyone else", but not often. And "never let anyone do anything without a big slow sprawling committee giving permission" is essentially never the right answer. But there is lots of space in between these extremes!
> For Google it's cheaper to buy 2x as many nodes as it is to make Go gRPC 2x faster.

That is definitely not true if Google was using Go gRPC at any reasonable scale.

A more accurate conclusion to draw from it is MSFT is using C# gRPC at scale and Google isn't using Go gRPC at scale. Which in itself makes a lot more sense because C# is the bread and butter language at MSFT for most large network services and Go isn't at Google, it barely has any penetration compared to Java and C++ (which predictably have much much faster gRPC and PB implementations).
Domain knowledge definitely is a factor. I guess you can call the people with domain knowledge 10x engineers, but there is a different class of engineers who have raw intelligence that make them a class well above those with only domain knowledge.
>Of course they aren’t going to release actual evidence. The info was released to the press much later presumably after the Dutch hack was no longer useful.

No, the "evidence" was never released. If I'm mistaken, I'd be grateful if you provided a link. If you make an assertion and claim you have secret evidence that you can't show it is exactly the same as making as assertion with no evidence.
Same happens occasionally on my mac. And even if it doesn't stay on, it wakes up often enough to drain >50% overnight. My only machine to reliably sleep, wake up and power manage is Linux.
Yes, this adapter works well in my experience, too. A little clunky since Apple still hasn't updated it to native Thunderbolt 3 so it needs an adapter, but that doesn't really impact how it functions.

What is the alternative? In a situation where the software has detected an imminent and inevitable crash, the _only_ sensible action is to turn off self-driving and revert to 100% human control. I don’t see this action alone as Tesla attempting to avoid culpability.

The only exception to reverting to human control is if the software predicts there is a path to accident avoidance. In that case, the accident-avoiding action should be taken. That’s almost a tautology as it’s a given that FSD software will always _try_ to avoid accidents.

Culpability should be an entirely separate question. What are the expectations of use for a particular FSD software? Tesla is treading a fine line, but my understanding is that you are still expected to pay attention to the road and be ready to take control whenever using FSD.

Perhaps Tesla should also be modelling reaction times? If the time between reverting to human control and the moment of impact is too short, then you could argue the accident is a result of the software. However, what about the time between risk identification and impact time? Different people would identify a risk at different times. The same will be true for different self driving algorithms. FSD has a long tail problem. Very rare events are difficult to learn and test for. The best system we have for dealing with rare events is a human driver - so it’s more than reasonable to me to flip over control to drivers under these circumstances.

Huh. That sounds strikingly similar to the culture breakdowns I've observed be associated with Google - the whole focus on newness and landing features in the name of solving hard problems, as opposed to maintaining stuff. Apparently the feedback/peer review/bonus system is completely broken.

Look at the Toyota "Acceleration Gate" fiasco. Toyota paid billions(full amount isn't disclosed due to NDAs in hundreds of cases) because of poor software.
