No, that's excepted, since you are the subject of his stop, unless he has legitimate reason that your recording is interfering with his work, and he tells you to stop.

I think the new concept here is that he doesn't NEED a reason for within 8 feet for bystanders. Just the proximity is justifiable grounds for him to tell bystanders they have to stop or back up beyond 8 ft.

More like it's pointless to say you can't do X behavior but someone else can

You mostly need to outlaw all of it or someone will keep doing it. Going after smaller companies won't change anything

Because previously, the cop could define their personal "safety zone" as literally whatever - 20ft? 50ft? It wasn't defined in the law. Now it is - it's 8ft. If you're further away than 8ft then it cannot be argued that your filming was unlawful.
also, airtags arn't the only, and nowhere near the first, device that does this.

not to excuse apple, but this isn't a new or unique problem.
All they need to do is claim you are interfering with their law enforcement activity and they can say you can't record your own interaction.
Which can already be prevented using speed traps and speed limits.
Ask HN: Why do people get things when they “give up.”?
I recently found an extraordinary technical co-founder for my company, after years of trying every possible strategy. He's 100 times more creative, passionate, expert and an ideal fit for me personally and from a business perspective then others I'd met before, a friend I've known for years and seemingly popped back up out of the blue after I stopped trying and was ready to give up on the whole thing.

I've heard this advice of "give up" and it comes for years.

Give up on trying to find love and then you get the partner
Give up doing a million interviews and then you get the job
Give up trying to cure your alcoholic and your partner decides to go to AA on their own

I'm assuming this has something to do with the principal of "non-attachment" or not putting out a vibe of neediness, but it's still curious to me. Wondering if there's more to it than that.

Or possibly, it's just odds that a high percentage of people who had given up after trying really hard, got something. And then they wanted to share their story.

And is there any way to enforce this state? Seems pretty hard to give up on something as a means to get it, so there's an inherent paradox.
> don’t understand the reasoning

Prioritising limited enforcement resources based on harm minimisation.
This is an idea that people keep coming up with that seems cool in theory but in practice doesn't really work.

Ignoring the question about security compared to a normal password manager, the biggest practical issues are

1) Once you need to handle password changes and special password requirements (length/containing or not containing symbols), you end up having a list of exceptions that's similar to a password vault anyway (once you're synchronizing an encryption key and list of exceptions you might as well just use a vault-based password manager like Pass)

2) You can't see what sites you have "stored" passwords for (since there are no stored passwords). This means it can be hard to determine whether you have an account on a given site, and if your key is compromised you may not be able to determine all the sites you need to change the passwords for.

3) The password is also tied to the domain, so without a list of stored passwords it can be extremely confusing if a company switches domains without you realizing it or remembering what the previous domain was. Ideally this shouldn't happen a lot but it's not as infrequent as you would think among companies that have multiple brands if they change their sso system or something. (I guess this would also break fido so maybe companies will stop doing it if fido really catches on.)

4) You can't store information other than passwords. This is really annoying on sites where you have to create usernames if you don't/can't use the same username everywhere. You can put this information in the exception file from 1 but the more information you put there the less point there is in using a "vaultless" password manager.

I did actually use a vaultless password manager for a period in the past, but based on that experience I concluded that the downsides hugely outweigh any advantages and would not recommend that anyone use them.
I get this possibility.

The potential problem for the police that I’ve seen is that when there’s an arrest from some resisting person and a sympathetic crowd gathers around to record and voice some words of protest, it’s a chaotic situation. You have people going crazy hooting and hollering and it’s a bad situation to be in even if the cops are 100% doing the right thing by the book. I don’t know what’s the right distance, but I get that cops want to maintain some distance from crowds so they’re not swarmed.

In the end, I don’t know what can be done other than mandating personal recording equipment that can’t physically be switched off.

Redbean because it's a single file distributable program that runs on six operating systems. Nothing else comes close to being as simple.
I think you could make a pretty inexpensive Computer Science non-profit that is unaccredited but issued its own degree. No one cares about accreditation anyway. It would take a wealthy person to put their name on it, and be a struggle to get the first cohort off the ground, but once you get solid lecturers and a good reputation it would be self-fulfilling. You only need cheap laptops and a single room for the whole cohort. Otherwise it's knowledge transfer. If you paid the lecturers above-average salary and outsourced everything else, you could probably do it for under $5 million a year, which for a rich tech person is peanuts.
I gathered as much. What I really wanted to hear is what this person think should be done about it.
>>are you really going to spend 30k and a year of your free time

Are there no small claims courts where you live? Ombudmans? It really isn't a huge deal, nor is it very expensive. It's not 30k - more like $50. And not a year, usually few weeks at most.

>>? If the manufacturer says your warranty is void - it is.

No, it isn't, that's the whole point.
Right, populate trends have effects. That should go without saying.. but that’s not at all related to a country “not surviving”.

There are many times in life where change is needed even though that change creates trade offs and new problems to solve.

So really in the context of this thread the question should be, “which problem is easier to solve or less dire: climate change or gradual population stagnation?”

I can’t say I have the answer, but a stable society without requiring population growth does not seem off the table to me.
Also, the carved ornamental bits of classical and medieval architecture were mostly designed based on very different aesthetic sensibilities to our appreciation of how the stone looks after the centuries have worn the paint off...

We'd probably consider the original Greek temple decoration in its original state as looking a bit gaudy, and they'd probably consider the undressed stone or white paint of neoclassical architecture of the last couple of centuries to look unfinished.
Uber may be losing billions, but Travis Kalanick still has his.

> In the weeks leading up to [his] resignation, Kalanick sold off approximately 90% of his shares in Uber, for a profit of about $2.5 billion.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travis_Kalanick
> Considering that police training routinely would keep people 20 to 25 ft away codifying this minimum distance at 8 ft is actually a big win and is probably closer than what courts would allow should it be challenged.

This says nothing of either the constitutionality or propriety of keeping people 25 feet away, instead using it to bootstrap other limitations. The police are trained to do all sorts of absurd and patently unconstitutional things; the fact of that matter isn’t strong support for a law that further enables them to do so.
You are insufferably dense. This has nothing to do with economy, inclusivity or any other BS from the POTUS website. Energy production has to be ramped up and down to match utilization in order to keep the grid stable. That is much more difficult to do with renewables. You can't just turn up the wind speed to make turbines spin faster. I know this may be surprising, but when the grid voltage drops too much and fries everybody's electronics, people tend to get very pissed (in a very universally inclusive manner).
Sadly, this is normal for growing companies. Amazon lost year after year at some point.

Uber's CEO is still laughing their way to the bank.

This is great news. Middle class and the wealthy already tend to have options in school or tutoring if necessary. Poor people never had those options. If this succeeds this will give poor people the same options that wealthier people have had.

Yes, but if public transport is more efficient then there are less emmisssions to reduce in the first place.
> all it’s done is taken the elite students from all the surrounding school districts and concentrated them down into a stream of successful graduates

This creates a valuable learning enforcement and social network for those students.

> None of these options solve the really tough problem of educating the migrant students

But it improves outcomes for some students. At the same time, support for public funding is broadly maintained. The alternative is an increasing fraction of voters switching to private schooling. In the long run, that will undermine political support for public education entirely.

I think it can be useful to encourage (not require) this practice since auto-linking between Jira and GitHub/Gitlab is a nice feature. Jira can now show you what releases a given feature is deployed in, etc.

If you are in a regulated environment or selling to large enterprises you may find that having a SDLC policy of “no changes without ticket to track” is a more easily defensible control against unauthorized code changes (you’ll get asked about this in SOC2 and security questionnaires). The policy “anyone can make a change if they find a reviewer to approve” might not float.

Mandating ticket IDs can be really annoying though, for example if I want to make a few-line no-op refactor to clean up some code, I don’t want to have to create a ticket. So it’s definitely a tradeoff.
Yes. I have a copy of The Gift, and while I've yet to finish it, I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to understand the dynamics of OSS projects.

I totally tuned out that this is a Cloudflare repo. Some Googling turned up a USENIX slide deck that puts this into context:

https://www.usenix.org/sites/default/files/conference/protec...

Whereas the README uses URLs as the realm string, the slides uses realm strings like "root-password" or "ssh-v2" to derive keys from a seed stored in a UEFI variable.

I think the idea is that you can administer all of your servers with one master password, while each server derives different passwords locally from its own seed. If a given seed is compromised, rederive the passwords from a new seed (or reprovision the server from scratch). If your master password is compromised ... well, try not to let that happen.
So this process will be used in Apple CPUs in... 2025, mayne?
Honestly, I'm happy they resisted the pressure. Visiting Istanbul, and the taxis suck here (apparently the taxi drivers got Uber banned here)
I don't want Canada to be mediocre; but it is. It has amazing potential as the multicultural, less dysfunctional, more socially compassionate alternative North American state.

But we have -- since before our confederation -- been dominated by insular and mediocre monopoly interests. From the Northwest and Hudson's Bay Company to Rogers and Bell. From the Family Compact to the insular board rooms of Calgary's oil sector or Bay Street. A set of local self-connected classes that circle around the same elite private schools and family parties.

Yes, our health care system has advantages over the US. But it's a system heavily rationed and under crisis because of waves of abuse and a lack of will to reform. I've been waiting since February for an MRI for a knee injury I got skiing, and I only haven't ducked south to Buffalo to get it done in the US because I didn't have money coming in until recently.

That's a minor inconvenience though compared to the state of our emergency rooms right now.

I'm passionate about these issues because I think Canada can be way better, especially if the point of comparison is not the US as a whole; but individual states or various western European countries (esp Scandinavia)

The people who are currently working for Uber think working for Uber is a good deal. You might get similarly positive reviews from the buyers of scratcher lottery tickets.

There are a lot of articles from random websites saying that it is a good deal, and given the ease of placing such content I think we should be skeptical. Every time I see an article from a driver, who is not a pro blogger in the space, and who’s done the math, it is usually pretty negative to neutral.

https://www.quora.com/Is-driving-for-Uber-worth-the-wear-and...

It’s actually really hard to know if you’re making money when you take things like capital depreciation and opportunity cost into account, and sophisticated businesspeople make this mistake all the time. The average driver could easily be fooled until it’s too late.

It would be nice if capitalism did correct price discovery here but we’re dealing with a market which has been highly distorted, both from questionable government regulation and taxi monopolies AND from insane startup valuations and investment. The only accountability moment has been the public markets and even then it’s pretty mixed.

Uber has overwhelming power over their drivers and if it was actually a good deal for them it would be the first time in the history of labor relations that a company left
money on the table out of the goodness of their heart. Does Uber strike you as that company?

Yes I use ridesharing when I’m in the SFBA because there’s few other plausible ways to get around. I’m crossing my fingers the whole time that I’m not helping someone dig themselves deeper into a financial hole.

FTA:
let result = reqwest::blocking::get(url);

let response = match result {
Ok(res) => res,
Err(err) => return Err(err),
};

Is that truly idiomatic? I would think the Err(err) => return Err(err) line needlessly constructs a copy of result. Or is that necessary because of the borrow checker?

(Also, for those unfamiliar with it: reqwest is not a typo. See https://github.com/seanmonstar/reqwest)
I don't buy this, and I'm very much against the principle of having laws that don't specify how to achieve things. The result has been that for several decades manufacturers have been meeting emissions targets by plain manipulation, whether it's dieselgate or it's creating ECU maps tailored for the test driving cycle.

We have achieved only emissions reductions on paper, when we could have been mandating PHEVs and actually solving problems.

If you look back at when California was actually able to do something about their smog problem, it was through mandating specific technologies - first it was positive crankcase ventilation, then catalytic converters.

Plenty of people on the east coast, or at least in my area, seem to think his presidency is exactly what it said on the tin: basically unobjectionable, albeit kind of annoying.

> Traffic laws already limit how you are allowed to use your own car. This just prevents you from breaking the law. Your freedom ends where the freedom of another person to live a safe life begins.

There is a difference between a part in the car to limit how you use your own Car, and a speed limit on the road.

> Speeding cars make it a lot more difficult for other means of transport to share the road. In Europe many urban areas are limited to 30km/h (19mph). This allows sharing the street with bicycles, pedestrians and playing children. Speeding cars (speed limits are often seen as minimum speeds) make this impossible

This is an issue of enforcement, and its not being fixed because the EU is lazy.

Its as easy as installing speed traps and fines that hurt the drivers where it matters, the wallet.
Here you go: https://www.theverge.com/2019/5/17/18629214/tesla-autopilot-...

You could have saved yourself the trouble and done a Google search before writing all of that.

Obviously they didn’t fix the problem because it happened again. The problem wasn’t software it was hardware. Musk’s excuse was PEBCAW (problem exists between keyboard and wheel), but in reality it was his marketing and the failure of his products to live up to his own misleading hype.

And Musk did absolutely double down because he seems to have something to prove by eschewing LiDAR. The doubling down comes from the fact that the Model 3 could have corrected these issues but it didn’t. It made them worse by removing certain sensors. And again, the issue still isn’t fixed.

> They're the decisions of a person who's working toward the long term and thinks that saving lives in aggregate is a good thing to do even if in the process very few deaths of a different type are caused. Yes they're moral.

There are many such people working toward that goal, and those who are doing so earnestly aim to create a culture of safety. Musk is not one of these people. He has chosen to unleash beta quality software/machines with deficient sensor stacks onto an unsuspecting public, a public that has not agreed to his beta test. These cars are operating in stealth mode on public streets, when they should be clearly marked with flashing lights indicating that they are autonomous vehicles, as had been established as a common safety practice among autonomous car researchers for over a decade.

Musk threw out all of this and has caused literal deaths as a result. That’s on him. He ignores industry best practices for bragging rights, and he does so with no technical or engineering basis. There’s no ethical basis for it either, including your utilitarian “ends justify the means” take, because it’s quite clear at this point he will never even get to that end. He has boxed himself into a local maxima and his pride is preventing any advancement toward the safe future you imagine. Instead he’s stuck with machines that decapitated multiple people, and he can’t design one that won’t.

Musk and Tesla have been a giant step backwards for robot ethics in the industry. The whole world would be safer if he never even got the idea of autonomous cars in his brain. We were doing just fine developing safe autonomous vehicles without him. That better safer future you imagine will happen in spite of Musk, not because of him.
Roughly the same amount, I think? They seem to spend what they receive.

Your earlier comment is about an IT department "overwhelmed, overworked, under appreciated, and fed up with the BS" who also had no control over the patching installs anyway, and didn't care, and your conclusion is ""What's our exposure here? Can it wait a few days?" would be a reasonable thing to ask." of them? I can't see that adding "now every single patch forever is up for argument" as likely to improve such a situation.

Even in a competent and interested IT department, the change from "patch Tuesday, same time every month" to "now every patch is up for negotiation" seems like a non-trivial overhead, given that we assume it's desirable to install them all eventually. Exercising power for power's sake. One off asking "can we eat later today" is reasonable but if dinner is always inconvenient for someone then decide once "dinner is later" or "we eat separate dinners", don't have a dinnertime negotiation every day.
I wished Uber succeeded in my country. And by "succeeding" i mean being allowed to enter the market. Can't stand taxis.
There are roughly 350 million people in this country. It’s surprising the number of people killed by police isn’t higher. Everyone contextualizes police shootings as if they all happen in their local city, so the numbers seem large.

I want this number as small as possible while not over correcting so much that we have other negative consequences (violent crime increases).
Thank you! But, that seems to not say which religion it is?
