You're going to be thrown out in some additive vector of where you were going and where the other car influenced your car to go, depending on what other impacts you're getting pre-ejection. That can easily be into another car, into other traffic, etc.
Well, the great thing about the Framework is if you scuff up the wrist rests, you can probably order a new chassis.
If cars were invented today, they would be illegal.

We give 16-year-olds minimal training, then entrust them with the control of a 3,000 lb. weapon for the rest of their lives. You can be an awful driver, but even if you get into multiple accidents, your license will rarely be taken away.

If cars had not been invented, we would have designed 20th century cities around people, rather than the automobile. We'd have a robust public transportation network that would all but eliminate the need for cars, at least in cities and suburbs (see Japan).

Between the death toll and the alienation from living in places designed for cars, I'm not sure if the car has been a net positive for society.

I dont think most people are arguing that machines will replace everyone anytime soon - it is that they will replace a huge portion of people. If one person can do the job of 10,000 by being the tweaker / approver of an advanced AI that is still 9,999 jobs eliminated. That might be hyperbole (you still probably will need people to support that system)
Depends on the company. I took three months with current company which took a month for a background check. I gave notice before getting this position as I was done and wanted time off.
It would probably be tax deductible, depending of course on variables not discussed yet.
I wouldn’t consider having the website be designed to let you know that there’s more content a “custom solution”.

As for the rest of your comment. This really is a matter of preference. You’ve built a habit to look at the scroll bar. I’ve built a habit to try scrolling and see what happens.
> 1. "Wow, have you read all these books?" means "I never read books."

There's a short story, I think in one of my New Hugo Winners volumes, in which a character responds to that question with something like, "who the hell wants a library full of books they've already read?!"

But yes, that's definitely the kind of question only someone who doesn't read much would ask. A great tell.

[EDIT] Or, I guess, maybe a kid from a certain kind of background, reader or not, which I think might have been the case in that story, but from an adult? Yeah, pretty good signal.

So what’s the deal on realistically being able to generate something based on Figma? For example - if I have a custom UI framework can I generate a skeleton my front end team can use?

And second - how much “behavior” can we write in to the generated artifacts?

Not the same thing, but close enough.
Neither the post you respond to nor anyone I've spoken with make claim that assault rifles represent a significant portion of gun deaths. That politicians gravitate to 'banning assault rifles' is lazy governance. Much tighter regulation of all guns would be making a difference.
if the people at your work, or the job itself, are bumming you out, you should get a new job.

in my experience this sort of thing is rarely fixed, even if attempts are made to fix it. (sometimes the fixes are worse than the problem.)

they will try to make you stay because leaving after such a short stint makes them look bad, but if you stay and then things don't work out (for the reasons you have already identified), it's you who will look bad, even if you wanted to leave in the first place.

seeing that this bad look could damage your career, you are correct in feeling anxiety. you should leave and get a new job before said anxiety turns into regret.
my personal theory is that people's overconfidence in their ability as drivers and underestimating the risk of driving ends up making the process much safer than if people were more grounded in reality
Out of curiousity, what would the HN crowd recommend for the tech stack for a project like this? They had Angular, Mulesoft, and some other cruft I'm sure thrown in. What technology/languages/frameworks would work well enough to support Hertz and their subsidiaries for now and into the future?

Here's what I'd choose as someone who hasn't done something like this in his 25 year career: Some front-end framework (is React still relevant?), Java/SpringBoot, Kubernetes/KNative, some mesh, some back-end mainframe integration with their legacy systems...

Try 10,000 times more and you’d be closer, but that’s probably still an underestimate.
It happens all the time. People regularly speed up when passing to limit time in oncoming traffic lanes.

Limiting speed in such a scenario could reasonably lead to a fatal accident.
Entirely feasible if there are a multitude of teams at Hertz with hands in the cookie jar.

Trying to coordinate between 10+ managers of varying seniority (in a legacy company who's struggling with tech) and prevent scope creep at the same time is an absolute nightmare scenario.

I'd hate to be the Business Analyst in charge of that.
The thing is, there's no gaurantee that google nor microsoft nor apple do anything more. With products like nextcloud, at least you can see exactly what's going on.

We already know google, microsoft and apple have unfettered access to your data too. With self hosting, at least I have a chance of knowing when my data's being monitored & I can choose increasingly severe security around that system. The big players can only offer promises with little to no way for us to verify the truth of any one of their statements.

So, unless the big players offer e2ee as a default, it's best to assume the worst from them. With nextcloud it's far less necessary if you're rolling your own (but it supports a form of encryption anyhow)

As somebody who feels really guilty for letting a project go even 30% beyond an estimate, this was a comforting read for sure.

I build websites for small-scale clients, often who are just starting out. After a lot of hard lessons, I make sure to communicate as soon as I can even when it was just a “soft” deadline. I had a project go 40% over the estimate and had to charge the client for it to keep my bills paid (it mostly due to scope creep, managed poorly).

After reading this post, it feels like those lessons are especially worthwhile as the business world comes to realize the value in the boutique/freelance contractors. Also helps me get over the mistakes, which weren’t nearly as bad in comparison.

My first job billed my time at $200/hr and my salary was $28k. I was 21 and they would literally put me on projects solo. Once a client was on retainer the execs disappeared and let fresh college grads do the work, it’s a total scam.

I tried another agency job 2 years later and it was exactly the same. Changed again a year later, and the same story. Had enough experience to quit and go freelance at that point.
ML is not that good at predicting.
The question you responded to was asking how one proves sincere intent. You said you don't need to in the US. This article is about a US judge basing a decision on a phenomenon in New Zealand law regarding a New Zealand company wanting information to sue people in New Zealand; any answer limited to "yeah, that doesn't apply in US law" doesn't answer the question.

So, for anyone with experience in New Zealand law: when this New Zealand company sues people in a New Zealand court of law (as is discussed in TFA), how would the defendants go about proving they sincerely believed something?
You played a game without really understanding the stakes or the rules. It's a bit tricky to go back years later and to demand to re-negotiate, if you succeed then all the others who are in the same situation will want to re-negotiate as well, even the ones who did understand the stakes and the rules.

If you were given the option to buy in at the same price (anti-dilution clause, not sure if you had one) and you let that go that is your problem, not theirs and definitely not the later investors, everybody diluted in those rounds including you.

Assuming your stock has already vested you could try to make a play for the part that has not vested yet where your BATNA is to walk and find another employer, this time forewarned about some of the aspects of equity plays. $300K (the value of your equity at this point in time, assuming it has vested) adds effectively $150K to your pay for the last 2 years with the big question of whether there will ever be a market and whether or not that valuation estimate is accurate or not. The IPO may never happen (tricky market) and so you may end up holding that stock but in a way that may make trading it very hard. And then there are still the various tax angles to take into consideration.

Best of luck!
Moral judgements aside, how is what Ishan Wahi did legally different than Nancy Pelosi purchasing millions worth of Nvidia stock ahead of the CHIPS Act vote? Is it a private/public sector difference?
I think politicians fixate on rifles because angry constituents armed with rifles are what they personally fear the most. It's not about the general population stats at all. They don't really care about interpersonal/domestic violence or random street crime being committed with pawn shop revolvers or knives, even though these together account for the overwhelming majority of murders.
Movies, TV, and forum posts are simply not old enough to enjoy the same legacy of robustly elucidated gnosis as do books. Books are objectively superior in that respect, although they are perhaps not absolutely superior, as other media could develop a similar capacity to articulate notions specific to the soul of man. I agree with you about wisdom, as wisdom is as wisdom does, and wisdom is different life to life, but knowing is an altogether distinct matter. It is naive to pretend there are no differences, not least because the mediums select for different persons.
governement in most economies is even more Gargantuous. just for US, 37% on average (since 1970s) of gdp is governement spending ("tax" revenue+debt). here an historical gov on gdp table:

I'm not one of the best freelancers in the world, but I suspect that if I were, I would say there's no amount of money you could pay me, because I'm already making all the money I want working on projects I am interested in. The fact that, in our reality, Hertz went with Accenture, probably indicates they have other dysfunctions as well, and would be a pain to work with.
That's partly it, but the status quo in the US is of the car infrastructure being so good that driving in the US is a better experience than taking public transit in many places with excellent public transit. Therefore #1 will remain true as long as we don't downgrade (either intentionally or via neglect) the car infrastructure, and taking things away from people is always harder than just not giving it to them in the first place.
I don’t buy this was some mistake in good faith. I think the author is a little naive which made him a good mark.

They started work on and subsequently billed for something that was explicitly out of scope.

My guess is that the founder of the agency knew early on that he could push this client around to extract $.
It's weird to think we should build a whole bunch more restrooms when in a city most every business on every block has them. It's really an inhuman thing to turn people away from. I vaguely agree with the idea that Starbucks can't scale to provide bathrooms for all of America, but it's similarly irresponsible for a mayor to defer to them. I think the ideal solution is require all commercial bathrooms to be public but also fix whatever is causing an overflow of people to require said bathrooms.

I often wonder, if I get food poisoning, what are really my options if a business says I can't use their bathroom. Shit on the floor?
That’s OK if you’re a junior engineer with less than ten years experience but I would feel insulted if you question my credibility.
> Part of the reason they're horrible is because people don't have consistent interests. I might be interested in raunchy content right now, but I won't be a few hours later. What determines whether I'm interested in the former is outside of the control of these algorithms

I don't think that matters at all. People don't complain that they're getting recommendations that would have been great if they had come in an hour/day earlier or later. When you get a recommendation like that, you consider it a good recommendation.

Instead, they complain that they're getting recommendations for awful content that they wouldn't choose to watch under any circumstances.
It sounds like if they get any significant traction, it would be trivial for Microsoft to add the equivalent features to Excel.
So what should I do? Take a train? Doesn't go there. Bus? Again. Fly? That's not more efficient. Maybe grandma just doesn't need a visit from her grandkids.

Instead, I bought an electric car. I bet it compares quite favorably to a typical bus. And grandma does like to see her grandkids, let me tell ya.
> I can't agree with your assessment at all. Deaths are rising, yet what changes are happening?

More than one factor affecting a phenomenon can exist. They can be making changes to make things safer, while other things can be working against them. It's like saying "I don't believe harm reduction is helping: people still die from ODs"
Paraphrasing the saying about debt: If 10 people can't get on the flight it's the airlines problem. If 10000+ people a day arrive at the airport and can't get on the flight, that's airport's problem.
Perhaps, but their contributions to the opiate epidemic in the US makes me dislike the company - I know I'd never work there.
You say this, either not realising or not caring that slack and reddit were the disruptors before discord.

The entire business idea of these "services" is to get cheap labor, pay them $30/hr and charge clients $300/hr. Why companies go for this? Because they can't build their own IT, they have failed all the times and their CTO loves golf.
Growing up, my state only had a multiple choice exam for a license. The age limit is the only _real_ restriction you listed. Everything else is just to keep the honest folks honest.
Now I'm really curious for the reasoning behind that.
Er, so? If you're hit hard from the side with no seat belt, your whole body is likely to be thrown around and keeping your foot on the brake is going to be far more difficult.
Sorry but this does seem like a pointless discussion - if you were somehow able to prove that seatbelts basically never helped drivers avoid causing injuries/deaths to others then I'd agree a $50 fine is probably sufficient. But given what I've seen in this thread and elsewhere (including direct personal experience), seatbelts most definitely do help with that, and a fine + license suspension seems quite justified if you're caught driving without one (in Australia the fine is $550 plus a loss of 4 "demerit points" - lose 12 and your license is suspended. Seems a bit soft to me - the penalty for driving at 60k/h in a 50 zone is about the same.)
So what? Depending on the OPs age that might be just fine. And their skills could very well improve, it all depends on what they do in that time.

That kind of freedom is normally only reserved for the kids of the very wealthy, and it opens up all kinds of opportunities.
i mean i dont want to overstate it, its still a far better experience than dealing with the regular medical primary care system. Just, in the last ~12 mo or so id had enough problems - multiple MDs id seen before gone, 4+ days to get a message back from general/admin, billing problems(they coded a normal visit wrong and it cost me $600), lost referrals. Compared to basically zero in the ~5 years before. Still a good service that ill keep, just not as great :)

It was enough that i was wondering if they were financially struggling (having seen a lot of startups go through this cycle of at-first-excellent then degrading service). And i guess they were.
But this comes down to “trusting a compromised device is bad.” The device could steal your funds from the moment you send your first transaction (it could only generate a set of known private keys).

Assuming the mode of key signing is not compromised and is producing robust uniform randomness (whether it’s a hardware wallet, airgapped device or your own hand-rolled code) it shouldn’t leak anything per transaction that would lead to your private key being more easily discoverable.
China represents 18% of the world's population, yet 0.07% of COVID-19 fatalities. Seems like there is some value in their approach.
Who cares? Loads of people. My wife lost a coworker from an auto accident, one that they probably would have survived had they been wearing their seatbelt. She was a single parent to a small child. Losing his mom at such a young age probably made a big difference to him. It probably had significant impact on her mom, who now has a complicated custody battle with an abusive deadbeat dad and massively different life having to try and take care of her grandson.

She had a lot of friends, I'm sure they cared about her. My wife cared about her. My wife's other coworkers also cared.

Its incredible how selfish so many people are on this site. Is there nobody you care about?
FWIW, my sleep drain issue (on 11th gen) got noticeably better once I replaced my USB-A and HDMI modules with USB-C. Now I just have 4 USB-C modules. I did try updating SSD firmware before that, but I don't believe that had an impact. I'm not sure whether it was HDMI or USB-A or both that was the issue.

I run the latest kernel (5.16.16 currently) on Arch.
> It can't be done in reality, because the effect on the car isn't predictable on a real race track.

Maybe a driver could work it out in training for a single race and in a certain corner but the cost of getting it wrong is not only not finishing the race but also having a race car in the barrier, so a damaged car.

On a race track, drivers usually know characteristics of every corner for selected weather conditions. For example: at the Nordschleife, exit of Foxhole into Adenauer Forst is safe to cut in the dry but a no no in the wet, unless you’re in a GT3 class car with enough downforce.

It is the same with kerbs, stay out of then when it is wet, use them in the dry. But it’s all touch and go when the conditions change and sometimes that leads to a crash.
The disasters that happen when nuclear energy fails are amazingly bad though. Even discounting immediate human deaths, 80 square miles around Fukushima and 1,000 square miles around Chernobyl are effectively ruined forever.
The author of the article didn’t name the agency he was engaged with.

In other words, he essentially wrote a really long, detailed review but never mentioned the actual product.

...and yet they win big government contracts and nextcloud is the official cloud storage solution for a lot of german universities. Same for matrix - good idea on paper but implementation is not there at the moment - still they won some pretty big government contracts for Bundeswehr (military) chat and health chat.

IMHO Europe should just do something like create an https://www.inria.fr/en for writing sane software that acknowledges and handles the complexities of governance. Can't image that paying tons of grad students good money to design and hack something in Ocaml/Haskell that actually works is more expensive than the status quo.
Given how low the actual rate of fatalities is compared to miles driven, you are proposing that we significantly lower the bar for when we think government intervention is the right answer.
Well rural living and by extension preservation has to be joined with land ownership maps. First thing to check with a rural purchase must be what it borders. The more BLM/federal/state/county land, the more likely stuff like the above doesn’t happen. Same issue for building trusts.
I think so, but they are very different pace. BCS is a deeper (slower) story with better character development, but less action. Depends on why you liked Breaking Bad.
Mostly agree, except:

Design of separation can dramatically help. Isolate pedestrians and low-barrier low mass slow motor devices from higher mass, higher speed, vehicles.

Dense cities should have an (or many) isolated vehicles only layer(s), completely separated from pedestrians.
Extremely cheap experiments.
