I want to visit Amsterdam to see how they deal with this. Most people there get around on an (almost scooter-sized) bicycle but they usually _own_ it themselves, so there's incentive to look after it and not allow it to be impounded for blocking the way (or stolen or whatever).

I think the "you don't own it so you can forget about it after the ride" aspect of Lime/Bird/etc is a bug, not a feature.
The PC emulator is worth a go too if you get into Koreader itself. Very handy for shortening the OODA loop over downloading to a target device. And the IRC channel is also useful.

Happy hacking!
> I suspect most of the commenters here that come out in support of public transit everytime don't actually use public transit.

Or, a bit more charitably, maybe they live where public transport actually mostly works. I.e. not in the US (by all accounts).
That’s an uncanny valley between an HP-32S RPN calculator or a simple algebraic Casio and Octave/Matlab. I don’t think TIs should be needed if exams are correctly prepared by professors. Good professors prepare conceptual and theoretical exams where you can solve most things algebraically or even leave the end result to be evaluated at a final step.
For kids, it's easier to make activities with applied math. So my abstract advice is to offload some of the mathly part of the activity to the kid in spite it may be obvious for the adult. It can be applied to carpentry, or cooking, or whatever is your (kid) favorite activity.
Counting the number of amplitudes isn't really the right way to approach it. Individual amplitudes are basically irrelevant to a large quantum computation. It's all about large scale patterns in the amplitudes. Little exceptions to these patterns don't matter much.

Suppose I gave you the power to negate a billion amplitudes of your choosing in the middle of a 2000 bit quantum factoring computation. You might think this could destroy the computation, but a billion is way way way less than 2^2000 so the computation would for all intents and purposes be completely unaffected.

The things the quantum computers operate on are the qubits, not the amplitudes. Noise processes also operate on qubits, not amplitudes. It's the quantity and quality of the qubits that matter.

You can factor 2048 bit RSA integers if you have 20 million qubits each having a 0.1% gate error rate [1].

ClamAV is good. No bloat and is a very simple program that Just Works. Also it’s compatible with Linux which is great since Linux is my daily driver. I do a scan every 3 months just to have some good security posture, although some classes of malware can evade AV, so it’s no silver bullet.

Not only is there phishing opportunity, it's being actively exploited to much greater financial effect (check fraud and identity theft), and you don't even need to go to the lengths of creating a company profile or a website as anyone can create a job posting for any company (with rare exception) [1].

Here's a very real series of events I'm privy to:

- Bad guy gets a domain name confusingly similar to the target company (maybe tack on "inc" or "llc").

- Bad guy gets access to a LinkedIn account (doesn't matter who or if they're connected to the company; stands to reason that a hacked account with existing connections adds credibility) and updates the title to CEO of target company.

- Bad guy posts an "Easy Apply" ad for a remote job with target company.

- That job listing automatically appears on target company's LinkedIn page.

- Bad guy begins receiving contact info for the job and gets to work.

- Following a weak interview process conducted entirely over IM or email, the candidate is hired.

- New hire provides identity documentation at bad actor’s request.

- Bad actor sends new hire a check with instructions to buy equipment for their home work area from a specific vendor who is also the bad actor.

- New hire deposits check and bank makes funds available before the check clearance process actually completes.

- New hire buys a few thousand dollars’ of equipment from a vendor that doesn’t exist with money they don’t actually have.

- Check bounces and the jig is up.

By the time target company found out, LinkedIn has removed both the job ad and the profile that created it, but did not and would not reach out to the applicants to warn them of the scam nor provide those applicants to the target company (y'know, the company the applicants thought they were applying to; citing "privacy reasons").

While [1] says LinkedIn can do something to restrict who can post jobs on behalf of your company, it's wholly undocumented (and I suspect may not work well for companies relying on both internal and external sourcing). The only defensive measure I've identified is setting up a job alert for your company, specifically for Easy Apply and/or Remote positions as that seems to track with the scam.

> “The pedestrian,” explained a Brooklyn man, “as an American citizen, naturally resents any intrusion upon his prior constitutional rights.” Custom and the Anglo-American legal tradition confirmed pedestrians’ inalienable right to the street.

> In 1913 the New York Court of Appeals observed that it was “common knowledge” that the “great size and weight” of automobiles could make them “a most serious danger,” and so the responsibility for preserving the safety of the streets lay overwhelmingly with motorists.

Any legal researchers or history buffs out there know of any other precedents at appeal (or higher) siding with the rights of pedestrians over motorists? Did the issue ever make the US Supreme Court?

Its always intrigued me that arbitrary rules (like driving on the right) have such enforceable weight of law behind them (thank goodness), while other rules are more lax. For example, is the customary tradition for the US (along with Liberia and Myanmar) to use imperial (rather than metric) measurements set in legal stone somewhere? I know that NASA and their contractors all use metric [0]. What requires a custom or tradition to be legally defined?

> But you see, going with renewables is not betting the future of the planet. We absolutely know that renewables can do it. The technologies all exist now. All that we're doing is quibbling over how much it would cost.

We have lots of experience with hydroelectricity. So we can just build more dams, it's all just a question of cost right? With more money we can just build more dams until we reach 100% hydroelectric generation right? This is the kind of logic you're using.

Possibility and feasibility are two different things. Lithium ion batteries exist, but we'll never deploy a day's worth of battery storage. The scale just isn't there. No amount of money thrown at the problem is going to make it possible.

Sure things like hydroelectricity and electrolysis exist, but they have significant barriers to feasibility. The likely path for an attempt at solar and wind grid is to build a bunch of solar and wind, try to build storage, fail, and keep using fossil fuels. Nobody, and I mean nobody has ever built grid scale storage for more than an hour's worth of electricity use (let alone total energy use). Energy storage remains an unsolved problem, and it's not just a question of cost. There's no telling if it can be done even with unlimited financial resources.

By comparison we just need to build 4 nuclear plants for every existing one in the US. No massive 10,000x increase in storage capacity required. No reliance on technology that's never been deployed at scale.

This is a shame because it was a considerably
powerful compared to the famicom

This is 100% true: the base Master System is more powerful than the base NES in terms of RAM, and onscreen colors, ability to do split screen / multilayered scrolling, and a few other key metrics.

Though, the slightly fuller picture is that the Famicom's weirdly unique architecture made it able to be "upgraded" by hardware on the game carts themselves.

So in practice, many flagship NES titles quickly surpassed those on the Master System by various technical measures.
For sure. There are a lot of things to do:

- files tree,

- windows manager (it looks simple to implement, yet 2000 lines of code),

- tabs,

- better syntax highlighter,

- code bundler (3-4 years to research),

- transpilers,

- preview (service worker serve it with bidirectional request between bundler worker and service worker and another window preview also),

- console (it is pretty hard to describe every data type and make client-server between iframe and console to show nested structures dynamically)

I wouldn't see how. AIUI, DeFi loans are over collateralized. It's appears to like taking out a second mortgage on your home. You make payments or the collateral disappears.

The only benefit of this I can see is converting tokens to cash as a hedge against a crypto crash. If you pay off the loan and the token price continues to grow, you get all your tokens back and it only cost you the interest. If the token price crashes, well you already have the cash, so you can default on the loan and the only collateral is worthless tokens.
Two disasters that leave nuclear reactors irrecoverably deep is indeed a catastrophe.

PT being regularly late is definitely a reason people avoid it, hence my suggesting we focus on service reliability and comfort. I'm not proposing we make PT slower than it already is - just that the focus needn't be on mean travel time. So the average PT consumer may need to leave their house a little earlier but would virtually always get where they're going on time (stress-free and in comfort), vs the current situation where you might fairly often be considerably late.

That would be the 100% penetration scenario, which is not realistic by any metric, especially in Boston and NYC where they already have strong and efficient public transportation networks.

I don't even actively code with rust but just from the fact that its been packaged as a dependency has been enough of a headache for me. The latest issue is with some homebrew package that has rust as a dependency. It turns out on macos mojave rust needs to be built from source since there is no bottle. I let it build for a full day and it still didn't finish building, so I gave up. Then I installed rust independently with rustup and successfully linked that install to brew, which nearly worked, but failed with the cryptic "rustup could not choose a version of cargo to run..." error that I can't make any sense of, because the solution it gave for that error to download the latest stable release and set it as your toolchain with 'rustup default stable' didn't do anything because that was already done. The real salt on the wound is that modern google search bringing up nothing relevant.
Do you really think that?

We are dealing now with barrels of DDT dropped in deep water off the Californian coast
I'm a bit puzzled that you didn't mention accidents at all, just like the article. Every time I see one of those rushing by it looks like some gnarly injuries waiting to happen, and an emergency doctor confirmed that (although I don't have numbers).

Also, I'm not sure that calling a battery-powered mode of transportation, for distances so short they don't require motors at all, 'low-emission' is adequate.
Or like me I replaced a lot of walking with scooters which are a lot more thrilling/fun/cool. Till I noticed I wasn’t walking as much and wasn’t feeling as good, and then dropped scooters 100%.

I will short term choose convenience but medium term, I have a belief that certain kinds of inconvenience are essential to a good day. Walking or otherwise using my body being a chief example. Also being around people and hard mental work and cooking.
That is patently untrue, through - yes many people do confuse those, but shadow banning (stupid term but it is what it is) is a real thing - case in point I signed up for a twitch account (don't ask) and it appears because I signed up from a shared ip address (cgnat, 1000s of people) my chat shows sent in my browser but never appears - that is shadow banning and it is extremely cowardly.

(Proven with streams that show chat, also never informs my followers that I'm online, does not show in the online list on their side)
> Private transport represents freedom, public transit represents control.

I feel the opposite. If I need to get somewhere then private transport feels like control: I have to own and maintain a car, pay insurance, watch the road carefully, etc. Public transport, in contrast, feels like freedom. But I know this is not the common belief.
A 50cc gas scooter! I've never been into motorcycles and learned to ride a bike pretty late in life. My friends got into dirt bikes and that got me thinking, maybe I'd like to try something similar.

Well so far its been a wonderful experience. I love the sense of freedom it gives me. And its actually super economical with 80 miles per gallon. I became a scooter/moped preacher!

Not sure why this is being posted now as this is from March...

But anyway - I understand why they have changed their interpreter however the lack of major version bump threw me off. I use ps2pdf to optimize pdfs (long story short - makes their size smaller) and was alarmed when my pdfs suddenly ended up without the jpeg backgrounds. Instead, purely black (although this did result in a very small file size so who knows... :) )

Thankfully you can add `-d NEWPDF=false` to your command to use the old parser. I'm yet to submit a bug report but it would be nice if it was backwards compatible...
Strategy/tactical board games have a lot of math, which is the main reason I can't play them with my 3 years old
A functional public transport system also means that people who are too young or old to drive, or have vision problems, or need to take medication which makes it unsafe to operate a vehicle, have the freedom to leave their homes and go where they need to go.

> I think the bar for who gets to be a Googler has dropped significantly, but assumptions of prestige from without have not changed over time.

The former is obviously true, if you go back far enough. Aiming for concentrating talent, the bar you can set if you need 10-20-30 engineers a year is wildly different than what you can do if you need thousands. Same applies at team level; it's possible to put together a top world-class team of 10 people, a struggle to put together 100, and beyond that order probably not going to happen, for a host of reasons.

The latter though, doesn't seem to be true at all. I don't think I know anyone in tech who holds google technically in the same regard they were held in 15 years ago as an organization. Individual teams, sure.
Right now there is an exception for violence committed in self-defense for instance. You still can't claim self-defense if you murder someone that shoved you. That's why I think things would get worse, you'd still be on the hook for serious escalation. My definition of minor violence is anything that doesn't leave a trace for more than a few days, so I know it's not legally precise.

I'm just arguing for a fringe solution right now, but from the outside it seems that long prison sentences for minor offenses have destroy lives and communities in many US inner city areas, and almost anything might be an improvement. How was your experience with rehabilitation of minor offenders?
The best I've ever used have been cheap and lightweight. I own better hiking headlamps but for reading they aren't that great.

First time I tried, all six scooters in the vicinity were broken. The second time I tried, I went a hundred feet until I passed into a "no scooter zone" where it insisted I push the thing to my destination. Their map had no indication of such zones. Begone with these scooters, they are a waste of time and resources.
I wonder if it works well enough to travel, i.e. does it make it obvious that the phone is in repair mode and does it stop someone from copying an image of your personal data.
I'm sorry, but you're just wrong about who uses Festool tools. Yeah, some people with a boatload of money buy it because it's the most expensive tool.

You primarily see their tools in the hands of pros, because their tools are, in many cases, better than the alternatives. The value prop on the Domino isn't that it's the strongest joint, it's that it's strong enough for the application, fast, and repeatable. When you build furniture for money, that matters. You don't have to build too many frame and panel assemblies to make it pay for itself.

The dust collection on their sanders is outstanding. I don't do site work that involves sanding, but if I did, you'd better believe that I'd make that investment in a heartbeat. Not getting fine sanding dust all over your client's space is worth every penny of the cost.
Which you could argue is another case of TikTok building everything around the recommendation algorithm. It just works better with short videos.

YouTube used to be full with 3-4 minute videos back in the day, with a ten minute maximum. Longer than TikTok, but not much. But those short videos all but died out when the 10-minute videos got another ad spot and thus more money for the creator.

> I'm calling bullshit on the every damned thing needs to be DoS or timing-attack hardened

But that isn't the claim. Rust's defaults are safe. Remember Rust's one line description "A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software".

This is like with the decision that Rust's sort() is a stable sort. I know what a stable sort is, and so do you, so if we care we may decide it's appropriate to use the unstable sort which could be faster. But programmers who don't know what a stable sort is aren't expected to learn about it before their sort does what they expected.

Same here, I know that SipHash is slower than Fowler–Noll–Vo, which in turn is slower than the identity function, and I know why it would or would not be OK to choose them, and presumably you do too. So if we care we may choose a different hasher for our HashMap. But programmers who don't know about hash algorithms aren't expected to go learn all this stuff before using HashMap.

I think maybe C++ isn't programming it's actually a live action "Um, actually" game where the stakes are your program arbitrarily misbehaves unless you correctly guessed all the things wrong with whatever code you just wrote despite the compiler insisting there's nothing wrong with it as written.

Could I do OK at that game? I'd like to think so. Do I want to play? No thanks.
