My ISP is Rostelecom and here they have the reputation of being a pretty crappy provider (probably because it's a monopoly in a lot of places), so a mistake is a possible reason, it's something Rostelecom could do.

an higher import tax can be applied.

That hasn't been true for years: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/E-8-2016-00127...: "The Common Customs Tariff duties are fixed by the Council on proposals of the Commission. The Commission can in this context confirm that the product is part of the coverage of the revised WTO[2] Information Technology Agreement, which has been negotiated by the Commission. This means that the customs duties for camcorder will be removed after the revised agreement enters into force and thus in extension benefit EU consumers."

It feels too close to being asked to prove a negative. Why not simply have an uninformative prior rather than a strong harm prior? Based on the discussion we've hard so far, it sounds like your prior is conditioned in some way, and to find the means by which it is is precisely why I'm digging[1].

It's more a cultural idea that you should treat/consider the customer very highly. It comes from the honour system of inner and outer circles. So conceptually the customer (honoured guest, okyakusama) outranks you.
I really doubt Tesla is even close from being better than human for now, seems like it needs to be in really specific and simple situation to act properly.

Customer service. Something sold by Amazon is defective, you get a return label and then a replacent or money returned to your card.

Something sold by a local B&M is defective, it has to be "checked by the repair department/importer/subcontracted local service center", for a coue of weeks to a month, then if the people holding your stuff decide to ghost you you're SOL.

And good luck returning things that "technically work" but not really, like a toaster that warms up but doesn't toast bread, or a non-stick pan that sticks.
For one, "better than average" is hard to measure / subject to lots of confounding factors, so people (rightfully) find those claims hard to believe. For another Autopilot often fails in different ways than human drivers, so it's easy to find examples where a human driver would have been fine, which exacerbates the perception that these are not in fact better.

I've always agreed with this view. Children can feel out lies and deception remarkably early. The whole of our social lives are determining what people are doing inside and modeling them accurately. I don't see why a new technique for lying (even if at scale) matters.

I don't see anything in the old act like that. https://www.congress.gov/116/bills/s3933/BILLS-116s3933is.pd...

The problem is, these right-wing "news" sites never cite their sources. They could easily have linked to a version of the bill saying "they removed lines 40-44" and that's the problem. But they don't. Because it's not about news, it's about fake outrage.

The thing is, explaining what I went through is kinda pointless as I have found out from talking to other people, because every experience is extremely personal, so there is a large chance that your experience is going to be different.

The only common theme that seems to be common is basically the ability to experience a whole new range of thoughts in regards to yourself and your life, making you aware of the intrinsic thoughts you have about yourself that you aren't normally aware you are having.
Code quality is only one reason to use microservices; deployment frequency is another (you want people to be able to deploy their service without needing to coordinate with every other service in the system).

Moreover, code quality isn't just encumbered by junior devs--in fact, in my experience it's more often managers pressuring developers to take shortcuts (e.g., taking a dependency on another system's private internals in the name of expedience, while swearing up and down that we will totally clean it up in a future iteration) or other organizational hurdles that make it difficult/impossible to fix it the right way, so shortcuts are taken instead (with microservices, the organization has to confront those issues, they can't be easily papered over by bypassing official interfaces).

Another reason to prefer microservices is security--not putting every secret in a single process's memory space is a great way to minimize blast radius if a service is compromised.

Another reason is reliability--if one system has a catastrophic failure mode, it won't take out all other systems. Of course, if the failing system is a core service, then it may not matter, but at least you're not bringing everything down when some service on the architectural periphery goes haywire.

I would like to hear more on this. Am somewhat playing a devil's advocate, but am genuinely unclear too.

What's the higher importance of the impact left on the world. As per the comment you replied to, it will ultimately be multiplied to zero for each one of us. That the impact may sustain in the 'living' world feels somewhat like a propagating wave, or may be even a Ponzi scheme.

Looking from a grander scheme of things, life on earth is more like moss on a stone. If our solar system gets destroyed today, our nearest galaxy would not experience the slightest thing for over a million years, and an astronomically miniscule change even after.

What's the true importance of the impact left over the world?

> How does it benefit the EU tax payer when projects that could be successfully done for 300k, are blown up to 3M with questionable added value?

At least in FP7, the EU wanted implementations and new markets or businesses, because they didn't want to pay for something they didn't understand.

Trade metrics are easy to understand and less objectionable than funding someone with an innovative idea on a domain where there are few experts. Th EU commission themselves has also to report about their actions to EU parliament and EU council.

> You are just advocating to game the EU bureaucracy better.

You may not know but it happens that EU commission, or national authorities ask for reimbursement of funds if they thinks they have been gamed. Tricking the "EU" is not advisable.
There is mention of the 41° N [1] in some articles. Are there any space agencies that have modeled the descent and calculated a "best guess" for E?

Note that the "looking into 16 crashes" part of this article pertains to:

> PE21-020 is upgraded to an Engineering Analysis (EA) to extend the existing crash analysis, evaluate additional data sets, perform vehicle evaluations, and to explore the degree to which Autopilot and associated Tesla systems may exacerbate human factors or behavioral safety risks by undermining the effectiveness of the driver’s supervision. In doing so, NHTSA plans to continue its assessment of vehicle control authority, driver engagement technologies, and related human factors considerations.

NHTSA is evaluating whether or not the fact that Autopilot allows you to 'lock it in' makes you less attentive when driving. Compared to Ford's Blue Cruise[0], it seems like it's better for regulatory safety to make a system that can turn off at any time and doesn't make loud noises to alert the driver when it turns off, so that the driver won't expect the system to work without them looking at the road.

[2] For me it has to do with scanning code. If if-statements are always in a block, then I can easily scan to or past it without having to stop and read what it actually says. But, if it is in a single line I have to stop and read it to understand that it is actually an if statement that was put onto a single line.
I appreciate this example. I don't know why these two words always stump me. I feel pretty capable grammatically, but my brain completely forgets to remember these examples.

I think you've completely misunderstood what I am saying. I was not suggesting it was acceptable to direct the insult at someone with an IDD. I was saying the opposite, that it was acceptable to direct it at someone *without* an IDD.

> "mentally challenged" and "developmentally delayed" aren't pejorative terms so they're not relevant to the discussion.

A pejorative is all about context. If you're in the southern United States and someone says to you "bless your heart" or "oh sweet child", you've just been insulted.

Calling your able bodied sibling "mentally challenged" is no different than calling them "retarded".

> anyone can be an "idiot" or "moron" or do something "stupid"

Fool, idiot, moron, and stupid were, like retard, once used as terms to describe someone with an IDD.

Not really drugs per se, but at 50k feet yes that's true (but no entirely accurate).

This isn't a judgement or a knock. Just a fact.
Agree to disagree. Systems that frustrate the accumulation and concentration of power seem to be integral to a functional society, nevermind a prosperous one, historically speaking.

“Convenience, less human hours wasted on boring stuff” is fine as an individual consumer mindset, but does not form sufficient criteria for evaluating complex social systems.

Also, in my anecdotal experience, large dog owners end up putting in more training time because the consequences of not are much greater.

Similarly with barking. Not saying it's true for all owners, but generally once you start training alot of other behaviours get cleaned up as a side effect.

It’s probably because it’s somewhat more complex to implement encrypted end of end video and storage, with a slightly more complex user experience. So they cut corners, knowing most people don’t care about encryption.
It's weird to compare the fact that autopilot could add 9's of safety to situations that are already 99.99% safe, which at the scale of "almost all drivers" means a lot of avoided deaths, while at the same time potentially adding risk to situations that with humans in the loop would be much safer.

For example, if it makes deaths on highways go down by 1 in 10k, but now you need to accept the risk of the car turning you onto oncoming traffic at an intersection because it was bad weather.

It's a tough change to accept when the failure hits you personally, and not one I know we should blindly agree.
Labeling something as 'conspiracy ranting' is convenient low-brow tactic to dismiss a supported point of view without consideration. This is also a pattern on HN.

At least amongst a certain subgroup of the US, there's been a lot of backlash against "privatizing profit and socializing losses" (or lemon socialism). Many people pointed fingers at airlines needing a bailout in 2020 even though they had bought back shares for a decade. I guess the US is just very against the idea of equity-based bailouts (i.e. US govt owning a portion of the airlines).
