> where are your unit tests

I do unit testing in SQL, and something I'm working on and use extensively myself (https://www.npmjs.com/package/sql-watch) indirectly supports unit tests.

There are also SQL testing frameworks available.
I think the issue isn't SQL, but the table paradigm for storing data. Humans do not store data in separate tables that need joining, they store data in a fully connected graph (hyper-graph). Its about relationships and hierarchies - the graph allows incredibly fast hierarchical reasoning, as most things involve hierarchical reasoning. The relational table, and Sql by correlation, are terrible at the human approach to working with data especially hierarchies.
I can somewhat understand the logic of charging me a recurring fee for a service that costs the provider a recurring cost, gets regular improvements, and where data is maintained. TV/sat radio? Ok (not that I would buy that). Remote tracking / start? Why not. Internet access in the car? Sure. Satellite maps with updates? Maybe. I would hope that given how much you charge me for the product, these come included, but MRR right?

But the idea of charging a recurring fee for something that's already in the car? Heated seats? Remote start with a fob? That's blackmail-powered greed. As far as I see it, that's the manufacturer's version of protection racket. If you stop paying them, then they're remotely breaking your car. Just because they planted a mole in it. Just because they can.
This is so f-ed up beyond grasp.

The good thing is that they have the right lobbies, so that won't ever be changed by customer protection.

I wasn't surprised that BMW, Tesla or Ford would do something like that. But for whatever stupid reason, Toyota is a disappointment, because I thought they would be part of a few manufacturers not playing that game

I have to say I'm very surprised, and I'm curious to see how this plays out. PoW must die, but I have a hard time seeing how this won't lock up a ton of currency and create its own plutocracy.

Of course I suppose an argument could be made that a "least privilege plutocracy" with aligned interests is not as bad as many alternatives.
Depends on the absolute rate of false positives.

I, for example, am currently banned from Reddit, after something like 8 years of usage, due to writing a comment mentioning that Reddit administration was corrupt (how's that for irony? I fear the far-right may have been correct about Reddit administration).

In this case it is not a broken system but an actively malicious one but the point still stands: if it takes 8 years to get falsely banned, they still have plenty of active users at any given time, even high-value ones.
The Russian rouble is outperforming the usd this year. That does not look like a collapsing economy. In fact, it has gained 40% on the euro.

If Russia loses, they will withdraw to their borders. In the worst case they lose access to the Caspian sea. If not, they will acquire Ukraine.

The real loser is Ukraine, no matter what happens from here on.

Making a choice based on popularity of the tool might be the wrong approach. If making a choice is even needed.

If I would start something now I would most definitely go for Swift/SwiftUI and Kotlin/Jetpack Compose. I find that productivity, developer experience are best with those as soon as one gets the hand of them.

Also, these are the only ones to be guaranteed to be around long-term. While any of the cross platform options sound interesting, there is no guarantee they will be around.
I kind of feel the same way as OP, even though, as you say, there is little to no evidence of bystanders suffering legal consequences for intervening to help. Despite that fact, it's been hard wired in my brain (and the brains of other well-socialized men) over years that you must never, ever physically touch a stranger, particularly a woman or child. Full stop. Even if they need help, even if they're attacking you, even if they're not paying attention and might walk into you. Never touch. I learned it as a kid, I learned it in grade school through college, and then it's been drilled over and over in every sexual harassment orientation/training at work. It's just a permanent part of my conditioning by now I don't think I could push through even in an emergency. Especially nowadays, where whenever anything happens, 5 cellphone cameras instantly come out, looking for the next viral video. It's too easy to become the next Reddit star in a video maliciously edited to make you look like a creep.
>I was manually driving, but the car was constantly freaking out because it thought I was running off the road. :lol Yes, it can be a hard problem.

If cracks in asphalt fooling the car's AI is a "hard problem", than full self-driving is doomed.
While that idea might seem somewhat out-there, it's fairly straightforward once you think about it. We know the transfer function for light through matter, and can calculate its derivative. Therefore, we can use ML to design matter shapes that have desired properties.

All computers are effectively physical systems that control their noise levels to achieve logical operations. In this case, it's an analog system with no moving parts, but I imagine that given the existence of spatial light modulators and mems mirrors, you could probably reprogram the system in realtime to erase what you wanted on the fly.
This sounds right for someone that lives in a city and doesn't have kids. If you have a family then the options you laid out above don't work very well and if you live in the suburbs then constant uber/biking/public transport are not long term options.

Your experience with this will vary hugely with where you are.

If I live in London, then almost everyone I see regularly will be living car-free. If I live in Weasenham in Norfolk, probably far fewer of my friends and neighbours will have a car-free lifestyle.
I have a hard time taking any argument for free will too seriously without a suggestion for a mechanism that would make it possible.
We must have kit cars now, like you build your own pc, and have them verified at the MOT/pits/vehicle inspection when you go to give it plates.

The only way to know what goes into your car and truly own it (currently) is to build it from parts.

I have a concept sitting in <that folder with all the ideas> that is pretty high on my list of "man, I want to make this happen" but would need a team to execute on.

The idea is to integrate the kickstarter model with github's issues (specifically, feature requests). You run an open-source project and people can submit feature requests that come with a fundraising campaign.

When someone wants the software to do something new (support a new platform, implement an interface, etc) they draft a campaign a la kickstarter, someone who can contribute to the project negotiates with the drafter pricing, targets, and stretch goals.

Past this point, it's the drafter's responsibility to do the marketing for the campaign and raise funds. Once the target $ amount is hit, it's on the person who picked up the contract to get the work done.

There are, of course, a ton of details to work out, and executing on this is going to be resource-intense on a number of vectors that aren't necessarily technical (legal, finance, hosting costs). Also, I suck at UI. The business itself would naturally be a non-profit.

addendum: I also have a day job that I have no intention of leaving, so factor that in to time-to-completion.
If your point (and the article's point) is that sales taxes are regressive and that moving from California where Prop 13 locks your property tax rate to a new state with high property taxes is effectively regressive, I guess... okay. That's not really news to anyone or surprising. If you were not in California or Texas, but had to pick one to move to, you'd be better off moving to Texas at any income level at or above the federal median income. While the property tax rates are lower in California and can be locked in with Prop 13, the house prices are massively higher. You can buy a nice home in Texas for $250k in most of the state (not in Austin), and that same house in California would be minimum $1M. A smaller percentage of a significantly higher valuation is still a boatload of money.

Also, you are making a bunch of conclusions not in evidence. The evidence, at least for Texas, shows that the majority of tax revenue comes from high income earners, primarily because they're land owners who buy more expensive/larger properties and because they make larger purchases. The state gets its income from property tax and sales tax primarily, both of which are considered "regressive taxes". While you're correct that these taxes account for a larger percentage of income for someone with lower income, the net effect is that the majority of the tax burden is being paid by more wealthy residents. Generally the right thing to do for people in lower income brackets in states without income tax is to increase their income, since they aren't penalized for it. In other states, you get penalized for increasing income, and in many cases are completely out of reach of ever having property ownership. Average people own homes in Texas, average people in California rent forever.

Ultimately, I suppose it's a good thing for these sorts of analysis to occur because it's more information to consider, but I do think there's some insidiousness to the way this is framed both in the article and in many of the comments. I don't even live in Texas anymore, but I definitely don't want to see it Californiated. If you want to live in California and think it's a better deal, go live in California, don't demand that Texas matches the same tax regime.
active noise cancellation does not absorb (and therefore prevent transmision) of the sound, it instead just causes the sounds to be "not heard" at a small location.

> distributing a single static binary is pretty awesome

It is, but does it really matter when you write backend? I've written and operated Node-based backends at scale, and I can't honestly remember any bugs or outages that would have been prevented by this.

At the other hand, there's a lot of potential bugs and problems that didn't happen because proper usage of TS's type system prevented me from committing them.
Teams is also very bloated (or "full featured" depending on how you want to spin it) compared to other chat apps, which does make it special by comparison.

Teams is trying very hard to make itself a platform, and it supports telephony in a way that other chat apps don't. I can be reached on my work Teams account via a dedicated phone number, and the account includes a bunch of Viva applications and pretty deep integrations with Office, SharePoint, and Power Platform.

> The only way to stop this is with regulation

This is a controversial point, but a salient one.

If EVERY manufacturer makes a smart TV, then there are no longer dumb TVs. It is collusion of a sort, not a monopoly. One could argue: just don't buy a TV, but there is some weird kind of inertia behind the purchasing of a TV that is immune to that claim. It is not essential to own one, but it shouldn't have to be a surveillance device. I expect the EU to address this long before the USA does, as the latter seems to be struggling with its politics doing even basic things for its people.

Yeah, we do all our "real" Colorado activities in our 4Runner and or with our off road camper. My son loves mountain biking when we go camping.

See above:

> a cyclist ran over a child (ER took the child to hospital) on a busy promenade on the bank of the river.

Promenades happen to be dedicated to pedestrians. So pedestrian was hit in a place, where he was supposed to be safe.

And then...

> Meanwhile there's over 2000 deadly car accidents a year in Poland, 20% of which are pedestrians[1], meaning there's more than one pedestrian killed by a car every day.

These accidents probably didn't happen on promenades, pavements, sidewalks, footpaths or other places dedicated to pedestrians.

So back to my point: comparing apples with apples. This comparison wasn't it.
I thought it was a joke too, judging from the date of submission—almost exactly one week before April Fool's Day.
Your publishing analogy is interesting, but I would tweak it, because most of "publishing" online was free and anonymous, not paid, so the analogy to streaming video services isn't a fair one. What _has_ happened, however, is that even paid subscriptions on publishing sites such as the NY Times include ads. That's bullshit, and I really hope streaming video doesn't go that direction.

Do any paid online video services NOT offer an ad-free experience now? To my knowledge they all do. Yes, Netflix has rumblings about starting an ads tier, but the OP is still correct, as far as I know, that the option for ad-free viewing still exists.
Making use is easy as well, like you described. Just a matter of specifying ssl_certificate(_key) path. It doesn't support variables so it can't be based on the server block's domain/variables unfortunately.

You could improve type ahead by just pouring effort into the IDE. Especially with the amount of resources we have nowadays. Easy enough to have basic typeahead on basically all possible columns when writing the select, and then you could use the columns as a filter on the tables during auto complete.

In general, this isn't done. But I don't see any technical reason it can't be done.

Definitely agree with making a game. I was stagnating as a defense contractor and turned to games as an escape from the grind of government work. I ended up installing Unreal Engine 4 and never looked back. My career growth improved exponentially after that because I was finally excited about the stuff I was working on at night.

To OP, if you enjoy DotA then I highly recommend trying to make a DotA clone yourself and coming up with your own unique abilities. If you use UE4, there's a HUGE amount of free assets (especially Paragon assets, Epic's old third-person MOBA).
I don't believe it's going to get quite that bad, but I agree that they need to get a move on and get back to some form of stable government quickly (even if the people in power are not necessarily who I'd choose).

It's not my perception of danger.

I don't understand why some cyclists are so defensive as soon as someone says anything perceived as against then. Cycling is good but comes with responsibilities.

Cyclists on pavements are a danger to pedestrians and too many cyclists do not behave in a safe and considerate way to pedestrians, not least when they ride on pavements illegally (all statements of fact here). Cars are on the road.

Similarly:

> Research by Rauh and Shyu (2021) strongly suggests that the increases in California’s marginal tax rates in 2013 increased the rate at which California residents moved out of state.

This cite didn't really support the point, but it seems to be a popular talking point amongst people who don't like taxes on high-income individuals:

> “Most people who move across state lines do so for housing, job, or family reasons,” Hans Johnson, a demographer for the Public Policy Institute of California, wrote earlier this year. Johnson also notes that those who leave California tend to be poorer and less educated than those who migrate to the state, which is not surprising given that housing and jobs dominate motivations.

> There is, however, a less obvious subset of those who leave California — high-income families seeking relief from the state’s notoriously high taxes.

"cybercrime" is such a tell word for press release BS.

What's interesting here is that there's clearly enough pressure from emulation of a system that's still the most current in its category that this product exists. There are clearly some downsides to the savings of pulling ARM architecture off-the-shelf.
Tensorflow (and pytorch) convert your computation graph (constructed in python) to XLA, which is then specialized to a specific hardware architecture. XLA is a good intermediate language and in fact, you can convert some memory movement in the graph to network calls, allowing you to run on parallel systems (like a cluster of GPUs or TPUs with their own non-host-based networking).

It still requires many experts, both to write the XLA to hardware translation, and ML engineers who know how to write TF python that executes quickly.

(note: Google has transitioned many projects to Jax, which also writes to XLA, as TF ended up being a bit of a pig with wings)

I'm concerned that, and predict that, we will continue to see legal efforts from large data companies to prevent their own data from being used to train similar models. They can use our data, but we can't use theirs. Time will tell.
