It's time to accept that self driving needs roadside infrastructure support.
-5V has became optional in recent ATX specifications, and many newer PSUs don’t have it at all. (including the one I used here)

-12V is still mandated and on all ATX PSUs, so it’s more compatible to get -5V out of that.
I think it makes a lot more sense to just categorize them as authoritarian.

The rest of those qualifications certainly exist in Russia but I don't think it's to the extent where it's a characteristic of the regime.

Fascism seems to be a "I know it when I see it" thing and I just don't see Putin as any more than a strong man ala Saddam Hussein. Somehow I feel like somewhat of a cult of personality is a key aspect of fascism and an much more oppressive suppression of subversive ideas, more like North Korea. In Russia, we hear about Pussy Riot rather than them dissapearing before we do.
There are a lot of people in this thread saying that I said stuff I didn't say. It's maddening.
I've had good results with offloading work to a cloud based server where I ran my docker containers during development. Just CLI though, I left the graphical part on the client side. As mentioned by others, VSCode with remote SSH was a blessing for such a scenario.

There are benefits; I could scale up my workstation even for an hour or so, with more memory or a fancier cpu. And it was easier to share my work with other (remote) colleagues; because they were at another timezone I could leave the server up for them when needed, while I shut my laptop down for the day and see their feedback the next day.
A lot of my childhood shows were poorly animated (https://g.denik.cz/35/bd/jc-rumcajs0617_denik-320-16x9@2x.jp...) or shot in stop motion with really simple elements. (http://fototeka.fn.org.pl/public/cache3/1-F-3092-5-1291x629....) Everyone who watched those is doing fine. Kids shows don't need to be art pieces - they're simple stories.
They never do. Change your DNS, or use a VPN. The archive people have a nerd rage problem with some DNS specifics, IIRC.
>>35 year old engineers were making more money than leading heart surgeons with 35 years of work experience.

Indian here and can confirm.

This sort of situation is why so many people in comparable professions(like medicine) resent software people in India.

Having said this I do believe software people deserve to make more than doctors. Medicine especially after a while can be about trivia scholars.

Software on the other does demand training on bleeding edge tech almost every few months. We also tend to put lot of smart work[mathematically inclined work] than doctors.
Oh so that's why their called trigraphs, because there's 3 valid states?

This comes up a lot in the international test score comparisons. You have places like Singapore, Japan and China that dominate the league tables as in the kids get the best test scores, but that does not translate into American style economic creativity. Now maybe all of the American style economic creativity is driven by high IQ immigrants but I don't think that is true.

Has anyone studied this? It is constantly referenced.
Yeah, I meant it literally in this case. Probably crude, English isn't my native tongue. Was meant that nobody would notice if the weapons were concealed.
NoCode.Tech just released a new website with 100s of free no-code lessons
I think embedded sensors are easily fixed in high maintenance areas.

In Canada, as with a lot of the US, the roads are asphalt. These tend to get resurfaced once a decade.

All we need is a cheap rfid type device, with unique serial numbers, and they can just be dumped into the asphalt, at least a few per sq cm.

Just mixed in, no specific placement, as long as the density requirement is met.

This allows for redundancy too.

After the road is done, a mapping device can drive along slowly, and map sensor location to road location, and create a database.

This may seem like a lot of data, but you only need this data for the area you are in, and if we started today, it would be a few years before roads were created this way.

Memory and storage grow constantly.

My biggest concern is ists of some type. Anti-technologists, some radical *ist group, dragging some high em device behind them, to blow all the rfid devices.

But anyhow, road sensors aren't that hard, or even expensive. Not compared to standard resurfacing costs, and that is done frequently enough that natural repair cycles can get things embedded.
The quote from Kim Jong Gi reminded me of the quote from Tesla (as well as other notes I've read) because it seems to indicate that they can visualize at extremely high detail and do this at very high speed... while also accurately retaining the information for use later.
The source code to the tooling that generates the initialization code sequence along with all the input and configuration files and anything else needed to run it constitutes the source code of such a binary blob.
But then this has the impact of reenforcing model predictions (unless controlled for). This lead won't convert based on the model, so I won't spend time with them or give them any preferential pricing, so the lead doesn't close (and the converse is true).

This isn't a pure ML problem, and without "treatment" data I'm not quite sure how the blog is adjusting for customer propensity towards an outcome :/
Interesting, I helped manage a splunk install at a fortune 200 about a decade ago. At the time the recommendation was to use syslog-ng to filter incoming logs before indexing. I just heard of cribl 2 weeks ago because the fortune 20 I currently work for is planning on switching to it. I didn't realize it was a massive shift like that, I just thought it was the corporation switching things just because they do that sometimes.
Jobs-to-Be-Done (JTBD) Interview Guide
When building - Intuition comes before Analysis.

We need to come up with ideas first, then go into testing/validation mode.

How do we come up with new ideas?

One of my favorite techniques is the JTBD interview.

How do you all come up with new product and design ideas?
Could this also not have been fixed by running some tool to detect non-free hardware and alerting the user of the need to install one of these packages later?
I don't have a specific solution for you, but I also run a domain with some thousands of subdomains and is always a fight to not be banned from Google, Meta, internet operators etc. Sometimes is enough one bad actor under one of your subdomains to have a full ban on the whole domain.

What I suggest is for your and your clients to contact Meta through the Business Center support. Their support for paying clients is much better. I would also recommend you become a Meta Business Partner if Facebook/Instagram is important for your SaaS.
Well written. You're not alone. There seems to be no good platform upon which to fight back. Trumpism has taken the other side of this issue, but that side is poisoned by fascism, (real) racism, ignorance and the malignance that is Trump himself. The left has potent messaging and branding power - what are you going to say, that you're against diversity? The phrase "men's rights advocate" has been coopted to mean antifeminist. The actual words men and whites can use to fight for our rights are literally taken from us, even as they redefine the conflict as being about gender and race. It's an extraordinary level of dehumanization, and I fear that many moderates are either unaware or if they are aware, rationally afraid to speak out.

Our laws, public and private, should make no reference to gender, race, religion, or sexual preference. Hiring should be done on merit. And this is now the "racist" position!

The DEI narrative is angry, retributive. It says some groups have victimized others (especially whites enslaving blacks and men controlling women) for so long that mere equality under the law isn't enough. This seems taken as axiomatic, obvious, and just. But this is the outcome of a court case against white people, held in someone else's mind and the defendants had no say. This court's ruling is tantamount to a religious belief, because it cannot be challenged or appealed on any basis, and in fact all challenges are treated as further evidence in favor of the ruling, and evidence that the challenger deserves extra punishment, up to and including ostracism.

This trend must be fought by anyone who cares about justice and liberty. Musk called it a "woke mind virus" and he's right, and we need some antivirals, stat.
> Autonomous cars that could just use that would be much better than having to build out and maintain rails.

Not if everyone has to spend $50-100K on a car + maintenance + insurance + fuel + parking every 10 years or so and live in cities optimized for those. Regardless how much it costs to invest in infrastructure it will cost far less than equipping everyone in America with a new car at their own expense and socializing the cost of maintaining roads, highways and interstates.

Replacing each car in America today with an electric, self-driving car (using a Tesla ballpark and factoring in the aforementioned additional expenses) is $10-20 trillion dollars. Imagine the kind of public transit we could have for twenty trillion dollars invested every 10 years. China put in 24,000 miles of high-speed rail for $500B.
There's no reason you can't have frequent and convenient public transit as a subsidized service. This also ignores how between the years of 1938 and 1950 National City Lines — with investment from GM, Firestone Tire, Standard Oil of California (through a subsidiary), Federal Engineering, Phillips Petroleum, and Mack Trucks — acquired and dismantled the streetcar rail transit systems of 25 cities, including Los Angeles. We have worse transit systems in the US today than we did a century ago. All in the service of cars which we rebuilt our cities around.

While we fucked around for a decade the CPC built out a high speed rail network on the mainland. Similar landmass, similar geographical challenges, less wealthy nation. Guess Americans will have to wait until public transit is more profitable than making everyone get their own car with its very own JARVIS.
but then you'd have no output to sell, and no business to be had.
Labor is a huge component of the cost of bus public transport. If you had a driverless bus, you could greatly expand system coverage and frequency and still probably save money.

There would still be challenges: how to handle safety issues, crashes, unruly passengers, etc. without a driver, but worst case you're paying for an attendant now instead of skilled labor.
Cant read the article but I find this title quite disingenuous.

Self-driving is being extensively used all over north america. I'm in the detroit area, so I've seen them. Haven't had the chance to be driving near one yet :(

Kind of impossible to say 'going nowhere' when there's popular youtubers with videos showing it working in real life.

The thing that's happening right now is the big shift in transportation. It's better for the wealth of our countries to have driving services at a monthly cost rather than some large cap-ex purchase that mostly sits in a driveway taking up space.

The problem? Boy do we have a ton of lazy people working for insurance companies who are about to lose their job.
What if you are asked to do superhuman efforts, surely there is some limit no? Read this absolutely massive document and architect an implementation by tomorrow. Get it right! DOE doesn't accept mistakes!
Exactly, I'd have no problem taking an IQ test for a role, and usually test high on those. Leet code grinding and interview "preparation" I just have no time and willingness for.
If the watch was seriously overheating constantly, I wouldn’t try to take the bands of.

If it wasn’t, there certainly is info missing from this story.

I think there’s info missing anyways. For example, the Apple Watch Series 7 has a battery life of less than a day. I can’t see that getting longer when it’s overheating. Even if this occurred overnight (“over 2 days (at least)”, IMO, is not what the article says. It could have started overheating at night, and ‘exploded’ early next morning), did he try to recharge the watch after Apple told him not to touch it?
Well said.

IME the jamband scene (at least pre-pandemic) carried the torch pretty well. Beyond GD's post-Jerry iterations (Dead & Co, Phil and Friends), that welcoming community of taper-friendly bands (esp Phish, but also Moe, SCI...) has even grown in size and reach.
On the other hand, those numbers were "special" before they were drawn - which is why more people played those numbers than would be expected for "non-special" combinations.
> This is why massive companies like Meta and Alphabet needs to be nationalised.

No. Giving this additional power to the government will not have the outcome you want. When something becomes too powerful, the solution is not to further concentrate that power into less accountable hands.
Facebook is approaching 100 acquisitions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitio...

Feels like a lot and not just three entities.

Additionally, Facebook primarily does acquisitions as a form of hiring, according to Mark Zuckerberg himself. They buy the company so they can get the employees to come and work at Facebook.

A non-physician is over here commenting on medications they've never prescribed!
I agree it's possible to make a lidar unit for $25 down-the-line; there's nothing fundamentally expensive. However, it's not just a question of volume. It took decades of Moore's Law before computers became cheap. Optical disk drives took a decade or two as well for reading, and more for writing. Display technologies were a little bit faster, but not fast.

I'm pretty convinced if we wanted to make 100 million lidar units in 2023 or 2024, the cost would be approximately* the same as it is today.

* From a computer science big-O perspective. Simple volume economics might drive the cost in half, or even a quarter, but not down by an order-of-magnitude.
I just wish Syncthing would allow for deferred sync, i.e. you see the file, but it only gets fetched once you access it.

That's, imo, the only way to sync large folders. I don't need all my Documents/Photos/Movies/Whatever on my phone at all times, but I do wish I could access them when I need them.
Yes and this news should make us all reflect on those habits and try to improve.

Recruiting firms often create fake developer profiles to attract other recruiters messages. Then, they'll recruit for that ideal profile and present the candidate blindly to the companies HR or hiring managers, hoping to secure a relationship/placement fee.

And a payment service, an ad platform, a marketplace, a VR R&D company, I never used them but I guess they also have a line of business services centred on social network communication, I’m probably forgetting plenty of things.

Funny you use a spreadsheet as an example. That's been the default for Excel for years. Save to SharePoint/Teams/OneDrive (whatever MS is calling it these days, it's all the same backend) is the default option - and multi-user live editing (or one user in multiple sessions) just works.
I worked on FB briefly. It turns out that platform does vastly more than I had imagined, and maybe you too.

Manipulation could work although it might make you feel guilty about it later. Let's say your parent gives you some of their money they earn from their new tech job, which they got by updating their skills. Because of your guilt, instead of using that money to invest in yourself, you'll spend it on some reckless activity.
I think this gets closer to the point I tried to make. There is no unified "blue" or "red," so there wouldn't be a split along the colors cable news paints on election maps. Our FPTP system papers over a lot of diversity of thought that gets wrapped up under the big tents, but doesn't match geography. There are tankies in conservative-run states and evangelicals in Blue Country. Any attempt to split the country along ideological lines would make the most ridiculous gerrymandered district blush.
Just use parentheses if you're doing many operations on one line? This is common sense in any programming language.

I've been programming in C for years and never had an issue with operator precedence.
Thanks for that idea, makes a lot of sense!

Could you maybe share some platforms with TA where I could test my prototypes?
Been working remotely for 6 years. My vm is in New York and I live in rural France. I connect over a 4g connection. I have a 24" monitor.

No, this person seems too desperate and manipulative to respect their parents.
> Sometimes is enough one bad actor under one of your subdomains to have a full ban on the whole domain.

If you're running independent subdomains where a bad actor on one should not affect the reputation of the rest, you probably should add your domain to the public suffix list: https://publicsuffix.org
Would you be ok with the chinese or argentinian government running Alphabet or Meta?

I don't think most government are better than any corporation.
The African wars have pretty much ended, and the average African is governed fairly decently.

According to a source I'll never find again, Africa is on a European year 1900 economic development level, and catches up 3-4 years per year.

I don't think Africa needs European charity. They'll develop themselves from now on.
Disclaimer: I work in this industry. One company you probably heard of and another you probably haven’t but my opinions are of my own.

It’s interesting to see how much people get wrong about autonomous vehicles (AV), mostly because of how little these companies can share publicly. IMO, geofenced driverless vehicles are closer than you think and AV are getting more affordable to manufacture as we progress thanks to economies of scale. Can it replace all cars immediately in the next decade? No. Can you use it like a Uber in SF after a long eventful night within this decade? Probably.
Hey you just made clear to me what bugs me about self driving cars. They make me feel disabled.
I know sub-optimal government is the default solution to all issues, but man, they are terrible with the monopolies they do control like healthcare, public education and infrastructure.
You don't need to worry about that unless you're playing at GM level for fun. For most people they'll pretty much never run into cheating
The European Union finally did it with the Digital Market Act. The law enforces access to market place and interoperability between messaging platforms. I’m surprised we don’t hear much about it here.

My guess is that American companies like to pretend it doesn’t matter in case it gave idea to US customers and silently fight it in courts in Europe.
> Whether they apply it to the real world is another thing.

'Knowing' it but not applying it (and in what is literally a textbook circumstance, no less) is itself a failure of understanding.
It seems to me that the reason why so many bad enterprise solutions are bought is because the buyer is not the user. It’s such a funny thing to me that people would spend tons of money without firsthand experience or at least someone they trust using it.

That is easily fixed with legislation. We now have multiple phone companies that all interoperate. No reason we can't require the same from our many facebooks.

Terra is such a an overly recycled term. It was not obvious if this was some kind programming language associated with the Terra block chain and Terraform Labs, which is also overloaded with Terraform, the infrastructure-as-code tool by Hashicorp.
That's interesting, I have two questions:

1) Are users alerted when they are added to a list?

2) Do you have a specific technique or dataset to find relevant users or do you just search by hand?
I know several people that have died or almost died from Widowmaker heart attacks. Seeing a cardiologist and cardio in general is one of those things that a lot of men ignore because they feel healthy but it cannot be stressed enough, once you hit 30/40s, find a good cardiologist especially if you have a history of heart attacks in your family.
> Previously I used OVH online drive service, but it was EOL and pCloud is the replacement.

So a vendor has the power to disrupt you whenever they feel like EOLing the service you depend on. I understand that's as good as it gets today, but it's not good enough.

For me, the only acceptable level of impact is as follows:

* vendor X sunsets their service by date D

* before date D, I sign-up for a new account with vendor Z and configure it in my filesystem settings

* I set vendor X as "deprecated,EOL-date=D" in my filesystem settings.

Then my filesystem takes care of everything else for me transparently, with zero downtime and zero effort. Date D comes and goes and I haven't noticed a thing.
I wish you could see a sort of RGB gradient output of the stitching that occurs and observe the patterns between good outputs and dreamlike nightmares.

Something like a normal map or UV texture, you know? But instead it’s just an RGB output with solid colors representing individual source blending or contextual blending of some sort.
Insurance would probably pay them out nicely - your death at work is probably worth +1x your annual salary - maybe more.
People don't have to all run out at once and buy a new car right away. They'll just replace their current car whenever they were going to anyway. Prices will come down over time. Taxi services that don't have to pay drivers will be far more abundant and affordable in the meantime.

Spending that $10-$20 trillion by the government would mean collecting it all at once from people via taxes, not them spending it at their own discretion. That's a big difference.
