Yes, I agree, the format described here is more reasonable than YAML and would not suffer from the Norway problem.

I'm interested in what you mean when you mention shell scripts; I find it more idiomatic to write:

if [ true ]; then echo test; fi

Over

if [ yes ]; then echo test; fi

Because the behavior is more consistent when you try to use it in other constructs:

while true; do echo test; done

Versus

yes | while read _; do echo test; done

Or maybe

while yes | :; do echo test; done

There's also no "no" command. To get that effect, you'd have to confusingly write:

yes no

Is there a particular instance of yes/no in shell scripting that you had in mind?
The video on that site led me to [1] this video. That vehicle looks daunting to work on. I was imagining something much simpler and more modular but I guess it makes sense to have all those cooling lines. The cameo of the former Tesla employee was a nice touch.

OK, I really like how you're framing this in terms of the first-run experience.

Running "brew/pip install datasette" isn't much help if you don't have a SQLite database already. So now you need to learn to use "sqlite-utils" or similar too to create one... by which point I could absolutely see most people having dropped off already.

Tangentially related, but I'm reminded a little bit of Desert Bus, which was an unreleased bideo game from the mid-90s which was designed to be the most annoying video game to play.

The idea is that you're driving a bus from Tucson to Las Vegas in real time. The maximum speed of the bus is 45 mph so it takes about eight hours. The bus constantly tilts right so you have to constantly correct it's course, otherwise you'll drive off the road and have to be towed back (also in real time).

The only break in the monotony is a bug that splats on the windshield at around hour 5.

I guess we disagree here on this. I don't think it was due to racism because in context he was hinting about Jewish influence in the industry which IMO has more to do with the religion than where they are from.
It was dated back then. "Pimping" used like that goes back to the 70s. I was there.
I also have a box with them. At one point, they made a massive mistake with rebuilding a broken raid array and lost all the data on a 256gb slab I had, as well as for other customers. While the human error is incredibly concerning to me (luckily I had backups of critical data), I appreciated the immediate notification and offers of compensation for the data lost, as well as plans within the next few weeks to make their RAID array more robust going forward. At most providers I've had to actively seek out compensation for situations like these rather than have it offered to me within a day of the data loss.
Except certain resources are exclusive. For example, global human effort. How much global effort should be expended towards fighting climate change? In cases like these, people can't just accept their differences, a choice has to be made.
An interesting idea related to this: the pedagogical benefits of esotericism.

Melzer writes: “Just as education must begin by addressing the student where he is, so, as he learns and changes, it must stay with him. The internal or dialectical critique of received opinion takes place not in a single stroke but in a series of successive approximations to the truth, each of which will seem in its time to be the final one.”

> economic justice has to come first

Ecologically harmonious living is economical as well: your expenses are reduced, your health is improved, etc. In other words, ecologically harmonious living is economic justice. That's what that looks like in the real world: abundant (cheap) food, medicine, clothing, housing, etc.

The only downside to living in harmony with nature is for people who are committed to making money from waste (in the ultimate analysis.) E.g. GMO's are touted as solving world hunger, but really in practice they are used to lock-in corporate profits. The same company that sells you the poison sells you the seeds that resist the poison, seeds that you must buy each year: the contract states you can't save your own seed.

If you grow food in harmony with nature you don't need fertilizer ($$$) pesticide ($$$) GMO patented crop species ($$$) etc...

It's more profitable for the farmer and the product is healthier (reducing medical expenses, eh?)

Compare with, e.g.: Grow BIOINTENSIVE ( http://growbiointensive.org/ ) a system that uses around 5000f² (~450m²) per adult, produces a balanced complete diet, and increases soil volume and fertility year-on-year, while requiring no external inputs and little labor.

I have lots of other examples, poke me for more...

Anyway, the point is, "economic justice" is living in harmony with nature: they are the same thing.
If the EU wants tech innovation they need to make it financially profitable.

First step would be to push their own governments to use EU SaaS providers.

Second step is to expand PSD2 to include a visa/Mastercard alternative.
I totally agree with you that Tesla FSD seems more likely yo have a serious crash, but if actual fully autonomous cars are the end goal, then the behavior of learning/beta models doesn't really matter except to the extent that it let's them get to the end goal (for the sake of this argument).

All fully autonomous cars are in a different legal situation then Tesla. Tesla sells Joe Shmoe a car and then tells him he can rub FSD but he's responsible and has to remain attentive then they get info about every disengagement and (mostly) avoid legal responsibility or accidents in many cases.

Waymo is fully responsible for every accident, etc so they HAVE to proceed more cautiously or they'll lose the ability to run their cars. As someone else pointed out they often are only operated in very specific areas, and often even specific streets within a geofence. So while on the surface Waymo may have full self driving operating more effectively with less problems, they're doing so in a much more controlled environment and not getting the variety of data that Tesla has from cars disengaging Literally anywhere in the US.
> A particular example is using an animation library like Framer Motion that works with JS. It is somewhat possible to achieve similar effects in CSS, creating your own spring function in SCSS for example, to interpolate between values, but I'm not going to do that because it's effectively double the work for 1% of the users.

> > Doing only the JS version means you spend the same engineering effort but it doesn't work for as many people

Where did I say it would be the same engineering effort? I explicitly said it's more for the CSS version. In my example, the CSS version is inferior to what the JS library can already do. Creating a spring animation is only one of the things that Framer Motion can do in JS built in. If I did everything in (S)CSS I would basically be re-implementing Framer Motion, which, as I stated, is double the work for <1% of users. Why would I want to re-implement a package when it's already there for me to use? So yes, it "absolutely makes sense" to do everything in JS only.

It is very difficult for me to get in sync to this line of thought. CLI's are to hard to interact with, GUIs consume too many resources, so let's go back 30 years in time and use TUIs and improve them by e.g. other unicode chars? Why not just use a simple GUI framework instead, tkinter enters my mind?

I think the mistake was trying for full pattern recognition of the environment to control the car. Even human drivers need lane markers and traffic signals. They should make a custom "Botts Dot" that the AI can use to stay in the lanes. Every intersection should have a server broadcasting instructions to the vehicles to control traffic at that intersection. I'm not an expert, however.

My understanding is that they don't just differ between species, but they differ substantially between different types within the same individual.

My understanding is extremely limited.

That being said, my impression is that some of the axiis they can vary on include things like : how they respond to some other chemicals ("neurotransmitters"? not sure if that's the right word) in their environment, whethether they produce/emit those other chemicals, the types of conditions under which they fire (e.g. from how much they "leak" activation over time, counteracting the signals they get sent from others), things like uh,
I think(?) whether they tend to fire at a particular rate by default which can be increased or decreased by signals they receive(?) vs whether they by default do not fire unless they receive enough other signals,

I'm unsure of basically all the things I just listed, but my impression is that there are lots of ways they can differ, and they definitely aren't all the same.

Unicode support requires incorporating their database into a library. At a minimum you need to know which code points are combining chars. For a language with five to ten year update cycles should everyone be stuck with outdated data if the Unicode standard is revised in the interim?

> But unlike nuclear -- the price of which increased continuously from the 60s through early 90s while production was the highest it has ever been

This is the complete opposite of reality. Nuclear saw it's largest period of growth during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Following the mid 1970s growth tapered off, and higher prices ensued as economies of scale were lost.

I would argue that most “apps” built with React Native don’t need to be apps at all, they are better as websites.

The majority of these apps are about placing the existing product into the App Store for discoverability, and encouraging users to be “locked” into the app at the expense of a worse customer experience.

A web app, in a browser, automatically has support for opening multiple pages as multiple tabs, bookmarks, sharing pages. You can’t do that with 99.9% of apps.

I will also argue strongly that, again, react native is unnecessary even if you do want to package a native app. WebView based apps perform as well as a react native app, and most of the time with significantly less additional code. It also forces you to up your “mobile website” UX. In general the minuet you build a mobile “app” the mobile web experience gets neglected.
Love that story. I would absolutely flip out if it happened to my wife or kids even knowing what I do.
And on the IBM PC (which, incidentally, was the best for high-performance UIs; better than anything one could do on Unix TTYs).

A related trick was to adjust the colors so that, for example, the background for one character looks like foreground of an adjacent character. I used this to draw thick boxes in one program without wasting a couple extra rows of display. (Though the trick was revealed if you did a B&W screenshot printout. There was no text selection&copy&paste in MS-DOS at the time.)
As a counterpoint to the (nevertheless valid) comments out here, I’d personally like a product that offers “stories” and other social-media-like features that’s privacy respecting and not based on advertising and stealing personal information.

Should it be in Signal itself? Maybe not. But I’d love a Snapchat equivalent (or similar social media product) from the makers of Signal that doesn’t stalk its users.
Oh, I'm Croatian, having lived in Canada for a quarter of a century, and fully agree. I've rented a car last few times in Croatia. My wife is Canadian and our favourite time was when we got sick of phenomenally over-crowded tourist destinations, turned off gps, and followed smaller and smaller roads we were convinced were taking us in right direction, until a dirt path petered out in somebody's vineyard :)
the solutions are there, we implemented them in the post-war era, and they worked, massively reducing inequality until about the early to mid-1970s, where due to a number of reasons, lots of Western economies slowed down, especially the UK and the US, and the free-market Milton-Friedman-inspired right got into power and more or less has been since then. their policies creating overall growth, yes, but at the expense of wage growth and (after an initial bump from selling off public property) living standards.

as a related aside, if someone ever tells you that taxes are at an all-time high so we must reduce them, take a look at the top marginal tax rates in the UK and US in the mid-60s. or corp tax back then

the way to actually solve these problems was told to us by Keynes. the problem is that the political will is just not there. that's where we need a solution. how do you circumvent the capital-holding elite [to use a meaningless word]?
You’ve got to expound on this a little more because 300-400% efficiency doesn’t make sense.
If the data doesn't have the details required to build accurate models, then the data is just costing Tesla money. Since Tesla's are just cameras only, with telemetry, they can replay scenarios with existing roads, but what happens when someone cones off half of the road?
This is where I see the problem being with autonomous vehicles, too. They can only react to other vehicles, they can't predict them.

Humans are good at predicting.

You don't consciously know you've seen the guy a couple of cars in front checking his mirror and his shoulder but you're hanging back because you just know he's going to pull out any second. The guy that's wavering a bit in the middle lane is about to dash across to the far lane of the sliproad that's coming up, clipping the zebra stripes a bit, because he's concentrating on the sat nav not the road, but you just know - out of all the other drivers in your space at the moment - that red Ford is the one that's going to do something boneheaded.

Autonomous Vehicles won't be able to do that, probably not ever.
> The stable release with these fixes will probably be 5.19.16.

Updating my own comment (too late to edit), that release is now out with the fixes. The full set of stable releases with these fixes is: 6.0.2, 5.19.16, 5.15.74, 5.10.148, and 5.4.218 (source: https://lwn.net/Articles/911272/).

The website seems like it needs an explanation of what this is for and when you’d want to use it; right now it leaves quite a lot to the imagination. (Also, the GitHub link in the corner (a) requires JavaScript for some reason instead of just being a normal link, and (b) goes to an empty repo so it doesn’t seem to be possible to use this thing.)

A big part of my confusion, I think, is that I’m not sure why you’d want to write code without type annotations. I can see a use for autogenerating them from code that doesn’t have any, but the first example on the page infers the return type of hello() as “t547061|string” which is rather more opaque than I’d prefer from a diagnostic. A big part of why I use TypeScript is because of the type annotations: both so future readers can understand my intent, and also to give the type checker hints about what I was thinking so it can point to exactly where I went wrong instead of going “this over here doesn’t work with that thing over there, I dunno, there’s probably something in the middle that’s not right.” So I’m curious what your thoughts are on why you dislike annotations and how to make type errors clear without leaning on them for support.
The way I remember it, the bus didn't "tilt" so much as it was supposed to be a simulation of the alignment being off.
I assume "FE" means "form error" - personally I agree with you, but you can still make it work without it.. "progressive enhancement" where validation is still done serverside which is an absolute must even if you do use JS for that.

Also, HTML5 validation is pretty darn powerful these days. Check it out if you haven't already.
That's completely not true.

If it's a FLOSS or similar copyright license, they'd be using the same copyright to display that copy. They don't need special permissions.

If a person uploads a non-permissive license (or sets a license that is as such), then they would be in the rights to set it to private and charge, or to remove it.

It's very suspicious that they do not force a license set, nor remove repos for no license.

It’s weird to me people forget how bad vision can be for driving and Exocet Tesla to somehow be better then our own eyes.

How often a do you encounter situations like bad fog/sun set/rain at night where it’s a total struggle to drive and you slow right down to a crawl and even then only do alright because of a ton of inference?

i think Tesla deciding to go vision only will be regarded of one of the greatest blunders is self driving history.

The 446Mhz was a nice touch, though it gives away that you're back in the EU; that part of the spectrum is firmly within the US amateur radio band plan (70 cm), and if this were a real road trip, transmitting without a license might bring some grief.
