You seem to be ignoring the importance of centuries of concern and acquired wisdom on how important good communication is, by emperors, CEOs, managers, ... etc., for maximizing the value of any relationship.

People are not interchangeable, with regard to any skill. This is even more so for communication which is a meta-skill over many skills.

The upside to greater communication effectiveness is higher performance with regard to skills downstream from communication (almost all of them, almost all the time).

Dismissing the job of adapting communication styles or substance to one side of any relationship just leaves upside potential on the table, or locks in unnecessary downside. This seems antithetical to what management is about - maximizing the value returned by those being managed.
Update: I found a good blog post that states the problem I feel: https://stephenanderson.medium.com/whats-wrong-with-dot-voti... with a possible solution it to then.
I am not sure there are any actual claims about the present that would lead a reasonable person to conclude their car currently has features that it does not.

I don't think it's anywhere near clear-cut fraud to say "you can pre-order this for a cheaper price" and to be wrong about your deadline estimates. Yes, if it never comes out or there is evidence they never even tried to make good on the offer, then you would be open to some kind of legal action. But clearly they are trying. If a bunch of owners want to try to argue that the timeline was promised and missed and do a class action to get their money back, that seems reasonable enough. But none of this seems to relate to actual safety issues or anything.
I didn't, it's just that 'vulnerability that requires a malicious app on macOS' is a much less interesting one that something like that for iOS.
At least with fiat currency you have a chance of getting the transaction reversed! Most people will not trust a currency where this is not possible, or at least they will hold it with a centralized trusted custodian who can offer transaction reversal—which defeats the purpose!

Got 8250. At some point it just becomes a matter of "how many words can you type separated by |", IMO. The design is very aesthetically pleasing, too.
My Quest Pro arrived yesterday. It’s the coolest new computer I’ve used since the iPad. They’re getting close to nailing the mixed reality form factor.

At the same time it feels like the Apple Lisa. Expensive hardware that’s clearly still not quite the end state, shipping with first-party software that’s barely past demo quality. There’s simply not very much to do on the Quest Pro so far, and the HoloLens trajectory suggests that real apps will be slow to arrive.

Still, it’s an entirely new style of computing and Meta has subsidized it by tens of billions of dollars already. I’ll try to enjoy it while it lasts.
The robot inventor set is awesome. Such a shame to see it being retired. :(
I grew up using mindstorms in FLL and I just began coaching a team this year. I'm pretty impressed with the new Spike Prime, and although it has its quirks, over all I'd say it's a good improvement over the last generation, plus I get to teach the kids python which has honestly been a blast!
^^^ have to emphasize.

60-80% of the cost base in many F500s is bullshit (exceptions exist. FMCG, any industry where physical products make up their balance sheet. Not salaries). Any excuse to avoid returning money to shareholders.

Everyone quietly acknowledges. If say, Visa, really tried, they could cut the cost base by 50% and achieve the same output.

Carl Icahn style shareholder activists have a point.

Forget tech companies. Most public companies are a conspiracy by VPs/C-suite/board.

The difference with tech companies is Google feather-beds its EMPLOYEES with free food.

From a pure capitalist standpoint. You could run Facebook's business on 20 billion USD in costs. Their cost base is enormous because Z has ZERO interest in cutting costs.

He's in it for the ego/vanity. Same as every other F500 CEO/Chairman.

Ego is the driver, not the balance sheet.
> From a utilitarian standpoint my guess is that the payoff is confidence.

That's definitely part of the rational behind the more general duty to provide assistance at sea:

"A master or individual in charge of a vessel shall render assistance to any individual found at sea in danger of being lost, so far as the master or individual in charge can do so without serious danger to the master’s or individual’s vessel or individuals on board."

If Tesla knowingly makes material false claims about what their cars can do, especially if they have internal evidence that people are using the feature dangerously in ways Tesla could have prevented, they're perpetrating fraud.

Most frauds are prosecuted in state court. There are several federal fraud statutes. For instance, wire fraud, which is any interstate fraud that uses telecommunications, has the following (paraphrased) predicates in the model jury instructions:

(1) You knowingly took part in a scheme to deceive people.

(2) The lies you told were material and caused people to spend money or give up property.

(3) You had an intent to cheat people out of money.

(4) You used some form of interstate telecommunications as part of the scheme.

Prosecutors don't have to prove that Tesla says "the car is fully autonomous today". They just have to prove that Tesla made statements that it knew weren't true, in order to get people to buy cars or Tesla stock. Those statements can be much narrower than "we have achieved full FSD", so long as they are material: that is, so long as they're significant enough to influence people's purchasing decisions.
With SLA resin at $90 a liter, I don't know much much money you'd actually save.
This is my thought. What happens when we have 10 million wind turbines out in the wild?
I don’t think past price is part of a stock’s fundamentals
Ludwig Von Mises might want to introduce us to the idea that value is quite relative. As exemplified in the fact that many people definitely value money/things over attention even though it's one of the scarcest resource along with time. It's constantly devalued through our marketing even though everything rests upon it. The Achilles heel of marketing and public relations.

Attention is enabled by a complex process definitely not reduced to time and consciousness(diet, nutrients, randomness, conditions, psychology, etc)

This idea that there is a measuring ruler and if you are not measuring your life by it your are a zombie is propaganda from the so called Buddhists or the new age crowd who didn't know to leave the boat after they crossed the water.
These things are just recruitment videos. They're made to get lots of views by being a little controversial. Their HR departments want people to see the free coffee, fancy office, etc.
IANAL but I think you could call it fraud if you never had any intention of delivering. E.g. if I kickstart a perpetual motion machine and then move to the Bahamas with the funds.

What's ironic is that despite his image as a genius no one ever holds Elon to account for his failure to accurately predict the state/progress of his own technology. He's either not as smart as people think or he's knowingly lying, but I think you have to pick one.
Overblown title.
-Its not the government but a private energy company

-The turbine is 20+ years old and was scheduled to be decommissioned at this time.

"A spokesperson for Energiekontor, which built and runs the rest of the windfarm, said a time limit to its operational permit meant it expected to have to dismantle the five remaining turbines by the end of 2023"

"Rebuilding the turbines to make way for the expanding mine was part of the original agreement that allowed the windfarm to be constructed in 2001, he added, and not a result of a recent change of German energy policy"
It is a crime because he is collecting money for it now.

At the minimum it is a violation of the "30 day rule." If you accept money for a preorder of something, you must clearly state a delivery date. If you do not, it is assumed within 30 days of an order.

Tesla can face FTC fines of $16,000 per Autopilot sale, in addition to lawsuits from consumer protection agencies in every state where a vehicle was sold with the undelivered feature.

This is why all the crowdfunding platforms are basically donations with "rewards" of products and not preorders.
Now you can run Ubuntu on a RISC-V computer that costs less than $20
Just imagine a Python interpreter written in Python. Then the interpreter could interpret its own code while interpreting its own code.

Autopilot in planes is not remotely as you described. It is used to reduce cognitive load precisely so pilots can pay more attention to higher cognitive demand tasks than maintaining straight and level flight. Such as collision avoidance, radio communication, navigation, briefing, etc.

Your point only alleges that amateur yacht drivers act irresponsibly, not that naval autopilot systems are inherently unsafe.

No, it's not. I have stopped donating from this account, not that it's any of your business.

Turning the tap on and off in my shower is zero effort, though? It literally takes 0 seconds.

I used to have a shower that didn't have a thermostat so it was fiddly to get the temperature right. That one I'd lean in and out, sure.
If I do nimble build -d:lto -d:danger --passC:-march=native I get 1920 fps while if I do nimble build -d:lto -d:release --passC:-march=native I still get 1775 fps. So, at least for Nim, the checks are only a 1.08x slowdown..Not so bad compared to the 2521 vs 1626 = 1.55x Zig-Rust slowdown on the author's machine.

Heck, I see 1.33x differences in run times between the first & second run of the rust branch of his benchmark, but only 1.05x diffs in run times between 1st & 2nd Nim branch.

In my experience, reasoning about things like this is rarely as simple as "bounds checks" which are (often) the most highly predictable branches.
Sure, I just wonder if there actually are any such statements. Seems like usually people point to statements that are Elon tweeting "I think it might be ready next year".
> it's obvious these people have a pointless axe to grind.

> I am convinced other comments cannot read, or willfully misread OP, in order to signal their virtue.

You are interpreting ParksNet's comment charitably. You aren't doing the same for those who replied to it. (In fact, you're very close to breaking the site guidelines, both on charitable interpretation and on personal attacks.)

For the record, I replied before ParksNet edited their comment to be less "if our demographics look like Central America, our school outcomes will look like Central America", which seemed more directly racist.
I couldn't find a good article talking about the topic that was from a vaguely neutral site, so I've simply linked directly to the user agreement. Search for "$2,500" and you'll find the paragraph which is almost exactly (or perhaps exactly) the same as the original language that they said was added "by mistake" a few weeks ago.
Nice! They've introduced the "aria-*"-variants I had previously been adding via their plugin API.

Mike Davis, prophetic writer on disaster and social unrest, dies aged 76
That makes sense because pypy can JIT a ladder of if/else to a compare/jump conditional each whereas a dict lookup can be an order of magnitude more complex. If they're 8bit opcodes, maybe having a list based lookup table will perform similarly on py3000 and still optimize on pypy?

Or maybe https://docs.python.org/3/library/array.html rather than list.
Heard this many times since the whole Musk/twitter thing started, yet no one actually comes up with any action he did.

Especially on twitter itself its a very common "argument", usually followed by the burden of proof fallacy calming that it is "common knowledge" and its up to me to research if I dont already know the free speech "wrongdoings" of Musk.
> I always thought the Autopilot name and the claims about having all the equipment for FSD were basically fraudulent and Tesla would be liable for false advertisement

Same. I thought they'd get slapped hard and forced to stop doing that YEARS AGO.

Instead they doubled down and started selling "full self driving"

lmao.
Isn't 'soon' 3 years from now? And it'll definitely impact PCs more than 7-10 years old at that point, but that's kind of a hard number to get worked up about. If it's that big a deal, when the deadline gets closer buy a new-to-you 7 year old machine for a couple hundred dollars.
> Expensive hardware that’s clearly still not quite the end state, shipping with first-party software that’s barely past demo quality.

"Built for a Future That Still Isn't Here" is a headline I saw somewhere that resonates well with your comment.
I spent around 45 hours there in my first walkthrough, can imagine how did you beat it so fast, but can't understand why.
See my comment upthread. If you accept a preorder you must offer a firm delivery date. If you cannot make that date, your only option under the law is a refund. You can't push the date back.
It's not important per se, but it's a perfect microcosm of contemporary German energy policy.

Eliminate the clean energy sources, put up a facade of green power which is then bulldozed to facilitate the dirty coal baseload power they now completely rely on.
Do you have children?

You don't need to answer that. It is a rhetorical question. But consider what you wrote relative to good parenting, regardless of ages.

Nobody stops learning. On any measure, hopefully as long as we live, we are all still children relative to where we will be in a decade or two.

Mentoring, books, feedback, encouragement are valuable to give and receive throughout our lives because there is always another level of skill and wisdom to be achieved.

They had really great (and different) design pieces, with collaboration with new designers and good prices. It’s a bit of a shame because there’s not really a replacement in their market segment, above Ikea and others, but below luxury brands enough to be affordable. That I know of.

Probably many factors contributed to their downfall, UK economy is not great atm.
Framing a question like “a system has a high load average, what commands would you use to begin diagnosing that?” and taking that conversation as deep as the candidate can go is neither time consuming nor requires a panel of people.

Seems like since they are delivering things, albeit slowly, and spending tons of money developing it, that it would be hard to make that stick.

Take a look at the net losses for Meta’s Reality Labs for the full years 2019 through 2022:

2019: Net loss of $4.5 billion on $501 million in revenue
2020: Net loss of $6.62 billion on $1.14 billion in revenue
2021: Net loss of $10.19 billion on $2.27 billion in revenue
2022: Net loss of $13.21 billion on $1.72 billion in revenue
100% not shocked at all.

I recall a couple of times over the past 15-20 years where a current python significantly outperformed a current php version, but my recollection is that php was usually a bit faster, or sometimes a lot faster.

PHP 7 was released on dec 2015, and gained significant speed bumps and better memory usage, with the average php execution time being cut in half, or more, generally without any code change whatsoever. It was quite remarkable.

The path from 7.x-8.1 so far has generally seen incremental speed bumps again - usually somewhere between 3-8% improvements per release. Obviously this is going to be dependent on use cases, but overall it's been a fairly steady set of speed improvements over the last 7 years.

there's one quote in Ben Thompson's recent Meta article that I really buy. If you look from this angle many Meta's moves make sense

Opposing anecdotes will not be available.
CPython can be fast once you eliminate the main bottleneck: the interpreter itself.

Processing loops adds a lot of overhead because the interpreter has to make the case jumps after each loop. Figuring out a way to minimize that overhead by using built-in data structures and stdlib library will speed up your code by an order of magnitude.

Don't forget, the built-in types are already running in C.
The problem here is that Netflix / Disney / Youtube won, but politicians aren't worrying about Netflix. They barely worry about Youtube because it is less overtly political.

The currency of the future is the currency of the past - the prevailing story, the mental model that people hold and fit their evidence in.

That mental model varies hugely - it provides the difference between Republicans and Democrats, between Autocracy and Liberty. Polls show the biggest divide based on college education - the models picked up or more likely challenged and discarded in higher education provide a stark differentiator for modern voting trends.

Control the mental model, and the facts hardly matter.
Hopefully legislated right-to-repair can open the door to aftermarket mods, including phone body with new switches that can electrically disconnect specific sensors.
What I mean is that from a hiring company's POV an in-demand candidate who won't submit to nonsense because they can afford to will usually be a liability due to the power imbalance. They will either not need the company and bypass them in the first place, or create the risk of dangling interest for a long time before ghosting or declining.

Of course, for the target company itself that is looking for hires the employee in question may well be great but the incentives are not always aligned with that of the hiring company
At this point, is the difficulty in amending the Constitution actually a bug? Seeing the polarization, I could see our Founding Fathers deciding that's actually a feature right now because it prevents one side from getting the upper hand and telling the rest to stuff it.

Marketing-fueled hype.
The heart of the issue in Germany right now is that the Green Party is absolutely dogmatically opposed to anything having to do with nuclear - they're trading out good clean energy sources for an increased reliance on natural resources because of deeply rooted and fundamentally wrong belief that nuclear is not and can never be a clean energy source.
Am I the only one thinking this is a good thing ?

I barely made it past the first 20 minutes before giving up for MD. Somehow the experience was wildly different from the HR despite the mechanics being mostly the same.

One thing I think was a big contributing factor to my enjoyment of the first game was the soundtrack. The first time you enter the Sarif Industries building and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAljZX-9HMI starts playing - chills.
I wonder what the performance would be if the code would have been compiled with GraalVM.
This is sad. Lego Mindstorms played a huge role in my life trajectory. I discovered RCX and NXT in middle school, absolutely loved building stuff with them and went to robotics competitions.

It got me really interested in robotics to the point where I decided I would move halfway across the world for college to get educated further in robotics. I did that and I am now a professional roboticist. None of that would’ve happened if it wasn’t for Lego Mindstorms. Sad to see it go. Their spike prime kit looks way too basic compared to how mature and extensible the mindstorms ecosystem is.
Who knows, maybe that's the long term plan.
