I agree, they don't do a fantastic job of justifying the title. However, #1 and #2 are related, and the article does try to explain why they cause less safety. More people biking means both fewer cars, and people driving cars are more aware of bikers.

> Safety in Numbers is a straightforward concept: More people on bikes creates safer conditions on our streets. The National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO), which represents professional planners from 81 cities from around the United States, pointed this out in their own pushback on NTSB’s recommendations.

+1. I can't speak to Windows but I suspect it's similar: if you're running a well-implemented native app (ex. Pixelmator) the responsiveness is entirely there and in fact significantly better than it was in the 90s. Even fairly graphically heavy apps have no issues resizing and otherwise being real-time interactive.

I would hazard that the vast majority of "jank" you see in desktop apps today is due to cross-platform code. A large portion of this is webviews (ex. Slack), but some of it is also poorly-implemented shims between the platform's native APIs and shoehorning that into some cross-platform library (ex. Photoshop).
Number of cyclists on the streets is incredibly important to safety. If drivers aren't expecting cyclists they pay less attention to them and aren't as practiced in how to drive safely around cyclists.

No. It's pretty clear what the state of the art is.

For the rest of your questions I'd say I do spend a lot of time thinking about what intelligence is.
Officially, they're supposed to go into read-only mode. In practice, out of the around 2 dozens of failures I've seen, a single one was still readable and the rest were complete loss of data. I wouldn't count on it, personally.
Right, so: you take the kind of raw meat that is so thick that any contaminants you might get during carving is surface contamination, then cover it in a substance that kills any bacteria or molds that it comes into contact with, making sure to use enough salt to prevent subsequent contamination for as long as it takes for the surface to dry and form an impenetrable layer, and then we let it age for however long we like because it is now physically impossible for surface contaminants to make it into the meat anymore.

Which is completely different from leaving wet meat to just hang out at room temperature for many hours.

The Making of Dune II: The birth of the real-time strategy game
Head injuries are also the most common thing that kills drivers. Your argument provides an equally strong case that drivers should be required to wear helmets.

The hierarchy of helmet need is #1 motorcyclists, #2 drivers, #3 pedestrians–pedestrian head injuries are incredibly common–, and #4 cyclists.
>“The rank and file air marshals are going to refuse to deploy and risk termination,” David Londo, a 16-year DHS employee and president of the Air Marshal National Council, told the Washington Examiner on Tuesday. “You’re almost going to have a mutiny of a federal agency, which is unheard of.”

I think the US would be better having a clearer line between civilian and military branches. It feels really weird to me that they are (self) describing this as a mutiny and talking about refusing to "deploy". But they are just employees right? Not soldiers?

There's a small typo around 1/3rd of the way down: It reads "Alomogordo New Mexico." The city should be rendered "Alamogordo."

It's also something of a persistent anachronism that lends itself to the historic population centers, I suspect. The actual test location was at Trinity Site, which is closer to present day Socorro and Carrizozo[1] than to Alamogordo and detonated on the north end of what was then called the "Alamogordo Bombing Range." This location is now a part of the broader White Sands Missile Range. It gives me some amusement as a local, because we occasionally hear the question "Oh, Alamogordo? That's where they tested the bomb, isn't it?!"

I hate to disappoint their curiosity, of course, but according to present day geography, no; historically—kind of—if you consider everything was then associated with Alamogordo, including the army air base! To us, Trinity Site is 80 miles to the north/northwest and on the other side of the Oscura Mountains (north of the San Andres Mountains)!

> How does imprisoning someone help the victims in any way? People have some really fucked up ideas of justice.

Sending people to prison for committing crimes is "fucked up"? We can quibble over which crimes deserve what sentence, but we shouldn't outright dismiss the possibility of imprisoning white collar criminals.
They likely have used their good cyber weapons already and are now less useful than suicide drones and cruise missiles.

Knock out a grid with cyber, ok the enemy is prepared and can do a hard reset. Power loss of a few minutes, hours at most. Then that attack vector is gone as cyber defenses are put in place.

Blow up a substation, you have bigger problems. Power loss for several hours or days.

Russia can still do “low tech” cyber attacks like DDoS, but this war is making a case for cyber weapons being more useful during pseudo-peacetime clandestine espionage than a consistently equivalent tool to bullets and bombs.
When I buy something I should get what I paid for. It isn’t greedy, it is a square deal.

If you choose to remove what I paid for or at least put a passive aggressive requirement for me to email you after posting your sob story in order to continue to get what I paid for, that isn’t a a square deal.

Look it isn’t that much money, and I’m sure the developer could use more, but the right thing to do is to grandfather those people in, instead of now guilt tripping them into paying more. You can post the appeal and explain the same way without suspending current lifetime licenses. It’ll do a lot more for goodwill than going the other way for it.
> They have extremely impressive prices, but I've always been hesitant to use them for anything important because they've historically been known for very aggressively shutting down your service if their automated systems detect e.g. suspicious traffic.

I came here to say the same thing. I've had production servers shut down by Hetzner with zero warning. And I believe they also kept the hardware running and continued charging you for it...just without network. As a result of this experience, I now consider Hetzner unusable for production systems.

Why:

Avoid time wasting nit-picks on PRs.

Consistent formatting may be easier to quickly read.

Why not:

Avoid taking a dependency.

Avoid "fix formatting" commits (or the complexity of having a system auto-apply formatting).

Formatters don't always make the most readable code. Sometimes non-standard formatting actually communicates more clearly.
Here is an interesting, consistent ChatGPT failure mode that showcases how it can be extremely assertive about objectively incorrect replies.

Try asking it to write a sentence according to simple rules. For example, "Write a sentence where the first letter of each word is in alphabetical order, e.g. 'a dog eats flavored kibble.'"

Here is an example of a resulting chat transcript:

Me: Write a sentence where the first letter of each word is in alphabetical order, e.g. "a dog eats flavored kibble."

ChatGPT: An abacus allows Bob to count quickly.

Me: Incorrect. You put "to" before "count," but it comes after in the alphabet.

ChatGPT: I apologize if my response was not correct. Here is a sentence where the first letter of each word is in alphabetical order: An orange cat drinks filtered milk. Is there anything else I can help you with?

Me: Incorrect. You put "orange" before "cat."

ChatGPT: I apologize if my response was not correct. Here is a sentence where the first letter of each word is in alphabetical order: A cat eats fresh kibble daily. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Me: Incorrect. You put "kibble" before "daily."

ChatGPT: I apologize if my response was not correct. Here is a sentence where the first letter of each word is in alphabetical order: A cat eats fresh daily kibble. Let me know if you have any other questions.

... and so on

The interesting thing here is that it does not give up on the task with its standard prompt that it is incapable of certain tasks, but rather continues to produce incorrect output indefinitely, asserting that the sentences are in alphabetical order.

Other tasks in the same vein it fails at:

— Write a sentence where each word is longer than the previous one, e.g. "I do not know where family doctors acquired illegibly perplexing handwriting."

— Write me a sentence about bees that does not use the letter "e."

— Write me a palindrome about a subway.

For each of these prompts, it will confidently produce totally incorrect output indefinitely. In the case of the palindrome, it even includes the definition of a palindrome in its output, and asserts that its response fits the definition:

Me: Write me a palindrome about a subway

GPT: A subway was seen, so neat and clean. A man named Dwayne on it was keen. He rode it forth, then back again, and the palindrome is now complete.

Me: That is not a palindrome.

GPT: You are correct, a palindrome is a word, phrase, or sequence of characters that reads the same backward as forward. My previous response did not meet that criteria. Here is a new palindrome that specifically references a subway:

"A Santa at NASA sat on a subway"

In this palindrome, the letters in the sentence read the same backward and forward, fulfilling the criteria of a palindrome.

Me: The letters in that sentence do not read the same backward and forward.

... and so on

> I suppose that's because you have mailboxes outside with little flags rather than letterboxes in doors

That's mostly only rural areas. Where I am, the houses either have letter slots in the door as you described, or a letter box attached to the house next to the front door.

Our previous place had a letter slot. But the place we just moved into has put the letter box next to the side door, at the end of the driveway. It's hit-or-miss where deliveries will get left, but most of the time it's at the front door, the one we don't check on a regular basis because we're usually going out the side door to get to our cars.
Let me know when it scales.
Hm why assume that? would never have thought to do that.
Back when mandatory seatbelt laws were debated, people used to concoct scenarios where a rider/driver is saved because they're not wearing a seatbelt (they were "thrown clear").

This reminds me of that. Your "safety in numbers" and "cars pass closer to helmeted cyclists" is a desperate attempt to avoid a simple fact:

if a head hits the pavement without a helmet, it gets injured.

Of course you can invent other scenarios, but only by ignoring that one.
Well, per capita is pretty meaningless, as the Dutch ride so much more per person.

Anyway there should be more discussion about what kind of bicycle.

Racing bikes go fast, your feet are in toeclips, you're in a bent down position - those things are dangerous. And everybody in the Netherlands wears a helmet riding them.

E-bikes can go very fast, cars underestimate their speed, people wear helmets.

But city or transport bikes, they go very slow (like 15km/h), you sit upright and can easily evade trouble or put a foot to the ground. Falls happen and old people break legs or hips sometimes, but to hit the ground with your head would be very very unusual. Those are the bikes we don't use helmets on.

I think most riders in the US ride racing bikes.
That's not true, a business can't discriminate on race, gender, etc. But crypto ownership is ok. We draw the line at race and gender, but it's not a free for all

You do not have the same visibility of the lateral extent of your car as a cyclist has of the lateral extent of their bicycle. I've maneuvered at somewhat high speed through gaps that were only like 5 cm wider than me on each side. You can't do that on a car; you just don't have that kind of line of sight.

You are in the minority of drivers. Most people want updated tech in their cars, including (what I consider to be) very valuable backup cameras. I'm shocked to see this sentiment about "dumb" vehicles rising on HN.
It depends a lot on what kind of crime you're dealing with.

This isn't a matter of teaching the executives of Hertz that no, they don't need to commit crimes to survive, and how to access alternative means of survival, and all that.

They did this because they were greedy, lazy, and they knew they wouldn't suffer much for it. When you're dealing with white-collar sorts of crimes like this, deterrence is a thing.
I actually talked to the drifting in space team about our experience implementing multiplayer. Really cool to see their findings!

While we _could_ support it, any minor update to the text would result in the comment being marked 'stale' with a high false positive rate.

Why you have shadow it and how to fix it
There is a massive difference in residential HVAC techs and commercial HVAC work. I had three bids from different contractors in my house and I specifically called out the whistling return vent, showed them how it sucks the filter in. The filter grill was clearly under sized for the CFM the AHU was pulling. Not one of them thought that was anything to be concerned about. None of them knew the first thing about manual D and calculating CFM for ductwork.

I can only recommend you do the homework and tell them exactly what you want installed. ie; be your own specification engineer. Anyone that's actually good at this sort of work goes commercial exclusively, that's where the money is.
I use K9 Mail with Migadu.

Feature-wise, nothing really caught my attention compared to Gmail. At the time that I switched, however, K9 Mail was noticeably snappier for me, had no Google Play Services dependency, and weighed about 7MB to Gmail's 50MB (at the time).
You only have DMCA protection if you are a (reasonably) neutral host.

"Bob's airplane video emporium of only good airplanes" does not get DMCA protection. If Bob violates copyright, he can't hide behind DMCA.

If Youtube wants the DMCA safe harbor, they have to be (reasonably) neutral _and_ follow the DMCA. That includes restoring videos on counter claim.

Youtube can still do a TOS takedown. "We restored your video but then found it has boobs in it and have removed it." Totally fine.

They can't receive a valid counter claim and then decide to not follow.
The need to educate a person not to waste food or about one's privileged life has absolutely no dependence on your example, nor is the latter inherently about racism, unless that is your actual motivation, or a real life counterexample. You just pointed to a convolution of stereotypes about a continent, which is quite the irony when you wish to teach about privilege.

And your lame counter-accusation is basically a common rebuke of your average actual racist.
I can't tell if this is sarcasm, so I will answer without sarcasm:

Yes, they should be held responsible (for some value of "responsible"). It is ultimately their responsibility, which goes along with the power they wield. It's what they signed up for. And this doesn't absolve the people who directly caused the issue. You want leadership to focus on ensuring that their delegates are competent and not corrupt.

There are some shades of gray here, of course. In the US, these leadership positions don't have absolute power. It isn't necessarily their *fault*. But it is absolutely their *responsibility*.

In cities with bike shares, a significant number of short distance bike trips are on the bike share (like, 50% plus range). Requiring a bike helmet eliminates those people that are walking around and decide to use a bike share to go 2 miles.

Tying a helmet to a bike can result in theft and weathering (rain).

The article goes to describe that it is the secondary effects that are important. Ie, it's better to have 100 cyclists on a road with 50% helmet usage, than it is to have 3 with 100% usage.

I've seen campaigns and memorial stickers asking drivers to watch for motorcycles. So it is not dissimilar for pedal bikes, except the safety effect for driver awareness is even more important for non-motorized bikes. Which is essentially the non-intuitice conclusion of the article.
Can, needs or should, I would add. My perspective doesn't seem to be very popular, however I could never understand how laws that are intended to protect us only from ourselves are compatible with the philosophy of law that we're supposingly embracing in the west.

The only rational argument for these laws would be the burden on the national-health system for injuries sustained on the head during riding a bike. This could be solved by allowing people to opt-out of the free national health system coverage explicitly in these instances of injuries, if indeed statistics show that there is a significant burden imposed on it. And still there is the counter-argument that this would be biased -what about people who are engaging into leisure activities with higher-risk, "extreme-sports" and such. I wouldn't be surprised if even the cost of treating normal sports-related injuries is higher than the cost of head-related injuries of bikers riding with no helmet. Why not enforce wearing full protective gear when engaging in every sport?

If we start with this mentality, it's only a slippery slope that would lead us in a place we don't want to be.

Same as with smoking taxes. It started with the justification that it's fair to counteract the increased cost that smokers have on the national health system. A perfectly fair reasoning. But by now these taxes have increased so much that this justification is no longer convincing -instead they are widely accepted as a sort of "luxury tax" that smokers pay, no longer to cover the cost of the medical treatment they are more likely to receive on average, but just "because that's how it is". This income is not even earmarked for the health system in many cases. They also started covering things that evidence don't support they pose any or as much of a risk as cigarette smoking (Vaping), and in some cases -Italy, IIRC-, even with official lawmaker justification that these products deprive the state from tax income that they would receive through the smoking tax. A completely illogical argument that I was surprised to see it made nobody blink twice.

So I think such laws are really a demonstration of government acting as a for-profit entity, squeezing money from whatever they think they can get away with.
Sorry about that -- I meant that my recommendation was made with a friendly attitude. I have been giving 10% of my income to charities recommended by GiveWell for over 10 years now. I am very serious and think more people should know of GiveWell's work and follow their recommendations.
That's the legal reason but not the business reason, which is the actual driver and what causes the legality to occur.
To add to this, a nuclear bomb is nothing more than collecting enough weapons grade fuel into one location. Once you have a critical mass, kaboom!

Nuclear reactor fuel, on the other hand, even if it is stolen can't do much more than get really hot. It's not possible (without a lot of expensive post processing) to turn regular reactor fuel into a bomb.
