That highly depends on the lidar system. All players are working a lot on minaturizing LIDAR systems and they fundamentally don't have to be as big as the waymo systems.

Summary of industry responses to mandatory [CSAM] transparency notices [pdf]
Not that I enjoy being a downer, but I think we're still quite a ways off from a trajectory towards Star Trek society. Clean energy production is absolutely key, with pollution and climate change being big obstacles to a prosperous future, but clean energy doesn't solve all air and water pollution. It won't necessarily scale economically. It also doesn't temper any megalomaniac's pride, to stop them from creating conflict as they try to subjugate everyone else. We live in a very divided, hierarchical world with a fragile order, subject to the whims of people with godlike power over the masses.

One of the most fantastical aspects of Star Trek was the societal evolution into one without interpersonal conflict, the idea being that without scarcity there's no good reason for conflict... I'm just not sure how well that would hold up, knowing people. I don't think all desire for status and power stems from scarcity of resources, and people will continue to lie and do harm to each other as long as they desire power over others.

> My kids are likely to spend the majority of their lives living a world where energy is clean, cheap, and available to everyone.

Being available to everyone does depend on who "everyone" is. If people use the energy to grow food (and more people) until we run into some other population-limiter, we'll always have too many people. Part of achieving sustainability is ending runaway growth. Maybe you can ask people nicely enough to stop reproducing, maybe education will do it, maybe nothing short of force will. Yet our economics were built around continual growth. So, that's all a big problem to solve, still.

I faked my life using AI [video]
Waymo first deployed on public roads in 2019

(I appreciate 2019 feels like 7 years ago)
Check out the live demo! https://richardanaya.github.io/wasm-service/

Last month I contributed the todos functionality to this project after it was submitted to HN. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33228891

I think this is a great idea and could eventually enable htmx projects to transition from server-side-only to being a PWA with very little code changes (given the right backend).

Unfortunately this particular implementation exhibits some blocking issues which I was not able to solve yet:

1. The Service Worker is eventually unloaded from memory, which means all data is lost because it currently stores everything in memory. This isn't a defect as much as it is lacking a persistence feature; this is a MVP (emphasis on minimal) after all. The most promising solution in my opinion would be to use the OPFS/File System Access API with SQLite, which is yet to be shipped in all browsers.

2. The bigger issue is that once the SW is unloaded it doesn't come back. The SW getting reaped after being idle is fine, that's part of the expected behavior. But there are no events or any other indication that it was disconnected, at some point it just stops intercepting requests. I don't know why. If anyone can chip in here to say why it does this and how I can detect or somehow restart SW fetch interception on demand I would be glad to hear it.

( For some more detail see the "# Remaining Issues" in my PR #5: https://github.com/richardanaya/wasm-service/pull/5 )
Not GP, and I can only answer for myself, but:

Personally, I use it to connect my home devices as if they were always together on the same LAN, even when they're not. E.g. Raspberry Pi, home NAS, "home" server that's actually in a different physical location, etc. All accessible anywhere at any time, even (say) from my laptop in a moving vehicle, without connections dropping even when my IP changes. It really is like magic.

At work, we use it so that remote employees can access locally-hosted applications, office NAS, etc. ACLs make it easy to employ the principle of least privilege, so that having a route into the office LAN doesn't immediately mean any and every device is compromised.
I have it on all my personal and family servers and devices. I use it so that for both myself and my family all our internal stuff (unraid network shares, jellyfin, homepages, photo backups, etc, etc) "just works" for the less technical members of the family even when they're not at home. It seamlessly detects when the peer is local so it doesn't route out to the internet and back, has an easy ACL to segment things (wife's phone doesn't need access to dd-wrt), and a bunch of other features.

We've been able to do this with existing VPNs for a long, long time, but tailscale is by far the most painless offering I've ever used and I migrated away from OpenVPN completely.
It is indeed a shame that no alternative OS is available for iPhone. With how long its taking to get Macs to boot Linux without caveats though, one can understand why it never happened.

Hopefully, the ability to select an OS upon boot will come to iPhone someday.
All ideas that are true generally, when treated as axioms (and then devoid of the context from which they were derived) eventually lead to irrational thought and behavior. "Modern" economic theory and investor capitalism seem to have perverted, "a rising tide lifts all boats," into becoming accustomed to surfing on tidal waves.
Don't gotta worry about Marx's critique of alienation if we don't need you to do anything
> you seem to think this is the only purpose and only effect

Nobody said that. You said the Fed's balance sheet "movements...have little to do with rates." That's false. That's the main reason it buys and sells. That there are also other motivations and effects is not a counterargument.

> rates would have gone deeply negative while the Fed kept printing QE for 15 years

Why? Rates went down and were held down. Selling a dollar of bonds doesn't lock rates to a specific level, it directionally nudges them.

> Fed doesn't control rates by buying and selling ABS and treasuries

Agreed—mortgages are different. Those were bought to pursue market stability, not purely monetary, goals. Treasuries, on the other hand, are absolutely a credit-channel monetary intervention, albeit on the tail [1].

> Fed controls rates by intervening in money markets (short term funding between banks)

Yes, those interventions are it buying and selling securities [2]. If banks have cash from sold assets, they don't need to borrow as much and can more freely lend (and vice versa).

Well, the example came up of Musk intending to buy Twitter and then trying to back out. The plausible justification for flip-flopping is that an internal review unveiled information that would justify this. It's really not hard to imagine.

That lead to a refined claim that Musk said he would not even perform this sort of review and then changed his mind, but without a clear source attached I'm not sure if this is actually what Musk said.

This project has seemingly picked up a bunch of traction. The number of times it has appeared on the front page of this website serves as some indication, as well as the plethora of conference talks.

You seemed unwilling to put more than 2 minutes into looking at an example, or 10 seconds into checking what page you were on, yet felt that your experience warranted these dismissive comments which cumulatively proportionally surely took up just as much time.

You aren’t acting in good faith. This doesn’t add to the conversation at all.
Not entirely different from getting on a plane? You have to listen to the safety protocol before take-off.
Turning off these services for UT99 is in such bad taste. I mean, their Unreal Engine was borne from Unreal Tournament. Considering their success with Fortnite they should be able to provide these services forever.

Does Toyota even have a reasonably long range PHEV?

The Chevy Volt with it's 53mi electric range was, what I had hoped, would be the harbinger of long electric range cars (say, 100mi electric + 500mi gas).

Instead we have EVs that barely do 250mi range and PHEVs with minuscule electric ranges.
Yeah. Soon Twitter will be dead for OSINT.

They banned almost every account using ADS-B:

These Twitter accounts were very useful to track movements of Putin's cronies and spread the information. Now thanks to Elon this is no longer possible.
The CEO of binance was upset about it enough to privately message his competitor. Who should we believe, his supposedly private actions, or you.
I agree with you 100%. For all of humanities fallibleness, every averted nuclear close call was due to having a human in the loop[0] in one way or another. For instance, in 1960 Norway's sunrise was interpreted by radar in Greenland as a nuclear attack by the Soviet Union. Thankfully there were no automated responses, and humans in the loop realized the error quite quickly once they assessed all the surrounding facts

Sounds like the plot of some sort of dystopian sci-fi novel (as in, I'm pretty sure I've read one where that was more or less part of the plot, but can't remember what it was...I'm pretty sure it wasn't A Scanner Darkly at any rate)
I don't think jQuery UI's move into maintenance mode is not that much of a concern. They are not the only clients.

The foundation lists jQuery under its Impact Projects which are described as:

> Impact projects are on a sustaining cycle of development, maintenance, and long-term support. These projects are used commonly in enterprise production environments and have large, well-established project communities.

> ...

> They receive ongoing financial and marketing support from the Foundation, and are expected to cross-promote the foundation along with their activities.

This seems to me like they expect to continue to support jQuery for the foreseeable future.
You can "do this until the cows go home", but that's about as valuable as repeating "why" every time someone answers a question.

People generally value being able to do more stuff. Putting control into the hands of large central parties generally does not go well.

It seems like all of these offers were about as likely to go through as the binance one. It isn't really surprising that there would be a lot of parties interested in taking a look at doing an offer. None of them were going to invest after even a cursory look at the finances.
This is not really true. Chrome's extensions to the Web platform comprising its Page Lifecycle APIs are coherent, well-reasoned, and valuable/inoffensive, yet other browsers have not implemented them (yet; but the proposed APIs are old enough now that if what you're saying were true it'd already be a done deal).
Not everyone wants to be entertained 100% of the time. It feels weird to assume everyone should be a talkative person all the time. At the end of the day barbers are still doing a technical job, some of them probably would prefer to focus on the work as well.

Or the more hilarious one where the group of developers each take turns to try, and fail, to fix the setup only to proclaim "Can't you just use your phone" before passing the baton to the next hopeful subject.
It's like two days since it was widely reported that Tesla's net approval ratings in consumer polls are now negative (drop from 6% at the start of the year to -1% now).

So clearly the attitudes in real life with real people have changed recently. The number of cars you see on the roads is, incidentally, a trailing indicator. If literally all sales of Teslas stopped now you'd still see them in the wild with the same frequency for years.
Even more hypocritically than that, he said he supported the ElonJet account remaining online.
"All bad drivers are bad in different ways, but all good drivers are good in the same way".

I accept that as a plausible hypothesis to work off of and see how far it goes, but I would not bank on it as truth.

I'll give another example, I think a significant portion of the time, people roll through stop signs (we'll say, 25% of the time? intuitive guess). I do it myself quite often. This is because not all intersections are built the same - some intersections have no obstacles anywhere near them and you can tell that duh, there's no cars coming up at the same time as me. Other intersections are quite occluded by trees and what not.

I'm fine with humans using judgement on these, but I would not trust whatever the statistical machine ends up generalizing to. I do not think rolling a stop sign makes you a 'bad' driver (depending on the intersection). Still, if I knew I was teaching a machine how to drive, I would not want it to be rolling stop signs.
The Death of SRAM?
Which specific ones have you personally verified as preventing use? That's a public tracker where anyone on the internet can report something — in many cases issues are duplicates, unreproducible, or specific to certain edge cases.

I ask because that returns 351 issues but if you do the same search for Chrome you'll find 414. I would assume that you would agree that the correct interpretation of that is not that Chrome doesn't support WebRTC?

Since all of the major services work without issue in all mainstream browsers, I would argue that to a first approximation this is not an effective proxy metric.
Yeah, but professional artists rely on people finding value on their artistic production. If AI can produce such a high quality output, then this is going to devalue their skills. Sure, they can still do it for the pleasure of producing art, but that's more like a hobby than a job.
Yeah, they get a lot of flak for that from HN. Doesn't bother me personally, but I can see why it would be a dealbreaker for some people. On the other hand, I sympathize with their decision to just not have to worry about storing passwords, account recovery, and all the associated headaches, because I hate those headaches too.

My guess is they will eventually add a sign-up-with-email option, but it's pretty far from the top of their priority list.
Much of the heavy industry in the future is likely to be in deserts near the equator.
We hired one of the Headscale developers and let him work on it (as part of his job, not just moonlighting) and we help out when there are issues and give them a heads-up when protocol changes/etc are coming.
Fair point, that was a bad example on my end. Edited.

But my point stands, that panel gap as a benchmark alone is no measure of quality or any other metric.
The language itself isn't great, but the tooling it (appears to) necessitate and the fact that the browser isn't a great environment for what many people want to do combine to turn many people off.

I'm a computer programmer heading into my 40s. One of my kids is a pre-teen now who is on various computers and devices a lot every day.

I knew way more about computers back when I was that age than my kids do! And believe me, I've tried to offer to teach them more about programming and how things work under the hood, but they're just not interested.

I think the common assumptions around "young = tech-savvy" "old = luddite" has gone completely out the window in recent years, perhaps in the last decade. In fact, I now generally trust the opinions of technologists who are in their 30s+ way more than 20s and below. I think there's been a tragic lack of proper education around open source, open protocols, networking, ethics in computerized communications, and other vital issues in tech.

Perhaps it's somewhat analogous to how many people a few decades ago were pretty knowledgable about how automobiles work, the parts of an engine, etc., and some folks were amateur mechanics who liked tinkering with their cars. These days, I think it's safe to assume the vast majority of drivers know next to nothing about cars technically-speaking and aren't even interested in knowing.

The difference now though is that you don't need to know anything about cars to work most jobs, and arguably we need a less car-dependent society which prioritizes mass transit. On the other hand, a fair degree of computer & internet knowledge is useful for many jobs in the modern economy and even in terms of policy-making in general. Younger generations not having a handle on it is a real concern.
100% democratic? Satoshi didn't ask me when he chose the halving algorithm. Do you mean democratic in the sense that the miners get votes according to their hash rate and they could tell the core devs to get bent if enough of them got together?

Ethiopia is currently involved in a civil war between two ethnic groups, with all of the base brutality that entails.

You're not addressing the point, which is what right do American Executives from California have to decide on the rights of Ethiopians to speak.

Additionally, even if such postings were illegal, this assumes that the government was not currently on one side of a civil war.

You're expecting a level of nuance and decision making about events that are so far out of a social media company's understanding and frankly, ability that I'm pretty sure you're just excited someone is suing Facebook. From FBs perspective, there aren't a lot of principled stances and even if they do take one, there will still be a million hackernews comments about how FB is responsible for bad thing.

All people should have equal opportunity, free from prejudice, sexism, etc. But all people are not born equal.

Equality in rights, does not mean people are identical.

Where I live, taxes become crazy high if single, and with imcome over 100k. So I just work less.

And I get paid well, for I am exceptionally good at what I do. This means that by taking more of my money, simply because I choose to excel, the government has taken part of my labour, right off the market.
