You don't remember the decades when SoMa and the mission were gang hotspots, with frequent shootings? During that same time, it was dangerous to wear a hoodie, or a bandana. Crime in SF is still at historic lows, especially violent crime. There's a higher perception of crime in the city right now due to a persistent media emphasis on crime _percentage_ increases. The police haven't been defunded, the DA's office is still prosecuting roughly the same number of criminals.

The biggest different in SF is the homeless population, and specifically the amount of drug addicts. Drug addicts are also the ones breaking into cars, shop lifting and stealing bikes. This is primarily thanks to the opiod epidemic, and not due to local politics. Republican cities are _not_ handling this better than liberal ones.

The tenderloin has always been awful. It's named the way it is because of high crime and dirty cops. You describing it this way makes me doubt you live in the city at all.

It's been a year since Boudin was recalled, and yet you're saying it's the worst it's ever been. Maybe he wasn't the issue?

haha the other thread said the real culprit is the vegetable oil, not sugar. Twenty years ago it probably would have been fat. Too many things to ban!
Consider the union negotiating tactics. They don't negotiate, they demand. They carry signs and verbally attack the company. They threaten. They offer nothing in return. It's entirely framed as win-lose by the union. How do they expect the company to want to deal with them?

Consider how businesses negotiate. Each side offers something in return for better terms. They come to a mutually agreeable win-win solution.

That's what I do when I've negotiated with employers. I frame it as a friendly win-win negotiation, and both parties go away pleased with the result.
It doesn't need to be like this. There can be collaboration to find the best solution for all parties. They can become a communication channel for problems including security issues.

And here is Amazon the one that is treating their employees both bad and as adversaries

There are still plenty of other possibile curiosities than interstellar rocks in closer proximity than Proxima Centauri. Each would require highly specialized instruments.

Not sure what the window of opportunity was for O6a, but it's doubtful that it would have been possible to prepare a mission in that timeframe. It follows that such "spaceships" would need to be prepared ahead of time and maintained indefinitely for an event which may not occur again for centuries ...
I was recently rewatching some old Taleb talks about fragility. Our software systems are extremely fragile. I wonder if there is any way we can make them anti-fragile? What would this look like?
Aiding a war ‘against it’?? These people are just dumb about this conflict. How about we all leave the borders as they are and do something more valuable for mankind. The only people who want war are the ones blinded by power
Safari does it too (on a big screen).
Easy solution: just use the truck lane.
> You don't get $20M budget at the cost of hundreds of other independent films? Yeah, sorry, boo-hoo.

This is the part of the article I don't grasp. The article kept saying things like:

> however, subscription services cannot only cater to niches, they must try to be everything to all people, which places more value on the content platform and its library than the quality of each individual piece of content.

That seems like a more accurate description of the old model. A box office blockbuster film must be everything to everyone. A NYT bestseller must be be everything to everyone.

The subscription model in both visual media and books has unlocked unexplored niches. There is tones of anime all over Netflix. I have read a bunch of "progression fantasy" on Kindle Unlimited, exemplified by the Cradle Series by Will Wight. This sort of media would never have survived under the old model, as it is too niche. Will Wight doesn't care about making NYT bestseller, he is focused on cultivating his 1000(0) followers.
That seems like an overly narrow definition of what a browser "should" be. I think there's enough choice that niche projects like this can exist.
Unfortunately, 'gender identity' becoming more accepted as a concept undermines all the work lesbian women and gay men did to improve societal acceptance of homosexuality.

For example, if women are no longer considered to be exclusively female, but also include males who 'identify as women' and have a 'female gender identity', this redefines lesbians to include males too, so it's no longer same-sex attraction, and is thus a rejection of homosexuality.

Same argument applies for gay men being told that their sexuality should include the subset of females who say they are men.

Also it's getting even more anti-gay with the recent introduction of the 'non-binary gender identity' idea. Previously the redefinition was implicit, because 'woman' and 'man' had been redefined to be about 'gender identity' rather than sex. Now it's explicit, with lesbians being increasingly referred to as 'non-men who love non-men', erasing women entirely.

Worse still, lesbians and gay men who stand up against this sort of homophobia and assert their sexuality get shouted down as being 'transphobic', as a silencing tactic, and some are even being prosecuted for this, e.g. https://www.womensdeclaration.com/en/resources/statements-an...

We're going full circle to homophobia becoming socially acceptable again, but this time it's considered progressive.
Given the context, one would hope that would be a catastrophic mechanical failure, ideally involving explosions.
Given the vintage pedigree BSD like SunOS is an even better candidate.

Once tuned for processing they just ran - rip out a network cable and stuff it back in again, not a hiccup.

TDD helps a lot against fragility imo. The main issue is explaining why your project takes so much longer as your tests force you to work out every edge case.
There are 6 other cars that crashed, each into the one infront of it, it looks like nobody was paying attention.

If the Tesla was at the back or the middle I think it's highly likely it would have outperformed the other drivers and stopped faster or kept a safe distance.

A series of problems lead to this accident, FSD Beta gets 5% of the blame here for stopping on the highway, which isn't an exclusive feature to Tesla - cars stop on roads all the time.

What this demonstrates is 7/8 or 8/8 drivers here were driving unsafely.
Yeah, it's possible they didn't fully slam on the brakes immediately. But you don't expect the car in front of you to do so for no reason either, so I still wouldn't consider the second car at fault.
But Koningsberg is czech!
This is great. Don't suppose you've seen anything similar for the flow when you include SR-IOV/DPKD a google didn't help.
Our hypothesis: By making smarter kitchen equipment we can collect more data. By applying data to our restaurant, we can build more intelligent systems. By building more intelligent systems, we can better scale our business.

As a simple example, imagine a forecasting model that attempts to predict how many Waffle Fries (or replace with your favorite Chick-fil-A product) should be cooked over every minute of the day. The forecast is created by an analytics process running in the cloud that uses transaction-level sales data from many restaurants. This forecast can most certainly be produced with a little work. Unfortunately, it is not accurate enough to actually drive food production. Sales in Chick-fil-A restaurants are prone to many traffic spikes and are significantly affected by local events (traffic, sports, weather, etc.).

However, if we were to collect data from our point-of-sale system’s keystrokes in real-time to understand current demand, add data from the fryers about work in progress inventory, and then micro-adjust the initial forecast in-restaurant, we would be able to get a much more accurate picture of what we should cook at any given moment. This data can then be used to give a much more intelligent display to a restaurant team member that is responsible for cooking fries (for example), or perhaps to drive cooking automation in the future.

Goals like this led us to develop an Internet of Things (IOT) platform for our restaurants. To successfully scale our business we need the ability to 1) collect data and 2) use it to drive automation in the restaurant.

The football game next door is over and the home team won? Start extra burgers in anticipation of hungry fans - great. I buy that.

The whole thing can be one app running on an iPad with multiple redundant data plans enabled, esims from AT&T and Verizon or whatever. You're going to need a touchscreen tablet for the POS anyway, no need for additional hardware or Kubernetes.
From what I can tell, the car behind the tesla didn't crash into the tesla but stopped before. And so did the car behind that one. It is the cars after that that crashed into each others.

While automatic cars doing random things is certainly problematic, clearly the cause of the crash here isn't the tesla, it is other cars not respecting minimum safety distances and not able to stop when there is a traffic jam ahead.
And presumably, how many talented people don't make it because they lacked their first hit, being squeezed out on the long tail, often sacrificing their wealth and health in the process.
I can't say I've ever seen a disadvantage in leaving "too big" a gap between me and the car in front.

If someone wants to pass me and then sit up the other guy's arse, fine. I guarantee I'll be ten seconds behind them at the next road junction, or not much more. I don't think people realise that the relationship between road speed and journey time isn't linear - doing 90mph won't get you there appreciably faster than doing 60mph unless you're on a very long perfectly straight road with no junctions to turn off at.
Aren't unions opt-in?
Even the word "name" seems to be a Wanderwort. If true, it would actually not be a fun coincidence that the Japanese word for the name is "namae" (名前).

I don't know how much I trust his etymologies for "name" but most of his etymologies for "seven" seem plausible.
I don’t bike to work for the reason you mentioned, even in the bike lane. The health benefits aren’t worth the amortized risk. Cars treat bike lanes as passing lanes way too often. If it’s not physically separated it’s not for me.
I don't know any specifics about that case. But in Seattle, the Starbucks employees went on strike to form a union, and they went into the street with signs saying how bad Starbucks was, and how they could afford to pay them more, lots of shouting and hate.

Who wants to partner with people who do that?
It might force them build better APIs :)
This is equivalent to asking "Why the heck are you writing code with bugs?"

Sure, if we could write code without bugs, we wouldn't need to suppress panics.
But since we do tend to write code bugs and some of them are bugs that can be detected by the runtime - we get panics.

If you hate panics, you can do better than Go and go for a language with a stronger type system, where you won't get nil pointer panics or interface conversion panics, but even an almost onerously-tyepesafe language like Haskell still panics on some bogus operations such as division by zero or trying to read the head of an empty list. Perhaps Idris really have no runtime errors but they are quite niche.
You're mixing things up. I totally agree that Siri and Alexa are quite unusable right now. You can basically just ask for the time and the weather, everything else fails. However, with ChatGPT as a potential backend, I think the situation would change.
What's the point of the vote, then?
> At the risk of sounding like a hypocrite, I do not want to enable other people to “steal” from these companies.

I can almost guarantee if you know about this others do too and will potentially sell or exploit it. I'd try reporting it again. Publishing it might ultimately get them to fix it, but is kind of the nuclear option.

At one point I had the idea to tag each section or paragraph with a topic ID and list the topic IDs directly referenced. Then you could build a graph with the referenced topics as edges. After refactoring it into a DAG, you could do a topological sort to get a linear sequence of topics And chop it into chapters.

I took that as an indication I was procrastinating, but I think it would be a fun way to structure a book!
Java made the mistake of being VM based, no value types, and AOT only available via expensive 3rd party plugins.

Had Java been like Modula-3 or Eiffel since version 1.0, Go might never have happened at all.

Thankfully they are on the right path to fix those issues.
Well, they don't write Hawaiian, so there's no correct representation.

More clear example would be to write some name a non-latin script at all. You'd have to nitpick that Athena is not correct, and they should've written Αθηνά.
Uh, have you just not noticed employer tactics? They don't care about it being win-win.

You clearly have extreme anti-union bias to the point you havent noticed how incredibly employee hostile the companies that unions form around are, to an absurd extent. It's gone so far that the magnitude of a win for the employer is so much higher than for the employee that the goal posts have shifted to absurdity.

You're still putting the onus for improving the situation on the party with far, far less power. Which makes no sense.
This is a very cool conversation, for some reason, I always found debugging tools to be fascinating bits of tech.

I do have to admit though, that my first read of your post was wrong tough, I read it as "debuggers used in embedded" like JTAG stuff, OpenOCD, etc. but you mean it as, if I read this right "debuggers embedded in the runtime/program" stuff like Python, or GDB server running on system right?
That's a common talking point, and I have no doubt it matches what you've seen, but as a counterpoint to "always" - I've only seen unions deal with management twice, and both times it was productive and mutually respectful.

Negotiations like "The industry has moved and we are going to be out of business if we don't cut costs" lead to unions asking for concessions like voluntary redundancies (before involuntary ones to make up the difference) and on-site cross-training.

In return, the employers got buy-in from staff, which meant smoother knowledge transfer from departing employees.

Always the "sphere of influence" crap rhetoric.

We all know Russia WANTS a sphere of influence. But why should Russia have a sphere of influence? What is so special about Russia that you believe it deserves such a thing? Russia isn't even able to protect those currently in its sphere of influence (CSTO), as we can see in Armenia.

Nukes? The DPRK has nukes. Should the DPRK have a sphere of influence? Should India and Pakistan have their spheres of influence? Should everyone get nukes just to guarantee their own sovereignty?

Economy? Pre-war Russia was economically the size of Italy.

The ex-Warsaw Pact countries joined NATO of their own initiative precisely to be as far away from Russia as possible. Because being in the Russian sphere of influence means having your people sent to the gulag in Siberia.

If the war achieved anything for Russia, it's putting Russia firmly inside Chinas sphere of influence.

If they cut the ticket price dramatically, people would go to back to the theatre.

Currently the Android team doesn't have any plans to expose Rust support on the NDK/AGK, anyone going down that path is expected to support themselves in Android Studio, Gradle, CMake, android-ndk, AAR/Bundles, JNI integration.
> In fact, the purpose of JuNest is not to build a complete isolated environment but, conversely, is the ability to run programs as they were running natively from the host OS. Almost everything is shared between host OS and the JuNest sandbox (kernel, process subtree, network, mounting, etc) and only the root filesystem gets isolated (since the programs installed in JuNest need to reside elsewhere).

> This allows interaction between processes belonging to both host OS and JuNest. For instance, you can install top command in JuNest in order to monitor any processes belonging to the host OS.

So this is more similar to something like pip/npm/composer than to docker?

What centralized kingdoms were there in Europe 4000 years ago?
When I was about to graduate from college, this seemed to be the typical case with so-called "management consulting" firms around Washington, DC.

The one that haunted our campus most thoroughly was the gloriously named Corporate Executive Board, which was none of those words, just a regular consulting firm with a stupidly big name. I think they have since changed their name to "it's just an acronym, it doesn't mean anything," and then to something else entirely.

Anyway, they would hire droves of new grads, mostly from the tech and science-adjacent majors who didn't find anything better to do. Then they would churn through them. I remember classmates telling stories of being locked in at work during project crunch time, getting yelled at by managers who demanded total commitment.

The typical trajectory would be that you would leave after two years, get an MBA, and return to the "industry" in a less menial and humiliating role. That or, I guess, you'd just get another job altogether. A lot of my classmates came back for graduate degrees after trying to make it work with a bachelor's.

I've been told that places like Deloitte and Accenture have gradually reformed their "early career" positions in recent years, but I no longer know anyone who works at places like that.
> Really looking forward to OOP being phased out.

All the higher level macOS APIs are still object oriented, and I don't see that changing TBH. And macOS application source code is essentially just minimal glue code to tie those system APIs together, in the end, the programming language used for this glue code doesn't matter all that much, since the code is completely dominated by API calls.
That’s not how a screen reader works. It interfaces with a “normal” browser’s exposed accessibility tree, and generates speech / Braille from that.
Here's an example. Union says "we have ideas that will cut costs 10%. In exchange, we want half of that in the form of higher wages." Business says, "where do I sign?"
No it isn't. The cost isn't high at all. Even the current spent fuel is tiny in volume and tiny in storage cost. They are literally a bunch of cask on a parking lot. All of Switzerlands fuel for 50+ years is literally in one storage building. The US has already collected a huge amount of money that could be invested in solution but they just leave it on a parking lot.

And if we are going to use nuclear for the long term, using that 'waste' as fuel is clearly the thing to do, and we can simply burn all that stuff up and the remaining fuel only needs to be stored for 300 years.

Thorium is not needed for this, just better reactors.
I was thinking the same. One earlier article about this had a rather inflammatory photo of some twisted-up cars next to an empty baby buggy. But if you watch the video, that’s clearly where some human drivers ploughed straight into the back of the pile-up.

The Tesla autopilot failure is really bad, for sure, but those human drivers should be banned for life. There’s no excuse for ramming into a traffic jam because you weren’t paying attention.

Edit: occurs to me that possibly I’m being overly harsh here. Is there something about the dynamics of traffic that puts the cars three or four slots back at greater risk when somebody unexpectedly stops? I would assume that the immediately following car is at the greatest risk, but after that everybody is at successively less risk as they should all be slowing and should all see each others’ brake lights.

It is definitely one per CS definition of automatic memory mangement algorithms.

Trailers normally have back-up brakes that engage as soon as there is pressure rather than tension on the tow bar. To allow reversing they also have a block that allows you to disable the backup brake (usually a lever that moves in to avoid the compression of the tow bar). I wonder if your friend had accidentally forgotten to re-enable the automatic brake after getting ready for the trip.

Unions in America are way different compared to Europe. It's worth reading about it.
When I see a union offering win-win solutions, I will change my mind.

I am not anti-union. I am anti the tactics they use.

Unions are part of the free market. A union is a business that sells labor.
US still have that, but it’s way easier to bootstrap a small union then expand, as intense lobbying resource (money) is required to have a successful union drive.
In this particular edge-case, it's the user fault for using a technology not supposed to be used when towing.

Ask HN: Have you switched from Terraform to Crossplane?
I've seen how nasty a Terraform codebase can get at scale if you don't write good data-driven code. Module sprawl, state sprawl, drift. Even though I have found a nice data-driven approach that gets around many of it's problems, the Terraform DSL still has a few surprising "oofs" that get in my way (I'm talking specifically about features that don't work with `for_each`, like passing provider configs to modules, or lack of resource level dependency detection which throws dependency cycle errors where there are no cycles). Worse, some of these core terraform issues don't seem to get much attention, and the project maintainers have occasionally hinted that they don't have many development resources. All that said, I like Terraform. I'm just being honest about the gnarly side of using it at scale.

I like the idea of Crossplane (a reconciliation loop that keeps state correct, handling dependencies through retries). It's not gitops, but could be if you add ArgoCD or FluxCD. But doesn't Terraform + Atlantis give you somewhat the same. Why switch?

I have no idea what problems I will encounter at the same scale that I've been using Terraform. The demos and examples I've seen are simple day one problems that only show is benefits.

So: Have you gone all-in on Crossplane, built lots of configurations and composite resources etc? If so, what are it's real world issues?
