Almost all of these "recalls" that make the news are just software patches. The only difference between these and a normal patch is that customers get an email about it.

I can understand why people might think that all these recalls require going back to the shop, that's how most legacy makers work to this day.
Who knows. He's most likely salty that I poured cold reality on his fetishization of Europe. This happened to me a lot when I came back to America as there's a certain group of people who really do think Europe is better than America when the reality on the ground is far from it.
It seems there’s a huge disconnect between people who know how to drive and are confident in their skills, and those who are scared to drive and want to offload it to Musk.

I’m actually afraid to drive behind a Tesla and either keep extra distance or change lanes if possible. I still have more faith in humans to not randomly brake them in beta FSD.

It’s one thing to put your own life in the hands of this beta model, and it’s another to endanger the life and property of others.
Guns are not complex devices. Making them illegal does not make them go away. People are not hard to kill and if you want to do a lot of damage it’s hard to beat a can of gasoline or a U-haul. Find something else to cry about.
Would be a shame if it leaked though, wouldn't it? I could imagine healthcare companies would be very interested in the metadata surrounding prolific consumers of junk food, smokes, booze, etc. Wouldn't be too hard to use parallel construction to modify rates given the current "market".
Yeah, let's now hear the stats on "fatal accidents within 30s of FSD being enabled".

You really just can't trust Tesla at all, about anything. There's no integrity there. They won't even be honest with the name of their headline feature!
My wife and I bought a unit in a Condotel in Florida where we stay half the year and we nomad the other half.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34821620

When we leave in the spring, we pay a $110 cleaning fee and the property management company takes care of everything - cleaning, finding guests, cleaning, replenishment, maintenance, and they have a warehouse full of furniture when they need to replace everything.

True they take 48% of the proceeds + 4% escrow to handle major repairs. But I don’t have to deal with anything.

It’s in Florida so of course it’s cyclical. But since we stay there during low season, it covers its own expenses the other half.

This is investment advice. This is not an investment idea. This was a lifestyle choice to give us a place to stay during the winter.

But I would rather get two anal probes than be a traditional landlord again.

Edit: I just noticed you said it was difficult in a resort area.

Our Condotel is very much in a resort area. Three pools onsite, three restaurants, a lake for fishing, a water park, arcade, etc.

Not bragging, we downsized from our the house in the burbs in GA we had built in 2016 (3200 square feet) to a condo 2000 square feet smaller, paid the same price and we saved over $12000 a year in income taxes.
That's what I was about to ask. It says that the cable should update itself transparently, but there can always be a chance of corruption. Maybe the cable keeps the old FW and only boots the new one if it is signed.
Where in the comment above do they even mention Apple?
> I think since S2 is modeling the entire sphere's surface, it is fully dense. A sparse version might be "only include the cells that contain land," if that were all that was needed for the application.

I mean, S2 can express any point on the surface, but you don't have to populate any such data structure for all the points, and normally wouldn't. Generally S2 containers are sparse, and not using any custom geo-container code.

Background: S2 cell ID are compact 64 bits, but still contain the size of the cell (roughly, "more trailing zeroes mean we're talking about larger and larger cells"). That is, you can cover "continental US" with just a few cell IDs.

(I'm not a Googler but) The way S2 is normally used, cell IDs are just keys in an ordered key-value store, and if you want to ask for example "what country contains point P", you store cellId->country mapping with as large cells as possible. Then you'd look up the key closest to P in the store. Cell ID 101101... is contained inside cell ID 10110... is contained inside 1011... etc, so all you need to do is find the node with the max cell ID <= the point you are looking for.

B+tree etc are all great for it. For an in-memory array, a binary search would work. No need for fancy custom data structures, just general key-value storage where you can find the key near input P (that is, ordered, not hashmap).
Hmm, sorry about that broken flow. We added some last-minute things today to get the skip-signup thing working that might have some bugs :)

If you go straight to https://neptyne.com/neptyne/tutorial that should work.

We do support live collaborative editing, though it isn't all built out yet. If two people are working on the same tyne, you'll see the presence of other collaborators and you'll see their changes reflected live, but the code panel updates with last-writer-wins at the moment. We're working on making that better.
It's irrelevant anyway. None of those cars will be retrofit with Hardware 4:

I spent a lot of time playing in bands and doing the home recording thing 10-15 years ago. Had a bunch of rack mount gear and dreamt of building out a mobile recording rig using a DJ case[1] like my dad had (for DJing weddings).

Eventually found someone selling an old 4U (which is about as tall as a standard desktop is wide) ATX server case, locking front panel and all, on craigslist for cheap.

It was super heavy (as was all of the other audio equipment), but having all of my stuff in one case (and only needing to set up a display, keyboard, and mouse) was pretty great. Never had much issue with heat/noise, but wasn't overly concerned at the time either.

Exactly. But I guess people don’t care about accuracy anymore.
For someone that reads as many logs as you/I do - I strongly suggest looking into high refresh rates!

They seem very gaming oriented, because well, they are - but being able to read things as they fly by is a huge help. I'm always the person in calls at work going: "you missed it!"
Agreed, I did the same. I decided a couple years into his presidency that I'm fundamentally morally incompatible with people who could support such an abhorrent asshole. Not to mention their incredible propensity for confirmation bias, which is frankly reason enough on its own to remove them from my life. I lost a few acquaintances and one friend during the latter Trump years. I value my friends highly, but I regret nothing, and would happily do it again.
It's been so many years since 16:10 monitors were abandoned by manufacturers and I'm still sad about it.

Though ultrawide does lift my spirits a bit. Doesn't improve the feel of the desktop for productivity, but gaming is excellent (first person games become more immersive and in WoW my screen is so much less cluttered with less important elements pushed way out to the side).
You can enable :has in Firefox, but it's buggy and still very experimental at this point. Or at least it was a month or so ago.
Yeah; buying new is extremely expensive. Many cities have an e-waste recycler from whom you can get great deals (otherwise browse Craigslist and Marketplace, there are good deals (sometimes free) on older equipment.

For UPSes, a reputable brand (like APC) will still function fine but might need new batteries, which are a lot cheaper than a whole UPS.
Ask HN: How to Exit FAANG?
I work at a company that rhymes with "frugal". I've done really well here and gotten promoted to senior SWE. My work has tons of impact. My team is a pretty healthy environment compared to the rest of the company, all things considered.

But now I'm struggling to find motivation to do my work. I have absolutely no interest in leading a team, but senior members in my org keep trying to groom me into a TL. I like being an IC and building what I'm told to build; I have no idea how to decide what it is we should be building and don't want to deal with customer demands.

What I feel like I'd really rather do is quit and join a team working on something low stakes. Somewhere where I can put the minimum effort and still impress. I think this would be better for my mental health.

But it's a hard pill to give up the FAANG compensation. Also being stuck in a NIH company has atrophied my "real world" tech stack knowledge, so it's harder to market myself (especially now that the job market is saturated with laid off SWEs).

Any advice for jumping ship from FAANG?
Serious question: if they haven't left yet, will they leave over this?

I'm sure it will push a few people over the line, but in the end Musk's outlandish behavior is a sideshow. Celebrities and influencers still tweet; people still seem to want to read that.

I don't know why people ever joined, so I have no idea what will make Twitter users leave.
What most annoying is yt now showing vids that are already watched just a day afoy. Including shorts. They can't even do a proper sorting now
But given the choice, isn't SMS a stronger first authentication factor? It's temporary and randomized, whereas users don't change passwords that frequently. So a password is much more susceptible to keyloggers/malware/brute-force than an SMS code.
How has that recourse worked on the local and state levels so far?
Tech Progress Is Slowing Down
Sometimes spades need to be labeled as such.
7-Eleven has this feature. I remember poking around their American iPhone app and they had libraries for this functionality.
How could it be unsafe? Well, if you ask it how to deal with a grease fire and it recommends pouring water on it, that seems like it would be unsafe. Or perhaps you hooked a Python script up to the output of ChatGPT and let it call API functions that control a robot arm; that could also be unsafe. It doesn't seem like a crazy thing to worry about.

I'm not sure what you mean by "by itself" – at the very least, the comments section here is always filled with humans who say they find ChatGPT useful. I haven't personally found it very useful yet, but Copilot certainly is, and it's very similar to ChatGPT in terms of architecture.
I am curious - Why shouldn't a CEO impact a feature like this?
Very Excited.

I'm likely very close to the ideal user. I don't program for work but make CSV-consuming tools from Python here and there to work on giant exports of data when they get outside of Excel's built-in magic.

Most recently the exact task was to consume a Zoom user export, filter with RegEx, and transform the table for upload to Zoom as a CSV again, but with different fields. This would translate very well to Neptyne if it supported 70k rows.
Looks like we might be getting a return to the Lochner era, where the "right to form contracts" was used to strike down state laws forbidding child labour, setting working hours maximums, creating minimum wages etc.
> Even the authors of the Rand report say lawmakers should still be putting policies aimed at preventing gun violence into practice now — regardless of what the science does or doesn’t say.
18w idle is rather normal for what the ryzenmaster monitoring software will report (which I believe is PPT) . On Intel for PPT you will usually measure 0-5W -- AMD idle power consumption is really bad on desktops.
For Tesla's collection of data on accidents with Autopilot technologies, they considers Autopilot to have been enabled during the crash if it was on several seconds beforehand. These systems may hand control back to the driver in crash scenarios moments before impact, but that doesn't mean the data will report that the system was not enabled for the incident.
Probably, but "two Python books" mentioned in this thread are even more suited to a general beginner.
>We have global capitalist power but not global worker power.

Which is a tremendous advantage to the American worker, who would balk at global average compensation and quality of life.
Property theft can be broadly separated into two categories: opportunistic and professional.

You leave your wallet on a restaurant table by accident it may well get stolen opportunistically. The thief may have limited or no history of theft. An opportunity merely presented itself. It could also be teenagers stealing a car for a joyride.

The second, bigger category is professional theft. Note that "professional" here is statement about skill or even organization. It's just done as a source of income. So when you see anything stolen at scale the first thing to consider is how easily is this converted into money because that's where the majority of it goes.

So for stolen bikes it surprises me not at all that they stay local. I imagine an awful lot of bikes are sold privately through predictable channels (eg Craigslist, FB Marketplace, flea markets). It may not even be pawn shops because those generally have ID requirements.

Higher end bikes may end up being shipped (eg [1]) because the more expensive and rarer (and thus more identifiable) a bike, the more risk in selling it locally and the harder it is to maybe find a buyer.

I'm actually surprised so many people report stolen bikes. Like what does this do, really? Is there really going to be an insurance claim? If it's thousands of dollars I would totally understand but most bikes are cheap. Interestingly I once had a garage door left open. An expensive mountain bike was stolen and they didn't bother taking my cheap piece of crap bike.

"Bounced back": the only actual relevant time frame I can find in the article is a one million year gap, so an order of magnitude longer the recorded human history.

A recovery of the carbon cycle I think I read somewhere in the past alone is 10 or 20 thousand years.
I can twist your entire argument around, but honestly, why even bother? You use Java and Kotlin as (good) examples, leaving the fact that these are heavily IDE-centric PLs. And if you haven't noticed, Kotlin actually is a marketing tool, created by an IDE tool-maker, to sell more IDE features. Try writing Java in Vim or Emacs - expect a world of pain. Whereas Clojure with its minimal syntax doesn't have that problem. In my team, we have engineers writing Clojure and Clojurescript in Emacs, Vim, VSCode and IntelliJ, and we don't do that for some hobby projects. I also, personally know people who use Sublime and Atom.
RFID probably doesn't bring much, engraving is easier and is hard to remove without marks. About that, France has an official method of tagging bikes which has been mandatory on new bikes since jan 2021. See [0] for doc in English and [1] for a video.

is this the largest car recall in history? holy crap

edit: looks like no.. the largest was 578607 cars... also by Tesla lol
You've just described what has been happening to me since becoming a parent. Suddenly consumer electronics matter to me because I'm stuck in the house a lot more. I regret my purchases. But if you can only watch movies in the house then a good TV and sound bar are nice.
It's not that people misunderstand the probabilistic nature of the models. It's that people are rightfully concerned about the impact of the composition of said probabilistic loop with another one when the mechanism of said composition isn't entirely understood. You're trying to argue seesaw mechanics while everyone else is worrying about the outcome of the abstract algebra of the damn thing.

You just don't realize the conversation is happening on a higher level than you're currently thinking. It's alright. Happens to everyone.
Because people would brigade videos they politically disagreed with even if it was good content. I’m seeing those videos now. Taking away dislikes has a chilling effect on brigading.
One way to see the level of indoor location precision available to them is to open the mobile app in-store map of a retailer which often shows a little real-time dot to represent your location.

(Readers should note, of course, that this is willingly giving them loads of data from that device)

Target's in particular is crazy precise in-app.
Teslas don't have cruise control?! The arrogance...
Well, at least something is in order :)
How were you able to put it into autopilot? Typically, the autopilot is calibrating itself the first 60 or so miles of driving, and it does not let you engage it.
Everything about it seems exaggerated - the initial reaction to ChatGPT, people wondering if it will take their job, people thinking that it can replace search, Microsoft rushing to integrate it, Google reacting to this etc.

I kind of wish Google had the balls to play it cool and not even flinch - do nothing and let Microsoft embarrass themselves by rushing an incomplete product to market.
Not true. Her sister met Sergey because they were in her garage. She got the job fair and square.
Haha that sounds like it could be its own gaming competition—competitive log streaming.

I have done that though, where you just let loose the firehose, and scan for patterns during some nasty event.
> The FSD Beta system may cause crashes by allowing the affected vehicles to: “act unsafe around intersections, such as traveling straight through an intersection while in a turn-only lane, entering a stop sign-controlled intersection without coming to a complete stop, or proceeding into an intersection during a steady yellow traffic signal without due caution,” according to the notice on the website of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Does anyone have insights on what QA looks like at Tesla for FSD work? Because all of these seem table-stakes before even thinking about releasing the BETA FSD.
Interesting, I didn't know this. Somewhere I can find more info?
>You just classified 46% of voting Americans as bad people

They're not all bad people, most are just stupid.
So are they recalling, or releasing a software fix?
I have it (subscription, just wanted to try it out). I won't use it again. It confidently attempted to drive me into a rather solid object with very little warning. If every other car on the road had this, I would sell all my cars and forbid family members from getting anywhere near the road.

It's nice on the freeway though.
Nailed it. Everyone saying hotels are a better option are one or more of:

a. Childless

b. Vacationing in a popular/populous area where there is hotel choice

c. Not in the USA (I've gleaned from these threads that hotels with spacious suites are more common in Europe)
I'd overlook the reductive offensiveness of your comment if it wasn't an actual issue in my program. It was.
I'm not sure how to reconcile that statement with how FSD beta works. Fine, the speed limit thing is easy to fix-- just cap the max speed to the speed limit.

But the "[traveling] through intersections in an unlawful or unpredictable manner" is inherent to the FSD beta. Most of the time it does "fine", but there's some intersections where it will inexplicably swerve into different lanes and then correct itself. And this can change beta-to-beta (one in particular used to be bad, it got fixed at some point, then went back to the old swerving behavior).
Let's hope the poster isn't lying or wrong
It's not just made up, it tracks downvotes from extension users and combines them with a historical database. And I think some creators share new info with the database to help the accuracy.
I think this depends on the service being purchased and the location. Cars have an upkeep cost, insurance, etc. If you're using a car only sparingly it may in fact be cheaper to use a service.

At my local store, the checkout clerks keep pushing me to get a loyalty card. I tried to engage once and start a conversation about privacy, but ended up walking away from the conversation feeling a little like a conspiracy theorist. But thanks to working in tech, I know this data is being tracked, bought, and sold behind the cute "loyalty" branding. I wish I knew of a good way to convince ordinary people to value their privacy, or at least not mock others who care about privacy.
> I saw that rack mount makes things cost significantly more

Double-edged sword. Higher prices brand new, but vastly cheaper used if you chase companies' deprecation cycles.

Speaking of Imprezas, I bought an STI in 2006 that had very high intensity headlights. Not LED, but as intense as what you see in modern cars today.

That model year of the STI (and maybe others) had a little dial on the dash that would allow you to change the angle of the headlights up or down. The user manual doesn't describe the purpose of this feature, but my best guess is that it's for when you're driving on a lot of hills. Aiming down gives you better visibility and prevents blinding people.

Every other car I've owned hasn't had this feature. It's puzzling they don't, but also almost as puzzling that the STI does.

I often think about how it might be a fun project to introduce a micro controller and an IMU or similar so the headlights can automatically adjust themselves based on the angle of the car, but then I worry I'll be over working the existing components.

The interesting part of the research is that the authors identified a common player that might progress the development of chronic diseases: high uric acid levels.

Uric acid has historically been associated with gout. But more recently, there has been growing interest in the role of uric acid on the development of chronic diseases like metabolic disease, cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer.

A 6700xt should idle at 6-7w with only one monitor. If it idles at 28w it means there is something it doesn't like about your monitors that forces it to keep the memory clocks at max. Try setting them at the same resolution, refresh rate, and depth/bpc).
I thought about that idea a few times, maybe I'll look for it! Because my fear has something to do with the unusual sensations on my body that I'm not used to (full speed, shaking, noise, and taking off) that triggers the adrenaline, I guess. And probably a few accidents in the past that watching images and seeing photos were a bit traumatic as a kid. I know people that avoid flying at all costs. At least I go but with the feeling that I'm really going to die lol. It's crazy.
