How would you incentivize truck drivers without encouraging law-breaking? Per mile and per hour both encourage driving more. And per load does too, because you can get in more loads if you drive more hours (and faster!).

The only way you could avoid it is paying a flat salary. But the companies would never do that because then the drivers would go slowly and follow all the laws, cutting their profits. And besides, most truck drivers are owner/operators, so there is no one to pay them a salary.

Unless the government steps in. Have the government pay them for resting, so they make the same money either way. That's about the only way I can think of.
I think of ChatGPT as being a “close example” of the final code that I want to produce. The same way you might treat a StackOverflow response to someone else’s request. Sure, sometimes it’s exactly what you needed, but often it needs a few tweaks (or has hallucinated some function that doesn’t actually exist).

Yeah I don't understand why so many people seem to be against this just because it's unlikely it will be raised to a felony or connected to other crimes.

Isn't it fine if this just hits Trump with a small fine or 3 days in jail or something? A fair punishment for a misdemeanor would be fine with me for this case. That's like the whole point of justice, that even the former president should have to follow the fine details.

In my state, our Democrat governor was accused of being a tyrant because of some minor paperwork she didn't do during emergency covid meetings. She still paid the fine because she committed the "crime" (procedural violation?) and that's how it should be. Politicians should not be immune to the little stuff. If they are speeding, they should get a ticket. If they shoplift, they should face a fine. If they forget to report a W2 to the IRS, they should get a pleasant letter telling them their mistake and they owe a few hundred dollars.

I consider that a GOOD thing

GCP's biggest problem is trust. People (rightfully) don't trust that GCP won't do a rug pull with their production workloads. GCP has done that with both pricing and killing off services.

If you are an infrastructure provider, the first thing people are paying you for is to be a stable foundation. If there is no stable foundation there is no trust.

Its really hard to imagine GCP fixing this without new leadership. Hire someone from AWS who knows what they are doing. AWS doesn't do this shit. AWS goes so far out of its way to not break customer workloads.
I really like these ideas. The OS, the interface that I would like to work with, that I have worked with my entire career, the interface that I'm an expert in, begins to recover some territory from the abomination represented by Kubernetes and Docker.
Yes, its an app. There isn't a single generic ELD hardware device. Every trucking company decides what device is best for their needs. My company uses Samsung Galaxy tablets. These devices do much more than just track ELD.
That's hard to tell without comparisons to other countries. Also, my gut feeling is that most of that spending trickles down back to those households. A lot goes into social security, healthcare, and defense, which drive huge part of the US economy and maintain competitive advantages for it across the world.

My point still stands that the $37k per household are just an illustration, as the tax base are not just households, and that a lot of what US foreign policy achieves is to the benefit of a very few of those households.
"you can't exit the search early when a condition is met" - I have a DAG traversal written in a recursive CTE, and I can bail early out just fine when my traversal predicates no longer match. Not sure why I'd have to do that outside the (recursive part of the) CTE?

Obviously maintaining a flattened version is going to perform better in queries, but you're trading maintenance (write) time for query time. Or materialization time if you decide to do it lazily.

Obviously I don't want to shit on my home country or countrymen but honestly I was pretty shocked. I hadn't visited much since we moved here in 2018 because of covid so August 2022 was our first "proper" visit since 2018.

Sure I met lots of happy people too but what stood out to me was how many people were unhappy. Even the happy people I hung around with soon (within an hour or so) turned into grumps and then the flood gates opened once one person got bitching about "the state of the UK" they all started.

I lived in the UK since birth so 30+ years by the time I left. I don't ever remember people being so negative. Utility bills, shitty schools, awful local services, everything costing more and being shittier quality. It almost felt like everyone was in a sort of mild state of countrywide depression. Not quite sure how to put it but perhaps some kind of negative feedback loop of misery is just compounding in the general populations psyche? That might sound a bit over the top but I don't really know how else to describe it as an "inside outsider" that I am.

The move to [redacted] has obviously been great for us. We moved in 2018 as I've mentioned, long story show once the vote to leave the EU won we decided to leave while we could. It took us two years of planning to make it happen and in a huge strike of luck my wife was made redundant (due to Brexit!) just a few weeks before she was going to hand in her notice having been contacted about a job here in [redacted]. So we left with a nice big cash lump sum, plus a fantastic signing bonus for my wife and a very generous relocation lump sum. In just a few weeks we went from very little savings to over £200k cash that we used to pay of all debts (including mortgage) and left the UK with zero debt and a nice chunk of cash most of which is now invested with some accessible for emergencies.

Sadly a few "friends" from the UK who were quite pro Brexit saw us as "fools" for leaving and when we met up they didn't try to hide the fact they thought we were "traitors" (literally what they called us at one point) as we "profited from Brexit but don't agree with it and fucked off". They basically feel it is people like me and my family that are the 'reason' Brexit is a failure?! Their arguments make little to no sense obviously but it was quite sad to hear someone I used to enjoy hanging out with call me an asshole for "making loads of money while the country went to shit". Obviously nothing to do with Covid, Boris, a decade of Tory rule, all the vote Leave lies, etc. Trying to have a discussion with them was like trying to explain multithreading programming to a piece of wood but oh well I tried. I suspect his negative attitude towards me is more to due with his own issues and he found an easy target with me having moved to a country he hates. Certainly felt like he had a lot of build up anger and he let it all out when I popped round to say hi!

So yeah lots of great things but also some emotionally difficult things come with moving country although I feel mine are more specific to the whole Brexit situation that wouldn't be an issue usually.
I've had trouble finding the exact quote, but one of the Obama administration's justifications for not pursuing the abuses of the Bush administration was the precedent it would establish. As I recall, there was some worry that this would establish a norm where every outgoing administration could be targeted.
Because it is, if you read about it.

Their track record is excellent. Pavel moved away from Russia (and his team of 20 something members too!) only because the Russian government pressured them into giving access to their servers.

WhatsApp is anything but privacy preserving. You have 0 transparency. You can't even prove if the E2EE exists for 100% of the time or just 50% of the time because the binaries are obfuscated. On top of that, their privacy policy and being owned by Facebook says everything one needs to know.

Telegram, IMHO, is the only app that does not compromise on user experience and still provides fantastic privacy control and respects the user data. Sure, it's not E2EE, but no E2EE app can ever do what Telegram is doing at this scale.

My concern isn't that this case is being prosecuted, but that all the stronger cases aren't. Sure, breaking campaign finance laws is bad and should be prosecuted, but he tried to overthrow the government! He had tons of classified documents in his basement and refused to return them. I truly do not understand why he hasn't been arrested for those two. They're more serious crimes, and there's plenty of evidence.
Only remotely relevant, but I have recently come across Gremlin, a sort of “SQL for graphs”. Does anyone have some experience with it they can share? I only used it on an in-memory graph database, and I found it quite great so far.

Voter suppression is actively trying to deny the rights of citizens, while 'enabling' (no I.D., easy to vote) is just a side effect of allowing people to exercise their constitutional right without having to get a government ID.

You have every right to feel the way you do, but to me it seems like a lopsided comparison. When one party is trying to remove a right and one party is allowing access to that right (even if a few people take advantage of it, but I am not convinced this occurs), this strikes me as evidently 'one wrong, and one right though a little sloppy'. Comparing the two as on equal footing doesn't seem honest.

> The only failure point was that Unity’s TextMeshPro input fields didn’t trigger the Steam Deck native keyboard UI. Took a little hacking on it, but easy enough.

Sounds like you figured it out, so probably you know this, but the soft keyboard can be invoked using either the Steam API, or by triggering it with the standard Windows input accessibility APIs. So it usually works for games that already support soft input on Windows, with no further effort from the dev :) Maybe the TextMeshPro devs would be willing to add accessibility support in future versions, which would fix it on Steam Deck and also benefit Windows users.
The NYPD has covert operations not only all over the country but in many foreign countries so I'd say they're operating at a pretty high level of sophistication in that sense.
> a new precedent of "intent"

I'm confused by this. Intent is a well considered and discussed topic in the legal system. People are charged for entirely different crimes based upon intent (for example, murder vs homicide) and sometimes won't even be charged (for example, in an instance of a vehicle accident causing death).

Don't follow crypto in general but got curious.

First off, I misread the headline as Argentinian Airlines (plural) thinking it was a large airline instead of "Low-cost carrier Flybondi has expanded its partnership with NFT ticketing company TravelX to offer all tickets as NFTs on the Algorand blockchain."

So I next looked for info on Algorand and found it as #14 on a list of cryptos for 2021 (updated for 2023). The outcome to consumers may not be all that different than say Ticketmaster, which isn't great.

On the contrary, I have spent quite a while considering how to respond to comments like these and this was the best I could come up with. I'm open to suggestions on what I might do instead but I will point out that the current options you've put forward either 1. make it very asymmetric to respond to stupid comments or 2. allow them to proliferate, which drives away and buries interesting conversation.

I use GPT-4 to kind of get me started with some code I'm trying to figure out. But rarely just cut and paste what it out puts. Unless its something obvious and simple to read. Also another thing I do is sometimes I'll take the GPT produced code and paste it back into ChatpGPT with GPT 4 enabled in a new chat window. Just to see how it describes its own code. Sometimes it can't explain its own output well enough to follow along.

But as others have pointed out - GPT is great if you know exactly what you're looking for and are using it to save time typing up bunch of stuff. Great for boilerplate stuff and doing mundane stuff like writing unit test code.

what you perceive as "women having unequal chance to get [into Congress]" is actually just comparing the ratio of men to women in Congress, noting that it's not 1:1, and claiming that this somehow is indicative of institutionalized discrimination, and assuming that there are no other factors at play. my red state has a female governor. women vote more than men in many demographics. women are doing just fine when it comes to having political power.

This hyperbole is really unnecessary. Game devs have many different incentives from a lot of directions that may result in a decision that is rational for them, that you dislike.
As with anything else it depends what you optimise for and at the most basic level the car uses the engines to accelerate at all speeds but might need to use break pads at slow speeds.

Slowing things down is a real effect that will impact how circumstances unfold.

> I don't think that's what Castle Rock v. Gonzalez means. It pretty narrowly addresses "legitimate claim of entitlement" related to enforcement of a restraining order. Scalia specifically held that "enforcement of the restraining order was not mandatory under Colorado law," which means that a state COULD mandate enforcement, but that Colorado had not.

That's actually not true! Read the ruling itself and you'll see. Or if you can't read the ruling, read the legal analysis of it.

The ruling is incredibly broad and exhaustive. It basically said "Colorado didn't, but even if they had, they couldn't because that would be unconstitutional, and even if it weren't, the Due Process clause wouldn't apply, and even if it did, the value would be $0".

It basically preempted five levels of rebuttals to the law, making it difficult or impossible to overturn it without directly abandoning stare decisis.

Scalia'a argument for why the law was unconstitutional basically boils down to "police have always enjoyed near-unlimited freedom, and this law is too recent in the scale of US history, so it contradicts historical precedent". Which is another way of saying that states can't pass laws to restrict police discretion, because any law that is passed is by definition... "recent".

The ruling did that because the Colorado law was quite explicit in how it mandated a right to enforcement, so there was no other way to overturn the law.

And as if that's not enough, the precedent applied is quite clear: courts including in New York City have specifically used Castle Rock to rule that police do not have a duty to protect, serve, prevent crime, or intervene in a crime that is taking place, even if they were specifically dispatched to arrest that particular criminal for that particular crime. (Yes, that last part was an NYC court ruling that cited Castle Rock as precedent).
