Strep is one of those pathogens being actively studied within this context by the PANS clinic at Stanford. It’s been shown to demonstrate “molecular mimicry” whereby its protein signature resembles various parts of our bodies (in the worst case)… with portions of the heart and brain (basal ganglia) occasionally being affected. I suspect there are other pathogens out there that can do the same, but who knows!

These are sort of mutually exclusive. Berlin used to be poor, but as of 2019 it’s richer than the German average. This is admittedly unimpressive for a city-state, but still: Berlin is no country for poor men. It was, but no longer.

Yes. Many groups are pretty much dead, but there are some that are active (a handful that are QUITE active). The quality of the active groups ranges from "60% flames" to "these are Ph. D's talking to each other about things I will never understand". Though most, of course, are somewhere in-between.

Compare this to Reddit however you like.

I don't think that is how Stripe is doing it. The React app code is baked into their docs seamlessly, it's not two different things.

I have researched this to get the definitive, but it's difficult to find out what Stripe is using exactly. They are 100% generating their content statically though, and their user docs are dynamic with data.
Different cars have different systems, but mine has never triggered for a car coming into my lane. Sometimes it's triggered on cars leaving the lane while slowing though.

Otoh, I won't use the adaptive cruise control, because the granularity for following distance settings is too coarse, so I have to pick either follow closer than I'd like or follow far enough back that people treat it as an engraved invitation.

I'm not a big user of cruise control anyway, so no big deal. I'm also less frequently driving long distances on I-5, so not in that situation much anyway.

Sadly, most anything is disorienting in crash situations. I recall how disoriented my mother was when a car came from the side and almost hit us. She tried braking and swerving, but that just caused a hydroplane and when the wheels got traction again, jerked us to the side. She was convinced the other car hit us. I was, too, all told. Until I saw that there was no impact on the side of our car.

Which is to say, you aren't wrong. I prefer folks knowing what their stuff can and will do. I am not clear on what that really says about deploying AEB. How many folks have no idea why their seatbelts lock up if you pull them all the way out, until you let them retract all the way? Very useful feature that they should not wait for everyone to know about before sending it out.

I’m asking because I’d like to know if comments of that nature are considered rule breaking.
I'm not arguing for nor against regulations, I'm simply commenting on the whole "well, it's technically not stealing, therefore it is OK" debacle, all that means is that legally speaking, it's OK, that doesn't make it ethical.
ChatGPT Is Drunk: Hidden Prompt Injection with Browsing
The idea behind napkin math is you start with something real or reasonable to assume as accurate and then extrapolate.

The original comment did exactly the same thing the person you're replying to did. They just pulled a vague feeling about the product out of their ass. That "3-4hr/week" saving is exactly as founded as this commenter's "$30 total".

That they wrote more and did math with their vague feeling is less logical not more. It's masking an emotional hunch with the sort of language people use when they actually are being logical.
I, for one, think there's a business model where you can get users to play-to-earn. I doubt it's a five year term but it can happen. There are still plenty of decisions that a human can make that a computer can't make that it would be profitable to use a game to get people to make those decisions and have the company sell the service. The hard part is deciding what those abilities are and how to package them so they are attractive to businesses and consumers.
OmniWeb was great! I think Opera still did it first, though.

I moved on to Safari after it died, but I missed vertical tabs dearly and still do. Hopefully this idea catches on well enough for the Safari team to finally steal it.

I have wanted something like this for years, and your take on it is way better than what I had in mind. I think the pricing is fine, I plan to pay for a month and see if it lives up to my hopes. Awesome job on the marketing page and demo video.
I’d imagine this is exactly the sort of analysis the powers NHTSA’s recommendations. They collect huge amounts of data on this stuff.
> we're supposed to mentally jump through hundreds of hoops

No, I don't believe anything like that. In fact I think """Theorists""" are always wrong because it is always impossible to speak to other people's intent. It's hard to even trust a person to accurately tell you their own intent. The system selects for true believers, because there is no more effective mind control than what feels like one's own decisions. I would like to unironically suggest this piece by T. Kaczynski — please don't shoot the messenger :) https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/ted-kaczynski-the-sy...

This is why there's so much overlap between the security state and the 20th Century development of advertising. Both rely on accurately predicting the public's reaction given some stimuli, then trying to inject the most effective stimuli. In advertising it's done in pursuit of profit. In statecraft it's done in pursuit of ?????. Remember that propaganda doesn't mean lies, it means idea-you-feel-compelled-to-share: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_on_Public_Informatio...

"[George] Creel urged [Woodrow] Wilson to create a government agency to coordinate “not propaganda as the Germans defined it, but propaganda in the true sense of the word, meaning the 'propagation of faith.'”. "Creel later published his memoirs of his service with the CPI, 'How We Advertised America', in which he wrote:

“In no degree was the Committee an agency of censorship, a machinery of concealment or repression. Its emphasis throughout was on the open and the positive. At no point did it seek or exercise authorities under those war laws that limited the freedom of speech and press. In all things, from first to last, without halt or change, it was a plain publicity proposition, a vast enterprise in salesmanship, the world's greatest adventures in advertising… We did not call it propaganda, for that word, in German hands, had come to be associated with deceit and corruption. Our effort was educational and informative throughout, for we had such confidence in our case as to feel that no other argument was needed than the simple, straightforward presentation of the facts.”"
I think your summary is a bit too reductive. I laid out a fairly comprehensive list of issues that are unique to the JavaScript ecosystem and you highlight one point I made about wasting resources. I don't see as many parallels with the past as you. Certainly software has bloated. But, few application platforms are as difficult to optimize for as the web. Working with HTML fragments, the shadow DOM, reducing unnecessary renders, figuring out the most efficient way to find nodes, etc. are things you don't have to deal with with most GUI toolkits. The closest thing I've seen is avoiding a full window repaint by only painting a region that's changed.

To tackle that complexity we keep creating new frameworks, but those often bring their own bloat. So, we create new frameworks. Any time a new framework comes out, there's a light-weight variant that follows (e.g., React and Preact). There's potentially money to be made by building an influential library or framework and I think that has had an adverse impact as well. The entire JS ecosystem is built around a commercial package management system. That's virtually unheard of. I guess Maven Central gets kinda close?

My contention is that if we took a step back and re-evaluated the platform and added a real standard library, I posit we could cut a lot of this out. You could take everything that's good and make it better.
I used Opera over other browsers for a long time for performance reasons, it had M2, my favorite email client ever to this day, which got rid of traditional "folders", there's an alternate timeline somewhere where Opera won the browser wars and they already have flying cars and a federated web.

My father is 87 and drives well. He is cognizant of his age and tries to only drive during the day and relatively short distances (I like 90min away and he is not visiting).

My fear is that if there is a decline that I won’t see it, and at 87 he isn’t interested in a new car with more safety features.
>The only way for the sales folks to tailor a demo or presentation for you is to learn about your business. Your method here comes across as very transactional and impersonal, you need a relationship with your sales rep as much as they need one with you so they will have your back or give you discounts. It's how the game is played.

My POV:

Most of the time none of these things are only value-detractors, not value-adders. 95+% of the time I know what I want I just need a price and someone to hand me a credit card form for it. Very occasionally I have a specific need and am fishing for a solution. As for relationship and trust? There is a complete divergence of interests between me and people selling me stuff, there is not and cannot be 'trust'. Sure it is nice to small talk once in a while but that's really not why I'm calling.

Accordingly I divert my spend to the largest extent possible towards suppliers with transparent pricing, transparent technical data, and a friction-less sales process (Read: no synchronous communication requirements).

Extending the JavaScript grammar into a domain-specific language, and then generating conforming code to run, almost requires adding Babel.js to your build and then doing a lot more work than writing a Lisp macro. Most devs probably never will.
I'm getting downvotted, implying that I'm off my rockers lol.

I promise to all of you that I'm somewhat correct, and I have all the data to prove it.

I've always wondered why brakes don't have a variable brightness based on how hard the driver is braking. If you've ever been behind someone who has braked hard, part of the danger is not realizing just how fast they're stopping.
Hey there, I’m a grad student studying Interdisciplinary Studies with a focus in computer vision. Anyway, I’m going backpacking this summer in Spain but I’m thinking about what to do next if I can’t get someone to pay for a PhD or if I’m ready to be done after this next year. Happy to talk with people and start making connections, etc.

I am a career changer from
aviation. I was a professional pilot for over a decade and always hobby programmed here and there on the side. I got sick and my eyes got messed up a bit so flying is out (turns out they frown on flying when you cannot see well), but I can still write code, so it’s time for a new adventure.

I have a BS in Aviation, a BS in Math, and my current masters program is mostly focused on comp sci and stats. Personally, I’m really interested in building tools and just generally seeing where we can leverage these tools to make people’s lives better.

I speak English as my native tongue, I’m conversant and can get by in Spanish, and my Russian is pretty good (I was an exchange student in Ukraine many years ago, just need to practice again).

Location: Anchorage, Ak
Remote: that’s basically all I want, I got a taste of this once and it’s glorious.

Technologies: python, sql (a little), some AWS, Keras, a little JavaScript, and random other things here and there. Willing and excited to learn whatever stack you have.

I’m quite interested in devops, ML (it’s part of my research), and tools. I like making things that people use.

That's true of basically any change isn't it? Even seat belts conceivably could result in some very small increase in the chance of death as a result of it being harder to escape a vehicle. Obviously the benefits far outweigh the risk, but then we are just arguing over where to draw the line.
Way back in the day, Reddit was marketed as a way to create a forum without any technical setup, and then to view content across all the communities you were a “member” of in one place. You can still see glimpses of that, I think when you signup or register a subreddit it suggests making one for your dnd clan or something like that.

I don’t think Reddit realized how smart this strategy would end up becoming, because over time what happened is that existing Reddit users would just join the subreddit for some topic they were interested in (like a band) instead of seeking out forums for it on the web. Eventually enough people started doing that, that subreddits for a topic would absolutely dwarf any single traditional forum in activity. Because reddit is a single site they could also do a bunch of SEO optimizations due to having larger scale than independent forums. The result is a massive network effect and controllling the top-of-funnel for online discussions on the web.

Anyway, what fucked up Reddit was that after 2010 or so they started turning it into more of a consumption platform than a discussion platform, plus various issues with moderation (the emergence of powermods who are all secretly monetizing their subs to help advertisers, implementing platform-wide moderation policies), turning it more into a centralized service with less focus on discussion.

Honestly, combining the web with forums provides like 90% of what you want, it just doesn’t do aggregation, nor does it let you directly ban a mod (but you can always switch sites). But it does decentralize auth, moderation, servers, and allow more freedom in how a subreddit-equivalent gets run while also allowing moderators to directly monetize their sites rather than having to resort to secretive scheming. Maybe we simply need some kind of protocol or common API + FOSS client that lets you automatically grab and sort top posts from a list of forums that implement the protocol.
No, that isn't a problem with numbers. That is a problem with letting your imagination run things.

The scenarios and questions you ask are easy to explore in the data. If the number of crashes goes down, contrived scenarios don't really impact things. If they stay flat or go up, then you have to answer why.

To emphasize, for your imagination here to be relevant, the number has to do one of those. If the number goes down, even if it shifted some situations into a wreck that would not have been before, it must have done fewer of those than it moved wrecks to non-wrecks. If it somehow causes more situations to be wrecks, the number, by definition, goes up.

This always seemed like a matter of wealth + intent meeting a law firm willing to make the argument rather than a viable legal theory.

I can't imagine that if this was a significant cost for the party filing the suit that they would have prosecuted it.

Given the wording of the law (even absent the recent subsequent laws) you can't claim privilege over public land like that.

If the ruling were any different it would have been terrible for the idea of public lands being for public use.

A driver that drives unreasonably more slowly than the traffic that surrounds them is a bad driver. They cause traffic and create more chances for crashes -- after all, crash severity is directly proportional to relative speed between moving bodies.
There's a good chance the land owner already rents out access to the public land for quite a lot of money.

Android would still be running Google so I guess it's a risk either way. At least Apple seem to be more secure by default without any user config.

Can confirm phantom braking is a problem. I was driving an ionic 5 and it activated emergency brakes despite not having any forward sensors (due to an earlier accident) and braking supposedly being disabled due to lack of sensors.
> Will you consider source-availabling the web portal (app.keygen.sh) too?

I will. But I actually want to completely rebuild the portal app so that it’s easier to maintain. I (and everybody else) also want more customer-facing features, e.g. license management and offline activation, as well as white-label capabilities.

Right now, the dashboard is a pretty dated Ember app that I threw together in a couple weeks about 6 years ago. It’s hard to maintain, but does its job (mostly). I’ve been planning to completely start from scratch with React, but open sourcing the API and rebranding has been my main priority.

The new portal app will be open source too, likely under a more permissible MIT license.

My parents have a couple of newer Outbacks. My father, who's rather technical and pays close attention to these things, had commented repeatedly that he likes how Subaru appears to be more conservative in deploying new technology, but what they do deploy seems to be functionally solid and correct. (His opinion; YMMV.)

Also, they still provide physical knobs and switches for the important things; that includes climate controls and, I believe, the stereo.

I'm driving an 11 year old Forester and just as happy not to be dealing with all this crap quite yet. And the various satellite connectivity options on it have been left never activated.
