I'm just imagining having this technology become ubiquitous, then using it without knowledge of how it works. We end up with magic incantations that a general population does without reason. People already do so many things on their computers etc because that's how they learned it the first time--whether or not the specifics of their actions are relevant.
Celsius works well for that.

0 is where water freezes.

100 is where water boils.

50 is the temperature where healthy people outside will die if they stay out more than a hour or two.

Humidity and altitude affect these numbers, but handy for reference.
I think one thing that would tip this in a positive way is easy re-sharing of learning. I have plenty of "source code" now for conversations where I've taken something that was hard to find out (or code that was previously hard to write) through a non-LLM route. Publishing those conversations isn't as easy or re-adoptable into the commons as it could be.

(I'll note that proprietary models would be first-order disincentivised to stop this because such conversations can be used to better train other models, but of course they will benefit more generally for maintaining a commons of knowledge to draw from.)

Really can't understand why they don't keep at least one model that is aimed at people looking for a laptop you can work on, and not just another model with tenth of an inch shaved of the thickness of the laptop.

Someone mentioned that

> we need harsh penalties for people that intentionally block traffic
They were talking about people intentionally messing with SDVs and causing incidents

You tried to turn it on them by saying

> So for instance, the CEO of the self-driving car company should go to jail whenever one of their cars blocks a fire truck. Right?
Presumably equating a SDV having an issue with people intentionally blocking traffic.

I commented on that with a tongue-in-cheek statement about the CEO intentionally blocking firetrucks as a protest.

You replied with

> Not as a protest obviously, but that's irrelevant.

The other commenter said

> Intent matters.

You profess confusion about how their comment follows the thread, but that's the whole point. You said CEOs should be responsible for their vehicles blocking traffic in response to a message about people intentionally blocking traffic. That gives the appearance that you think a fault in a SDV is equivalent to intentionally blocking traffic. A SDV having a fault is like your car breaking down. Are you personally liable if your broken vehicle blocks a fire truck? You may be subject to the ire of the FD and they may destroy your vehicle in the execution of their duty, but you aren't treated like you intended to block traffic. You just happened to have a vehicle that decided to stop working.
Not sure why I got downvoted. Two people literally denied how websites work in order to prove their points.

It's actually not that black and white. Wood dust is linked to a statistically significant increase in the occurrence of a very rare nasal cancer. But the thing is, in woodworkers and in the general population alike, it's still a very rare cancer. You're orders of magnitude more likely to die of other cancers, whether you work with wood or not. This should be way, way down your list of risks.

There is a simpler reason to avoid wood dust: it causes allergies, asthma, and other non-cancer respiratory issues in a fair number of people.
It still boggles my mind that they paid SO much for it

Looking at python's asyncio coroutine library, they are just mocking multithreading with asyncio.gather. Since coroutines can be executed in any order they are not really control-flow mechanisms. The selling point of coroutines over traditional threads is its lightweight but its moot since goroutines has similar memory cost to coroutines. The only real benefit is that coroutines are non blocking while goroutines may be blocked. There is no real benefit of having python's coroutine in go since goroutines does the same but better.
IMO there should be strict controls on who can access this data and for what, and how long data can be retained, but given those limits, this is exactly the type of thing we should be doing to catch criminals.
I've been struggling with this for years - but with a fun twist. My gmail address is first.last, and someone in the UK keeps using it - but they do not have remotely the same first name, and they don't spell their last name the same as I do (the single-L in my username here is a less common deviation, their surname is the more common variant).

Years. I've closed netflix accounts, I've sent them sms from their telco's webtext portal asking them to stop, and still there's a koneill out there who is very, very confused about why his email doesn't work. I know where he lives, I know what pizza he ordered, I know his name, his phone number, I just don't know his email address. And apparently, neither does he.

The number of services that fail at email validation (or keep sending you reminders, forever, that you haven't validated), blows my mind. For such a simple process, that seems to exist on every single service I (and koneill) sign up for, it has a surprisingly low rate of successful implementations.
"It's easy to lose devices when you travel so just get a shit ton of devices. If you're a big enough of a fuckup to lose them all then you've got bigger life problems anyway."

Optional extra on Series 1 Citroën XMs, an immobiliser keypad programmed into the engine ECU. It cost about 100 quid in 1990 money, on a 40 grand luxury car. Most V6es and 2.5 diesels had them, few 4-cyl petrols or 2.1 diesels had them.

There's no need to spend $1.2M developing something that's already existed for a long time. This was actually a development of a similar keypad fitted to most Citroën CX Turbos, from the mid-1980s. The idea is nearly 40 years old.

It's inexpensive proven technology, and it works well.
I like Powershell but IMO it still has too many fundamental Microsoftisms for it to be practical on Unix systems.

I would opt for Nushell instead: https://www.nushell.sh/
This happens on non-government systems too. The only system I've experienced this has been a financial institution's system. Frustrating as it meant I had to make the trip into one of their branches to get it reset.
Yes, but they COULD. If for some reason they decide that something's wrong with their host, they could just go offline, export the data onto a new host somewhere, move some DNS targets and set up some redirects, and bam, new server. The point is that some one social media company doesn't have a lock on the site.
They were first designed (and patented) in 1919. More importantly is that they're now required on all new cars sold in the US according to Standard No. 114; Theft protection and rollaway prevention, though I'm not totally clear on when that got passed.

Given that it's an idea that has been in production vehicles for 40 years, I doubt you'd need to spend $1.2M to "develop" it.
Defining Open Source (from a legal standpoint)
Sorry but your posts sounds like a well rehearsed cliche you pulled out rather than a response to my comment.

I intentionally cited an example of someone having access to great density and transit (NYC) but making a different choice. The Toyota motor corporation doesn't seem to be in the mix on my decision here. Do you have something to elaborate here?

As for "especially in the US..." part, really? On simple Googling, seems like France has over 80% household rate of car ownership, and Japan has something close to 80% (two random countries I pulled) so while US is obviously higher, it doesn't seem like an obviously US phenomenon.

I may be off on what you are trying to say here but in my defense you haven't actually articulated an argument.
Don't worry, it will get even worse, because its foundations are worse than pythons - and it also has less flexibility because it's not interpreted. Like it or not, it's going to happen. I also predicted that generics would be added to Go and folks here laughed about it. :)
Checking near the Titanic seems like the obvious choice. Whether or not USN microphones helped much, I of course don't know.

But my point is that it was not the case that even with USN help it took them days to find it, implying USN could not locate it in less. It's simply not information one way or the other, on its own. This data is consistent with both them instantly knowing exactly when and where, and taking days.

I'd believe it can take hours to check a small area, taking care to not drift into anything, and aiming powerful narrow spotlights. Oh, and avoiding getting currents to smack you into something of a historic landmark.

Especially since the implosion had the power of some hundreds of kg of TNT, and parts can move around in the streams too, over the past days.
I'm pretty sure the previous poster and those continuing the argument about Framework laptops didn't read the article fully because shortlisting it as a potential upgrade among other options is no where near shilling.

I really wanted to like Nim, but its async story is not that great (no multithreaded runtime AFAIK, no channels) and albeit justifiable, I don't like the way it treats imports. I think Crystal and Go are better in the async space.

I thought I'd have more troubles with the case insensitivity thing, but it turns out, it wasn't a big issue at all, and UFCS is great.
Had this done to me BUT luckily WhatsApp has a “pin” feature, which prevented hackers getting any further. Not as secure maybe as a 2factor but saved my day. Highly recommend.
Yes, I absolutely would be cautious - if nothing else, attempting to stop him with deadly force may well be what triggers the situation to become violent and life-threatening for my family and myself.
But more importantly, all the circumstances I can realistically imagine myself trespassing into somebody's house do not involve me intending any harm to any of the occupants, so I would very much hope most people would approach such scenarios with similar caution.

The most common use near where I live is protecting signs, lights, or electronic equipment from bird poo. Second most common is protecting whatever is underneath the spikes, like car parking, pedestrian paths, or windows. You see them a lot in train stations protecting the electronic signs so they stay readable, or anything else hung from the roof which people might stand under.

Generally birds have plenty of other places to rest where they won't be inconvenient to humans. I've never seen anyone cover an entire rooftop with spikes.
Right, and part two, is that in the case of RHEL they backport features required to run on newer hardware, or enable things required for newer software stacks (crypto protocols for example). It just depends on whether its possible to maintain API/ABI stability and support the newer feature.

Vs, the other LTS distros that just track the upstream LTS kernel. That kernel both breaks things, as well as is "old" because its only generally taking security and bug fixes.
Yes but it’s the only item on the list with a link and really shouldn’t be on the list at all. A laptop with a two hour battery is a long way from perfect. I’ve seen too many of these articles for this to be a coincidence. Pretty sure it’s a PR campaign or paid influencers.

That's assuming there is a monopoly on providing parking spaces. Zoning notwithstanding, anyone can build a parking structure and rent or sell parking spaces. Tenants can choose whether to pay more for an apartment that includes parking or less for one that doesn't.

The total cost of a housing unit with parking wouldn't be be more than it is now because the cost of constructing a housing unit with parking wouldn't be more than it is now. It would just cause units without parking to become available.

Which would tend to increase housing availability, which would tend to lower prices including for units with parking. Because the people who want the parking spaces wouldn't have to bid against people who just want housing and don't need parking.
Don’t work in the field but I believe fast fourier transforms are commonplace so at least enough to have a solid grasp of that?
They control it a whole lot more than they do Twitter, Facebook, or any other central platform.

Control is a sliding scale. They could run it on a physical box in Wikimedia headquarters and you could still argue they don't fully control the server because their ISP could always cut them off.

You have to make reasonable decisions based on your threat model and how easy it would be to move up the level-of-control ladder if needed. Getting on Mastodon at all represents a huge leap forward, and frees them up to migrate to a higher level of autonomy later.
"And anyway, isn't the "corporate religion" these days to start with 0, since this as what the big mainstream languages does? "

Exactly this. Our firm had been forced to change numbering of real-life items from 1-based to 0-based, because some cargo-cultist somewhere was amazed by the offsets and addresses and wanted to force this numbering scheme everywhere.
Now there is a code inside that converts 1-based items to 0-based for legacy stuff, and we are still finding bugs caused by that. Every day to day operations are artificially harder because understanding what is actually unit number 1 or port number 2 is hard now, just like counting total number of anything and remembering to add 1 afterwards. But now we get to have a hype 0-based everything system, which nobody asked for. In some cases this can lead to such awesome combos like physical ports numbered 1-based, then 3rd party switch with 0-based, then Linux interface on top 1-based, then our config on top 0-based. Amazing and convenient, isn't it?:)
Right, but my argument is that there are many niches in the market where there is no competition, and startups should try to find that and then creates moats with IP, data, etc. There are many situations where startups don't have direct competition, because they are inventing something radically new. Often true in life sciences, for example. You're right that in those cases they are in a race against time, since someone will eventually come along, but they can go for years without a direct adversary.
You mean not growing the heap or literally no allocation?
Some hours is not what one should put into Vim, IMO. I've used it for many years and felt I got better at it very gradually (maybe I'm like that with most things). It's much more than hours! It's using it every day for a few years :)

To me this smacks of guilty until proven innocent. AI or any automated enforcement assumes checks everyone all the time. Put simply data like this should never be collected in the first place as that's the only way it will never be abused.
One of the PEI exemptions is "manufactured 25 years ago or more", which sounds like the same situation as Pennsylvania, no?

(I assume the "and" in the list on that page is the conversational meaning, not the legal meaning, since there aren't very many 25-year-old street sweeping mail trucks out there.)

PEI feels like the perfect sized province for a kei truck!

Your code is an example of a "pull iterator", and it's not as much of a concern.

The harder case to deal with is a "push iterator", which are often much simpler to implement, but less flexible to use. See https://github.com/golang/go/discussions/56413

The OP is about converting a push iterator into a pull iterator efficiently by using coroutines. This provides the best of both worlds, simple iterator implementation and flexible use by its caller.
It also took 40+ years. After WW2, NL was on a course to model American cities. There are some places that still harken back to that time. Dutch people also really like to drive, which nobody seems to talk about!

But now the trains have been privatized, the ticket prices jacked up, and gas taxes are absolutely bonkers right now. If we’re lucky, maybe the trains can be brought back into more direct government control in the next decade but I doubt it.

Good public transportation and city design is only enforceable through laws on the books. Dutch city planning in some ways is non-negotiable, but very fungible in others. We must stay vigilant if we want to see our small corner of the world continue to flourish and be a beacon of hope to North American and other western societies.
> But yes, many business owners (and the sorts of politicians they tend to vote) are irrationally attached to the idea that motorists are the ones who bring in the money

If they're so irrational, go and start a business with no parking! I'm not saying they don't exist, I'm saying that you're not appreciating the forces that make people put up with commutes and parking in the first place.

> pedestrians and public transit users are a more important source of income to downtown commercial services than motorists

My family and I bike everywhere. Obviously my dog in this race is more accessible cities.

I'm just being intellectually honest.

Like dude, the company that makes my e-bikes is going into receivership.

I live next to Valencia Street in San Francisco, and there was so much opposition to building new bike lanes, thoroughly vetted by experts, from cyclists themselves. I would almost call it "irrational."

They didn't even build the center lanes very far, because the center lanes from 23rd to Cesar Chavez would have reduced the way the megachurches use the center lane as free parking on Sundays.

The businesses on Valencia Street need those underage CSU revelers trucked in by Ubers. They cannot walk from a side street to Blondie's, the thing they pay for is to be dropped off in front of the door.

Someone has to deliver all that alcohol that sells! Someone has to truck the produce in gas-guzzling trucks to Rainbow. Someone's gotta gas-powered-bus the pickers to pick the produce at Rainbow.

This is my one neighborhood. You are welcome to try to start a new local business on the idea that "[poor people's] individual transactions tend to be smaller, but there are more of them." I can guarantee you will fail.

I appreciate that there are experts studying this. They are welcome to apply for civil jobs in San Francisco! They can go and win elections! I am aligned with those politics and want those outcomes, and I am not saying they are inaccurate at all. I am saying your "studies" an incomplete view on cities.
