Which says something about his ability at this whole thing I guess, if he can't get it right even after having been through it. So, I guess you are saying it's not just shittily marked (which it's not) but also the lights are confusing, I re-watched it to check that.

The red light comes into view first actually and only then does the green one come into play, but fair enough that this doesn't say much. As soon as you're past the big bend and going straight towards the light (i.e. before the final bend) I can clearly see one red light that the car and driver are facing head on and another green light, which is slightly turned on an angle from the car/driver. As we get closer, we can even see that they did this on purpose, i.e. the red light is purposefully not right above the road and facing the road head on (which would only be the tiny part of if after the slight right bend) but is clearly meant for the people coming around the big bend, so they can see from afar that there's a red light. Then as you turn the slight right bend before turning left onto the main road, you have the regular lights as you would see at any t-intersection and they're clearly red.

Also any driver that is unclear of what the lights mean should simply slow down so they have more time to survey the situation, which if they interpret all the perfectly visible lights correctly at a late point only, they are slow enough that breaking would stop them where they should stop.

Instead it seems that people are siding with the auto-pilot, which thinks that he very clearly has a green light and takes the intersection at speed. It barely slowed down from 30 to 27 before taking the actual left turn of the intersection so it seems to have been very sure of what it's seeing. So if people are saying that this is an unclearly lit intersection, the auto-pilot disagrees and it thinks that it very clearly is that green light that's meant for the road its on.
Looked that up thinking I'll disagree, but actually yes. As you grow in your role, you get to a point where the number of incoming "quick requests" outpaces your ability to keep up.

To most people they're just asking for a quick 10 minutes of your time, what's the big deal. But they don't see the other 20 people doing the same thing. If you devote 200min+ of every day to fulfilling others' requests, when will you have time to do your own work?

The problem grows only worse the higher in the org chart (formal or informal) you get.

Someone like a VPofEng may have 100 people asking "quick questions" all the time. Without the Wally Deflector, there's literally not enough time in the day to even have all these conversations, let alone do anything about 'em.
That "eat less"needs to be elaborated. Eating less beef is not the same as eating less tomatoes. :-)
That's ...not a feature of React Native. It's possible to reload the app's content on code change, but this very clearly intended for development only.
"Exercise makes you healthier" is hardly an earth shattering revelation. Everyone knows the benefits of exercise, especially unhealthy people. That is still usually not enough of a motivator, however, hence the reliance on fad diets and drugs.
> I want to see the old world before things really destabilize.

To future generations, the new world will be their "old world". And so it goes.
And it's funny how they always crash in the USA, isn't it?
The problem for me is less the Mac and more MacOS. It doesn't really feel that different from Windows to me now. Both are memory-bloated and shoving advertisements in your face for first-party services constantly. They both conspire to make their OSes weaker and curb-cut their services to the point of being mandatory. They both hide meaningful options in esoteric databases and force you to crawl through shitty settings menus to get what you want.

I feel terrible for consumers who have to use these systems now. Compared to the seclusive bliss of a Mac OS 7 machine, modern MacOS is an assault on the senses. MacOS has a lot of great things to show for itself, but I'm not convinced Apple can save it with the direction they're headed in.
> the rubicon was corporate personhood.

Agreed, big mistake there. And next to impossible to fix now.

These jobs do exist[1], and we as a society need to figure out how to stop organizing research around a single manager (professor) with zero meaningful oversight.

But you can't run most models on the consumer AMD GPUs, so even though AMD "allows" it, nobody except supercomputer clusters uses AMD GPUs for compute, because all the expensive data scientists you hired will bitch and moan until you get them something they can just run standard CUDA stuff on.
Yeah, I don't live in a big city, but we're sort of close. It seems like it might make sense to ship to a nearby big city operation, but I guess once you're shipping, may as well go out of state.
have you tried coolify?
If someone is in a state of pain, unwillingness to change their circumstances or their responses to circumstances will stop them from leaving that state of pain. It’s hard to not call our personalities ‘responses to circumstances’ to some level.

There is no objective measure for ‘serious’ or not trauma, near as I can tell. It’s usually subjective measures like pain scales, or subjective judgements like level of dysfunction in daily life.

A veteran who physically attacks anyone wearing a uniform is a pretty easy diagnosis, compared to say an outwardly successful executive who has managed to hide his severe alcoholism. Both have issues.

Hypervigilance can also be known as ‘noticing things others don’t’, ‘being exceptionally very aware of others needs’, ‘being able to read people’s minds’, ‘seeing it coming before anyone else’, etc.

It’s adaptive when the environment has unpredictable and real threats. A soldier in a war zone who notices that twig snap in the background and wakes up is adaptively hyper vigilant. It can (and often does) keep him alive.

A leader (or follower) who notices their boss is going insane before it’s too late to get away, or that one of their folks is acting weird before they can betray the group? Similar.

The programmer who can’t get to sleep because they’re constantly trying to figure out why they think something is going wrong is maladaptively hyper vigilant.

But that could be because they aren’t being allowed to see what is wrong, not because there is nothing wrong. Or maybe it is because they’re overused to solving problems, and lack of a problem to solve is concerning.

It’s the state of always noticing what is going on around you and who is doing what, and frankly hyperfocus could be a part of it too.

That’s turning all that energy into what has been identified as the actual problem/threat (at the moment). Think tunnel vision.

Focus is nothing if not ‘removing undesired/confusing data from the picture’ after all.

Trauma reactions tend to be things like Hypervigilance, or complete tuning out/dissociation, or hyper aggressiveness (always fighting everything, even when it makes no sense), or extreme manipulation (as the threat was someone who could not be directly fought/won against). Each of these have corresponding disorders on various axis, though they aren’t called out as such near as I can tell.
Oh, I know. And I continue to be amazed at how much healthier of an engineering culture ULA has than Boeing for just that reason. It would be one thing if it split off before the "out-sourced profits" era at Boeing. I'm not familiar with how the amalgamation happened, though.
Why get the data piecemeal from license plates, when you can get it straight from the cars themselves? /s

Is this news? I'm genuinely asking - TLO and other skip tracing tools have been around for a while, and have been offering license plate location data for years.

The ACLU issued a report on how ALPR devices are used to track people in July 2013 (1).

Flock Safety (2) was founded in 2017 and has raised $381M from name-brand VCs like Tiger Global and A16Z. The ACLU raised concerns about them a year ago in a report. (3)

There aren't many cultural guardrails on consumption. We're not supposed to practice gluttony, but what does that mean in the modern world?

We can all agree that we shouldn't buy a private jet to fly between our yachts.

But what about that flight from NYC to vacation in Brazil? Is having lots of children gluttony? What about buying stuff online? Living in the suburbs? Driving kids to a better school for a better education? Driving kids to a special music school to develop their talents? Driving to save time vs public transit? Eating meat? That cross-country RV trip? Air conditioning in your house? What about an international flight to a climate conference? Building a big factory to restart American industry? A giant hospital for treating people who made poor health choices? Helicopters to rescue people from accidents during outdoor adventures? Is racking up billions of dollars in assets gluttony by itself, or only when you spend it in a gluttonous way?
That's because the Democrats are not leftist in any meaningful sense. They are basically a centrist party who are heavily captured by corporate owners. Disagreeing with Democrats != moving right
So as far as I understand, if I have the latest AMD microcode on my system, at least on Linux, I don't really have to worry about this anymore?

As a sidenote, any word on Microsoft working on this?
It might seem a little sketchy but it worked well. When they flew it on a small rocket to test it, the rocket accidentally broke apart but the escape tower system then performed perfectly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqeJzItldSQ
It isn't perfect, but it does bring tiling window management to Gnome. The killer feature for me is that it remembers which workspace windows are on when external monitors are connected and disconnected.
As always, know I understand the work you do and that a healthy online community requires a heavy hand sometimes.

I suppose my argument is that there is more room for personal criticisms, negatives comments and unsubstantiated opinion in a thread discussing a public figure's life than a more technical/abstract topic.

That is all; I won't push the subject.
This actually backs up what they said in the hearing. There's an extra level of security regarding UFO documents, and even people who are supposed to have access are stonewalled. The members of congress in the hearing appeared to confirm this.
This seems pointless to me. These platforms already use Widevine and similar services for this purpose.
> completely neglects to mention any delay whatsoever when talking about the Crew-1 launch

The Crew-1 delay was three years ago. Why would he mention it in this article?

> spins a lack of a confirmed updated launch date less than three weeks after discovery of issues into a delay that will approach 2025

Reasonable, given how it's gone so far. They've yet another parachute issue, and accidentally used "hundreds of feet" of flammable tape.

> "perhaps even after Crew-9", which is hilarious given that even Crew-8 doesn't have a launch date other than towards the middle of next year, and Crew-7 is currently facing new delays

Crew-9 in 2024 is hardly an unreasonable assumption. Crew-8 is scheduled NET February 2024, not "middle of next year". Crew-7 is facing a two day delay, because of another launch. https://www.space.com/spacex-crew-7-astronaut-launch-delay-a...

Pretending that's relevant in assessing Starliner's multi-year delays is nutty.
Sure, AMD could write a CUDA emulator (if it was legal) for AMD GPUs, but if it's one tenth the performance, whats the point?
> If the argument is that the fundamental underpinning of all these religions is untrue, unreasonable, or directionally opposite to modern science then the details are not important.

And that argument is fundamentally flawed, and is the point I'm trying to make. While it may apply to other religions, it does not apply to Islam. This is where Dawkins and his ilk show their ignorance and fall flat, and falsifies their entire approach. What appears to them as (or them falsely assuming to be) underpinnings, isn't, if I can put it in another way.

I don't see the parallel to the example you gave. Once you're inside a religion, then you can discuss its details and nuances like the examples you gave. That's a completely orthogonal discussion however. Dawkins and the neo-atheist movement are arguing core basics like the existence of God, then using some fallacies that some religions commit to discredit every religion. See the problem there?
Willingly and knowingly threw away a promising mainstream pop career to make that statement. Eternal respect.
I see your comment about intrusive thoughts. Don't hesitate to speak to a doctor about them and take medication for it.

I put off doing that for almost two decades, when I finally did after an attempt it really changed my life around.

I'm now on a maintenance dose of trazodone, and thought I've went off of it a few times, I think I'll stay on it for good now. It keeps future episodes away and it does wonder for your sleep. I'd agonize over the days event's for an hour or so after going to bed, but it really helps me fall asleep in 15-20 minutes.
That depends. If it super conducts, but it isn't useful in the real world, then we will be waiting for theory to - hopefully - give us some insight into how to improve things to useful.

This only can carry a small amount of current. I'm not sure how to figure out what small means (numbers are given in the article if you know how to use them!), but if the losses using regular wire are less than the energy needed to make this stuff then it isn't useful.

This is made out of lead. Even if it is useful for transmission, the difficulty of working safely with lead in a factory may mean it is impractical. Or it make leach lead into the real world making it not safe to deploy.

There are probably other ways this can turn into a "it works but isn't practical" thing that would force us to wait for theory (or luck!) to point to something better. What I wrote above is what I can think of in a couple minutes. Only time will tell though, I hope it works out.
Sounds really unnecessary. What is there not to trust in an actual lottery? Are the people that go on TV to show the results not worth the job they have?

Why does the website have a starting sentence that includes:

"a passion project I hold dear to my heart."

What is it about lotteries or smart contracts that have people that saying "dear to my heart". The only thing "dear to my heart" is probably my wife and family. I don't know how something related to money could be. And I have a hard time trusting a person that has a passion project dear to their heart related to lossless lottery systems.
A good point. A couple thoughts here might be:

1. They make exceptionally few mistakes overall anyway;

2. Perhaps it is the interaction between armed force technology and their vehicles which creates problems for them (whether intentional or not from our side);

3. The majority of our land surface area is not inhabited at any given moment. Maybe these drones, or whatever they are, do not even care about life here, and are not particularly attracted to cities or people, and are statistically more likely to fail out of reach of most populated areas just because that's what our geographic distribution is like.
I visit a lot of websites that show blank pages upon seeing that I have an adblocker, so the technology to prevent serving those who have adblock is still there, I 100% of the time, saw the message to disable adblocker and just left the website.

This tech is not to prevent serving content to people who adblock, this technology is to make sure that people don't have the ability to make that choice and force certain setups that prevent adblocking

Intrigued by "The Cube," that mind-bending 90s classic? Let's channel its mystique into the ever-evolving world of cybersecurity!
"The Editorial Board" in this case is the Wall Street Journal itself. It's relatively common with legacy newspapers.
It is fueled by the advertising race (companies bidding against each other to complete for consumer's attention), which was in turn fueled by the monetary policy (effectively giving companies low-interest money hoping they would come up with the next TikTok).

In other words, we injected money into that sector, so we saw it growing. The question is, how far can it be sustained after the interest rates are up, and whether we could possibly lower them without immediately triggering another inflation wave.
Truly, though, if you were to honestly treat it like the weather, it would determine your housing/infrastructure with year-round effects. The weather for my region doesn't demand A-frames to support massive amounts snow - if one of our contractors put up a house in North Dakota in June while only considering the near-term weather, the flat roof would collapse in the long term. Have fun with your purchase of a snowplow because tomorrow's weather calls for snow.
I'd advise that one make decisions only for the time they are willing to address their effects. If you don't consider 20 years out, leave the decision-making about 20-year-goals to those who do, and both support and comply with their choice when they enforce things like EVs, agricultural reform, and other environmentally supportive/regenerative actions. Otherwise your default (non-compliance with and distrust of the "weathermen") is a decision to effectively subvert the efforts of those who do care and are informed. Your pronouncement here is effectively proselytizing nihilism. Such cultural disease is probably better kept to yourself.
McDonalds app requires safetynet (effectively the same as this proposal) passing to access their app. Is that really required?

I just took the ones I liked and then deleted out the words that were specific to that image and left the ones that were providing the style of the image. So for example on the first one I would delete "an cute kitsune in florest" but would keep "colorfully fantast concept art". Then I just added a comma separated list of the of the features I wanted in my picture. It took a lot more trial and error than I thought and adding sentences seemed to be worse than just individual words. I am sure I barely scratched the surface of interfacing with the tool correctly but the space is moving so fast its not the kind of thing I want to spend my time learning right now just to have that knowledge deprecate in 6 months.

> Grothendieck was, to be clear, a strong mathematician compared to most anyone, but these peers were the most talented young mathematicians in France, and unlike Grothendieck, who had spent the war in an internment camp at Rieucros, near Mende, they had been placed in the best schools and tutored.

Weil was also in a camp. Honestly, I can't stand Geothendieck. Where's the piece about how sociable Serre and Deligne were (and still are), and how much they contributed along side Geothendieck, but without going full bonkers?

Fine, schemes and etale topology are great, the category theory viewpoint is enlightening, but at the end of the day I'm interested in Deligne's (two) proof(s), in Mazur's torsion theorem, in Wiles' theorem, etc. Grothendieck's foundation is said to be fundamental to all of these, but I'm not so sure.

Precisely. These are not people who have a relationship as a serious option anyway, so it is best that they are sated as best as possible with AI rather than turning into the terrorists they tend to admire.

> When it works for me though, I think it looks like people going out of their way to point the finger at themselves, and nobody going out of their way to wag a follow-up finger at them.

This is how I prefer it too, but the problem is that honesty is a luxury when times are good. When times aren't so good, having a self-documented history of failure doesn't help your case for retention when the jerk next to you who deflects everything appears to be a golden boy.

> I'm not sure hiding it would be helpful, but I haven't tried that.

From the police playbook: after raising awareness of a problem, proactively make excuses for other teams and/or deflect blame to a vendor ("we don't know it's that team's fault; they're understaffed and we don't know what they're having to deal with over there; give them a break because nobody can understand the vendor's fucking incoherent documentation and their software is garbage anyway"). Confusing the issues and misdirecting blame gives the team time to address the problem while saving face. Everybody hates Microsoft anyway so they're an easy scapegoat. (Sorry, Microsoft employees.)

For better or worse, it fosters a culture where people cover for each other, not throw each other under the bus. This is how you wrangle even the most toxic Narcissists-- they recognize and appreciate when someone's doing them a public favor, and (IME) this compels them to respond in kind because they'll want to one-up you as everyone's savior. (We're starting to see this with all the moral crusading and self-appointed "safety" workers. All Narcissists.)
You seem to have taken the Seaspiracy video at face value and just accepting everything they say. I'm a working marine ecologist, and I can tell you that _at best_ they are twisting tihngs to the worst possible interpretation. Documentaries are not fair and balanced descriptions of reality. ALmost ever. You should take what they say with massive heaps of salt.

As for "I never said ALL fisheries were unsustainable".

Yes you did. When you refused to acknowledge nuance and that some of them were fine, and to not tar the entire industry with a broad brush, that was you saying that they are all bad. You can't have it both ways. You are trying to now admit nuance, when admitting nuance is all I wanted from you from the beginning. If you are willing to admit they aren't all bad and some are sustainable, then don't call the entire industry destructive. None of your links is going to get around that one fact, and none of your links are refuting it.
