Admiral Rickover (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyman_G._Rickover), the father of the nuclear navy would disagree with you, but probably in a much more nuanced way than direct contradiction.

It is not the red tape, but the difference between oversight and culture. You can not regulate safety and expect safety. Safety does not come from oversight. Safety comes from culture and a shared culture of responsibility for safety.

Therefore the adversarial nature of red tape, implying an entity that does taping and therefore bears primary responsibility for safety, encodes within it the set of incentives that will result in eventual doom because alignment is always for cheaper and not for the long term. Safety requires individual responsibility and therefore a culture of responsibility, not to shareholders or next quarters profits, but to a set of values such as safety and competence.

This hearing where the head of the nuclear navy tells congress about their philosophy of safety is very much worth a read: https://web.archive.org/web/20060629082752/https://www.navy....

The end result is that if you are talking about red tape at all then you have not reached a state of understanding because you must breach the topic of culture and alignment. Capitalist alignment of nuclear energy directly results in disaster. A culture that venerates next quarters profits should not run 30 year+ programs for which failure can result in centuries of contamination.

Do you want people cut from the same cloth that the people who run BP are cut from running nuclear? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepwater_Horizon_oil_spill

A congress that asks for cheaper will get cheaper. Unfortunately what is cheap in dollars can be expensive in property, lives, and well-being. A simple word like cheaper is too naive.
That tradeoff is already possible with the normal uBlock Origin; it just has a different (preferable IMO) default.

> Michael Jackson would not have existed if there was no money in the career. The money is why his father pushed so (insanely) hard.

I think the existence of Micheal Jackson is quite tragic, so I don't think it's a good thing that a system tortured him into being a famous musician
The white on black is so popular that I've heard people inquire about it at the DMV and get upset when the person working there tells them it doesn't exist!

The Reviver "RPlate" is strange to me. I can't imagine paying that much myself. BUT, I can see a huge market if they're marketed toward lessors. I have to imagine I'm not the first to think of this, and maybe this is already out in the wild...but if someone missed payments and the car was to be repo'd, it'd be hilarious if the Reviver plate changed to "REPO ME" or something.
In my thinking, tenses is a bit like compression where you can condense temporal relationships into a single word. In Thai, we are more explicit and add more words. Though Thai words tends to be shorter (since we have tones to disambiguate sounds), adding words are not that expensive. I’m not a linguist, so this is just a hypothesis.

Also, don’t take it the wrong way - the usage of superfluous is strictly logical. Like saying computer languages are superfluous (who ever needs anything other than an infinitely long tape?).

We know AI learns words or symbols from the training set, the training set is the only place it could possibly learning them, that’s not surprising. It’s only meaningful to see a shutterstock logo if the developers of the model are claiming shutterstock images weren’t used in the training.
Like the other post said, I assume they were manually sending the information to their merchant bank so there was a significant delay between when your account was created and when they discovered it wasn't real.

Additionally, at this time credit cards didn't have the 3 digit security code they have today so generating a 'valid' number was trivial.
What's with these half-baked and politically motivated opinionated pieces?

According to The Economist:

The good that's happening in India is due to Modi having "turbocharged" what his rival party Congress set out to do. How? By "pouring in" money, as if that alone is ever sufficient for any country's infrastructure.

The bad that's happening in India is due to Modi standing in the way of progress ("Yet Bhubaneswar also illustrates what is holding Indian cities back... Mr. Modi must try to give them more power")

Yes, The Economist can have political opinions, and it can (and does) call out what it dislikes about a party even when it really is not relevant, but if it does not have the courage to lay out facts with an open mind, it should stop pretending to have any measure of truthfulness or objectivity.
What even was the music market though? I think it was a spot where record labels could get rich off of music while musicians still had to pay their way with live shows and merch.

Why do I care if spotify's investors have replace the record label investors?
But the real question is did they design a special license plate only available to those people?
One thing I've noticed is that for years uBlock used to say 7% of all data requests was blocked; in this past year it's climbed to 8%. So almost 10% of data transferred is useless to me as it consists of ads, trackers and annoyances.

I wonder in my lifetime how much bandwidth and energy I've saved if a blocker has blocked around 10% of all data requests.

> since at times more then half of it’s nuclear power plants are off-line

Happened a few times only in 2022 because of covid + an issue affecting many plants being discovered as far as I know. Now being fixed. Otherwise worked pretty well for decades.

NREs being extremely often at <50% capacity, even practically zero in windless nights, is expected behavior.

And? All of the shared objects you bundle on Linux will eventually call system calls to do anything.

What does "no they don't" mean? People absolutely do bundle all their dependencies on Windows that aren't part of the stable platform guaranteed to be around forever.

On Linux the part of the stable platform guaranteed to be around forever the system call ABI.

There won't be UBI, period. Though I could see a future where obsolete people are warehoused in sex-segregated poor houses until they die out, if it's determined that their freedom is threat to stability.

It was a well known term, and even Apple fans would refer to the RDF (often as an excuse why something hadn’t turned out to be amazing as rumor had it).
The best time to plant a tree is 20 years. The second best time is now.

So to with nuclear power and other long term projects. Just because we needed these things built yesterday should not stop us from building them now.
I guess they're saying they, as a consumer, are disappointed? This is a confusing article, when they speak to UAV, Self driving vehicles etc, are they talking about industry consumers like Hyundai? (SK owns Uber in Korea). I don't think the average person on the street here in Korea cares that much about autonomous systems.

As a consumer of SK 5G, I'm certainly not disappointed. I recently visited other countries and I missed Korean internet so much, SK 5G is great!

Edit: reading the white-paper, I suppose they're talking about the average person on the street... Seems, odd.

"Even at the time when preparing for 5G, services such as autonomous driving, UAM,
XR, hologram, and digital twin had appeared and expected, but most of them did not
live up to expectations. We should have taken a more objective perspective. For example,
whether 5G technology alone could change the future, or whether the overall
environment constituting the service was prepared together. If so, the gap between the
public's expectations for 5G and the reality would not have been large.
3D video, UHD streaming, AR/VR, autonomous driving, remote surgery, etc. are
representative services that are not still successful presented by the 5G Vision
Recommendation. Most of them are the result of a combination of factors such as device
SK Telecom 6G White Paper
form factor constraints, immaturity of device and service technology, low or absent
market demand, and policy/regulation issues, rather than a single factor of the lack of
5G performance.
Therefore, to successfully settle innovative services in the 6G era, all participants in the
ecosystem should work together to prepare the environment along with 6G technology."

why dont we have a hn discussion on this? way more interesting than some ancient GC imho.
At least on MCUs, being slower can counter-act the lower active power, as you'll take longer to do whatever you want to do and go back to deep sleep.

I'd like to know if this also happens with these SBCs, or if they even have any aggressive power saving features that can be employed.

> Why does having no driver suddenly enable this?

No-driver will make it more economical eventually because:

1. There is no hourly wage to pay a driver.

2. The car can be utilized 24/7 (or most likely 16/7 based on demand, but much better than 8/5 of a typical shift driver).

> What is it about having no driver that suddenly makes cars green, free up space on the road, etc?

A confluence of things: electric cars, the cheaper rides, the critical mass of users so that algorithms can find ways for people to share.

Remember if I am using a bus now, and this is offering me a 30 minute journey but (oof!) sharing with other people instead of 1 hour on a bus, this is a good switch.

> Why would someone who owns a car now, want to wait around for a driverless taxi to pick them up?

The reason is posted to you several times each year: "Car service" "Registration Fee" "Compulsory Check" "Your Toll Invoice" "Third Party Insurance" "Comprehensive Insurance" "Speeding Ticket" "Parking Ticket" and so on. And that assumes you don't crash (on in my case, hit/run done on your parked car) and have to deal with that hell.

Selling your car, getting $X,000 and being free of all that is a relief.

> If you can work for an hour while your car drives you to the office, and you don't have to stress or worry about the traffic, why would you even bother with anything else?

Depends. Replace car with helicopter and the same applies. Not everyone wants to pay for a helicopter. Not everyone will want to pay for their own car when you can get it on demand. Say it costs $25 a day to own your own car and be taken, $10 a day for your own uber-like and $5 a day if you share. A lot of people will go for the savings. Even more so if cities add single-person taxes on cars to ease congestion.
A friend of mine who worked as a very high level consultant for years once said that consultants are often wrong, but never in doubt. Having just graduated doesn't really change that dynamic, as long as you have the confidence to pull it off.
Posting to confirm, having seen back-end sales numbers from (admittedly much smaller) vendors, the correlation between $just_bought_thing and $will_buy_another is very, very high, across pretty much every category I cared to look at.
debt does not offer control over company. if it were, it would have been called differently
Ever is a strong word. I shouldn’t rule out a future like that. But I don’t see the through line from our current ai to one that has entirely supplanted all human creation.

That consideration seems more along the lines of worrying about the eventual need to escape earth than a future on a closer horizon worth worrying about.

I’m more concerned about how every facet of our children’s lives will become inundated with shoddy ai being used to extract maximum profits at the cost of any humanness, and the death of all genuine communication on the internet.
> It didn't magically go from 67% to 8% in the year 2001.

In fact, it never did that. It went from x million pounds of production to 1.08*x million pounds of production. It also went from 67% domestic market share to y% domestic market share.

Gluing a couple sources together it looks like US domestic steel production was worth $90 billion in 2020 and U.S. Steel has a revenue of $21 billion in 2021. That said, this is a volatile market and 2021 had 20-30% higher sales than 2020 and 2022.
Turbo C was actually about the same price, I paid £32 I believe, and then paid £50 for the upgrade to Borland C++ 3.1 (all as a single purchase), vs paying the £200 or so for C++ on it's own. I remember it arriving the day after in a huge 'crate' full of books.
> which used to get you hauled in front of Congress

They still get hauled in front of Congress, but it doesn't seem to matter much nor affect their business.

You misunderstand the meaning of "free".

If it is possible to contribute to WMF monetarily, by volunteering in myriad ways, etc., and it is not supported in any other way, such as ads, subscriptions, corporate sponsors, then technically anyone who reads Wiki*edia or downloads content from Commons, Wikisource, etc., is freeloading without contributing anything.

The WMF doesn't mind, certainly, that there is a large plurality of freeloaders: that's their very model. But they also need money and volunteers to run everything, and that's why they're mugging you with dialog boxes.

If you don't have the time, effort, or expertise to volunteer for WMF, consider donating voluntarily, because you certainly do benefit from their mission, and see above about fungibility.

Frankly, though, it is far, far better to attempt to volunteer in some capacity, because as has been demonstrated, they're financially pretty flush, whereas the volunteer situation is always fairly desperate on several fronts.
What I mean is, they can easily be used as monads - and in fact every Excel user might do so without even knowing what a monad is. Like 41 is used in commutative expressions all the time by people who don't even know what communitivity or associativity mathematically is and that is a good thing! It means its useful and intuitive!

That's why I wish we could throw out the Math, if we can't even use Monads without mathematically knowing they are Monads then no one is ever going to be using them. There must be a way that these patterns can become so intuitive, like Pipes (weak) and Excel (strong) that they speak for themselves and become tangible.
Several years back a bunch of us pet-owning friends wound up round-robin gifting the same model SpotBot carpet cleaner to each other, because it was something we all agreed made our lives better. Nothing weird about it at all.
Hmm I think translating that faithfully will need a bit more context. But usually you can just say ตอนที่อยู่ในเมืองจะไปตัดผมด้วย translating to ‘whilst in town (will) go cut hair also’. The ‘จะ / will’ is a universal word that can be added to other verbs to signify ‘future in due course’.
Just did a very similar road trip with a similar experience. Saw several Caddo plates around Craters of the Moon and an overland vehicle with plates from Brazil. Never did spot a District of Columbia one though and it appears there are no "standard" plates for DC?
What's the easiest way to play these songs? Short of downloading each individual track, is there an easy means to play/stream these songs? Does VLC or equivalent play these easily? Hoping to just give it an artist or album root path and it just picks up the songs in order to play from there.
Someone certainly will be paying for it. I've lived in two locations where the utilities invested in nuclear and ratepayers get to pay for the difference between the cost of the energy and what they can sell it for. In Pittsburgh, we at least received some of the overpriced power we subsidized. In Atlanta, the nuclear plant is selling power to a different market, but we pay for it nonetheless.
Look into “solution engineer”, sometimes called “sales engineer” or “pre-sales engineer”. They are often paired with a sales expert as their technical partner. There are often 1 solution engineer to 2-4 sales experts.

Solution engineers are often engineer / developers who are good at communicating, explaining, asking questions. Activities often involve “technical proof-of-concepts” (commonly called POCs), running trials and “bake offs” (for example comparing between competitors). SEs often work closely with product engineering - communicating customer requirements, figuring out how to integrate with a clients’s particular setup, hosting workshops & webinars, going to a clients HQ and whiteboarding solutions. Often 25% travel (1-2 days on site with local customers, and travel once a month by flight to spend time with a customer for workshop.) You are expected to keep your tech skills sharp. Some progressions of this role are called “Field CTO”. This person is often a domain
+ technology expert (eg eCommerce + cloud microservices).

One financial benefit of a SE role is that - being on the sales org of the company, you are on the revenue generating side - not a cost center. Quality of life in the company can be nice because of that. Your compensation will often have a variable “bonus” to it - tied to the performance of the sales team (eg 25%+ of your total compensation).

If you know a piece of software, tool, or general domain, and you’re personally a big fan of them and use their software, that might be a good company to talk to about SE positions. Sometimes they might have a “developer advocate” role - which is someone who is also very plugged into the company’s customer / developers community.

If you’re interested in getting an SE job, one easy “cheat code” would be recording yourself doing “how to” on that company’s software, post to a youtube, and sharing it where customers are - might even be a subreddit you’re already in.

I saw a video where someone scanned thru months of a niche subreddit, found most common problems, and then made videos on how to solve those. Another idea is to use a tool like AnswerThePublic.com to find top questions related to a topic you know well (its based on search trends) - pick questions that are easy for you to answer, be prepared to see how crappy and annoying most videos are to solve that… then make your own video. Don’t want to get much into video on this thread, but Google Slides + OBS / simple 5 min how-to screenshare with decent audio would be better than 95% of the videos out there.

I’ve done this for awhile and happy to answer questions/ help out - worked at large cloud SaaS companies, and my clients are large well-known “Fortune 500” companies.

My career has bounced around from developer / architect / project manager / professional services (consultant) / customer success (technical account manager) / engineering product manager/ entrepreneur/ solution engineer and “fractional CTO” for startups.
I always assumed they could be used by the dealer to "mark" a car that was delinquent on its lease/finance payments.
Personally I think it's both - they execute incredibly well given their scale AND they abuse their market power.

4 hours is A LOT of screen time
That is completely irrelevant to the discussion. The point is that both systems have very stable ABIs. Windows has a somewhat higher-level stable ABI, but as a result it is a much wider surface to keep compatible, it breaks much more often, it requires a lot more hacks to keep it stable over time (program-specific hacks kept around for decades), etc.

This is the point of difference: the layer at which each is stable. NOT whether Linux is stable.
