The problem is that people can vote multiple times in the same election currently if an ID isn't checked. If you are required to prove your identity before you vote, you can ensure that every voter only gets one vote.

>I deeply believe everyone is virtuous, as they personally define it. For the most part, I believe the world’s virtues are common. We all want peace, joy, safety, and comfort. We all want to smile.

Well I don't. And this belief isn't any more valid or invalid than mine, or anyone else's. Regardless of the flimsy definition of virtuousness, there are people out there who are hellbent on causing harm, and some are petty killers who are caught easily for tormenting and murdering their own little children, while others are in positions of serious power and leverage over nations who start wars and worse. Are there good people? Yes. Is everyone after peace, joy, safety and comfort? No Master Wayne, some people just want to watch the world burn.

The people in charge of Social Media aren't good people.
Trains aren't a panacea for transportation. They work well in some areas, less well in others, and not at all in many.

You still have to get to and from the stations themselves, and the dependability of transportation arriving on time and proximity to your destination plays a big factor.

The metro area I went to college in had a light rail train that ran from downtown to a popular tourist destination. To get there, though, you needed to catch a connecting bus ride.

It is a 15 minute trip by car, but an hour by bus+train. If the bus ran late, it would actually be faster to ride a bicycle all 13 miles.

The metro area cities want to add more trains because it is the progressive thing to do, but ridership on one of the lines is abysmal, and the other lines aren't utilized as much as they could be because people feel unsafe on them and are disgusting- smoking cigarettes, drinking hard alcohol, food all over the floor, loud music, the occasional gang posturing or aggressive pan handling were all cited by locals in a survey as to why they chose to drive instead.
you're right, I totally missed that detail, i didn't realise it was from 20 years ago.

That is totally bizarre.
Driverless cars have never been even remotely as unsafe as early commercial passenger aviation.
But we absolutely don't keep making cars, or trucks, safer for pedestrians: We are actively putting people in vehicles with worse visibility, because said human drivers feel safer when they are driving in a larger, taller heavier vehicle that is more dangerous to others.

The argument is not that self-driving cars are very safe, but that we tolerate risks that are quite large when it comes to humans doing the driving. Risks so high that it might not take all that much for entire categories of drivers to be less safe than a computer.

If we need 50+ years of certainty for self driving cars, we will never have said certainty, because we'd not let them drive, ever. And yet, we have very old people, those that are easily distracted, and people who often drive impaired in the road all the time. We also put them very close to places where we have pedestrians, and let them drive with huge differentials over said pedestrians.

We aren't really making the cars safe enough as it is, and in the US we lack any practical roadmaps to make them safer, other than, 'never walk, and drive in an increasingly bigger car'. We are YOLOing every day, with large, single passenger trucks that will strike a pedestrian at chest height.

So yes, self driving research is a better way out than hoping to change human drivers, whose hardware and software are hard to upgrade. I won't necessarily assume a Waymo car is better than most drivers today, but I'd already trust it more than some that have licenses today.
America literally has an exception for slavery.
> It is pretty indisputably unethical as it breaks the social contract of the service delivery.

I would dispute that there is such a social contract, any more than there is a social contract that if you download a patch to fix DRM, you are implicitly agreeing to install the virus it comes with.

Ad-funded businesses are engaging in market dumping, subsidizing their offerings by poisoning the minds of billions of people, and creating anxiety, insecurity, and dissatisfaction in the process. If someone gives you something for free covered in lead dust, and you accept it but clean the dust off first before touching it, I don't see the ethical quandary. Particularly when you know their widget cost them a fraction of a penny, and they were being paid to give you the poison.

Like Bill Hicks said, these people are Satan's little helpers. Engaging with Satan and undermining him may be unwise, but it's not unethical.

As others have pointed out, these people also have a level of stalking going on that I don't think the average person (or even a relatively informed person) can grasp, and so there's no possibility for a social contract to exist there.
Upvoting this because this is where I end up. Nobody proposing solar, wind and storage ever wants to back it up with hard numbers. They back it up with soft numbers - lies of omission.

"Look how expensive nuclear is compared to solar!" they say, ignoring capacity factors, reliability or storage. "Look how many gigawatts of batteries were installed last year" while ignoring that the energy-storage of those batteries is maybe 3 hours and the total power of batteries scales alongside energy.

"We'll just overbuild" they say, ignoring that the 4x the solar is now within a stone's throw of being the same capex as equivalent nuclear, but still needs storage.

Everyone has some just-so narrative which omits numbers. Because you can make green hydrogen they assume it must be cost-effective to do so. Because someone said "solar is cheap" they assume it must be too cheap to meter. As though you can wave away multiple 50% energy loss steps as insignificant.

I'm open to being convinced I'm wrong, but show me the numbers which prove it. Show me that you're talking about a today technology, not "by 2028 it's expected costs will reduce..." while saying nuclear will "take too long to build". Don't tell me power-to-methane exists, show me the numbers saying it works and include the costs of storing it (stored methane is superb on energy density for the grid, but about 30% efficient panels-to-power plant and has a cost per kWh in storage...and has a suspicious paucity of information surrounding operating costs of plants versus "future projections").
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_traffic-r...

The US is #5 (of 26 countries for which the statistic is available) in fatalities / km. That's only "awfully damn good to me" if your goal is to kill more people.
People don’t block ads because they want to deprive websites of income. They block ads because they have been driven to it, by the ads themselves.

This could be avoided if websites served ads responsibly: no JS, no animations, no video, no audio, no tracking, no scam merchants, no tricks, no manipulation, no unskippable ads, no dishonesty.

Almost no websites do this, so I have no ethical qualms giving of the ads the banhammer.

Once websites start respecting their users, then we can have this conversation about ethics, but not a second before.
Except the return of the 0.1 percenters was very close to the return of the broad market. Their conclusion doesn’t track with this fact.
Electricity peaked in August 2022, and has returned pretty much back to pre-war levels. You might be paying 3x more, but your electricity provider definitely is not.

Besides, the claim I responded to was that the decline of nuclear in France led to a dependency on Russia for gas. The fact that Europe rapidly switched to LNG shows that this is not true, regardless of your opinion about anything else. Nobody is pretending that LNG is green, and biomass is heavily criticized for exactly that reason.
Yes, of course, I meant without AI.
"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime"

Mince words all you want, the constitution doesn't and makes it very clear that there is an exception for slavery. Of course we could simply pay people for work, as is our custom, and end this depressing argument once and for all.
I believe my reported numbers include pedestrian fatalities. I would love to have better sources that made that clearer, as these are markes as "traffic fatalities"
Mark Twain tried, but failed. As you probably know, he said he'd rather decline two drinks than one German adjective.
Cars are dramatically safer for passengers than they used to be. Miles per death isn’t reflective of the skill/attentiveness levels of drivers.

As the sibling comment points out, miles driven per death for pedestrians isn’t necessarily being improved by the mass and visibility and safety factors.
sounds like a case for a discrimination lawsuit
As another programmer, and one with decades of experience building software running critical infrastructure, I have a very different view.

You seem to be expecting perfection, or a reasonable facsimile of it, but that's not the bar that's being set by the existing solution (people).

Using your example of even a pedestrian task such as buying airline tickets, humans generally have a worse error rate than a computer doing it.

Source: I live in the Philippines where manual handling is still de rigeur for everything from buying ferry tickets, to immigration paperwork, to car registration and driving licenses. The error rate is far, far higher than the automated systems that do these things in other countries.

Similarly, humans (in aggregate) are really not very good at driving cars safely. Software on the other hand, is only getting better at it as time goes on. It's perhaps debatable whether computers are currently better (again, in aggregate) than humans, but with the current state of the art my view is that they are.

I'd welcome these things with open arms in the Philippines compared to the average driver on the road. Or equally so in my home country of Australia, or the US, or anywhere where humans kill each other every day in fast-moving steel cages.

Interesting that you introduce to me a new category to my system of classifying "screen time". Previously I had learning, creating, and consuming categories, with only the consuming category really being restricted. But now I see that "recommendation engine" should be a category in itself, distinct from consuming, and outright banned.
The Big Three hire people midcareer from other companies, including from the tech world
15 years ago I worked on robot tanks for the US Army, I currently am in machine learning and I live in Phoenix, so I was very interested in this and have taken several rides on Waymo (never been in a Cruise). The Waymo felt very safe- and is definitely trying to convince you of that fact. Most seats have a screen that shows the cars current situational awareness of all obstacles around it- you can even see pedestrians, parked cars, etc., and when you come up to a stop light it will display a little icon with the correct light so you know that it is reading the red/yellow/green correctly. It plans routes such that it rarely takes an unprotected left turn (though the current generation of vehicles seem to be more willing to do that- on the old Pacifica minivans I don't think I ever had one do that, the iJag's have done it occasionally though not often). They are clearly thinking about trying to make it feel safer, and convince riders of that safety.

Now, I will note that the Phoenix area is by far the easiest driving I have ever encountered in 25 years of having a license. Wide roads, little traffic, few pedestrians (I moved here from NYC!), little weather, and I don't see them out as much at night. They crucially also completely avoid the most unpredictable driving in the area, for example Sky Harbor Airport, and near construction sites (there is construction in our kids school parking lot, and the Waymo won't go in- they will only drop us off next door and make us walk). But this too builds my confidence in the system- the people who are operating it seem to understand that it has limitations, which suggests to me that they are wearing their engineers hats and not management or, God forbid, salesmen hats. Is it perfect, I'm certain not. But I definitely prefer it to Uber or anything like that- no tip, no worry about the driver doing something concerning, just gets me where I want to go.
Not sure, the qsort is recursive and stack limitations were mentioned. But the point being that the reason they don't use their library functions because it's a constrained environment.

Maybe they could permit some of their sort library functions to be used in such a constrained environment, sure. Don't need rust to do that, just need to be happy that the implementation is suitable for purpose. Which they would have to do regardless of what language and runtime they were using.

Because many people are either in denial or overly anxious about it. Looking into a mirror isn't going to give you an objective judgement.
What does our relative position amongst a group of countries matter to my argument? The best countries see 150M miles between traffic fatalities. If we roll out self-driving cars and they continue to work as well as they have so far, the US numbers will get better.
The problem is not deaths per megawatt. Nor bias.

Look at the economic disaster that is Vogtie.

People need to be reasonable. If we want nuclear, the government will need to pay for it. Right now everyone's waiting for energy investors and the financial engineering that backs them to throw money into nuclear. It won't happen. We want rich people to throw their billions at nuclear for a return years and years from now, instead of spending it just slapping up some windmills and getting a return next month.

T Boone Pickens was one of the most conservative energy investors that ever lived, and he was slapping up windmills left and right. That won't stop until the tax payer agrees to insulate investors from any losses.

Everyone's saying, "We want nuclear." But when we give them the financial consequences of nuclear like we did at Vogtie, they get pissed. You can't have it both ways. You want it? Cool. Don't complain about being told you have to pay off your region's reactors.

A little more cooperation from everyone on the finances would go a long way here.

Of course it’s obligatory in such an article to mention the ongoing controversies surrounding self-driving cars. They’re relevant context. But if anything, that paragraph makes Waymo look good, given that it comes after a paragraph listing a series of more-significant incidents involving Cruise, and explicitly says Waymo has had “fewer troubles”.
Actually, parallel is a drop in for xargs as xargs has been around longer. Parallel has a few big improvements:

* Grouped output (prevents one process from writing output in the middle of another's output)
* In-order output (task a output first, task b output second even though they ran in parallel)
* Better handling of special characters
* Remote execution

I haven't paid a lot of attention to the debate, so I can't give you a citation. But there have been many claims over the years (some of them by real linguists) that language property X is correlated with physical/ social/ ethnic property Y. This "grandiose idea" that you're referring to was one of those, and not one made up by the authors of this paper.
There's absolutely no reason you can't put it into Yucca mountain other than anti-nuclear 'nimbys' (in quotes because Yucca is nobody's backyard) -- but worst of all, it's an asinine point. Yucca Mountain is directly adjacent to the Nevada Test Site where the US has detonated 928 nuclear weapons, most of them underground. [1]

The Nevada Test Site is the most radiologically contaminated land on the face of the earth already. Honestly if any spent fuel leaked out it might reduce the average radioactivity at the NTS.

Right, we have 50+ years where motor vehicle involved deaths are like 15-20% of all deaths for people under 50, not to mention how many more people are permanently injured due to motorists.

The status quo is really bad and we are doing a terrible job of making them safer for anyone besides the occupants of the vehicle causing a collision. So yeah, we should really focus on pushing technology that can reduce the danger of distractable drivers. That mostly should mean investing in public transit, walkability and speed-limited small vehicles like bikes or golf carts. But the bar for driverless cars is basically: do they speed? Do they drive on sidewalks? Do they kill a few people a day? No? Then they’re better than the status quo, because the status quo is awful.
More and better trains are great... when they are connecting very dense areas that have a lot of traffic. Madrid's subway is great, and so is rail to nearby towns, and high speed rail to Seville, Valencia and the like. But the value of rail drops precipitously as density decreases.

In the US, we are basically allergic to the density required to make trains good. I look at, say, St Louis to KC: a route of ideal length for high speed rail. But on both sides of the train, the density just isn't there, so people would drive themselves to the station, and rent a car on the other side, and suddenly you might as well have driven yourself across.

But sure, rebuild dense enough as to make subways, trains and walking the best modes of transportation, and the world would be pretty nice. it'll just cost, say, a few trillion to rebuild US cities that way. And the people that live far from the city center, and whose land values would probably drop massively wouldn't be all that happy.

From very very early in their lives I taught my children what advertisements are and why they should avoid them. My youngest one shields her eyes when an advertisement comes on. She knows what a paid promotion is on YouTube and will completely skip that show. She knows that advertisements are forced on her to get certain prizes in her game so she will play the ad then put the iPad down or completely walk away as it plays. We don’t have cable television and I pay premium for most services to avoid ads.

I’m hoping they become hyper aware of advertisements as they grow older because they are going to continue being embedded in everything

I don’t think screen time is beneficial, but it really depends on level of selection, supervision and coordination when it comes to whether it’s harmful IMHO.

I’ve seen my toddler completely zone out on a show and on the same day, transfer both scientific and socio-emotional concepts from the show to the real world. It really is mind-blowing as a parent.

Now being more aware (and having an M.Ed) I can easily design everyday learning activities based on the handful of shows I’ve (since) vetted.

At the same time, I have great empathy for parents who don’t have the privilege of being present due to work, multiple kids mental health, or otherwise. And I don’t want to judge those parents, understanding that I could be in a similar position with a few different outcomes.
