From my exp autonomous driving seems entirely plausible within large cities at slower speeds that don't instantly kill you or others, and outside that just as good a lane assist + cruise control as you can get– the rest is branding FSD and walking back a claim or two around it. It all seems very malleable.
> When civil engineers make mistakes like this there is a postmortem and we learn what the mistake was and how not to do it again.

We do that in software too. It’s called an agile retrospective. Somehow it leads to more of the same crap.

And thats because management usually doesnt allow for proper engineering. They call that getting lost in the details.

So then we end up with things failing miserably again and again. But agile books get sold, mckinsey and other bastardisation factories generate profits, and so on.
"Senior YouTube staffers are reportedly worried that its TikTok competitor, Shorts, may eat away at its long-form content,"

They are different forms of content, just on the same platform. Seems like a a non-sensical article for the click of driving engagement on The Verge - and I guess it worked.

Also, the Verge is just poorly summarizing a Financial Times article...in other words, The Verge is providing 'short-form content' of ft.com, except, ft.com isn't getting the ad revenue (not the same publisher, afaik).

And for FT...their article does not cite a single person from YouTube. Just "a staffer in a meeting said..."...according to "YouTube staff".

I honestly expected better....from both.

Says responsible developers. Good software doesn't need to phone home or report to the dev that they clicked widget X instead of Y.

Telemetry is what happens when lazy or complacent devs move forward in their software but decide to be 'data driven'.

What's wrong with accusing someone of having the ability to spy of maybe spying? The point with technology and humans is, if the ability is there, it's not 'if' it will be abused; it's when.

Software that doesn't phone home or have telemetry never has to worry about that moral hazard. User data doesn't belong to developers, and that includes behavioral data.

Another great advantage is being able to fire bad clients.

Related is the ability to pick and choose your clients in the sales process. e.g. plenty of small consultancies have formal or informal policies not to bid for government work because of the effort and frustration involved in responding to public sector RFPs.

I think the authors confuses stories and /grand stories/ (sometimes called "meta-narratives").

I don't see how it is possible to do history without stories. That literally is what history is, telling stories about the past. Yes, the stories should have a factual basis, and some don't, but that's not a problem with stories as such.

The problem lies with the desire for all stories to fit a /grand story/. Such a grand story is comforting, perhaps even pleasurable, when it gives a feeling of omniscience, of everything falling in place. But it is seldom helpful as a tool for prediction and problem-solving.

But what is helpful is small stories. The world is messy and contradictory, everywhere and all the time. Without simplified stories we can't make proper sense of it (it is far too complex for individual humans to 'understand').
It's an opinionated blog post published on Arxiv, masquerading as research.

IMHO, it's a gigantic self-own and doesn’t promote Lucene in a good way. For example, by demonstrating how they get only 10 QPS out of a system with 1TB of memory and 96 v-cpu's (after 4 warmups).

The HNSW implementation in Lucene is fair, and within the same order of magnitude as others. But, to get comparable performance, you must merge all immutable segments to a single segment, which all Lucene oriented benchmark does, but which is not that realistic for many production workloads where docs are updated/added in near real-time.
>this food is on the menu for reasons other than its flavor.

Sure and this is ok. The same with the salad, right? And the mineral water on the drinks list.

Like you, I support the genuinely necessary efforts for providing good access to alternatives to animal protein.

Edit :

I think the replies are misunderstanding. I'm saying, the vegan food is not for you. It's for vegans, like the salad is for those eating light. Like the mineral water is for those who don't want an alcoholic drink. Why do you care how it tastes? Please, can we keep it on the menu.

I've been 3 decades advocating and celebrating more diversity in menus and it would be devastating to see losses from what has been achieved.

The Spring drive is majestic, and generally wonderful. Get one if you can, they make smashing dress watches. The tool watch side is a bit lacking for my taste (either too thick, or have massive pushers for the chronograph.)

However If you like "funky" movements, then I urge you all to check out this website here: https://electric-watches.co.uk/movement-types/ (look at the drop down under movement types)

There are watches you can buy for less than $300 that are controlled by a tuning fork. A no fooling humming tuning fork. Not only that, they are pretty accurate and easy to look after even by modern standards. They have wheels that have teeth that are 0.037mm apart. Your hair is 0.060mm wide.

Then there are battery powered watches with moving balances. Then there are both styles with quartz regulators as well.

Now if you want something a bit more modern, and less electric, there are silicon balances https://frederiqueconstant.com/monolithic/ which are pretty wild.

It's funny because this is the opposite of my experience. The vegan dishes tend to be spiced better and come with a better variety of vegetables/flavours.

I always thought people who “prepaid” for FSB were kind of silly. So I don’t have much sympathy for rich people who drop such money on things that don’t exist yet.

It seems 360k people have bought this since it went on sale in 2016[0]. 7 years is a long time to wait.

I imagine people will end up end of lifing their cars before FSD actually comes out.

It’s odd though as I have a friend who didn’t buy the total one but prepaid for some things and they say they are pretty happy with what it can do now- adaptive cruise control and lane changes. So that seems similar to Subaru and Toyota and everyone else’s adaptive cruise control. And I think those folks charge a few grand too.

It also doesn’t address the fact that vegetarians and vegans will spend more time making sure they don’t accidentally eat something that doesn’t fit with their dietary choice, but that trawling through every ingredient for every menu item is a huge faff that’s avoided by simply labelling vegetarians and vegan items clearly.

It feels like the argument of “removing labelling will result in more consumers choosing vegetarian and vegan options” relies on, ultimately, tricking the consumer. That can’t be a good proposition to start from.

And after you've read it, all the anecdotal evidence will heavily lean towards my OBVIOUS concise assessment; but, this is HN.

Scrape the reports, run it thru your favorite LLVM sentiement holistic, make an objective word-map, then tell me, on average, that I am not accurate in my obviously condensed assessment.

LSD has, almost universally, an uncomfortable come-up, and a "burning" cleansing feeling.

Mushrooms, objectively, make your stomach hurt, have body load, and can a much larger variance in dosage due to the nature of its procurement.

4acoDMT is better, xan+LSD microdosing is safe, and DMT is, without a doubt, the safest, most intense, life-changing, one-shot attempt of a awakening, any mortal, experienced or not, will ever have the opportunity to exerience.

The list of drugs that exist that I haven't witnessed first hand is smaller than those you could name.

Ayahuasca, while we are this note, however, is NOT something middle-aged suburbanites should dip their toes in.

That is the equivalent of a DMT trip with the length of heavy LSD trip.

THAT is the media and common conceptions yall should whitenight about.

Whatever the choice, it has to be deliberate. So many are people pleasers in disguise. They grow not because they actively choose, but because they can't say no. It causes that desperately stressed life when you're not active about these choices and boundaries. They're always in survival mode, chasing more more more, without ever being deliberate and reflective about their actions.

It winds up being the end of a lot of businesses, whether or not they actually did grow. They took on a contract that was just too big for them, despite their intuition telling them not to. Or they hired too many people despite not wanting to but was talked into it by a friend.

So good on you for knowing what you want and being deliberate about it! You and your wife have avoided a lifetime of stress by doing so!
I think this depends entirely on scale and performance metrics. For many smaller use cases using Lucene (or postgres, or elasticsearch or whatever else you already have running in your stack) is perfectly adequate as this paper shows. But as soon as you add a large dataset or high index/search volume you are likely better served with an actual vector datastore. The paper even acknowledges slow indexing performance and a low 9.8 queries per second on decent hardware. Will it perform fine for your couple of hundred pages of internal wiki? Sure. But I think your time is likely better spent learning to deploy and manage a new tech in your stack than figuring out how to work around these significant limitations at scale.
Of course the position is malleable. The ideal end game would be a constrained system. So I mean if you put the cars on rails and gave them a dedicated space to run in, which would solve most of the determinism problems that'd be good. And you could possibly stuck a few of them together to increase overall capacity and efficiency too. We might then have a solution that's possible to execute FSD reliably on.
> They are different forms of content, just on the same platform.

Sure but if someone uploads short trailing / covering something they also cover in a long-form video (and I have seen several creators I follow doing this), there's a non-zero percentage of people who aren't going to bother with the long-form version because they'll have got the gist from the short. That's eating away at the long-form, no?

There’s a ton we can do before we talk about degrowth. Living in dense urban areas vs the suburbs will greatly reduce resource usage.Eating a lot less meat is another thing that’s even easier and will greatly reduce our carbon footprint.

While I’m sympathetic to the idea of degrowth, people will not go along with it. Instead I think we should advocate for living in dense areas, eating a lot less meat, reducing waste, etc.

Everything has been downhill since they let people upload custom thumbnails honestly. That shit should pick a random frame from the video and attempts to game that (like re-uploading 1000 times until it happens to select the portion of the video with the desired thumbnail) should be flaggable. The thumbnails, which used to be indicative of average content of the video, have just become visual clickbait. Oh how I miss the early days of youtube when these were just random frames from the video.

There are basically two groups of vegetarian/vegan food: those dishes that simply happen to not contain any meat (or animal products in case of vegan) and dishes that traditionally do contain meat/animal products, but where it was replaced with something else to make the dish veg(an|etarian).

I have no problem with the former group, those are usually just things that taste great. For the second group, it’s often something where the original tastes great but they ruined it by taking out the meat. I avoid those.

If something is labeled as vegan or vegetarian I’m going to assume it’s in the second group.
