This is a bad take, because the parents are already obviously wealthy. The money will mean nothing to them. They want to force companies like Rad to change, and nothing forces that besides government force (Lol, at this point) or money.

In this case, they want them to not spec bikes with flimsy components like the pathetic brakes described by a half-dozen people in that article as needing constant adjustment, with the consequences of forgetting to do it every couple weeks that you might die. I certainly won't buy an e-bike with those kind of brakes myself now, and the fact that no sane person who knows the risk would, really does suggest that perhaps selling such a bike now that we've seen the risks, is very irresponsible. I hope they get a huge settlement or judgment that makes all e-bike makers reconsider the position on the spectrum of cheap vs. safe that they have chosen.
Like I said that's true for single rider that's fit - but what about having a passenger on, or being driven by kid/older person ?

Ebikes seem like bikes but they let you go way faster than you would with a bio bike - I don't think it's responsible treating them as such and using child seats or allowing anyone to ride them without training/helmets.

Haven't read the paper, but I imagine it proposes using the GPS and microphones in human-operated vehicles to produce an F-words per minute heatmap, then tell the self-driving cars to either avoid the hotspots completely or drive through them slower.
So it likes transition into a business roles or try to be CEO.

My question, is there no way to be eternally stuck as "senior/staff engineer". I do not want anything beyond that. The salary of an average senior/staff engineer is always greater than median salary of the country.

That should solve all the living expenses.
Mullvad lets you pay with monero- or cash in an envelope.
Interesting, I wouldn't place gal as derisive, just a word that has fallen out of common use. I used to work as a server and we'd talk about stuff like this.

Wonder if there is a regional aspect to it, or perhaps it being an older and less used word has lead to more individual variance in connotations?
My theory is that one needs a good reason to cross the ocean. Life has to be better on the other side. It is a selection process. You get people who's hands and feet tend to follow their thoughts as opposed to writing them down.

What protocols are used to stream updates to client? Or it’s simulation on client and state dump on fails?
Agreed. its like if only 2 people uses tor then even though its encrypted and anon, you still know who used tor and can identity those 2 people. Now if a large majority uses tor, then anonymity becomes easier.

this is how they caught some guy at harvard that called in a bomb threat via tor. even those he used it, he was the only one in the dorms who used tor so it was traced back to him.
I think there should be an innate quality about someone in software that they enjoy the work. If it didn’t pay well I’d still be doing this, I love working with computers and started before google came about. If people are in it for the money and don’t enjoy the work they will likely not do well, not excel at anything, not be curious about learning and just plod along to get by. As much as you don’t need a degree to do software its not a skilled trade like an electrician where the job details are very structured around proven solutions.

All that being said, I think someone is better off looking at organization styles and culture than job titles for a comfortable, earn your keep, engineering job.
The comments on Youtube proof that either:

1) Tesla is only good at creating SPAMbots
2) Google owns lots of Tesla stocks
3) Humanity is completely braindead

or all of the above. lmao. :'O

The Video is CLEARLY fake AND Tesla having such huge amounts of money doing such a bad job at CGI makes me really wonder how stupid people have become. Lots of glitches, no need to be an expert to see that.
If I recommended something to you but didn't believe it was actually worth recommending, is that immoral? Well I basically lied to you...

Yes, marketing is immoral.
Unlicensed Windows also doesn’t let you turn on dark mode which is irritating with how blindingly bright modern light mode UI designs have been ever since “flat and square” became the dominant UI design in Windows 8. I wish the more middle-colored light mode designs of the past would return.

Bollocks - that was done.

In the US the American Engineers Society(?) proposed necessary and required changes to infrastructure alongside required maintainance of existing infrastructure for almost two decades (possibly longer).

Nothing was done about any of that until recently .. and the amount committed was still under the total recommended for upkeep alone.

Apple II as well. When displaying text, bit 7 determined if the text was flashing (0) or normal (1). (There was also inverse with bit 7 and bit 6 clear). Since bit 7 had to be set to display normally, some text editors saved their ASCII text files with bit 7 set.
and yet you describe in-clinic work as "busywork". Pre/post op is super important, actually having to deal with human beings... this actually sounds a lot like software developers who could use a little more practice with the non-coding aspects of their jobs.
Waymo just published a paper yesterday titled MotionLM [1], where they’re representing motion prediction as a language modeling task.

I’m curious to see how much traction LLM-like techniques get in safety critical environments like autonomous driving. I don’t know if Waymo has already deployed it, but they’re in the best position to evaluate it.

Time in the market is the dumbest thing ever propagated on society by the media. Seriously it's so easy to buy low and sell high if you pay the people who watch markets. I find the issue with knowledge workers is er overestimate our skill and don't realize how dumb we really are. For example I helped Tesla and should have sold last year but didn't listen to to the guy I'm paying $1500/month yet if I did I could have bought in January and sell again today. Next time I'll be better prepared.

Same with gold, buy low and sell high.
Honest question: why?

You’re not wrong and the trend is toward more of these torrential-to-flood events. The story is simple: the infrastructure we have doesn’t handle multiple inches of rain in a very short period of time.
Just configure your endpoints to point at an ad blocking DoH server.
blocking for a few days is not rate limiting. if i am talking to a customer on facebook and i get blocked for a few days this could cause me to loose a job. (and no, sometimes i can't choose how to communicate with customers. if they insist on facebook then that's where i need to be). same for my grandparents. they may be upset if i can't talk to them and i can't reach them in other ways. the problem is that most people are not aware of this risk and it will catch them off guard which has the potential to hurt more than it would otherwise. the risk of this makes facebook an unviable option for me to communicate in the first place.

I guess when I wear sunglasses, or my CPAP, or am simply not in a position to look directly at the screen dead-on (such as when driving in the car when it's on its mount, or when I'm packing groceries and need to pay), or when I just don't want to look like a goofball staring dead-on at my phone screen, TouchID worked 100% of the time and was minimally inconvenient.

If I went kayaking every day, or just generally had wet hands a lot of the time, I could see how that could get annoying (although hand towels exist...). I wear my CPAP every night though, and didn't always feel like taking it off just to unlock my phone.

FYI, when Apple made FaceID tolerate face masks during the pandemic (probably for the same reasons it was annoying with a CPAP), they actually made it less secure (because there is no circumstance under which giving less information but expecting the same level of security will hold)
I learned about punch cards, when I discovered my high school in Scotland, in the 1980's, had card readers that were lying on a shelf unused for years.

It was the Physics teacher who ran a computer club I'd joined in the school.

We got to use those old HP "calculators" which were big bulky machines which had a display consisting of a single line of I think, 80 character LEDs, ran a form of BASIC, had a built in cassette tape reader (and writer) to load or store programs.

The card reader attached to these clunky big things. I asked the physics teacher why they weren't used - I remember him saying it was because they weren't working. My 13 year old mind kind of fixated on them; the cards were in the same format as punched cards, except you marked them by drawing a single diagonal line across one of the rectangles which represented an ASCII character; each card had an array of such characters and you wrote a complete BASIC program by correctly marking each card. It took many such cards to write a program.

Long story short, I got the card readers working again. The physics teacher just nodded his head - he was one of the old-skool kinda guys with a beard, who showed they were impressed, by displaying such stoic reactions. It was at that point that I learned about punched cards; basically the same principle but using punched holes rather than marking the individual rectangles.

As I was born in 1969, I feel I had the priviledge of growing up during the various eras the article speaks of; by the time I attended high school I was growing up with Sinclair ZX81s (My first home computer), VIC-20s, C= 64s, Amiga 500s (My first Amiga). Amiga 1200s. My first PC was some 386 thingy I bought from a pal. This article reminds me of a lot of common knowledge I'd completely forgotten over the ensuing decades - such nostalgia!
Be easier to do that with facial recognition watching the office CCTV feeds, tbh, far less visible to the workers too.
Helmets don't do shit in a lot of cases when you get hit by an automobile - especially some lifted truck that is going to smash you square in the chest - which is why infrastructure is far more important than helmet wearing. Cyclists wear helmets in the US much more than in the Netherlands - and die at far higher rates because we have bad cycling infrastructure.

https://usa.streetsblog.org/2016/06/02/why-helmets-arent-the...

It's not a bad idea to wear one in any case in my opinion, but it really is about the infrastructure. Here's the same author of the piece being discussed explaining why he doesn't wear a helmet much:

As horrible as it is to imagine losing a child, what I can't imagine is ever suing private individuals, neighbors, over what is clearly an accident. The other girl was only superficially harmed from the crash, so it's likely their daughter's death was one of those freak cases: hit her head just right even though she had a helmet on.

Most active kids probably engage in activities that have a non-zero chance of death or serious injury on a regular basis. 99.999% of the time, if injuries result, they are minor, but there's always going to be a few instances where the outcome is horrific.

Society is worse because of the lawsuit (and fear of lawsuit) culture this type of behavior results in.

Gameplay wise: Great, I'm looking forward to it. I think they've come to just the right level of flexibility to not make people just automatically make everything elevated without having to just make it tediously expensive.

Graphics wise, I think it's mostly working, but, and it feels bad to say this with the 9 months they've apparently spent on it, I think some of the sprites are not clearly elevated enough? Like the X crossing in the second has my brain really want to see it as ground level rails, and similiarly there's a second about two thirds across and one third down on the final image which doesn't read as elevated to me.

I think in the X at least they've had to make some balance between visual noise and how supported it looks, since the support rails terminate early rather than joining each other at angles, so I'm sure it's not easy to do.

Okay! This makes sense. Culture is important!

However, I kindly request you to not conclude that wanting to be average doesn't mean not having interest in the field. It's the contrary. I am so invested, I know what mind blogging things people can do. And I also know I will never be able to reach where these people are.

This quote supports my position.

Digital goods are treated differently by the act to other goods(hence them being mentioned specifically in this section).

Purchasing non-digital goods online provides a greater right to return them even if they are not faulty. Digital goods, as your quoted section points out, can be returned if they are not of (objectively) satisfactory quality.

The two week mandatory, no-fuss return you mentioned originally only applies to non-digital goods/services bought remotely.
Citation for these sane and gradual changes?

Were they thought out or just political signals? In the US, unfortunately the overwhelming majority of climate change propositions are ill-thought political rhetoric, which sets back actual progress.

Look at recent changes. CA banned single-use plastic bags because someone said incorrectly they contributed to that huge floating plastic island in the pacific. Turns out, that floating plastic island is made up of fishing equipment - and our replacement for the plastic bags use vastly more resources to create so the net effect has been negative.

We need real proposals - not feel-good proposals.

This misfeature can't be removed from browsers soon enough. Its existence is totally contrary to DoH's threat model, since the people DoH is designed to protect you from are exactly the ones who can manipulate insecure DNS results for that domain.
"Is it different than prior mis/disinformation or than addictive media like computer games?"

Substantially so. Nothing prior became indistinguishable from reality. Yes, illusions have existed in some form, but they were still discernable with effort and good illusions had significant production cost.

This massively scales up that capability, not in just production, but in the parameters of influence as well. It will be capable of understanding, predicting and influencing behavior far more precisely and deliberately. All the data exists for this and will be analyzed for such effect.

Whether it’s climate change or not misses the point.

People only pay attention when they can draw a bright line to a cause. Climate change is that cause. But the climate and impacts of all kinds related to it (all very complicated) have been studied and socialized for quite some time.

So - I’m not sure the approach is wrong. Frankly, I don’t know what’s right. If you think their position hurts them, what do you suggest they or we do instead? Honest question.

Hell, some documents are so protected even the labeling is protected information.

I'm not disagreeing with that - I'm saying that even with that I still don't think it's responsible to ride around with a kid in a child seat on an ebike. Not judging you for your choice - if you're a responsible and experienced driver I'm sure the risks are way lower.

But it's not something I'd do, or support as a public policy.
It depends. I spend all my time in shells so it’s easier to run screen.

Others spend more time and have more comfort with the GUI and they might choose PuTTY.

I do use PuTTY frequently, for oddball serial connections and when I want reliable logging with no fuss.
If you own all of the endpoints, then it is indeed morally okay for you to do network-level filtering. The problem is that if we design network protocols so it's possible for you to do that, then it will also be possible for people to do network-level filtering that affects endpoints they don't own.
GANeRF: Leveraging Discriminators to Optimize Neural Radiance Fields
I do have personal experience, at least in following the advice of that blog post. After reading it, I bought the Dell S2722DZ which is 27" 2560x1440 for 108PPI. It's a decent monitor and I haven't had any issues with scaling, i.e. the "native resolution" of the monitor works with the output of the OS and there's no need to waste CPU/RAM on scaling the pixels. The text isn't as crisp as on a Retina, but it's way better than the previous cheapo monitor I had.

Not sure my opinion counts for much though, since I didn't try any monitor in "the red zone" and thus have nothing to compare it to.

This Dell model does have a 1px column of dead (?) pixels that appears sometimes, but if I squeeze it then it goes away. I think it's due to some loose wire in the paneling... but it's not too big of a deal, and regardless, it's unrelated to PPI or scaling or whatever.
i wonder if the within-three-rings push dates to when there were actual operators connecting calls. their employer would not want them to be spending a lot of time waiting.
