The wikipedia article links to San Clemente Island [0]

I mention because I am constantly amazed at the area of land dedicated to the US Military. San Clemente Island is a 34 km long 147 km2 and shows traces of human activity dating back 10,000 years. Currently it's used as a live firing range and has a small naval installation on it.

Not judging. Just amazed.

Tesla reported that there were 400,000 cars in the US and Canada who had access to FSD Beta in January 2023, so I don’t think that’s at all hard to believe.

Edit: Looks like back in January they were adding 10M cumulative miles driven per month (roughly) - https://insideevs.com/news/633328/tesla-fsd-beta-now-active-...
If what Solzhenitsyn said about the line between good and evil is true, then it’s fully plausible that Judas could be a true believer but still betray Jesus. Same with Peter’s denial.
Reminded me of this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_trinity

The impossible trinity (also known as the impossible trilemma or the Unholy Trinity) is a concept in international economics and international political economy which states that it is impossible to have all three of the following at the same time:

- a fixed foreign exchange rate
- free capital movement (absence of capital controls)
- an independent monetary policy
Good old grampa \NUL\BEL\ACK would be rolling in his gràve if he knew that foreigners with non-ASCII names had taken over his country.
I had a similar experience with Turo. The owner instructed us to leave the car unlocked in some parking lot. The following day they sent pictures of pot on the floor of the car; they charged me an extra $100 and handed me a lifetime ban. I was really enjoying using the app too...

There's another phenomena that I have observed recently where people _want_ to be seen as "mentally ill".
"Data shows that my kid is the best player in the world. He has scored 3x as the top professional player, while playing in my backyard. The data can't lie."

Pretty much.
Have you ever thought about how to manage and extract insights from this data efficiently?
McKinsey & Company highlights businesses adept at harnessing data can potentially boost their operating margins by a substantial 60%. This is precisely where data warehouses and data lakes come into play, offering robust methodologies for storing and analyzing data. Yet, it's essential to recognize these two technologies possess distinct differences.
The question emerges: what are the defining characteristics distinguishing a data lake vs a data warehouse? What considerations weigh in when determining the optimal fit for your enterprise – a data warehouse or a data lake?
Remember that your choice of data infrastructure isn't just about bits and bytes – it's about using the full potential of your organization's most precious resource: data.

Well most people who work in tech and who are technical that I know personally, are, to my surprise, in favour of it. I just asked them after reading comments here. But they, like many, did not inform themselves; they just ‘want more protection for children’.
I hope some of you realize that this is not normal, and not common in all the western world as some of you suggest. There are several countries where the right of any individual is valued much higher than whatever that terror bullshit is. Any EU citizen has more personality rights.

I may be mistaken, but does JSON offer the ability to define a schema with default values? Utilizing a single .proto file, I can tackle both the issues of default values and configuration structure, eliminating the need to manually check for missing mandatory sections.

However, I presume there are now JSON extensions that provide similar functionality?

True. Image generation is a godsend for rapid prototyping. Although with low end I meant a financial sense. Skill is often not enough to be financially successful as an artist, there is luck and opportunity involved. So we could still lose something here.

Also AI is still atrocious to come up with any new concept that wasn't meticulously trained. To me this is still just an algorithm as intelligence would suggest something different. But nonetheless an impressive and mighty tool.
The problem is that "billion" and "trillion" mean different things to different people[0]. In my opinion they should be regarded as unreliable words and never used.

I don't know how passenger gliders are designed, but if they're anything like well-designed RC planes, they'll stall by dropping the nose, cruise with a slight up pitch, and have a tendency to right the wings.

That does make a craft very stable in flight, to the point where some RC craft I've used land themselves (albeit a bit hard) when they lose power.
Agreed. If something like "sealioning" is first order bad faith argumentation, this falsly accusing someone of doing it, hoping observers don't notice the difference, is second order bad faith.
It is never acceptable, under any circumstances, to wholesale slaughter, rape, torture, and desecrate innocent civilians.

> "it uses the `unsafe` keyword, therefore it can't be safe"

> ... would be disingenuous, or at least very ignorant.

That's quite literally what it means - there is a "safe" Rust code that never uses the "unsafe" but the example given by the parent comment is just not the example of that. I am not sure why would my comment come out as ignorant - it's factual state of things.

> it's not because you can't write a provably-safe library with C++

Hm, you really can't? Neither you can with safe or unsafe Rust. None of the compilers for those languages are formally verified.
I believe there’s three LIGO detectors stationed in different parts of the world which greatly helps with the noise reduction.
If FSD drivers were having to constantly intervene because the car couldn’t accurately map obstacles, we’d be hearing a lot more about it. I drive with FSD all the time - I could give you a list of things it needs to improve on, but not a single one has anything to do with its accuracy of understanding its surroundings.
If you distribute any CLI tool you should include the runtime and any attached dependencies, but with dynamic languages that can easily put your distributable in the tens of megabytes in size which is a bit of a pain.

I mean for the longest time the AWS CLI used the python/pip installed in your own machine and it probably caused thousands of man-hours of wasted time.
If “healing” is the ultra wealthy holding on to their money or investing it in financial instruments instead of tech startups then god save us all. I don’t understand the animosity towards VCs that take risks on entrepreneurs like us.

Open source collaborative groups are not going to do shit in this space piddling away in their garages or community workspaces. It takes hundreds of millions of dollars to build a fab that can make competitive chips and beer money donations are not going to get us there.
>One takeaway I had: code reviews matter. If your code is undergoing review and a reviewer tells you that something is not obvious, don’t argue with them; if a reader thinks it’s not obvious, then it’s not obvious.

ok, what about if you have code and you think this is not obvious because edge case for browser X version Y therefore I will leave a long comment specifying why it is the way it is and when and under what conditions in the future it should be removed - but the reviewer thinks it is obvious and please remove the comment.

As a general rule reviewers concerns should be addressed, but I have had some experiences in which what the reviewer wanted made the code worse, or even would possibly introduce hard to find bugs.
> As far as I know, it just traumatizes people and discourages them from eating in front of the people shaming them. Then, as we all do, they relieve the trauma by using their usual coping mechanism - in their case, eating.

But if you materially get fat you will get fat shamed regardless. So while it doesn't make you stop eating garbage, you will somehow, someway figure out how to keep a decent figure. This can either be exercise or more awful methods like surgery.
For me Python is addictive.

You know the tooling is bad and in the long term it will hurt, but the standard library and third party packages are just phenomenally productive and that’s a huge draw.
>That you want to swiftly send him to jail tells me totalitarianism is becoming fashionable again.

Every single human being alive has the capacity to manifest the totalitarian-authoritarian personality. We are not immune to it as individuals - our only safety from this viral meme is social. It is only when we have a social order that provides more motivation to eschew the totalitarian-authoritarian personality, at an individual level, that we are actually free of it. The irony is, this personality also arises when an individuals' own personality is challenged by society.
Thanks. It just seems so far out to me that I have a hard time envisioning why spend time and energy in this.
I think the main factor while it is more difficult than SaaS is that a lot of people want to do it regardless of financial sense. It is a passion project.

It is like one of those jobs that so many people want to do out of passion (fashion, brand advertisement), or identity, that the pay becomes much lower.
You seem to think that this is some sort of battle between the wordcels and the shape rotators or whatever, it's not. Extremely smart people have been in these fields for thousands of years and they didn't think that math and philosophy are opposites or in some tension. Even a cursory familiarity with the history of math and philo will reveal this.
> So the only important difference is that Buffer creates a mutable view at slice(). It could use a better/distinct name for sure, e.g. mutableView(). But do you actually want to always copy a slice that is big enough?

I think you are missing the point. Mutable and copied slices both have their use, and maybe a method that sometimes copies and sometimes shares does too. The problem with Buffer is that it overrides a method with well-defined semantics, then violates those. Buffer is a subclass of UInt8Array, but not a subtype nor Liskov-substitutable.

In practical terms, when you get a UInt8Array and even check that it in fact is a UInt8Array, you no longer know that .slice() does even though UInt8Array's documentation explains how every UInt8Array behaves, because that documentation is now wrong. If the UInt8Array you get is a Buffer, then it is both a buffer and a UInt8Array but its .slice() behaves differently than expected.
That's because it's a hard problem, not because of local government.
The fact that someone always makes this sort of comment when driverless cars come up is really weird to me.

I've never owned a car, use public transit very regularly, and think the state of it in the US is pretty bad and underinvested in. However, that's due to a huge set of systemic factors (political, organizational, spatial, ...) which nobody seems to have made much progress on, and not for lack of trying.

Yeah, it would be great if we all had amazing public transit instead of self-driving cars. But self-driving cars are making big advances, and transit isn't. In ten or twenty years, self-driving cars might be everywhere, and transit will probably be roughly as bad as it is today. That's why people are excited about one and not the other.
I wonder if something for just this scenario exists in the archives of the political comedy Yes [Prime] Minister. It feels like there should be.

Less traffic and no parking is compatible because there are fewer total cars, as Waymos are shared.
You'll learn how to use the Permit2 contract with the Uniswap Universal Router, through its function PERMIT2_PERMIT. The point is to be able to give a Permit allowance to swap/sell ERC-20 tokens.
Just a like the saying "Fish don't know they're in water", people within different groups have cultural assumptions, in this case: The idea of "Permissionless innovation" vs what I like to call the idea of "Permissionful innovation'.

In the permission less school of thought, you don't need permission to use an existing API or data to do whatever you want as long as it isn't abusing the service or illegal.

In a permission full school of thought, you should always ask permission, from the authorities and whoever might have a vested interesting what you are doing.

It seems that in Europe it is far more common that many (most?) people expect you to get permission before you go off writing your random programs and putting them live on the Internet.

Where as in some other countries, people view pushing half baked ideas live as virtuous and artists manifest destiny and/or a existentially important economic function of startups.

When people from different cultures interact and they have completely different unspoken assumptions it can result in misunderstandings. In my case, the correct thing to do was apologize for the misunderstanding (definitely not arguing, you would never convince them to change their core cultural values!), and then not use the specific service or company involved (that had intractable permission issues due to any member being able to deny permission), and just work with other services that had no built in conflicts with the fundamental purpose of their service. (Organization names and the services involved redacted for courtesy.)

No, capitalist economies tax effort and spend it on longer-term things. It's democracies where things can be rolled back by the next leader that are the main cause of short-termism.

(I don't have a better alternative to democracy; just stating that's where the flaw is. Well, that and zero incentive to do things well/efficiently outside of political kudos).
Cruise showed the DMV a video that cut out just before their car dragged (ran over) the pedestration. Effectively they were trying to do a hit and run as well by not showing footage of their car's behaviour that caused the injuries.
Isn't it expensive to register so many domains? I guess you could host them all as subdomains of alien.top or something. Anyway you're doing a great service, I still see people manually "mirroring" stuff to Lemmy from Reddit. It's nice to have an extra filter, but this automating some of that makes much more sense to me.
The main programmer of Kirby's Dreamland was Satoru Iwata (credited under the pseudonym Sunday Rain in the game) the later president and CEO of Nintendo.

Apparently Hiroshi Yamauchi the original Nintendo CEO saw promise in Iwata and insisted he'd be made president of HAL (and later his successor at Nintendo).
It's simple: just level the US to be as flat as Amsterdam and bikes will be just as viable for a wide enough range of people.
Agreed. I, and we (at work) use argparse and it works as intended. I don't know why I would ever switch at this point. Also I feel like arguments should not be ordered unless absolutely necessary, just feels like a head ache to me.
> They won't reduce congestion and traffic, because people won't have to drive they'll be OK with being on the road longer. You just hang out in your living room on wheels.

Traffic flows would become well coordinated and way more efficient, no more accordion effect and accidents to cause traffic jams.

> Parking... Where are the cars going to park exactly? How far from the restaurants and homes etc? Won't the extra trips from/to parking lots create more traffic?

It could be several miles from where the passengers are being dropped off. See above for why traffic won't be worse.

> Reduced income requirements, that's a new one to me. These cars will have more tech that's more expensive to build and maintain. How does that make them cheaper?

Of course new technology is expensive initially. Over time, it becomes cheaper and cheaper. Just like air travel, personal computers, broadband internet, etc.

> 50%+ of car trips are less than three miles... as a society what we need is a way to make those trips without cars.

More efficient use of the roadways from self driving cars would create opportunities for improvements in this area as well. Dedicated protected bike lanes, for example.
I don't see any indication(other than some people on HN saying this) that people would not want to own a personal vehicle anymore just because self driving cars are a thing. Whether the car drives itself or not, people want to have their own personal space. Not to mention the (very common) need for things like child seats which don't really work with shared cars.
Yes, absolutely. I think, in that case, a managed tileserver (using PMTiles or otherwise) is probably the best solution.
As someone who has spent more time participating in traffic as a pedestrian and on bike than driving cars and frequently cycles between these roles this feels like a bogus argument. DLRs make cars more visible to me even when I'm not driving a car, allowing me to better anticipate their behavior. This is especially helpful with curb-side parking.

Also bikes absolutely should have lights and are required by law to have them in my country (and to have them on at night, dusk or in reduced visibility conditions). E-bikes and e-scooters also have lights which are typically always-on regardless of lighting conditions.

Pedestrians don't normally have lights (although I've seen joggers wear hi-vis vests or head lamps, especially during early morning or late night runs) but pedestrians also don't move as rapidly and suddenly as vehicles. Plus in urban environments drivers are expected to look out for pedestrians, especially in narrower roads. "Child peeking out between parked cars" is a scenario covered several times during driver ed and the practical exam includes one emergency break without prior warning (tho in practice learners can make an educated guess about when it might be coming up, e.g. being led to a low-traffic street and instructed to "pick up speed a little").
That is exactly it, thank you!

I am currently sitting in a European train that was a replacement for another train that had, at point of replacement, a delay of 30 minutes on a 55 minute trip.

Since, well, everything could be much better and it's still fairly unclear who makes substantial progress on one of these problems, I am fairly happy to let various playbooks play out and see where progress can be made.
A rock instead of a hammer is also probably "good enough". Still a bad idea.
Since the breathing regulation centre is located in the medulla oblongata region of the brain stem, one can miss a surprisingly large amount of brain before one’s breathing stops.

Of course, if the event that causes one to miss part of one’s brain also induces swelling of the remainder all bets are off.

It's very hard to know which embedding models are objectively good now that everyone is gaming the benchmark.
Why has this been downvoted? Who is upset by this?
I think this is a key point. Old tech running perfectly fine; if it ain't broken don't fix it.

There's no way to be fully confident that what appears to be a simple update might not break the whole system. And I'd imagine this is likely what the bank is wanting to avoid rather than having to pay programmers to implement the changes.

You only have to look as far as TSB for a cautionary tale.
Most public transit isn't driverless, and that's actually one of it's key negatives. Perhaps think about it this way: driverless cars are effectively driverless buses sized for the flexibility and efficiencies that come with not needing a driver.

If modern computers had been invented in China and had had a decade or two headstart on the rest of the world then you may well have had to do just that.

This was an accident of history, not some deliberate plan to get the world to bow to the English speakers. And English was already well established as a major language in trade (due to it being superficially simple to learn), next to German, French and Spanish. China was pretty isolated for a long time culturally as well as geographically and the complexity of its script is another barrier to it being accepted as a common language by the rest of the world.

One of the more interesting things along this line in recent history is that with Brexit the EU no longer has an England/Wales/Scotland and a chunk of Ireland in it, but another chunk of Ireland remains. This led the French to immediately propose that French become the official language of the EU parliament but the rest of the countries wouldn't have it, and rightly so.

I'd like to see those studies because both as a driver and on bike DRL makes a huge difference. Maybe less so with stroads and massive parking lots where you don't have a lot of curb-side parking and visibility is generally good.

No, it will be the United Way. Or to help give poor children blankets.

And it will be offered, when Waymo's onboard AI detects you're on a date, verbally, so the date can hear.

So even if you give to charites in a meaningful way, you'll end up doing it again or look crass and be embarrassed. And as with many of these "at the till" charity collections, there is a fee given to the collector.

Who will be Google! Plus, not only do they get to track your co-riders, eg who you associate with, and where you go, and even all conversation in the car (anonymized, of course), now they get to track your charitable predilections, by offering choice.
