That’s not what they’re proposing though:

I thought it was only in the mid 10 figures, but it does appear to be 11 figures.
But if Wayland is a new step of development for X, then these features could be implemented differently, I believe. Maybe for security reasons or simplicity or others. As if someone misses X so much, they could still use it or even maintain it if they can. I never used X much, as I completely switched to Linux just a few years ago. So I don’t miss a thing.
> ISAs can be set to kick in a few miles above the posted speed limit, giving drivers the ability to go faster when, for instance, passing a vehicle in the slow lane.

What do you think is the ratio of lives saved by people going >> the speed limit (e.g. 20mph over) vs people killed by speeding drivers?

Also according to your logic we should never have concrete road medians because they prevent people from entering the opposing lane. And yet we do. Why do you think that is the case?
In ye olden days of the late 90s a 60bhp 1.0l little could get up to just over 100 on flat ground, and about 110 going down hill on a motorway.

I did not like the feeling of being in that sort of car when being driven at those speeds!
The interesting point for me was:

> Every failing hard drive requires a stressful operation on the remaining disks (resilvering) that may push the next drive to failure.

I saw something similar: RAID array with 5 disks and 3 spare disks.
One night controller detected failure, ejected one drive and replaced with spare.
After rebuild of RAID it ejected another disk and then another. In an hour all spare disks were used and on fourth failure it stopped work

What was probability of such series of failures?
People driving cars blow right through stop signs too. It's a lot less dangerous when cyclists do it, typically. Lastly, I'm not at all seeing how that is relevant to this discussion.
There’s also the matter of PS/2 interruption vs USB. I don’t believe it truly matters much anymore but there were distinct advantages of PS/2

The link below has several outlined though I can’t speak to their veracity or relevance anymore

Making an analogy between a car with a bowling alley being as useful as having the ability to know you have a valid selection from a list of choices does not exactly reflect well on your priorities.
So your hypothesis is that more shame would lead to less obesity?

I don't buy it. Dietary habits and the types of food available have changed as well as higher levels of sedentary lifestyles becoming more commonplace. "Willpower" has almost nothing to do with it. Very few people prefer to be overweight. The positive body image stuff comes after the weight to keep from hating yourself and probably gaining more weight due to the depression.
Right and thats what I'm saying. It's messy. They screwed up. Messy is bad. If they needed to get rid of him this last minute and make a statement 30 minutes before market close, then the failure happened earlier.
Assume the AGI has access to a credit card and it goes ahead and reserves itself every GPU cycle in existence so it's 1 month is turned into a day, and now we're back to being fucked.

Maybe an ongoing GPU shortage is the only thing that'll save us!
> I challenge the author to go find a wired keyboard or mouse that comes with a USB C plug. it’s possible, but not easy.

So let’s see . . . I have the following in my house, most are at least 2 years old and all are USB-C :

MacBook Air

MX3 mouse

Keychron keyboard

iPhone 15

iPad Air

Xbox controllers (several)

LG 4K monitor

Racer Headphones

Rode VideoMic Go II

Pebble V2 speakers

GoPro 11

Chromebook laptop
Sam and Greg were part of the board apparently, so definitely a coup (we can debate for hours if it's a coup or not, but come one, imagine the scene being played in a movie and not being played as a coup).

Another way to think about these is that companies are basically small countries.
Personally I think these numbers are fabricated horseshit, drafted by some engineer behind a desk running endless simulations.

The USB industrial complex made the same claims with micro-USB vs mini-USB; and are now doing it again with Type-C.

My empirical evidence: I've now had to replace two laptop motherboards due to a (mechanically) failed USB-C port.

Guess what I haven't had to do in 25 years? Replace a failed USB-A socket. Ever.

USB-C connectors are fragile and companies are making more and more large, heavy cables with huge connectors especially common with Thunderbolt or port replicator-type devices. It is a recipe for disaster and they expect us to fall for this USB Jedi Mind Trick again.
You're right, the handling of it was brutal.

I don't think so. You forget specifics (names, workflow) but the problem solving approach and a few anecdotes always come back. Imo at least.
Do you think Germans get to drive at 100mph on city streets? They have speed limits too where necessary.

"Startups die from suicide, not homicide." - That's a great way to put it. 100% true.
Yes, it took me some time to adapt to the fact that there is much less time for your own projects. Now I'm totally fine with that. The good thing is, the kids grow older and suddenly time windows become available again.

I once read that about 80% of the whole time you spent together with your children is spent before they are 10 years old. So your are right when you say your want to spent the time with your children now.

Sorry, forgot about Worldcoin.
I remember back in the day getting my first server online. Then a few months in I stumble across the ssh logs… let’s say it was quite handy because at the time were trying to come up with a name for our kid.

The internet is a jungle with dragons. Nowadays I try to keep everything on my vpn as an extra security layer.
Also as TFA pointed out, simply changing the setting of the existing limiter is not what they’re proposing:

> NTSB’s proposed solution: Adopting Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA), a modern and techier version of the speed governors that Cincinnati considered a century ago. Rather than preventing a vehicle from ever exceeding a given threshold, ISA uses geolocation to automatically reflect the legal limit on a given street or highway.

Someone has to compile this database of geolocations of every speed limit in the country and write software to fetch it and adjust the governor on the fly. That doesn’t cost $0.

So one day you get the ceo of Microsoft to attend your dev conference and next day you get fired and then another day there are negotiations to get you back. What is this? A Russian roulette or a game of thrones??
LLMs aren't built that way, they're text predictors. If the text begins with "it's massively successful", there was very few instances in the training data where this didn't actually result in success.
Even worse on mobile Firefox.
The connector lifetimes are tested by some manufacturers. When I was working on USB (electrical) testing at Microsoft we had test jigs for testing connectors to failure and I can vouch for Microsoft's connectors having lifetimes exceeding 25,000 insertions.

We would also test how many miles a mouse would travel before the glides would wear out.
I’m curious whether those who voted for this submission have ever taken a look at their server logs.

Almost every public website on the open Internet receives thousands of HTTP requests similar to the ones mentioned in this text file. This is one of the several reasons why web application firewalls gained popularity years ago, especially as vulnerability scanners became widespread.

Years ago, when I was employed at a young security startup, my colleague and I dedicated countless hours analyzing this particular kind of web traffic. Our objective was to develop basic filters for what eventually evolved into an extensive database of malicious signatures. This marked the inception of what is now recognized as one of the most widely used firewalls in the market today.
I’d recommend adding an example of the output to the repo’s README. Let us see what this tool can do without having to install it.
Micro-USB and USB-C receptacles are both designed for a minimum rated lifetime of 10,000

The idea that micro-USB and USB-C are supposed to be equally durable is the wrongest thing I've read all day. Frankly, mini-USB is the single most delicate connector I've ever used. Other than a couple PDAs, I never owned a single mini-USB device those receptacle didn't end up breaking off the board.
You still shouldn't be driving that fast. In your panic you're even more likely to make a mistake and end up killing yourself, your passenger and, potentially, another car full of people.

Emergency vehicles are involved in proportionally more accidents and they have trained drivers.
Not sure what association you mean. Time dilation? length contraction? Both are well supported by evidence AFAIK.
You are still doing it
I did burn out. One day I decided I had enough, I lost my temper at the douchebag CTO, I had a “talk” with the CEO and laid myself off after. Spent six months unemployed, and I don’t give a shit. Honestly quitting was the best decision I ever made. Life is to precious to waste on idiots.
The guy was on drugs going > 160 km/h downtown and skipping at least one red light. German highway speed is not relevant here.
Personal attacks are not welcome and against HN guidelines.

You can disagree with me and criticize my points, but I do not feel like it's done in a good faith or is leading to anything constructive.

So I'm going to stop the discussion here and let the readers judge by themselves what I meant, and what to conclude about it.
Latest report from TheInformation:

I feel like most of our problems in the US are cultural/educational, not technical.

The US population just feels... increasingly both hostile to itself and aggressively, maliciously ignorant.

It is very disheartening.
I do my best to avoid going into something too much.

The main things I've found that burn me out is boring work, working too long and no end to the work. Usually it's enough to just leave or stop after my normal hours and do something else.

Being able to choose to do other things (even if it's stare at a wall) helped me a lot
Maybe this news should challenge your priors, then?
If this news appeared 10 years ago, it would be certainly perceived as written by a crazy guy. But it is true today.
There's ways to manage it in the short run (increasing caffeine intake for me) but it's not a good idea to ignore the signs too often. If you need to take a rest, take it. No matter what others say, you know your mind/body best. You'll be surprised how little people around you care that you're not releasing features as fast.

> Go doesn't go out of its way to make weird things happen on UB like C compilers these days tend to

The reasons C compilers “tend to go out of their way to make weird things happen” is they optimise extremely aggressively, and optimisations are predicated upon the code being valid (not having UBs).

Go barely optimises at all, and does not have that many UBs which could send the optimiser in a frenzy.
We could also go the other way with supernatural, divine, extraordinary, otherworldly, and alien!
Not really, you have an option to exclude your content from being indexed by Google (robots.txt).

I don't care as much about Google losing money because of ad-blockers, they have plenty of money going around. The real people losing here are the ones who are creating the content. As it is they need to amass a large number of views to earn few dollars from a video. Depending on the type of content, a lot of time, money and effort goes into creating each of those videos.
What if you control for the amount of driving done? Certainly I recognize it's still higher in the US, but people here do drive a lot more I would suspect.
Do you have an outlet for your expectations? Is that outlet also the people who are adjacent to your burnout? Are you sure your model of what is asked of you is not excessive compared to what they were asking? Is there a way you can negotiate a better prioritization of efforts?
Hey, so I've got a few thoughts here that I'll word. I'm sure other people are going to say it better, but here we go:

* Remember that Social Media is the place that everyone shows 'their absolute best' - even a fake version of their best. It doesn't show their times of down, their stress, and so on.

* the social media that you're using may connect thousands or hundreds of thousands of people together. There's only 365 days a year, and even if each person only has one good day a year that they show off, 273 people (out of 100k) would share each individual day. It'd look like you're going slow.

* As other people have said, life is a marathon, not a sprint. You've got a whole lot of years left and you want to be able to function in them, too. Burnout can absolutely ruin developers, and has, many times in the past.

* As other people have said, "work to live", don't "live to work". Now, I get the feeling that this is your personal project or your business you're running at. That's awesome! You still need to give yourself space between a singular project so you can recuperate from it. How often do you look at code you wrote or things you worked on when you were at a fever pace and go "wow, what was I thinking?"; or, when you couldn't solve a problem for days, go to bed and then hey, the solution is right there! Give yourself the space so that those events can happen - and they happen because you're getting away from the work, you're getting rested, you're relaxing.

Your health, your life, the connections you make are of incredible value and as you get older, they get harder to train, recover, grow. Make sure you're tending to yourself like you should in ways that are completely disconnected from your work.
On Firefox I recommend uBlock Origin oder AdGuard, both block ads completely.
You can actually damage the port if you unplug a PS/2 connector while power is on. Happened to me.
How much above the speed limit will ISAs let you go? How will ISA enabled cars deal with non-ISA enabled cars? E.g., it isn't uncommon to see 80 in a 60 on one of the highways near me (which is WAY higher than people used drive pre-pandemic). ISA-enabled cars then present an additional danger to the flow of traffic, acknowledging that driving 80 in a 60 is also dangerous and legally, reckless driving.

Things external to the car, like road medians, are there for "everyone". Doesn't matter if you have a Delorian, where the speedometers are universally always "0" regardless of speed or a fancy Ford Malibu from 2024.
Only some differentiate. In Denmark there is no separate social tax. It's all the same tax.
It would be nice to see USB-C replace hdmi etc. But USB-A has been adopted as a sort of low power dcdc power delivery method. It’s in cars and wall sockets. Things that have very very long life times. USB-A will probably stick around for a long time.
I would definitely prefer not to be on any drug permanently, but many don't have any negative side effects from glp1 inhibitors. or at least they are very minor. As for loss of muscle mass, I think that is just as reactionary as the whole "ozempic face" thing. which is to say, of course your face looks different if you lose a lot of weight. and of course when you lose weight, you will always lose muscle mass as well. that's just part of losing weight. a good diet can help offset some, but you are going to need some amazing genetics or drugs to maintain muscle while only losing fat.
Yes, a lot of tools, including some like w3af do:

The pun in this terse reply is brilliant.
If YouTube (and google) forces me to look at ads, I will simply start clicking on all of them, and they can deal with the lower conversion rate
So even if you had to drive 100 miles to the hospital, going at 100mph (the proposed limit) you are going to take an hour. Going at say 120mph you are going to get there just 10 minutes faster (50 minutes).

And this all assumes that there are no corners, no traffic lights, no other traffic etc - that you can just point your car directly at the hospital and hit 120mph and sit there for 50 minutes straight with no interruptions.

If you plan to average 120mph for 50 minutes of driving (to allow for corners, traffic, etc) then you are approaching Formula 1 car levels of speed (they average 138mph across a race), but in a non-F1 car, on a non-F1 surface/track, and a non-F1 skilled driver.

If you need to go less than 100 miles, say 10 or 20 miles then the time saving of going over 100 shrinks by orders of magnitude so the benefits of going over 100 shrink too.

This does not sound like a reasonable argument to me.

Indeed, this is one possible end game, if we cannot block the ads from our computers, we can at least block them from our ears and eyeballs.

I view ads as a reminder to myself that I should maybe be doing something else with my time. I would love an ad blocker that blanked my entire computer screen for the duration of any ad, it would be a great chance to breathe and stop doom scrolling.
I ran a public-facing web server — you won’t believe what happened next!
This is absolutely not true. I lived in the US (midwestern food desert) for half a year and absolutely made do with fresh tomatoes, ground beef from the counter, bell peppers, fresh garlic, onions etc. I didn't even have a car and had to walk over 30 minutes to the nearest store.

The people in my apartment were all pretty young and were surprisingly confused every time I was making something fresh from scratch. And I am by far not a good cook by any standard in Europe - I'm far from average probably.

I did the math (because I was broke) - on my "lazy" weeks where I didn't cook much fresh I spent much more money on average. I had access to 10 different fast food locations before I hit the first grocery store, this is the actual problem.
You made me realize that I grew up without cable and not having some or all the streaming services is basically the same. It doesn’t matter too much.
That database already exists and many new cars have it anyway. My mid range Honda from 2018 has it, for example. Clearly, Honda and Acura wouldn’t need to develop such a thing, and I’m guessing neither would virtually any other manufacturer.

Money isn’t the problem. If you ask people “should we increase the average cost of a car by $10 so that 15k fewer people die every year” most people will (correctly) answer yes. The issue is that it won’t save that many people, and it doesn’t do anything to solve the actual issue.
That is dishonest.

Implicitly shared memory is literally the default behaviour of the langage, and you have to be careful to keep that controlled or contained.

Pretty much as in every other shared memory concurrency langage.

The quip about sharing memory by communicating is cute but it’s just that, the langage does not encourage let alone enforce it.

In fact it went out of its way to remove some opportunities e.g. because `go` is a statement there is no handle which could communicate the termination and result of routines.
When buying an expensive (relatively) computer was a big deal in my house, I had a hard time convincing my dad about the iBook G3 which didn't come with a floppy drive.

Apple has been at it since the dawn of time.
Plea bargaining is a dangerous game IMO.. It incentivises a suspect to plead guilty because even if they're not they's a possibility to get a much higher sentence if the court thinks otherwise.

So people can be coerced into pleading guilty. I'm glad we don't have this system where I live.
Every individual is different. I recently learned about the DISC personality model. It basically says that there are four basic personality traits. Your personality is dominated by one of the four types or a mixture of them.
Each personality type thrives with different working styles and working conditions.

It helped me a lot to know what type I am. Now I know what my strength and weaknesses are. It's surprising how accurate this simple theory seems to be in my case.

Apart from that

- I have clear priorities (family first, health second, work third)

- I always have something that I look forward to. If nothing is on my schedule, I schedule an activity that I can look forward to.
Hey I know something about this! I just mailed my organization's RRF-1 a couple of days ago. The author of this post seems to be confused. My organization is on the same fiscal year as OpenAI, and our RRF-1 had to be mailed by November 15th. That explains the supposed "six month" delay. Second, if it's mailed on November 15th, it might not have even been received yet, let alone processed. This post feels like grasping at straws on the basic facts, setting aside the fact that it just doesn't make any sense to imagine a board member filling out the RRF-1 and going "oh wait, was there financial fraud?" the morning of November 15th. (That's ... not how the world works? Under CA law, any nonprofit with 2M of more in revenue has to undergo an audit, which is typically completed before filling out the 990, and the 990 is a pre-req for submitting the RRF-1. That's where you'd expect to catch this stuff, and the board's audit committee would certainly be involved in reviewing the results well in advance.)
Different approach: Only use youtube.com as a source for JSON. (There is no worthwhile video at youtube.com anyway, all worthwhile video is at googlevideo.com.) As such, never see any ads. The JSON contains all the information needed, including the goooglevideo.com URLs. No adblocker or "Javascript player" are necessary.
