Making it "worse" is the point. The practice is known as traffic calming road design – https://globaldesigningcities.org/publication/global-street-...

For example: Many rural towns put a giant unnecessary corner on the road entering the town. Forcing you to slow down and obey the speed limit. Or the road splits in two just to go around a pretty sculpture someone decided to put in the middle of the road. Again to force you to slow down naturally.
Given time you will come across almost all of them. And you're expected to rapidly pick up any gaps you may have in that list.

For the simple reason that on most teams, there's no other person.
A person can only be a true expert in a few areas. I'm interested in math and data science outside of writing business code. Maybe you're an expert in those too? I don't feel like I should be dismissed because I don't have much interest in hardware.
I don't know this for sure as I've never sat in one, but from the images I've seen the visibility through the Cybertruck looks awful. That is, the slant of the windshield makes it look like the driver sits rather low, and thus would have huge blind spots in front of them. Perhaps not a huge issue at slow speeds because there is a front camera, but I hate that feeling of having poor visibility as a driver.
For handwritten resumes, the pain is kind of the point: handwriting hundreds of copies, which must be perfect down to the last stroke, is how new grads demonstrate their diligence and commitment to future employers. (It's still an idiotic relic though.)
I had exactly this problem, and honestly the easiest thing to do was set up a $12/mo VPS and use actual cron. I evaluated the cloud scheduled function you laid out there and was like "...nah".

They built that reputation on merit. But for the past 10 years they focused a lot on profits. Ask any mechanic and no one in his right mind would recommend getting one. Unless you don't mind paying frequent high fees for repairs.

Is there a short range inductive or IR wireless standard to operate equipment?
Most equipment assumes normal human function like a microwave interface.

I think to make it easier to have automated home robots, we might as well start creating standard to skip as much physical steps as needed. E.g. instead of the robot having to press a button to operate a microwave or open the door to the microwave it could just send a command instead.

I am also thinking this standard could target mobility affected users and robots. So maybe with humans, the standard could send a vector SVG copy of the interface so the user can identify and Interact with it more naturally.

As for why inductive communication or IR? It's mostly for security reasons. I would rather this standard skip the usual authentication steps needed and just be based on proximity like NFC. Plus Bluetooth can have quite surprising range even though walls.

Would it work to just use NFC directly perhaps? Unfortunately it only has 1cm range typically for smartphones, but I think with a more powerful antenna the range could be extended. But by how much?

Anyway happy to hear others thoughts.
I happen to think that Musk is a loon, but I am rooting for the success of the truck, because, in the US, truck buyers are a super conservative bunch, and if you win them over, then the EV transition really kicks in. Truck buyers cannot afford machines that get between them and earning their livelihood.

The question for me is whether this, and the Ford F150 Lightning, are poser trucks, or genuine work trucks. Its winning at the latter that is important. Can they drive on non paved surfaces like construction sites? Can they carry a full sheet of drywall? Can they tow a horse box? Are there weird protuberances that are going to get a accidentally smashed by a kid trying to load a 2x4? Are there accessories like tool boxes available? Will it start at 4am in a Minnesota winter? I'm more convinced by the F150 here than the Cybertruck, but I'm waiting for real people to allocate real scarce resource to buy it rather than tech bros with excess cash.
I just wish they kept the ultrasonic sensors instead of solely relying on Tesla Vision. That was a huge mistake and they refuse to acknowledge it and instead insist Vision is better and all that is necessary. It's an inferior product.

Yeah but how many people never ride a bike because of this danger? Or let their kids walk anywhere near a major street? Almost everyone that I know in the US shares that fear, and they aren’t entirely wrong to feel that way (due to the current state of things).

Even when I had to take a break from running due to injury and started cycling, my doctor looked me stone cold in the eyes and asked me to please not risk my life like that.

~~Probably however Graviton3 instances will not be going away any time soon (Grav2 instances are still around). They'll likely fill a different niche where the Grav4 instances are going to be better for larger workloads that can make use of the whole CPU whole Grav3 instances will be available for people with smaller workloads.~~

Edit: Nevermind. A reply confirms the memory uplift is per core.
In my opinion, we plan on accomplishing this by using a container; it's not quite something we have today, but this is good feedback. :)

On Ubuntu/Debian, Postgres doesn't typically work this way, so it's not the way that pgxman works. pgxman works on top of the existing `postgresql` packages and with the existing package manager (apt) in order to install extensions -- which is also how it handles runtime dependencies, whether libraries or even other extensions.

So, that said, we have a container feature I could see using to effectively isolate for a single project. Right now there is only one single "global" container (per Postgres version) that pgxman will manage for you, but this is just a MVP of this feature. I could definitely see something like `pgxman c dev` or similar which will read a local pgxman pack file (pgxman.yaml) in your project and boot a "local" Postgres for you just for that project.

The pgxman pack is already a thing and is how the local container config is maintained, but we haven't tied it together in the way described above... yet. For more on both pgxman pack and the container feature, check out our docs.

I don’t care about Elon one way or the other. But the fact that he’s skewing more right wing in the last couple of years probably makes the truck more acceptable to drive in rural areas. It’s still gonna look weird, but I suspect people will not throw rocks at it the way they might have previously.
Just be a person, real person that listens to them, agrees when they make sense, but also point out contractual obligations, ramifications of leaving, never threats, just calm discussion. I was at E.A. when 3D0 flopped, and learned a lot about handling stress.
Absolutely agree. It’s indicative of a terrible long term vision on self driving. Sensor fusion is absolutely required.
Not that I would recommend using jemalloc by default but it’s definitely going to be better than musl’s allocator ;)

Thinly-veiled personal insult, check.
I wonder how much Elon spends to influence social media.

Above the $44B, I mean.
A few months ago I ordered an Uber Black in Bangkok and the driver showed up in a C300 AMG. I know it's not a high-end model (~50k USD), but I was shocked at how cheap the entire car felt. The leather is worse than the one used in base VW models, the armrests are pathetically small, visibility is bad. I'd 100% prefer to be a passenger in a Corolla or Camry.

It's Elon Musk that's lucky to have humanity, not the other way around, given that his primary skillset is in deftly taking credit for the achievements of others.
I’m extremely skeptical to buy a Tesla because of Elon. He’s erratic and constantly making wild promises his company cannot keep.

I have no problem with an eccentric CEO, but I do have a problem with the bald face lies he makes.
are you using GPT-4? because it's been incredibly helpful to me. major refactoring gets done in a matter of seconds, and when it doesn't work, I can just paste whatever compiler error I'm getting and it usually fixes the problem

That's not an insurmountable problem with a billion people as captive audience. At first glance the ISA is nothing special and that's a good thing. It's a run of the mill 64 bit RISC ISA with little endian byte order and no unusual alignment or store order constraints to watch out for. If something compiles for x86-64, ARM64, RV64GC, etc. it should compile for that LoongArch if there is a compiler (backend) for it. If the MMU stayed as similar to MIPS64 as their earlier chips it shouldn't be too much work to write and maintain a Linux (or *BSD port to it).

The custom ISA becomes a real problem if you need Windows and other closed source software on it, but China has declared it political goal to rid itself its dependency on Microsoft.

And you'll pay a lot more in taxes to maintain the roads: "an increase in axle weight from 18,000 pounds to 20,000 pounds causes 50 percent more damage to the pavement."

It's massive!
yes, but the article is about brands, not companies.
My understanding is that US-made Teslas are kind of poorly put together, while the Chinese-made ones are excellent, which would explain the middling rank. (And why US-made Rivians are near the bottom.) I'm not sure Chinese Teslas are sold in the US though?

That doesn't support your argument whatsoever. Generally the safest cars are the cars that break quickly. They absorb energy through breaking.

No. They are turning llvm into an "optional dependency", or plugin, or call it what you want. Day to day/debug compilation will be done with their own compiler and if you want you can cut a release with llvm to get all the optimizations when you're done, or at any time really.

Zig won't ship with llvm as part of the standard download, but i imagine it will be easy to get zig+llvm working
They started with MIPS III, moved to MIPS64 before incrementing on that to create their "own" ISA.
I've owned many car brands, and I can't say I'm at all surprised to continue to see Toyota/Lexus and Honda/Acura continue at the top. The thing I find so fascinating about that is that most of the cars they sell in the US, they also built in the US. So even though it is a Japanese company, it is US labor.

I think you're underestimating how much people love drama. Average people don't give a shit about what CEOs do, except when they fire half of a very public company and there's stupid stories to be shared for weeks and weeks.

Performance is not a one-dimensional scale where programs go from “slow” to “fast”, because there are always other factors at play. jemalloc can be the right fit for some applications but for others another choice might be faster, but it also might be that the choice is slower but better matches their goals (less dirty memory, better observability, certain security guarantees, …)

He used to be politically neutral but seems to have adopted a right-wing viewpoint that is getting increasingly right-wing over time. Not an extremist by any means but a definite shift. It started around the time he got into a scuffle with the Democratic administration over union issues so maybe it isn't a real shift just being opportunistic. Maybe it is just perception and I'm off-base.

As an investor in Tesla's IPO I find some of his behavior erratic and worrying. I certainly can't diagnose anyone and don't know the man personally. But sometimes he gives the impression he's abusing stimulants to stay awake for 72 hour stints. I worry about his health. I worry about how some of his decisions might negatively affect Tesla or SpaceX.

In the past he was known for appreciating contrary views and opposed yes-men but it seems like he is surrounded more and more by such people who say what he wants to hear in an attempt to leech off him. Again I don't have any personal knowledge but it is another worry that any rich person has to face. I hope I'm wrong about this.

The thing I'm most disappointed about is his moving from CA to TX to avoid income taxes.

The startup ecosystem, local infrastructure, education system, and many other factors that make California the global center of startups and innovation are paid for by those taxes. Or at least the region needs to pay for infrastructure, housing, etc to make it possible for such a system to function. Elon effectively declared "screw you future generations, I got mine".

Did moving to avoid income tax make him immoral? No. Was it illegal? No. But I hate that kind of thinking. You made your bones here in CA, now that you have more money than you can ever spend in a lifetime you want to bail to avoid paying into the system that made it all possible?

I want to be clear here: Elon is within his rights to do that. I'm not calling him a sinner. I just personally find it incredibly disappointing and demonstrative of a lack of appreciation for the factors that made him successful.

edit: I still own a Tesla vehicle. I still own shares. I still support SpaceX's mission. I don't fault anyone for being a fan of his, I'm just not as much anymore and I find that regrettable because he used to be focused on such grand and important things.

edit2: Twitter is also such a massive and pointless distraction born out of being personally offended that they were fact-checking and moderating some of his tweets. The world would be better off if he were focused on Tesla and SpaceX. Instead he's out there swearing at advertisers and doing petty things like removing verified checkmarks or banning prominent people who say bad things about him on Twitter - despite his purported support of "Free Speech". All of this is demonstration of extremely thin skin and lack of perspective.
You’re (presumably) an informed tech geek based on hanging out here - so your view makes sense. I do not believe that’s the case for the general not tech-informed public though. When I think of friends and family not in tech most of their view seems to be “neat, would love it, don’t want to put in any effort to make it work, so I’m fine without”
Elon isn't morally worse than my grandparents. It's currently much easier to rally people around things they hate than things they like or support. It seems like that was always true to a certain extent, but social media in particular has dialed it up to 11. Most of my coworkers and family define themselves by what they hate rather than what they like. I put a lot of effort into not going in that direction.
this feels like a very low bar
You seem to think I'm arguing against something there. I'm not, it is strictly descriptive.
Why do you think 99% of the new Tesla's today will be in a scrap heap in 20 years?
No, it's the opposite. Dedicated silicon (TPU, NPU, Intel/AMD client AI) blocks on commodity processors are lowering the cost of edge processing of high-volume raw data into low-volume, high-value signal for centralized aggregation.
I think it's clear now - mode 0 is used to suppress the error messages about yet-unseen labels in the first pass, and 3 to give the output with any errors. Meanwhile, by the end of the first pass, all labels would have been seen, so in the second pass, the assembler could insert the correct addresses for them, at the places where those labels were used in jump statements, even if some of those statements were before where the labels were defined.

But I'll check that page out anyway.

Thanks again.
And what does that have to do with the people buying those cars now? It would be one thing if people were buying those cars and that was still going on. That's why this is different.
Yeah, let's be a uniplanetary species and get extinct because someone on Twitter is wrong!

That is a real vision for our species.
>The washing machine labour could have been solved with centralising washing as a society, in the same way we centralised childcaring.

Are you genuinely unaware of the laundry sweatshops in the early 1900s? Have you never even seen Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

We've done centralized laundry. It was sweatshop work and was pretty terrible for everyone involved. Today we have laundry pickup services, but it's too expensive for most people. Are you willing to pay $40 for a load of laundry? Because that's what you get without sweatshop labor.

Seriously, read up on early 1900s labor practices. The labor laws we have today are written in blood. A lot of women and children suffered gruesome deaths and disfigurement, lifelong illnesses and disabilities.
Wild to me that SO many people buy a car based on what other people will think more than based on the actual capabilities of the car.

But then this is Tesla so I'm not surprised.
EV trucks will not win over “super conservative” truck normies until they are more affordable, can do 500 miles to a “tank”, and can do that while hauling a load. My old Ecoboost F-150 had a 33 gallon tank and could easily do 650 miles per tank on a road trip. I can fill up while I grab a coke and take a leak and that’s too good to give up.

On all accounts EV is better than ICE except for range and ability to replenish your fuel. Once they are on par in that department the explosion will happen. Time is money and when you can fill up your tank in 5 minutes and hit the road immediately that makes a huge difference. Don’t need to wait for a charge port either. Gas stations are ubiquitous.

The cyber truck is not a truck though. The bed is smaller than what you’d get on a midsize like a Tacoma and we don’t have towing data yet. It’s a fashion statement plain and simple. The only EV truck worth considering is as you’ve said the Lightning but you can’t tow a damn thing with it because the range gets sliced in half, and that’s way worse in the cold.
Forget the driver, you can't control for that when you're walking. So you're left with acting better as a pedestrian.
If you recognize that your in a blind spot, are you prevented from adjusting your position because you've pulled too far forward to actually place yourself in the blind spot?

I know I sometimes find myself in positions that I know well to avoid, but sometimes it takes a second for it to be realized. My favorite is being aligned next to a semi's trailer wheels. I will slow down to avoid sitting in that spot when moving, not during stop-n-go. So I understand it's sometimes obvious after the fact.
Interestingly a similar study from Germany for 2022 has some very different results and I need to say I prefer their way of measuring things, as the ADAC (the equivalent of AAA) has looked at how many cars needed actual help on the road in comparison to registered cars, so minor problems don’t count and you can say things about the longtime reliability of manufacturers.
However some differences probably stem from different driving patterns and services offered by the brands.
