In my experience, it is. My podcast app of choice doesn’t have that permission (I don’t even think it asked for it), but it has the ability to bring up the system audio output selector widget and do AirPlay.

If anything, I usually see this for apps that want to do playback via Chromecast/Miracast. The well-behaved apps wait until the user interacts with Chromecast output, the iffier ones ask on first launch.
What should providers be using?

I've always presumed email was the most stable global identifier for a user, but that assumption appears to be wrong.
I don't think the state capacity of the US Government is sufficient to build state-funded social housing to the extend that meets demand.

And this is putting it mildly.

I also think that the kind of housing that results from Communism isn't very desirable.

Regarding Vienna: They still allow private investment into real estate.
Well, tying back to the original topic, if I as a healthcare provider am not allowed to "volunteer information about you" to LE if you're in a car accident or incident or similar, then why is a pharmacy allowed to, when the medications you take have a 1:1 or 1:few correlation to your healthcare?

Silly specific example in this case, as a healthcare provider, I can't tell a cop you have high blood pressure, because HIPAA. A pharmacy can tell a cop you take lisinopril/HCTZ, which is only prescribed for high blood pressure, because ... shrug.
So Apple decides which companies should have your location data? Niiiice
ah, ok. so this is for scenarios where you, the library author, define the trait, and users will implement it. But since different users have different requirements, you provide two+ trait definitions, so they can pick if they need Send or not.
This is a strange take. Homeless people generally can't afford to travel cross-country and "shop around" for a "home". These states — more accurately, some cities in these states — create homelessless, due to the high costs of living in those cities.

New York City doesn't have a favorable climate.

I think you've reversed cause and effect. The cities with high homeless populations tend to have, indeed need, more services for the homeless.
The statistics don’t really differentiate, which makes the problem harder to pick apart.
For everyone except Nvidia yes, who had been spending billions on AI before then. That's why they're in the lead.
C'mon man. Everyone knows these stats are doctored to create the illusion that somehow self driving cars are better than humans (spoiler: they are not if you consider all road and weather conditions). I will say this though: at least with waymo the car is not actively trying to kill you and is dumb af when it comes to egde cases like other "self-driving" cars
That is an ADU, and it’s not like that’s free. People need capital. The things that people are blocking are larger building projects.

Tesla faces inquiry by Norway's safety regulator over suspension failures
There's some news you just need to hear in person. And of course you're going to have a ton of questions and the most efficient way to do that is talk face to face.

Iirc they found a niche in medical device imaging.
This link and the other websites where I tried to find the numbers quote the capacity in GW, which is very curious because that's not a battery capacity unit. I have the feeling that when they quote 10GW, they mean 10GWh. If it is the case those batteries are peanuts. On a typical year you often have episodes of several days if not a couple of weeks with low to no wind.
Unfortunately my phone only corrects properly spelled words and leaves obviously incorrect words as is. But certainly an ironic and suitable mistake!
I think they did the right thing with CAFE but they forgot one critical aspect. Licenses. In order to qualify for the lower emission standards, your car must have commercial plates with appropriate commercial license requirements.

This will solve all problems immediately. Work trucks can effectively be affected independently from residential trucks.

(I also think the 0-60 of a car should require specialized licenses. Like anything under 8 seconds should require a license that a rich 16yo can't just get just because)

In any case, thats my thoughts.
> which is not something most people want for obvious reasons

Is this true? On sufficiently long time scales, do you really think that most people continue to imagine / desire law enforcement and public safety being mashed into the same entity(ies), and for those entities to be state agencies?

My sense is that most people recognize that this is a temporary phenomenon.

For advocates of slavery (including the current plantation-masquerading-as-corrections regime), police are of course necessary, because slavery is only economically feasible in the presence of this subsidy (which is how the current framework of police began in the USA in the first place).

But if we imagine something only slightly more utopian, like restorative and rehabilitative justice that isn't designed as a profit generator, empowered by a sufficiently democratic and highly sensitive internet, then it becomes easy to imagine relieving the police of their duties and moving to more mature and stable systems of public safety.
Just reading this post something didn't line up.

It never worked for me, but I thought that was a "because me" thing.

I've been on Agile for about 6 months and my average energy price is around 0.22p/kWh which is significantly less than the standard tariff most people get which is around 0.36p/kWh. There's been a few weeks where prices have been higher but it balances out so far.
The idea is that the company's Zoom admin should always specify the exact list of users who are allowed to be in their Zoom account. The email domain should have no bearing. So if you sign in as bob@mycorp.com, and that is a valid corporate account with the right permissions, you are let through. If you try bob+foo@mycorp.com, it should always fail. The pattern of "oh they have a mycorp.com email so they are probably legit" was broken from the start.

This is thankfully less of an issue now since everyone is moving to SAML-based logins and SCIM provisioning.

>"There was huge concern right away that you’d have videos appear in a political context that could change the course of an election or lead to political violence. But none of that has transpired."

This kind of "it hasn't happened yet so it won't" dismissal of the ever-closer ability to create a perfect fake video of X person saying this or that is so myopic I feel like it doesn't even deserve elaboration as to why it is wrong, we should skip straight to mockery and derision. We've already had multiple cases of fake Biden and fake Trump videos posted to the internet with hundreds of thousands of views before any kind of clarification came to indicate they were fake.[1] 2024 will put this to the test, and I have little confidence that this will remain the case.

Being exposed to someone else's details then adopting those (or similar) as your own is also indicative of suggestibility. Memory is unreliable.

Taking the top 10% of drivers would also be unfair, this time against AVs.

I’m simply saying that factors unrelated to driving skill should be excluded. Things like being inebriated, purposely breaking driving laws, looking at a cell phone.

The problem is that studies like these are used to imply that AVs are more skilled than humans at driving, but it’s not a conclusion that can be drawn, because the AVs are operating optimally and some percentage of humans are operating suboptimally.

What results like this actually show are that replacing all human drivers with AVs would likely result in less accidents (because by definition you’re excluding people who are malicious), which is not the same thing as saying that AVs are more skilled at driving.
Back in the real world SSIDs are a very coarse and not very reliable way of locating devices. You are exaggerating.

Well both would be worrying, maybe one less than the other. Really I'd rather have a safe car where the failure modes are not stupid, so I can stop worrying altogether.
We are totally not on the same page, but in all seriousness, I love your sarcasm. So maybe we actually would get along rather well at work!
You could say that "AI" has had potential for decades. It was also a great money pit for a very long time.

I'm surprised they were able to take a well-known band name that's a made up word and name their project after it
The main cost drive of housing is the land shortage, artificially created by zoning.
Obviously this isn't reflective of any actual history, but in the first season of Breaking Bad, one of the early innovations that the main characters made to how they produced meth was coming up with a method that avoided needing PE. If I remember correctly, they instead used methylamine, which is an amusingly smart choice by the writers because it literally starts with the word "meth" but has absolutely no utility when making meth, so they didn't have to worry about people getting any ideas from the show.
I think I like the liability word. Code can be a liability and an asset.

It can be an asset because it solves A, but it can also be a liability because it makes it hard to implement B and C.

A house can be a liability too if you're required to pay for public services, for example. Sure it's an asset too, but like code, the liability-side might make it worthwhile to get rid of.
I couldn't immediately find the repo for this, and get the impression its not open source.

Considering it seems to be constituted significantly of open source libraries and tools (which you commendably are up front about), I would want to see a lot more justification for why this is closed (e.g. those third party elements are only a tiny fraction of the product), and what significant value is being added. Or if I'm wrong, a clearer link to the repo.
You may not know the word "phenylephrine", but you almost certainly know Sudafed (and perhaps its generic name, pseudoephedrine).

If you live in the US or several other places, you probably know that the "good" Sudafed is kept behind the counter, and you have to sign for it. You may have also noticed that there is another version, called "Sudafed PE", that you can just pick up off the shelf.

A lot of people have done that and concluded for themselves that the PE version didn't work. That's why there are so many people commenting that they already knew the thing the article is about.

So... a lot of people were familiar with "PE", and apparently a lot of them knew that it stood for "phenylephrine". And it all touches on a bunch of existing controversy about why the effective medication is locked up.

It wasn't always. People knew that Sudafed was an pretty effective drug. (It was even used, under a different brand, on Apollo missions -- there was a TV ad with an astronaut endorsing it.) A lot of people are grumpy that a well-known effective medicine was made hard to get, and something else sneakily substituted.

The point being, it's not entirely a surprise that people are aware of the phenylephrine -- especially if they're older than, say, 40, and live in the United States. They remember, sniffily, when cold medicine started to suck.
yeah, a profit-based system. I like it. Then the police should check your ID and insurance when they respond to your call and if you don't pay into the system, you don't get protection. Efficient markets and all :)
I used Gleam for a day of Advent of Code. It's a cute little language. It has some Rust-isms, some Elixir-isms... I'd love it if it became more popular.
It seems to be forever in beta. It’s not clear that the technology as currently implemented can ever achieve what it set out to do.
Americans eat a ton of butter and cheese.
It could be. But the fact it’s behind a special permission you have to request from Apple tells me they likely think it’s secure enough.
I initially read this as referring to human-driven vehicles as substandard, falsely-advertized, and snake-oil, which... Fair...

For what it's worth, as a pedestrian walking around SF late at night I absolutely do trust Waymo more than human driven cars.
> That usually involves getting away from everyone and playing a computer game for a few hours, or going for a long hike, or just driving somewhere to be by myself. And it needs to be frequent.

I could write out this exact same sentence. You're not alone with your overall experience.
Tesla has killed by far the most people. They misrepresented their system to users and investors and almost entirely skipped testing to make consumers the testers, so they could try to catch up despite being almost a decade behind.

Our economy is built on a regulatory framework that protects consumers from companies that cut corners.

I've heard people say that Tesla is in the right because in the long term the tech will save more lives.

That's nonsense. If Tesla didn't cut corners, Waymo would get there just as fast as Tesla will cutting corners.
Unfortunately treating housing as an investment means that we are incentivized to limit the supply. These are two sides of the same coin.
Cops in that case were desperate to move liability for an MVA from their buddy who was off-duty and drunk to the other party in the collision, hoping to find that he had anything in his system that they could point to as a contributing, if not causing, factor (because let's face it, if they were willing to do that, I'm sure they'd also be entirely willing to let their buddy sleep it off a few hours before doing his draw so his numbers weren't problematic - I mean, the guy he killed isn't going to be able to testify against him).
well I consider it to be a metaphor for the maintenance required for the code. A piece of code 10 lines can be less of a maintenance problem as a oneliner if the latter achieves this via some needlessly esoteric technique.

Investing billionS over the course of CUDA and its predecessors. The whole concept about wanting to use GPU for not just Graphics but High performance or Highly parallel computing started before 2000s. CUDA announced in 2007, and most of the work predate back to Cg in early 2000s. Even Intel who were already very late to the party made the decision to go invest and start Larrabee in 2005. And there was PS3 Cell, which started development in 2001.

And yet all these work and success from Nvidia was because of, if you read 90% of HN comments for the past 2 years; Luck.

They could have given up at any point in time for the past 20 years and simply not do anything CUDA or GPGPU related. Because who would want to do that when vast majority of those investment were not even bringing in much revenue. Like Intel decided to cancel Larrabee. They persevere and hit the Jackpot some 10-15 years later. But all of this was because of; Luck.

Yes. Luck plays a big part. They could have continue another 10 years and they may never find the Killer App for it. But to ignore all the investment and work for such a long time and pin it down to Luck was about as rude and as disrespectful it can be. Especially on a forum which was started by VC with the spirit of entrepreneurship.
> I would have said their operating cost is much lower. Paying the wages of the drivers for a year costs more than the car - even a car plus all those fancy LIDAR's.

No, Cruise shared a few months ago that operating costs per mile is still higher than a car with a paid driver.

https://gmauthority.com/blog/2023/07/gms-cruise-operating-co...

If operating costs were below a human driver, they would be scaling as fast as possible to recoup the developmnent costs for the current level of tech, which have already been expended.
Those crucial details don't really seem to make it much better to me.
Pharmacists are more overworked than video store clerks. By a huge margin. They're also not treated well by the major pharmacy chains.
Yup. A while back, I was stopped at the register buying less than a liter of acetone and denatured alcohol (for cleaning molds and bonding surfaces for advanced composites) at the same time — forbidden. So I checked out one and paid, then checked out & paid for the other in two immediately sequential transactions. The check-out woman and I shared a small chuckle at how (in-)effective those measures were...
some of the largest financial scandals in Federal government are around HUD Housing and Urban Development. Here in California the State urban development funds were literally slush funds for the local rulers. People need to see the dark sides of public funding for themselves, saying it here is not enough.
> The reason I asked is that I've tried the OTC decongestant sprays (which I believe have phenylephrine in them?) some years ago, and they've worked damn well.

They're likely multi-medication sprays. Even if they were purely phenylephrine as an active (lol) ingredient, saline nasal spray (water!) helps with some stuffy noses, especially allergy-driven ones.

"A spray with phenylephrine in it worked" and "the phenyleprhine worked" are very different things.
Although it's early days, Bluesky has promising features regarding feed optimization. Users can build custom feeds and share them, you have control over sorting, etc.

I like their moderation approach as well, at least its potential. You can indicate yourself how comfortable you are regarding various potentially harmful topics: hide/warn/show.

I think this type of user control is exactly what social media needs. The power placed in the hands of users.
To some people, the name is the only part they purchased. The workings could be made of gummy bears and they'd be fine because it's a ROLEX.
I think a lot of people browsing audible look at the Total Playtime field and think "Wow, that's a lot of playtime for one credit" and it draws them into some novels over others. This can put a cap on the authors that choose to chase that total playtime value proposition.

Of course, the trilogy or series trick happens often too. I'm not sure how new that is, or how much that is influenced by audio books.
Certain things require permission from Apple to be able to even use. The API in question here is one of them.

Other things are just available to any developer but have to have a user prompt, for example saving to the photo library.
Having spent quite a bit of time on the road, it’s usually pretty easy to spot the difference.

That is if you even notice the stealth campers (to your point). But that’s really the original point - most people don’t notice the car dwelling locals, who spend a lot of their time making sure they aren’t noticed.
They did, but used it as a purely electric vehicle except for road trips.
Curious to hear answers to this too. People forget usernames and that alone would lead to drop off. People are also reluctant to give out phone nos. which is anyway a terrible identifier and has the same issues as email.
> Edit: And my point of view definitely isn't from American exceptionalism. I oppose my country's (Finland's) NATO membership and watch in horror how there's now going to be 12 bases in Finland that are essentially under pure US control (Finnish laws don't apply there, or even to the US personnel outside the areas, and Finland has no say in US military coming and going as they like).

That's a very sensationalistic take. No military bases will be established. The agreement between Finland and the US is about prepositioned stockpiles for use in case of war. Since the stockpiles belong to the US government, it is natural that they demand unrestricted access to warehouses holding their stuff.
I think I see the disconnect. People who can read code, don't see it as a liability, but an extremely valuable asset. People who can't read code, however, only see it as a liability. The value to them is in the compiled binary because that is what they know how to interface with.
I do know to always buy the generic version of a medicine when it's available, but I also generally rely on the FDA to not let companies lie about what a drug does. Apparently that has failed in this case.

I guess I only buy decongestants like once a year at most though, I would probably pay more attention if I needed them more often.
Yes.

If prices go up because demand is high and supply is low, then the way to fix this is by increasing supply.

If you cap the prices, supply will be even lower and you get shortages.

A pricing problem is when you have sufficient supply, but the sellers in the market are colluding to fix high prices. This can be fixed by trust breaking and/or price controls, but this isn't what's happening in real estate. Real estate is an extremely competitive market.
That doesn’t mean seeing an SSID means you are at exactly that location.

If you are in a city you see 50 SSIDs at any given moment. Are you at those 50 locations at the same time? No. Is there a way to triangulate where you are exactly? No, its unreliable and not an exact science.

As a rider, you can't touch the Waymo steering wheel or pedals, which eliminates the cause of the accident you referenced.
Librarians are not overworked the way pharmacists are.

To give you an idea, in a nearby Walgreens, we have pharmacists snapping at customers saying "We got your prescription only two days ago. It's not going to be ready that quickly!"
