> They count pure # of accidents and not accidents per miles driven from what I heard.

> misleading

I will agree that the data presented could be much better than they currently are.

To call this misleading, however, wouldn't you have to have a reasonable prior that the miles driven for Teslas are so much higher than the other brands that the trend we see doesn't make sense?

I would be more persuaded if you said that Teslas are more likely to drive in urban environments where crash risks are higher - it is hard to imagine that two popular brands with ICEs, Ram and Subaru, would have fewer miles driven than Teslas
Brontosaurus is controversial! A paper in 2015 asserts that it's distinct from Apatosaurus. When I was in school it was well understood to be just another name for the apatosaurus. Some teacher claimed it was an apatosaurus with the head and tail switched. But there's been some activity in this space!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brontosaurus
They're quite keen on account-walling everything.

I think Musk has become unhinged and I don't want to support his business, and deleted my account a few months ago and never looked back. The people I care about have also moved to Bluesky, which I don't really like much, but I don't have any major issues with. My heart is with Mastodon but after looking into running my own instance, I've come to the conclusion there are major architectural issues.
The headline as written should surprise no-one. Anyone receiving free money would probably have their life improved along some dimension, even if it just means they're not doing as many dangerous things to get money to buy more drugs. The implicit assumption seems to be that giving homeless people money to improve their lives is inherently a moral good.

Unlike many homeless advocates, I don't think it is a given that taking money by force from productive hardworking people and giving it to mentally ill drug addicts is inherently moral or good for long term societal stability.

No. No more than anyone made Motorolla over-engineer the first cellphone. We have been over-engineering long before the cloud and will continue long after.

Did it make it easy to over-engineer? Yes.

Is it more common for things to be over-engineered? Probably.

Does this question gloss over the actual cost of getting something running that is useable by more than a handful of people? Yes.

Would I ever want to go back and write code like we did 20+ years ago? Nope.
I respect you and your contributions to Mozilla and the Web, but you're wrong. These two sentences aren't even logically consistent:

Aside from that, sorry, but I have a huge distaste for the XKCD-style just-make-a-claim-on-the-internet-and-wait-for-someone-to-correct-you strategy of factfinding. It's reckless and annoying.

Anyone who's curious about this subject has more than enough information from this thread alone to turn up the relevant details on their own by now. I'm not going to do any archeology at this point in the discussion, because my patience and the amount of resources I'm willing to put into this topic have by now been exhausted. The only thing I'll say is that the Components.classes[`@mozilla.org/embedding/${...}`] namespace didn't exist for no reason.
The point is not that it helped, the point is that they used it to exit homelessness. This is important because of the pervasive and empirically incorrect assertion that people do not have housing because they simply choose not to.
In the particular case of Perelandra, without too many spoilers, the devil possessed a man from Earth and was using him to try and tempt the Venutian equivalent of Eve into causing another Fall. How sometimes killing evil instead of arguing with it might apply to more practical religious and moral situations in real life is left as an exercise to the reader.

I feel really sorry for JetBrains. They've built, over a long time, a company that makes money from actually good engineering and I was happy to pay for their products for a long time. Then VSCode happened and there just doesn't seem to be a point any more :(

I'm pretty sure I heard about it here on HN... Basically civil asset forfeiture has been so bad that they're revising the bills.

Things got so fucked up that there are police departments that were stealing people's wealth using civil asset forfeiture to then buy military vehicles.

It went too far and everybody agrees on that and I think congress did / is going to do something about it. TFA is from 2015, here's a bill from 2023:

Not sure where it's at but at least there's some hope.
I wasn't talking about what governments should and shouldn't do, or how they should behave. Or even anything US specific - I'm not American. I was just addressing the statement that guerilla tactics work and Afghanistan was the example cited. And I don't think Afghanistan is a good example in this case.

Guerillas fighting an occupier (especially a democratic one) have had a reasonable track record of success. Guerillas fighting their own government much less so - the world has been and still is littered with those conflicts. There's a big difference in what is at stake from someone who can just go home, and someone who is fighting for their own home/survival.

> I don’t think its productive to look down on Cambodians as less civilised or believe in a sort of American exceptionalism, where things like the Cambodian genocide is not a possibility.

I think it's silly to pretend that different countries' institutions are all equivalent. Some have much more robust systems of checks and balances, justice systems, levels of corruption, etc. And no, it's not that Americans are 'more civilized' than Cambodians, it's just a byproduct of the circumstances of history that led to this point.

God forbid that physicists would use the existing lingo instead of inventing their own and create more confusion.
I'm a bit confused on how this could scale - if the way it works makes permanent alterations to the glass (which the article mentions and I presume would be the reason it is resistant to ransomware), what does it do when data changes? Or this a write-once, read-multiple-times solution?

Edit: After reading MSFT's official site on this, it is meant more for extremely long term archival of data, and is intended to be Write Once Read Many which makes much more sense now
with llama.cpp and a 12gb 3060 they can get the an entire mistral model at Q5_K_M n ram with the full 32k context. I recommend openhermes-2.5-mistral-7b-16k with USER: ASSISTANT: instructions, it's working surprisingly well for content production (let's say everything except logic and math, but that's not the strong suite of 7b models in general)
The question is more if your fellow humans appreciates you enough to help you.

On the other side even the egoistic view would give homeless people money just to have them of streets.
I don't doubt you can find an instance that smokes your average workstation. The question is how much more does it cost over just buying the equivalent machine outright.

Is the markup reasonable, is it crazy, or is it an outright scam such as charging for egress data? Knowing AWS, it definitely won't be the first option, because why would it be if people are willing to pay more?
On the other hand, if they're boxed in and unable to maneuver, does it really matter the reason behind it?
I think a lot of productive hardworking people's money has been spent on propaganda whose sole intention is to ensure that people equate homeless people to "mentally ill drug addicts" rather than, say, "private equity real estate buyup refugees"
> That introduces lots of branching in the code which is busy-loop-based and branch prediction is not what I'd want for consistent timing.

I don't see how so basic a call would create conditional branches that would have to be predicted. Calling the function is an unconditional branch-and-link, after which it should just be doing a load and returning. (It's LLVM with the equivalent of -O2, it's not going to be doing anything weird.) Unless the return address isn't cached in these processors?

It looks very nice for exploring the large design space of what UI an app needs, and actually laying it out. I think in terms of the backend, but the gap to visualize what the frontend needs like can be large; the blank page stares back so much. Hoping something like this can help.
That tweet is just plain ignorant. Medical school graduates go through several years of residency, which is closely supervised on-the-job training, before becoming physicians. It's rigorous, stressful, and the hours are very long. For the US in particular, residency for surgeons lasts 5 years and residency for neurosurgeons, since the tweet mentions brain surgery, lasts for 7 years; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residency_(medicine)#United_St...

If the people who repeat this dumb meme want to do the effective equivalent of five to seven years of continuous examination on top of a rigorous college education before becoming developers just so they can have less rigorous interviews, they're welcome to go for it.
A lot of the debate is very sincerely arguing that it doesn't actually help, so making it clear that it really actually does is important to shut down some of the ignorance:

“It may not be earth-shattering that providing money is going to help meet basic needs, but I do think it dispels this myth that people will use money for illicit purposes,” Henwood said. “We weren’t finding that in the study.”
The government is very good at giving people money. It's less good at adjudicating whether people require that money. Replacing every government assistance program with direct, unconditional cash transfers would almost certainly be cheaper than the bureaucracy that must be maintained to ensure only "deserving" people get assistance.
It really depends on how well you want the design to integrate with your codebase, which is where most of Plasmic power lies on, such as: leveraging your existing custom components as building blocks within the design tool; or adding heavier instrumentation to props and rendered contents on the code side.

It is possible to use Plasmic's render API (https://docs.plasmic.app/learn/render-api/) to fetch the rendered HTML and just render your designs using any framework, but that means it's a more limited experience.
That was my first thought, too: I’d love to see it broken down by models - Tesla’s marketing has been about sports car performance so I’d bet that if you broke most of these down more you’d see it’s not the brand but certain buyers. I doubt Subaru Forrester drivers are pushing those numbers up, either.
I might have misunderstood his comment (not english native) and present my apologies if i did.

However my understanding is that proclaiming someone opinion is a “minority outlier” without any more info or source is rude and close minded. Also, how do you understand “minority” in his comment?

It’s like saying “I have a different opinion of yours and I think your opinion is not popular here so shut up please.”
By the reactions, his post brought interest and more ideas from others so it’s a good think he didn’t auto-censored.
We threaten people with death or life in prison and they still do things. I'm skeptical of the ability to prevent bad behavior in this fashion - especially when it's a much greyer area of culpability.
Read the article, or read the recent UCSF study on homelessness[0]. The data suggest that mental illness and drug addiction are both symptoms of, or exacerbated by, homelessness, not causes of it.

I know you're being sarcastic and that's fine, but the target of your sarcasm is incorrect. ISPs are very far from a "dynamic free market economy". Complex problems don't lend themselves to pithy internet commentary though.
I'd be skeptical that Tesla vehicles, which are popular in urban areas, would have more miles driven on average than pickup trucks which are more popular (but certainly also present elsewhere) in more rural / exurban areas where travel distances to work and shopping are longer.
“i correct“ -> “incorrect”, I presume?
Who'd have guessed it is hard to safely transition from not driving/inattentive to driving in an instant while in traffic.
I would agree with you but it's not that simple. In Toronto there was a "controversy" when the schools allowed parents to exempt their children from drag queen story hour.
I was trying to be brief but you are correct. NKLA was not in the SP500, but it was in the Russel 2000. Also, target retirement date funds will hold total stock market index funds, which will contain NKLA.

I think, with most WYSIWYG editors in the past, a developer runs into some limitation, forcing them out of the system into uncharted/hacky territory. But for Plasmic, developers are a first-class citizen.

For example, one huge advantage with Plasmic is that Plasmic components run within your React tree. This means you can naturally embed Plasmic components in your React components, and even the other way around!

> Review summaries created by generative artificial intelligence also sometimes mischaracterize products.

The subtitle seems very neutral and expected. From the article:

The problem seems to be that there's no quantification of frequency/weighting associated with the summaries.
Hi all!

I'm Bryan, the founder of PodcastMemo. Like many of you, I've always wished for a way to capture the knowledge of the podcasts I listen to, especially when I'm on the go. Taking notes wasn't always practical during train rides or car trips. That's why I created PodcastMemo, a platform that automatically summarizes new podcast episodes into short, concise formats.

Simply use the search bar to find your favorite podcast or episode and revisit the highlights in the podcast notes and summary without the need to listen to the entire episode again. Give it a try and let me know what you think! Hope you find it as helpful as I do!

> the AI improves their ad relevancy to such a degree that it makes google search more valuable, not less.

More valuable to who? In this case it seems like more relevant ads increases the value of Google Search to advertisers but not necessarily users.

If, as a user, I see ads that are more directly targeted at me, that is a negative value in a search engine. I never want targeted ads. I only want to see what I searched for.

That said, for the small minority of users like me, Google may never be able to overcome their “advertising company” label. And that label is an instant black list.

I've known this as feigned incompetence, but apparently it's more known as weaponized incompetence or strategic incompetence [1]. Though, all of the citations are from the last few years, so I think even the given name might be new.

I originally came across it in context of men getting out of doing housework by intentionally doing it poorly to not be asked to do it again.

If the point is continued legal meaning then it would be better to digitally publish in any way that allows distributed verification of the record as what was published and not challenged.

Probably thousands of people have some means to tamper with that archive, but courts don't really care to revisit hundred year old wills in the ways soap operas imply.
You are expecting a lot of a headline, no?
Lots of reasons but I'll list two:
1) These documents are historical artifacts like the declaration of independence or the magna carta. They may not seem important now but in 300 years people will care about them A LOT.
2) Redundancy. If the digital records are destroyed or say encrypted in a massive ransomware attack then the UK government can simply reconstruct those digital records using the paper records without having to deal with terrorists and that's a good thing.

Some say Go errors suck: try this refactoring pattern [video]
Many newer Go engineers fall into this trap, use this refactoring pattern to clean up errors so they happen at container startup, instead of waiting for a live HTTP request to fail.

Using this pattern we can extract errors to the earliest possible discovery time, and also help make parts of our code no longer return errors, removing a bunch of if err != nil checks, and error wrapping.

The article quotes both ‘accident’ and ‘incident’ rates and explains the distinction:

> According to LendingTree, between Nov. 14, 2022, and Nov. 14, 2023, there were 23.54 Tesla accidents per 1,000 drivers. Only two other brands had more than 20 accidents per 1,000 drivers, Ram (22.76) and Subaru (20.90). That accident rate also helped it earn the second-highest incident rate, 31.13, behind only Ram (32.90). The difference between accident rate and incident rate is that the latter also factors DUIs, speeding, and any other citations.
Yeah it's interesting that this is debated because we actually have real-world data on this. It's not like no country with relatively high indices of freedom and prosperity has ever instituted strict gun control.
It's a little weird to discount an article because it accurately reports a fact, using well-defined terms. It's getting exhausting listening to Tesla fans re-prosecute the definition of 'recall' any time someone uses the term correctly.

Virtually nothing? I can't think of anything you'd likely get out of destroying a 25+ year old will. There are time limits for most claims against the executors.

They are also planning to keep some number of wills, if you kept say everything over a certain value you'd probably cover the cases you're imagining.
