Don't spout off about something you're not knowledgeable about? Not trying to be rude it just seems like if you don't know how they work you shouldn't be declaring something a failure because of a poorly conceived test.
My r7g.16xl absolutely smokes my maxed out m2 max 16". I had to spin it up as I was sending my m2 into thermal shutdown. Task that takes 2.5 hours on the m2 max takes 8 minutes on the r7g. I'm crunching about 16tb of log files streamed from s3 and collating to parquet. I even ran it from the office on Ethernet on Amazon's corp net and it was still much faster on CPU and net. I even tested it with everything locally on disk. Not even close. The r7g is cranking along at 5.2ghz all cores all day.

I've been using Chakra UI components in Plasmic for around 1 year after trying to do this in Framer and UXPin Merge. Plasmic is what Framer was hyped to be but did not deliver, it's the best I have found.

The downside to Plasmic has been the community size and therefore lake of support so I hope Plasmic going open source will resolve these issues.

These types of tools can be overlooked by traditional siloed Design and Development, and is best suited to hybrid teams were the power of designing with code components can be realised.

Plasmic was like discovering a Gem, a rough diamond that a hybrid open source community get the chance to shape.

I highly recommend this product!

What hasn't gotten enough attention here in my view is how astoundingly basic this exploit is.

You've got a single curl request to a web service that for magical reasons is running as root. There's no SELinux/jails/etc, and no logs written for this request.

The way the article describes Curry style typing seems like dynamic/optional/gradual types to me.

> Curry-style types is when a system of types is applied that is not part of the semantics of the language. This is what Clojure has in core.typed. The meaning of a Clojure program is not dependent on it passing the type checker---it can be run without it. The type checker simply alerts you to type errors in your code. Note that you could consider your type checker to be your own head, which, as flawed as it may be, is what most Clojure programmers use. The types could be anywhere outside of the language.

I'm not familiar with Clojure/core.typed--how is it different than TypeScript (or JavaScript with the type checker in your head)? It seems that if the type check fails it does so statically, but often it doesn't fail statically but rather at runtime. I can see that is a distinction but understanding this difference doesn't offer much practical value.

I don't want to speak out of school, because I've never tried to boot up Jepsen for anything, but in theory the purpose of publishing the code for the experiment is that one can replicate its findings in your own environment to see if it impacts you. Yes, I'd guess that custom FUSE will be a PITA to configure but my experience with the AWS RDS setups for kicking the tires on MariaDB is (ahem) just money versus costing huge amounts of glucose

I'm not sure why 'perplexity is bad' means 'all LLMs are nearly useless.' Do we use Warwick Davis as the reference height for humans?
I question the wisdom of belief in the existence of the devil - at least in a form that can be beaten to death. "Ultimate evil" and "susceptibility to haymakers" seem mutually exclusive. This sounds more like the confluence of blind hope that cosmically-horrifying things can be defeated and rationalizing murdering another person.

>knowing that there are superior open-source options

Most do not know however, nor do they desire to know, and likely, they will never know. If you want to make something actually better for someone who's not you, blaming them for not making it better is hardly a solution.

Also stands to reason that, hackernews is popular with people in the industry, maybe not the actual decision makers, but, certainly people with more pull than most. It's important to express how things ought to be for that reason alone.

> its obvious from reactions here that further thought and discussion is needed on the matter.

No, its obvious from reaction here that commenters here have the completely misguided belief that experts in fields somehow are unable to consider the little pet topics that each of those commenters come up with.

Waymo's typical accident, from the CA DMV reports, is this:

- Waymo vehicle comes to a required stop before entering an intersection.

- View of the cross street is obstructed when stopped at the stop line.

- Waymo advances into intersection far enough to see cross traffic.

- Cross traffic is detected, and Waymo stops.

- Trailing vehicle rear-ends Waymo vehicle at low speed.

That's happened at least half a dozen times. There's one location in Mountain View where there's a tree in the median strip that obstructs the car-top scanner when the Waymo is stopped at the stop line. Two rear-end collisions at that location so far.

As far as I know, no Waymo vehicle has ever entered an intersection and been hit by previously occluded cross traffic. Many human drivers get T-boned in such situations. So this is a good design.

One way to prevent those minor rear-end collisions would be slightly different brake light usage.
When moving slowly forward, likely to stop suddenly, and there is another vehicle close behind, flash the brake lights rapidly to get the trailing vehicle to back off.

Drivers would understand that.
I believe this is related

As someone who drives a car with adaptive cruise control, that's awesome. My car leaves a safe following distance and sometimes people behind me expect me to react to their tailgaiting or aggression. Having an indicator that clearly indicates the car is driving automatically should reduce aggressive driving over time.

Also I worry sometimes that other drivers will think I'm boxing them in, but it's only the car leaving a safe following distance and is completely automatic. I want to say.... "It's the automated driving function" to those people.

> Do we really need event-driven architecture, serverless functions, hundreds of micro-services for a web application that barely have 1k concurrent users

This is verbatim the thinking that led to needless overengineering - focusing on number of concurrent users as the only requirement and metric of success.

You may require event-driven architectures, serverless functions, etc to meet business requirements, regardless of how many concurrent users you have.
Hosting providers have been managing uninterrupted power and airconditioning for decades at reasonable costs. There's options for every budget, from the cheapest (Hetzner, OVH) to more expensive (Equinix Metal, Deft, etc).

I'm not sure why this trope keeps getting peddled again and again. Is it obtuse career-driven thinking (someone's salary depends on pretending not to understand?), or am I really getting that old that there's an entire new generation of engineers not aware how hosting was done before 1000%-markup "cloud" providers entered the industry?
I think I see where you're going, but I don't think I've quite made an argument of the form that I am claiming is fallacious. Reality is complicated and it's hard to even speak English without relying on categories at all. The complete rejection of categories is enough of a departure from standard reasoning that I'd have a lot of work to do to show that it actually leads to a non self-contradictory theory. But such an exercise is kind of same kind of pedantry that I'm arguing against: an attempt to apply math to English language and then demand everybody follow your math. It's just not useful to do that. I can't really use philosophical arguments to prove that philosophy is not useful.
During the 2016 election it was hilarious to see that any mention of the name “Hillary” in any context would immediately receive downvotes and a bunch of negative comments.

Especially on Twitter it was just madness. Some guy with like two followers showed his tweet history (predictably with little community engagement), but then he posted a comment mentioned her name and instantly got a bunch of vaguely-related replies.

That people fell for this just blows my mind.

I have friends in Australia that still hate her for - you know — all the unspecified things she’s done. They can’t list any of them of course, and have no real idea of why they so viscerally hate a retired foreign politician, but they do.

When the opening line is "Just days after Tesla was forced to recall nearly every car it ever made over safety issues involving its Autopilot system..", it's hard to take the rest of the article seriously. The "recall" is actually the NHTSA pushing Tesla to change how they monitor drivers. "The fix will be deployed to roughly two million cars via an over-the-air update that should prevent owners from tricking the system." from TFA's link.

The linked LendingTree article actually says "Across 30 car brands analyzed, Ram has the worst drivers. Nationally, Ram drivers had 32.90 driving incidents (accidents, DUIs, speeding and citations) per 1,000 drivers from Nov. 14, 2022, through Nov. 14, 2023. Tesla (31.13) and Subaru (30.09) were the only other brands whose drivers had incident rates above 30.00.". Without further breakdown of accident/incident types and segmentation by gender & age, TheDrive's article is just wild speculation.
Yes, of course the closeness to the color of traffic lights was considered. Like do you think these people are fucking idiots? You can read more here: https://wiki.unece.org/download/attachments/75532788/AVSR-03...
I don't know if there is a "they" there... many systems are autopoietic and don't need an organized "they" to reify themselves.

In my view, the world makes a lot more sense when I look at what systems do instead of the intent of the system's builders.

This view makes conversations difficult, because when we point out that, for instance, the US has a larger prison population than any place, ever, or that the US has the largest and most complex modes of killing masses of people, it can feel very much like we are in wingnut territory.

This is doubly complex because often I find myself talking to people who aren't merely comfortable working from the premise that the putative intentions of systems are the only legitimate way of discussing these systems; some folks identities are so entwined with those systems that any questioning of them becomes an attack on the legitimacy of their identity.

The US police system can be a draconian monstrosity and, at the same time, it doesn't need to be a "they" organizing it. It's sufficient that we identify strongly enough with that authority such that we can't look at horrible things without questioning our own view of the world.

In other words, yeah, I agree- these systems sucks, everyone knows they sucks, and I too feel like a nut when I question them.

The world has gotten better for me as I've been able to progressively give up the idea that I'm the one misunderstanding what is happening, and that there are some clear injustices endemic to these systems.
No, it doesn’t mean it has failed, it just means it alone is not sufficient. Just like how a century of american prosperity wasn’t solely due to gun rights.

Like many other laws and policies, 2nd amendment alone is not sufficient.

The better question to find the answer to your query is.

Is removing the 2nd amendment and gun rights going to magically save america and stop its marching decline?

I don’t think so.
Yes, and the reasoning holds; an individual decides to do that. There’s a name on that check, a specific person who authorizes the transfer of funds. How could you ethically stop a person from authorizing that check?
Theoretically, you can.
I mean, you could use blockchain for this and create a viable solution. I don't think that's the only solution, or even the best solution in this case, but, worth considering the idea at least.
It'd be interesting to see more data from this. Were the accidents tied to the specific vehicle? Or to all the vehicles requesting the quote? Also, age and other demographic breakdowns would likely be telling. Seeing RAM at the top gives some clues where that might lead.
Interesting topic. I think it depends on intent. Whats presented in the article i personally see morally problematic as you pretend to be dumb with the intent to not have to bear some load, relying on the goodwill of others, disregarding the value of their lifetime.

However, if you hide a feature you have in order to not be solely judged by it, its more difficult. I.e. a prince hiding his lineage or an artist hiding his craft.

A good measure is probably, to ask yourself if the other would feel betrayed if you told the truth.
> if I remember well it entails signing with the new signature a version signed with the old one, so it's complex.

Wait no of course it's the opposite, specifically you sign the new certificate with the old key, if I understood it right (https://source.android.com/docs/security/features/apksigning...)

If someone knows how the sky of world of warcraft is made (and to a lesser extent the ground of warcraft3 which I think is a clever use of marching squares), please let us know, Ive been wondering for 10+ years. It has an incredible amount of features (day, night, clouds, moon, stars, etc), it's gorgeous, light, updates beautifully every other frame or so and no, it's not rendered-to-texture. Well pretty sure it's not. It's so smooth, you dont see a poly nor a texel. It also runs on a 2002 computer. A marvel of tech-artistery.
> other tests like end to end testing help catch the remainder.

End-to-end tests are unit tests, generally speaking. Something end-to-end can be captured within a unit. The divide you are trying to invent doesn't exist, and, frankly, is nonsensical.
Who came up with this? All I see a bunch of twitter users reposting it. Is it from something? Other than twitter I mean.
Of course it did. The question or debate is not if unconditional money helps, but if it's better than alternatives which may be cheaper, such as food credits. Even middle class people would benefit, like $750 to buy groceries. Inflation obviously will erode some of this new purchasing power.
Betteridge’s law applies here.

The underlying problem is not “the cloud” but whether your organization has a handle on managing complexity and costs. 20 years ago, the same “architects” were telling everyone you had to build clusters of enterprise Java application servers where no stack trace is less than 200 levels deep. I certainly saw plenty of apps with millions of dollars in hardware load balancers, expensive licensed Java app servers, Oracle HA databases, etc. which were comically outperformed by a Linux box or two running PHP and MySQL (which usually had better reliability, too, since there was so much less to break).

Cloud applications can be simplicity wins or losses depending on your business culture. If you keep it simple, you’re running a couple of Lambda functions or something like an ECS Fargate container, S3, RDS, etc. and saving a ton of time versus both the places rolling their own Cloud-ception K8S platform _and_ the people running a fleet of full servers in their own data center. In both cases, it’s a question of whether you’re adding complexity because the business problems require it or because it’s more fun to work on / looks better on your CV.

It doesn't seem to me that "preserve the physical records" or "destroy the physical records" are the only two options.

How about "stop having the taxpayers pay directly for the preservation of the physical records; and instead donate them to a museum / archive / historical society, who will preserve them for their own reasons"?

In general people in Miami are less friendly, cliquish and unreliable compared to other parts of the country. Even other parts of Florida. They’ll show up an hour late and act like they’re doing you a favor by showing up.

The drivers are erratic and irresponsible.

Everything is a scam or hustle of some kind.

The cultural institutions like museums and libraries are extremely poor even compared to mid-tier northeast or midwest cities.

And finally, the public schools are mostly awful and even the universities are a tier below cities of similar size.
> Last year, the Department of Justice launched an investigation into Tesla and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found that 322 frontal and other collisions resulted from Autopilot disengaging. As the recall mentioned above highlights, it was too easy for drivers to leave Tesla's Autopilot on its own and completely relinquish control.

We need less technical fixes for things like this and more legal consequences for drivers who are found to have used the system negligently. Want to act like a clown in your self-driving Tesla? Great, you're still responsible for what it does and now you can deal with a criminal conviction, same as someone driving drunk.
As a general rule, if I see a finance announcement on the news, I immediately assume the opposite is true.

There's a hard physical limit (speed of light) on latency that we can't do anything about. Higher bandwidth deep space communication gives us the ability to recover more science data from robotic missions, so it's worth working on.
Is it the way it is for plumbers, electricians, physicians, lawyers, etc? I'm seriously asking and ready to accept a "yes", but the reality is a lot of other professions have certifications and controlling bodies. I wonder if, when being interviewed, plumbers have to jump through the same idiotic hoops developers have to suffer.

My wife used to work as a nurse, her interviews were usually: do you have your certification paperwork? When can you start? No white boarding, no " tell me about a time you had to deal with a very difficult patient".

Yeah yeah jobs are different but ffs, if I had a freaking paper to show that would save me 4 rounds of interviews I would be so happy.

And yes, "innovation" may suffer. That's the usual argument, to which I say: good. I think we've reached a point in the history of technology where we need to chill out, take a deep breath and untangle the f ing mess we've created over the past decade.

Great illustration of lying with statistics. This is objectively true, but the conclusions are murky at best. Urban vs highway miles, geographic distribution, driver demographics all almost certainly have more to do with this metric than the car itself.

Ransomware attacks will become next to impossible because the data will be stored in quartz glass by "...permanently changing their physical structure". So this means that the data is written permanently and cannot be modified, and thus, cannot be held for ransom unless the physical hardware is held for ransom.

Anyone familiar with this, can you please explain how much data can be stored per cubic centimeter? Not sure if this is a good measure of data density, but since we are talking about crystal and layer stacking I couldn't help but think of the physical size in 3 dimensions.

That also addresses your question "why not purple", as that was one of the options they explicitly consider.

Specifically where turquoise was preferred over purple:

1. In the central visibility field, people are more sensitive to turquoise than to purple

2. purple has poorer visibility/discriminability when accounting for color vision deficiencies

3. Studies on colour preferences reveal bluish colours to be the most positively rated worldwide
No. It's a performance optimisation and generally makes things faster. The only reason to disable it is because of Spectre security stuff.
