I seem to recall smooth scrolling on the Mac having the same basic issue as elsewhere. It takes an instantaneous scroll input and turns it into an animation. Scrolling half lines is fine and all, but I want the scroll position to jump to where it's going; possibly with multiple jumps if my input is over several frames.
It's a question of extremes. With the exception of Zuckerburg, these are professional managers. If they stopped doing anything day to day, their companies would remain successful and they'd keep getting paid. If they delegated their entire workload to their staff - the same would be true. In both of the above situations, the company may see it's performance and value increase.

While the above scenarios reflect the CEO's contribution to an organization's ability to capture value - there is a useful debate on whether these organizations should be able to capture that value. If the organization has a monopoly, then they can arbitrarily increase the amount of value they extract at the cost of other, more productive, sectors of the economy. Over-rewarding organizations and their leaders for capturing value incentivizes such anti-competitive behavior.
As others have pointed out, the 18 minutes include things like stopping the plane.

But I want to focus on where you got your ideas. The placards should be telling you to follow the directions of the crew members, and only if they are not available to assist should you do anything.

Here's the relevant US law, from https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/14/135.129

> (d) Each certificate holder shall include on passenger information cards, presented in the language in which briefings and oral commands are given by the crew, at each exit seat affected by this section, information that, in the event of an emergency in which a crewmember is not available to assist, a passenger occupying an exit seat may use if called upon to perform the following functions:

> (1) Locate the emergency exit;

> (2) Recognize the emergency exit opening mechanism;

> (3) Comprehend the instructions for operating the emergency exit;

> (4) Operate the emergency exit;

> (5) Assess whether opening the emergency exit will increase the hazards to which passengers may be exposed;

> (6) Follow oral directions and hand signals given by a crewmember;

> (7) Stow or secure the emergency exit door so that it will not impede use of the exit;

> (8) Assess the condition of an escape slide, activate the slide, and stabilize the slide after deployment to assist others in getting off the slide;

> (9) Pass expeditiously through the emergency exit; and

> (10) Assess, select, and follow a safe path away from the emergency exit.

Notice the phrases like "in which a crewmember is not available to assist" and "Follow oral directions and hand signals given by a crewmember"?

That is not at all telling you to ignore the stewards or pilots, and I think it's very bad advice.

You (as a passenger) have received nowhere near the training as the crew have in how to recognize possible dangers, or to judge when it is appropriate to stay on the plane vs. leave.

If you plane crash lands on an airfield, and you see no smoke, fire or other dangers, why leave the plane? Can you tell if fuel is pooling up near overheated brakes? Probably not. But you know who can? The fire fighters who don't want passengers keeping them from dumping loads of water and foam onto the scene.

It's also risky to evacuate. People hurt themselves going down the slides.

From their FAQs:

We are a small team, so it's critical for us to be laser-focused. As a startup, one of our key priorities at this early phase is learning, and right now, we're focused on the following questions:

What are the key features we need to get traction on any platform?
Are our assumptions about our eventual business model valid?

While we'd love to support users on Linux and Windows, adding those platforms doesn't really help us answer those questions.

If I am driving my car, climb out, and let it drive, then I'm still going to get in trouble.
So, let's say the person who put the car in a situation where it broke the law is responsible but a more generic and severe level. Rather than speeding, it would be reckless endangerment which is what I'm guessing the charge could be for me climbing out of a moving car.

Ah, I think I see. The concern is the web app not clearing the access token from the URL that a user accidentally shares? That or maybe URL logs of where a user has accessed would leak an access_token?

This makes sense, and I think is compelling enough. The "code" is protected by some complicated effort in Cognito to make the code single use. (Right?)

Thinking of my hypothetical, I don't think there is any real protection from a compromised client. This is data that you want to give to the user, and you have to do that through the client. But the redirect has to be followed by the user's client, right?

To that end, you are probably still fine doing the code to token exchange using the web browser directly? Just not through the address bar, and instead with a post to the oauth endpoint. You can set the cookie locally, but no need to have another webpage involved.
The built-in Gigabit transceiver cores, which you'd have to use for the PCIe protocol, are connected to very specific IO pins on the FPGA. If the PCIe slots on your mainboard aren't already routed to those pins, then the FPGA will never be able to "bypass" the regular PCIe or Ethernet interfaces. Conversely, if they are connected to those pins, then the regular PCIe and Ethernet interfaces won't be able to use that PCIe slot. So no, your security concerns are unwarranted.

I have never heard anyone use the term "raw serdes" for hard transceiver IP cores.

Many companies has the last two intermixed, some devision create support software for the business and some create value generating software. Think about a bank, creating the system for the back office is not the same as creating the HFT system. Sometimes consulting and in house product is also intermixed. In short, the distinctions are correct but it is not about the organisation, more about the division in this organisation.
By that logic, every operating expense and capital expenditure is also zero, because if it doesn't make money, a company won't purchase anything.

Unlike the NHTSA tests, the Euro NCAP tests include tests of pedestrian, cyclist and motorcyclist protection - both passive protection to mitigate injury in the event of a collision, and active protection to prevent a collision in the first place. Performance in these tests count towards the overall 5 star rating. My understanding is that NHTSA is working on preliminary research into the issue, but they're a clear 15-20 years behind Euro NCAP.

A lack of visibility regulation is the biggest problem in current vehicle design in my opinion. A 5' (152 cm) tall driver should be able to clearly see a small child standing a few feet away in front of or to either side of any vehicle allowed on public streets. Any vehicle modification compromising that should be strictly prohibited.

Steep financial liability for pedestrian/cyclist accidents for not only the driver but also the vehicle manufacturer or anyone involved in modifying a vehicle would also help.

It seems like the hypothetical question of whether this Maestro project is legally dubious hinges upon whether it counts as fair use of Linux APIs and code, which are copyrighted by various Linux contributors and provided under the terms of GPLv2.

This makes me wonder, what license was Java provided under, and how was Google's decidedly fair use copying of Java APIs not in violation of it? Did any of the court proceedings address this?

Furthermore, what are legally defensible types of fair use redistributions of GPLv2 code that contradict the license terms? Does it include redistributions of portions of GLPv2 code under a different license that contradicts GPLv2? How about the Linux ABI?

The fair use question may take precedent over whether or not Maestro was written from scratch.

It'll produce calls to React.createElement provided with: the tag name, props, and children. That's all JSX is.

> but that's not usually enough in the context of a larger React application (eg, they often import non-ts files)

React and JSX don't require you to import non-ts files. If RawJS's nascent ecosystem picks up momentum, people might start importing non-ts files in RawJS projects (e.g. css modules). My point is that there's nothing special about the RawJS api that allows you to skip a build step, and conversely, there's nothing about React that requires Babel (assuming you're already using TypeScript).
Now you’ve got to have a 75KW of grid storage available for these peak use cases for every car.

Quartzite currently has 120 charging spaces. 100x increase boosts that to 12,000 spaces. That’s all the parking at the Mall of America. Mind boggling. 150KW for each spot, and that’s 1.8GW of power. To put it in perspective, one of the three Palo Verde reactors produces just 1.4GW. Mind blowing.

Fuck ‘content creation’ on mobile phones.
I like mobile phones for two reasons, 1. because it is a phone and 2. because I can use it for authentication stuff.
The rest is all focused on consuming and giving away your data.
Car safety is an interesting one, because most of the 'safety innovations' we employ today were invented as 'factory options', not as a result of regulations (which were later used to make the features mandatory). Most economists evaluate safety features as 'luxury goods', usually employed in high-cost vehicles before migrating downmarket.

The question how valuable consumers perceive safety features to be, and what their rate of adoption would be; additionally, which ones would they choose? Two interesting examples are seat-belts and air-bags; the former is in the thousands or tens of thousands of dollars per life saved, and the latter is generally estimated to be in the millions of dollars per life saved. Was mandating the air-bag the optimal way to use that money, or did the government commit statistical murder (a term often used in the field).

> think even diehard libertarians would admit that "regulations work" in the sense that using the government's monopoly on violence to force companies to do something will cause them to do said thing. The debate is whether enacting them is better than the alternative (eg. due to regulatory capture).

That isn't really the debate, because we had that debate and decided it was (see seatbelts for an example). Though I guess literally every issue could technically be relitigated and debated constantly ad infinitum, so you're not technically wrong. But we didn't listen to people who said "if you want seatbelts required, just stop buying cars that don't have them".

What we see now, for the most part, are individuals who disagree with our consensus, but that's to be expected no matter what we had ultimately decided. So in this case, "it worked" is shorthand for "it successfully got us closer to achieving the goals we decided on"

Academic honesty is a big topic right now. It's a trashy headline, but the story itself is definitely interesting.

Its true, that a browser engine has a higher resource usage initially - it can easily hog 50-100MB without any content being loaded, but seriously, thats not much of a concern anymore these days. On the other hand it provides a great programming environment for web devs with many bells and whistles (which arguably might not even be needed for certain electron apps).

What concerns me more is what web devs actually do within that environment - it's almost like many devs have lost a basic sense of resource management, like memory comes for free, gets garbage collected anyway, so why should I care.
Many electron apps are overly shiny in appearance, backed by tons of graphics and animations, but in fact are lousy managed under the hood. I am not quite sure if this is a direct effect of using a GC language, or if Javascript+HTML in particular makes it too easy to get quite far without some comprehension of inner works of the browser and the machine underneath.
This is also a pain with modern webpages - I really dont get it, why a browser with 8 tabs opened can easily grow to several GBs after a while.

There are a few counter examples - electron apps that do heavy lifting while still being nice to your RAM and CPU. Sadly thats exceptional, not the common case. I tend to blame sloppy web devs here.

Buried deep in the FAQ, you have to take it out of the case to use wired CarPlay on USB-C iPhones. That is a real bummer.

> Clicks for iPhone 15 Pro (and models that use USB-C) only support fast charging while Clicks is on your iPhone. At this time, the USB-C connector will not allow for both Clicks to be connected to the iPhone and allow for data and charging. This means using wired CarPlay or transfer data will require you to remove your iPhone from Clicks. Listening to music via Bluetooth and connecting to CarPlay wirelessly will still work with Clicks installed.

You might learn something. If you don't laugh, you might be too serious. See a professional.
Remember, that power is voltage times current. You can increase voltage to push as much power as you want through any wire. This is the reason why overhead lines use such high voltages.

Now, the limitation is the insulation of the wire. The insulation will determine how high voltage you can use and when you increase voltage, the insulation requirements grow very quickly.

The fiberoptic can transfer more power, just not for the reason you think it can.
I don't think you read the Interfaces section properly. Rob is not claiming go invented interfaces.

If you want to level such a charge that he is rewriting history, you need to take special care yourself in representing his views accurately.
CPU-local could work, but would give up the possibility of static type verification. Agree passing around context can be tedious, but Rust currently doesn't have a way to implicitly pass context (although there have been some proposals along those lines).
This was my initial reaction, why have an entire case when it could be attached via magsafe. I wonder if it could be made to swivel/slide out of the way when not in use. Membrane keyboard could be super thin.

But also.... no, I don't think I need/want this. But a cool design exercise.
In theory all it would need to be is a tiny Bluetooth keyboard with a MagSafe attachment and it would be functionally the same!
>No freedoms are being taken away [...]

>These fictional people who would love to work for less than $7.25/hr are free to do gig work that nets them less. They are also free to panhandle on the side of freeway off-ramps,

Being unable to work in a employment relationship, and forced to do "gig work" and "panhandle" doesn't count as "freedoms are being taken away"?

>The removal of the minimum wage would simply be a gift to employers taken from the pockets of actual workers. Businesses don't just pay the minimum wage out of the kindness of their hearts; to pay that wage is code for "I would pay you less if I could."

This is a case of fabricated options[1]. The possible outcomes aren't: a) worker makes $5/hr and b) worker gets makes $10/hr (the minimum wage). Sure, in some cases the employer might grumble but ultimately stump up the extra $5/hr, but it's also possible that the employer lets the worker worker go instead, automating his job or having his work shipped overseas instead.
