Why didn't this happen in Germany and Japan? Both were born as manuf'ing giants and remain as giants. Compared to many neighboring countries, their labour costs are very high. Yet, they continue to manuf a huge amount of good for domestic consumption and international export. And both countries have very strong labour laws. To an American, it appears almost impossible to fire people in Japan and Germany.
Wow. I noticed a lot of Star Wars content in Rocket League showed up today... and I thought Epic was paying Disney. I guess it's the other way around.
The problem will all of these stats (although some like Waymo are better than others like Tesla), is that the bare number is quite misleading because they compare apples to oranges. Firstly Waymo (and others don't often don't operate in places that they have excluded or they don't know. Humans drive in unfamiliar places (which I'd bet changes the chances of accidents). Moreover, waymo might decide to not operate in some places at all because they deem the traffic/road conditions to dangerous (and I think that's a good thing), however human accidents in those areas (which are by the condition are more accident prone) still go into those statistics.

It's similar for weather, self driving cars might refuse to operate in some weather conditions (I don't think it's by accident that most companies mainly operate in the relatively warm and sunny places of the US), human accidents under bad conditions are still part of the statistics.

And again drunk/impaired drivers also go into the statistics, if we disregard them and humans become safer, than this is not an argument that self driving is safer than humans, but an argument that there isn't enough enforcement around riving impaired.
I wonder if this opens practical opportunities for adversarial hijacking of specific topics.

Indeed, the Tesla model Y is also below 2000kg.

I also think the weight for EV cars should be lowered, considering the better acceleration that EVs have.

Perhaps that will come later.

> Then I remember it's the behavior of drivers that has conditioned pedestrians to yield even when they have right of way.

I similarly have mixed mode of transportation. I'll admit that when walking I will frequently fully stop in the middle of crossing an intersection. Many people do come to abrupt stops at stop signs and from the perspective of a pedestrian it is difficult to differentiate, especially when it is unclear that a driver sees you. I sure am not going to risk it, so I stop, and am sure to make sure that driver sees me. But similarly, it makes me more sympathetic to pedestrians and cyclists and I will approach intersections differently when they are around and do my best to make sure they know I see them. When driving, walking, and cycling you are operating in very different environments despite being in the same place. People tend to do things for reasons and if an action is common within a group it would be naive to not consider why this behavior develops.
I agree with you that better names are always preferable. But type hints also work as documentation. We can have both.

However, in this particular case the undescriptive names are like this for historical reasons. I agree these are not the best names, but are the names used in the literature. If I was working in a physics I would probably use "c" as the speed of light or "kb" as the Boltzmann constant, which are non very descriptive names.
I've read it at least twice over the years and its descriptions of hard-learned lessons, sales tactics, product decisions, hiring, management structures, internationalization, funding, dealing with partnerships, and chasing and reaching break-even are very much applicable to today's startups. Some paragraphs in the book even sound like PG whispered advice in John's ear but obviously the rise of Autodesk predates YC by decades.
Here where I live they've definitely been completely displaced by berries that grow on just shrubs or even less.
This is right, but if you are implementing a formula known in the domain or documented elsewhere, you can (and should) use the letters used in the formula (in this case, b and k1) instead of making up names.
I would never expect a browser extension to work flawlessly with every possible site out there.

I doubt the bar is particularly high and the onus is on the city to create signs/paint curbs to indicate if it's longer or shorter.

As it stands, if there's a red curb or parking prohibition sign already next to a crosswalk, it dictates distance - whether longer or shorter - and there are a lot of intersections with those already that are much shorter than 20 feet - like where fire hydrants often are. If SF doesn't repaint/resign those, then nothing happens.

It's only for unpainted/unsigned areas where the 20 ft rule comes into place.

Proof is in the pudding etc.! I'm certainly curious how well your design & implementation will turn out. Good luck with your project!!
This comment has some errors in it:

1. Exactly Once is absolutely not a solved problem. CAP says nothing about 'exactly once', it's about design choices for your data. But you can do all sorts of side-effectful things when it comes setting the data.

2. Giving up consistency does not mean you "corrupt your data every once in awhile". I don't know why you would say that. Choosing availability means you have to make decisions about how your data becomes consistent, but nothing about that means it is corrupted.

3. Choosing consistency says nothing about "exactly once". Consider this basic workflow backed by a consistent database: request comes into service, service sends email, services goes to store that email was sent in consistent database and crashes, user gets crash back, reruns request, email sent again. Oh so send the email AFTER it's stored in the database, well service crashes after saving in database, same problem.

So the second order question: is it possible to achieve consensus around the idea that a particular moderation line, while not exactly matching a personal interpretation, is reasonable? (eg, I would guess there's rough consensus among HN regulars, for obvious reasons, that dang is doing a good job)

I once talked with a judge who told me "I try my best to be just, but when it's impossible to be just, I have to settle for arbitrary". When refereeing sport, I've found that a very useful philosophy: most of the time when you blow the whistle, there was a clear foul, but sometimes although it's obvious someone fouled it isn't obvious who did. In those cases I just do my best to break the marginal calls evenly for both teams.

(also, as a ref we'd have regular meetings, going over the most contentious plays and coming to rough consensus, in an attempt to ensure that we were collectively providing consistent calls during the season, even if the "ref line" wasn't necessarily what any of us would have had as a personal interpretation of the rules that season)
Strange because if every browser adopts sqlite why not let people use it ? W3c will not prevent people using some tech ? Ofc it won't be standard, until it is? Soon, sqlite implementations may even fork and then we would need standardising.

None of that is germane to the point though. The point was wealth is an asset that a person accumulates through their life and we should expect that younger people on the whole have less wealth than older people on the whole by the simple fact that they haven't had enough time to accumulate the same levels of wealth.

What we should be looking for is information about how each quantile in a given cohort is doing compared to their older counterparts at the same point in their lives. It's not enough to know that people under 40 own 10% of the wealth, you have to know how much of the wealth people under 40 owned in 2000, and 1980, and 1960, and 1940. And how that compares to their portion of the population. For example, we might expect to see a sort of "wealth bubble" around the baby boomer generation, which shows them having an outsized share of wealth at each stage relative to their older and younger cohorts. And we might expect that bubble to be correlated to the size of the baby boomer generation as a population.

What's funny is that so much effort is going into these radar systems for non-autonomous vehicular systems that can be resolved by teaching people how to correctly set their side mirrors to cover their blind spots. You eliminate your blind spots by moving your side mirrors out enough that you can't see the sides of your car without tilting your head a little. You don't need to see your own car in your side mirrors.

https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a15131074/how-to-adjus...

After I got my most recent vehicle I discovered it has a 24GHz rear-facing radar in order to alert me to a possible car in my blind spots. It misfires all the time and alerts me to guard rails and phantoms that don't exist. I don't need it, because I now keep my side mirrors set correctly I know where cars are beside me before the radar knows. I turn it off but now I'm curious if that actually deactivates the radar emitter or just stops alerting me to hits.
About your last paragraph, how does Intel and Global Foundries (IBM and AMD) do it well? It sounds like moaning from a senior business person wants easy mode. This is a new step in TSMC's history: expanding manuf'ing overseas. I am curious how the new TSMC plant Japan will do.
There are plenty of cheap options. You can remove default 12GB memory filter, adjust utilization, and limit price to $300.

On the data source: BestBuy just had the best least walled off APIs and prices seem lower that Amazon, so it is the first.
OK, but there are oceans, on moons. Therefore, ocean.
For me the default is 2560 x 1440. If I change it to 1920x1080 things looks bigger and thus crisper. If I select 3840x2160 or 5K from "show all resolutions" then everything becomes small and blurry.
Just for context, there are ~26,000 people signed in to the LEGO version of Fortnite right now, and it's 11pm Pacific/2am Eastern (there are ~179,000 people on the standard Fortnite). At primetime, there are typically 100,000+ people on the LEGO Fortnite.

I believe based on the description that no one was turning. The truck and the waymo vehicle were traveling parallel to one another, and the cyclist was at 90 degrees. If this is correct the “behind the truck” would mean occluded by the truck rather than following the rear of the truck. If that is true the cyclist and the waymo vehicle couldn’t see one another due to the truck, and both began entering the intersection. My guess is the cyclist was also unable to come to a stop when they saw the waymo vehicle. I think we would need to know a lot more to assign fault though.

I don't know if i'd ever feel good enough to get in an autonomous car if they were just a bit better than the average driver... the average driver is not great.
> The ER couldn't believe that I didn't need and pain meds. I felt nearly fine and was even hungry - apparently I shouldn't have been.

I could not eat for a day when it happened to me. I threw up everything I ate. That’s why my parents suspected some food-borne pathogen initially. I could not feel any pain besides the cramps at that point. We went straight to the ER in the morning when I was in such a pain that I could not put the right foot on the ground. It was indeed an appendicitis but it was apparently still far from rupturing, so it was not quite the last minute. But my goodness was it painful.

Hi, author here.

If I wanted a catchy title for the post I needed to cut the number of LOC as much as possible;)

Joking apart, thanks for your feedback. I agree that usually it's better to have documentation and code together, but in this case since it's an educational project I decided to split code and documentation, and document the code in a blog post.
Everybody here is discussing the car and the cyclist, but I don't see anybody considering the possibility that the intersection design is unsafe. That there is a stop sign is a pretty bad signal in itself, Not Just Bikes made a video explaining this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42oQN7fy_eM
Most of the research I've read around this subject seems to indicate that the important thing is getting actual sunlight exposure for eye health. It is not entirely clear if this is related to the broad spectrum nature of the light, the intensity of the light, or other confounding factors.

You seem to be claiming that light which comes from screens is inherently bad for your vision, which is a very different thing, and which I have not seen credibly evidenced before.

So yes, you might want to do a little more reading about "basic things", or consider sharing the things you're reading with the rest of us.

> We can compare this statistically by looking at accidents per 1,000,000 miles driven of autonomous cars vs humans.

This is extremely limited and really not relevant to the topic at hand. You've marginalized out the type of accidents. Most miles driven are on highways and this is a different environment than urban. The information you've marginalized out is essential for making reasonable conclusions about safety. It isn't important to just know the ratio of TP/TN/FP/FN but more specifically where and when these errors happen. The nuance is critical to this type of discussion and a simplification can actually cause you to make poor decisions that are in the wrong direction rather than naive decisions but in the correct direction.
I recently came across Forth. My journey was:

- Why is shell script more succinct than JavaScript at some things

- How would I do something like unix pipes in JS

- The JS pipe proposal F# syntax

- Tacit programming

- Concatenative languages

I find for a lot of these esoteric programming languages and paradigms, most people just don't have the right motivation to explore them. So we are just stuck with OO everywhere. But once you pull on the right threads and start questioning the status-quo, you really start to gain a deeper understanding and realize why things are so complex.

SDXL actually takes conditioning from either the old or the new CLIP, or both. The malleability of SDXL is not just down to the choice of the new CLIP; the UNet itself is more opinionated.
It's not some perverse feeling of superiority or hatred of walking, but suburbs and cars are easier for families, especially large ones. The dense urban areas in the US tend to have more young and single people.

Wouldn't that require knowing how far down/across you're going to dig? Most mines have a known seam to begin with, but a lot of exploration and geology work comes later when there's a big hole to work from. There's only so much you can tell at the surface before you start.

Particularly considering the rich world of SD1.5 fine-tunes, SDXL leaves so much to be desired. I'm sure it will all be sorted out eventually, but right now, the momentum in the community just isn't there with SDXL the way it is with 1.5.

I'm very lucky apparently, my mid-2012 Macbook air is still my daily driver outside work. At the time, it was the longest battery life, reasonable CPU, ram and SSD, in the thinnest but robust and lightest laptop I could find at 13in.

I replaced the SSD a few years ago, and I don't think the battery would last very long nowadays, but I don't want a laptop on holidays anymore anyway.

I got fed up with osX though, just run Linux nowadays.

SDXL is a more sophisticated model architecture. It has more layers. The CLIP model is bigger.
Very good point at the end; the lower level you go, the broader (and likely more severe) your vulnerabilities will be. I suppose in this case my concerns aren't warranted, or at least not worth placing before more immediate and obvious concerns. i.e., I could write shitty code a lot more easily than Unison could compromise their language and infrastructure.
