If the description is correct then the cyclist was going into the space that they could see in front of them, unlike the Waymo. Someone else said that stop signs are legally equivalent to yield signs for bicycles in California. They probably couldn't see the Waymo because it was occluded by the truck, so how could they yield to it.

This is why straight going traffic always has the right of way if the roads are similarly sized, and it's on the turning vehicle to stop and wait at the turn.

I would also hope that self driving cars are programmed to drive defensively and conservatively over trying to shave off a second or two of drive time.

This happened at a former job. Once we determined that the guy looked, sounded, and behaved differently than during the interview process, HR got right on it and he was gone within a day.
Even if that were legal in California, clearly in this case the cyclist did not check properly and should have fully stopped.

I must say, all of this doesn't help with the general perception of cyclists being extremely entitled with respect to ignoring traffic rules. Anecdotally, I see more cyclists breaking the rules (such as by riding on the sidewalk or pedestrian crossings or improper lane changes/turns) than not.

Microsoft was already offering users to upgrade to IE8. Users chose IE6 for whatever reason. Most likely because non-technical users didn't give a shit, or maybe they were stuck on IE6 due to ActiveX or other compatibility issues. Google faked a "we will be phasing out support" screen to trick users into changing the browser. All this talk of open source and "open" this and "open" that, and yet they still want to manipulate the user. How about you let the users choose? And if they choose wrong so be it. I guess it is understandable given they are in the advertising business. Maybe Google has others' fooled, but they haven't fooled everyone yet.

That's why the post that started all this expressed a desire to live in a future where people could replace their cars with public transportation as opposed to advocating that we get rid of all cars now. Currently public transportation isn't viable for many people, but it would be nice if in the future it was.

That being said, I think that you are overstating some of the limitations of public transportation. The NYC subway runs 24 hours, allows dogs, I have taken it while transporting 200 lbs of steel before, and it did not stop running during the George Floyd protests (including after curfew).

A few examples: using vmware fusion provides an option to enable nested virtualization

1) running a windows vm from macos, and inside that windows vm you enable and use WSL2 or docker desktop. Both of those windows tools require nested virtualization

2) run a hypervisor such as esxi or proxmox as the vm OS, which in turn launches vms. Handy for simulating infra.

3) run a macos vm and inside that vm, install docker desktop for mac

4) experiment with any qemu/kvm tooling inside a linux vm, such as multipass or kubevirt

Everything above is not possible on modern mac hardware but is on hackintosh

They have no reason to release it to the public. They don’t want to set a precedent. They will show the video to the regulators (CA DMV) and if they’re not happy, they will take action. It’s regulation working as intended.
Was it ever gone? Much of the world never got over this phenomenon, even if the western nations in the aftermath of WW2 kind of did, and even that was arguably just an anomalous period of time. The open questions for us now are, can this anomaly be turned into something truly permanent and if so how, or is regression to the historic status quo basically inevitable?
Waymo and Truck in intersection both heading in opposite directions. I dont get where the bike was. It says behind the truck. So did bike run the stop sign and cross into waymos lane because that is way it sounds. Article doesnt state who's at fault.
They did say that the Waymo only braked after the cyclist was 'fully visible'. They won't be releasing the footage on their own.
Cyclists are just dangerous and until we look at statistics we can’t assume that AI does worse than humans in protecting cyclists. As a driver, it took me many years to get into the habit of shoulder checking when turning right from the right lane. I always have my turning signal but to cyclists it doesn’t mean much, they will always try to pass me on the right on the intersection. Cyclists sometimes behave as though they are pedestrians and other times they behave as vehicles, depending on what is convenient. Or that may just be me trying to rationalize their erratic behavior. There are no traffic lights or signs for cyclists.

Off duty police officers? OK I'm wrong it was practically Bastille. They were moments away from making it to the Rotunda, and at that point they could have immediately started legislating and the US as we know it would have ended.

I can name two times in the last five years where, biking, I had a worse encounter than described (though I reserve judgment of fault until more details come out). Including one that required hospitalization, where the human driver decided to drive away.

The frustrating bit about AV discourse is that AVs are held against the standard of a perfect driver. Which I don't actually object to--all drivers should be compared to perfection. But it's enraging when people do so for AVs without comparing against human drivers, which, as everyone should know, fall far short of perfection. And with AVs we have the capability to iteratively improve them toward perfection, while there's no way to do the same with humans.

As I grow more and more disillusioned with modern computing, I catch myself thinking “just give me macOS classic with a few nice-to-haves bolted on, like a modern browser.” (Yeah, I know those nice-to-haves are probably a lot more work than the rest of the OS).
Was the TL in a high cost area, and the replacements junior SWEs in low cost areas? It's likely that they have a set budget for human resource (for lack of a better term), so they're cutting the "high cost items". Unfortunately, institutional knowledge/skill doesn't show up on a spreadsheet.
I see quite a bit of cars not coming to a 3 second stop, they mostly roll at slow speed and never actually stop the vehicle completely.

Do you advocate for 70% of the drivers to be taken off the road?

I think the most critical bits are left out here: “The cyclist was occluded by the truck and quickly followed behind it, crossing into the Waymo vehicle’s path.”

Was the Waymo car turning or was the cyclist? Because if the cyclist swerved into oncoming traffic there’s likely little any driver could do, but if the waymo car was ignoring the possibility that a cyclist was behind the truck that seems like a significant safety issue.
That is a really cool method I would have never thought of. Did he have a lot of experience with this type of thing?
We are already used to it.
Yeah, my reading was that the bike ran the stop sign and then attempted to make a left turn in front of the Waymo as it was going straight through the intersection.

I've seen all of those walkable cities, green cities, etc... For the most part, I think that staying away from driving is a good idea. If we could have cities planned out so that anything would just be a few minutes walk away, that would solve so many problems.

A car-independent society would have many improvements. Even for medium distance travel, we could have trains and such.

Welcome to Wecode
Are we sure the Waymo was turning instead of the cyclist?

The only description is Waymo entered an intersection after a complete stop. “The cyclist was occluded by the truck and quickly followed behind it, crossing into the Waymo vehicle’s path.”
Right the arm stuff is probably in the "it runs" camp. Largely because its SVE, which is barely available, and the code written to utilize it has largely probably been tuned for the a64fx, or maybe the gravaton v1's.

Both of which have considerably different memory and vector size/issue characteristics. So three different SVE variations now, and the previous two show significant uplift when given custom tuning (ex: see gcc -mtune=neoverse-512tvb, vs the custom a64fx compiler benchmarks). Arm put a bunch of effort into creating an instruction set that is microarch agnostic, but then its not exactly worked the first couple tries. Maybe that will be fixed with V2 and all SVE cores going forward.

Public trust is a pretty good reason.
Cyclists are supposed to stop at stop signs, if not stop at least yield. At least in this case (if true), the cyclist followed the truck through a 4 way intersection (assuming it's a 4-way stop), that would put them in the wrong.

Hope waymo releases the footage.
Cyclists are far from the only ones who don't stop at stop signs appropriately. Stand on a street corner sometime and count the cars that come to a full stop. I'd be shocked if you find more than 20% do. Which is all well and good as far as I'm concerned as long as people are paying attention and it doesn't cause an accident.

But if cars that take no physical effort of the driver to get moving again aren't expected to come to a full stop, it seems unfair to expect that of bikes. Of course if you blow through an intersection full speed without looking all bets are off and you probably get what you deserve, but I chafe at the bar being set at a "full stop or it was your fault" way of thinking, especially when the cyclist has so much more to lose.
No offense, but how is it Apollo inspired? It looks, and interacts nothing like it...
This comment is peak 2004 neo-conservatives logic.

Ukraine is fighting a bloody attrition land war in Russia. They are currently losing and will likely fair worse as time goes on.

Mind you Ukraine could have prevented all of this if they had decided not to break the Minsk agreement which would have ended the conflict in Donbas. Instead the US and EU used it to buy for time so they could further arm Ukraine for war with Russia.

This conflict has been an unmitigated disaster for the people of Ukraine. Entire generation of youth killed or crippled. Millions fled the country and may never return.
Every collision is avoidable if you drive the car at 5mph at all times. But that wouldn't be reasonable. If the Waymo description of the incident is accurate, there would be no way to really avoid this accident without significantly nerfing the normal and expected driving behavior of this vehicle. e.g., you would need to not allow a Waymo vehicle to enter the intersection when there is any other vehicle in it as well, which (in my opinion) would not be reasonable at all.

If it drives better than a human (in this case it sounds like it probably did), that's good enough for me.
Oh boy does this resonate! Kind of like chopsticks. Practice and practice but always revert to knife and fork.
Deng Xiaoping was born/raised in sichuan, only his ancestors were kejia. I’m sure if you look at anyone in china’s family tree long enough, you’ll find a lot of mixing, which is about as weird as a German having ancestry from Italy or France. It’s even weirder, as the paternal side was originally from Sichuan moving to GD during Ming and back to Sichuan during Qing.

> Deng Xiaoping himself was Hakka, as were most of the the core CCP leadership until recently [0]

I’m going to not believe your source given how much wrong you’ve gotten already. But even if true, Chinese identity politics are more attuned to region than ethnicity. Southerners also were trusted because the KMT was heavily southern biased while the communists were the opposite. This is why the capital is in BJ and not NJ.

> Hakka is the primary language spoken in TW after Mandarin btw.

No no no. It is definitely Hokkien, a dialect of Min, which is the base dialect for Fujian.

> If you're a fellow Bay Area native, maybe visit Fremont or Richmond District in SF sometime and actually learn about us Asian subcommunities

Is that some kind of Asian American thing? You can learn plenty about Chinese ethnicities in China, why bother doing it in the states? Southern ethnicities are also over represented in overseas Chinese communities given the propensity of people from GD or FJ to go abroad, and then cultures kind of diverge a bit (another reason the CCP doesn’t trust GD/FJ).

Kind of interesting you included the guy who you said loves power but somehow never started any new wars, keep all the other dictators on the list in check during his time in office and ended several long standing conflicts we were engaged in the Middle East and safely and effectively brought our troops home.

He also normalized relations between Israel and its Arab neighbors. An accord that has withstood the current Israel/HAMAS conflict and remains intact.

Now that the guy who loves power is out of office? Putin has invaded Ukraine, HAMAS has attacked Israel, Iran proxies have committed over 150+ attacks on our troops and China continues to threaten Biden with an invasion of Taiwan.

But he was sending out mean tweets, so that makes him "detestable" in your book amiright?

Note that I’m commenting in the spirit of “being ok to dream”, as the article promoted.

There’s only so much creativity available for software engineers to work around the fundamental constraints imposed by the lower levels. Software Engineering being a highly demanded skill, I strongly believe, is a reflection of how inefficient are the interlaces of standard architectures and processes. It reminds me of the Curse of Lisp, which, roughly, states that the reason for its lack of popularity and absence of large communities of developers stems from it being too powerful of a language, when compared, say, to Java. OSes are monstrosities struggling to keep pace with demand. The very concept and handling of the File is limiting and obsolete. It’s not an ideal building block for databases. Another is the fact that we have generalized compute but not storage. Memory and Storage are synonyms, so I imagine the ideal scenario is for both to be a single entity. I mean, the memory hierarchy should be flattened in the future. If this happens concurrently with an increase in capacity sufficient to emulate an infinite tape, then a number of today’s cutting edge software architectures will become relics — memories of a time when computers were not as cooperative and malleable as we needed them to be. The information revolution is just beginning, after all, and I absolutely love the fact that the path forward will be paved, primarily, by the collective effort of a multitude of creative minds, as always. Great article.
