"known unknowns" and "unknown unknowns" are concepts that came out from the project management world. It's not a thing that Rumsfeld invented.
Lmao, that's an Ad for Apple. It has nothing to do with supporting the gaming industry itself.
I hope it’s sarcasm. I have git logs to look at. You’d think Boeing would have more than that.
> people in my area are dangerous as shit at roundabouts

That's cause roundabouts are terrible. The design goal is for cars to merge into the circular lane without stopping. In order to do that, drivers need to be looking in the direction the circular lane traffic comes from. But there may be pedestrians crossing from the other side, which most likely won't be seen until it's too late.

You can make the pedestrian crossing safer by moving it away from the circle, but then you've added inconvenience if pedestrians want to travel straight along a road, or want to travel to the corner properties; and pedestrians will likely not follow inconvenient paths (statement of fact, not a judgement). You can build up fences and what not, but that's a lot of expense and people are going to circumvent those too.

A signalled intersection, with responsive pedestrian buttons, and reasonable car detection would probably have better outcomes for everyone in less space.
It just comes down to the cost-benefit for the bad guys. As long as it is profitable it won't stop.

Yes, many big businesses may stop paying since the executives don't want to go to jail. Realistically if they are that big they can probably come up with a legal argument to justify the payment though within the mess of exceptions that would have to exist if this became a thing.

In the end the bad guys are just going to adjust to target smaller companies that would be under the radar for being caught paying.

In the end it doesn't really matter what the dynamics of it end up being. If it pays off to ransom, it will still happen, and I think there will always be a way to make it pay off for quite a while.

The only real solution is better security that makes it unprofitable to even attempt to breach a company that makes a random possible.

Threatening legal consequences for the victim is a very sideways way to go about achieving the goal of deterring the bad guys.
I recently got back into Objective-C (first did in 2002) doing some (for hire) framework work on an app that was built in it originally. And it's very refreshing! I've done a lot of C in between then and now, and I almost have to keep reminding myself that it's C under the hood, really.
The assumption is that victims will be less likely to payout, increasing the cost of attacks for criminals since they'll need to expend resources on an attack with a lower chance of payout.

Ransoms are not a net win when victims don't payout.
In aviation, a manufacturing problem that goes uncaught is an everyone problem. QA should catch it. Ideally software and procedure should back stop things. In the Alaska Air case the pressurization alarm went off on two previous flights, which got the aircraft limited to non-ocean routes, but it was still allowed to fly. These alarms were likely due to the door unseating on prior flights, the dynamics just weren't enough to actually eject it off the rails.
There is no one else supposed to be in the same room as the test taker - for obvious reasons that they should receive no help on the test in any way.

Some households -- especially if you have small children, or live in a small house without the luxury of separate rooms, noisy neighborhood, etc. -- may pose a challenge.

But outside those scenarios the candidate should know to dedicate one room to themselves for the duration of the test and preferably keep it locked from inside and inform others in the house not to disturb them for those 2 or 3 hours.

I am surprised to see this simple requirement -- that there should be no other person in the video frame (which will be audited for it, both manually and through automatic processing) -- is considered draconian? How? Are test takers expecting to take tests in rooms where anyone else can casually walk in, move around, etc?

To be sure there are other quirks like no bathroom breaks, no glancing away from scree, no mouthing the words as you read, no covering your face or sometimes no resting your chin on your hand as you think etc that all can become very tedious and stressful sure.
Sorry, but “ Children didn't play in city streets because it was a death sentence.” is just wrong. Perhaps not on the major downtown arterials you describe, but there’s ample historical record of kids playing stickball and similar games on urban streets.
I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this but... people who work on scientific computing or engineering and value their time choose Matlab and Mathematica over Python. Source: I've used Matlab and Python extensively, Mathematica a little (never Julia so I don't know)

I gave Python a good shot but gave up. A beautiful language but what a waste of time trying to get any simulation going.
This has more detail than I would have expected, but I see there’s virtually nothing about the reentry bus. From what I’ve read, that’s where most of the secret sauce involving accuracy comes into play.
> Of course, then Google will go bitch about it to "daddy", and the US will probably start a trade war with the EU.

If Google can do this, certainly Apple can do it too. Biden doesn’t strike me as having much appetite for a trade war with the EU (he famously has a lot of soft diplomacy skills instead), but if Trump were reelected? Maybe that’s something Apple’s holding out for, who knows. Wild speculation on my part.
I am confused by this comment. I think you’re suggesting that there should be legislature, or executive order to support a ban on a chemical?

Israel isn’t targeting lone Hamas fighters with these bombs, they’re targeting large Hamas facilities, most of which are buried underground.
you mean a test track? how does that apply to the real world that would indicate that you actually know the rules of the road and can follow them?
How do you measure any of these improvements?
I feel the argument this article lays out fails to account for the fact that the data most likely has value for the attacker outside of the organization being ransomed. Banning ransomware payments will only force the attacker to utilize other revenue generating avenues instead. Maybe it’s selling PII to other people directly, maybe its selling trade secrets to a competitor or the highest bidder or maybe its just outright using the stolen data for personal gain (think stolen CC numbers) or maybe they just resort to straight up blackmail of each individual person. It maybe easy to get a quick lump sum payment from an organization, but I don’t think its much harder for them to target the individuals of the data they collected.
Yes, they can quit any day they want and that company cannot impose any restrictions on them.
But what if there's absolutely no documented process involving those bolts at all? Its perfectly reasonable to ask what the process is and who is responsible. Boeing acknowledges they don't have an answer here. Is it because they never had a process for those bolts to begin with? You can't document following a process (or not following one) when there is no process at all.
I read it as legislation
SCOTUS wants Congress to do its job of making laws, instead of having an unconstitutional fourth branch of government exercises all the powers of the other three branches. The system of checks and balances you learned in school has become a farce, with agencies making rules with the force of law, prosecuting violators for breaking those rules, and adjudicating those violations in their own administrative court systems.
You weren’t required to eat it. I’m not sure what is so difficult to grasp here.
What possible insight would they gain knowing what someone did both as a youth and more than a decade ago? I'm a 1000% different person than I was in high school.
> Quite baffling that success is measured in how much you raise.

It's a proxy for size of company, and often one of the two public ones (the other being the number of employees you can count on LinkedIn). It's not perfect, of course; there's always a Zapier which raises 1.3M and then grows sustainably. But for VC funded companies, this lets you compare them, if not perfectly.

I think everyone would agree that revenue, ARR, and profitability are all more important. But those metrics are rarely shared for private companies.
I think there is lots of crazy ideas that need to be built, the next job I find I will probably just rely on tools like these for the fun of it.

I've got a few that I will chime in later with. A simple one for now, is put a couple buttons next to the job listings in your UI.

The way to improve a process includes interviewing the specific employees involved in the issue to formulate process improvements.

I've been the subject of such an inquiry, and while uncomfortable (facing your failings) it is also incredibly valuable when done correctly.

And this is how you end up with the IP laws we have today.

This sucks man, at least this only cost you potential earnings (that it sounds like you weren’t pursuing) vs any actual money.

I wonder if in theory, should you want to, there’d be any legal recourse.
I was briefly confused by the headline. How am I supposed to know what kind of forever chemicals are in the food if they take it off the packaging?
I'm sorry - of course you can. my problem is that switching back and forth I internally get them confused. and I start moving the target language to be closer to the host. while this might be my failing alone, I've seen this happen quite a bit in other language design projects.

FYI / tl;dr

After about 5 years of back and forth and then not hearing from a prospective publisher about completing his book project Todd Klein decided to take all the work and publish it on his blog here as a series of articles (some previously posted that were part of the content he was building for the book).
I don’t think it’s acceptable. I also don’t like the built-in guardrails and closed-sourcing approach to AI currently to stop the robot from saying the n-word, so my problem isn’t with American exceptionalism so much as using “safety” as a means of limiting innovation is trite.

> Steve hated industry standards.

> The only time he ever said anything else was when every web site in the world ran on flash and iphone couldn't do flash.

This is wildly inaccurate. Flash was never anywhere near that popular and it wasn’t an industry standard. The industry standards were HTML/CSS/JavaScript, and sites that used those were way more common than sites that ran on Flash. We’re not talking a lot more common, we’re talking at least 30–40x as common. Flash-only sites were an annoying but small minority.

The iPhone was the first phone with excellent support for the HTML/CSS/JavaScript industry standards. It literally changed the web development industry it was that good. In 2007, mobile sites tended to sit on m.example.com separate from the main site, and use WAP/WML. The “really good” ones had a severely cut back plain HTML version. None used Flash, that wasn’t even a factor on mobile at all.

Then along comes the iPhone with Mobile Safari. Practically overnight, people were asking for “iPhone-compatible” websites to be built, which were really just normal websites with CSS media queries to offer a mobile-friendly layout. That’s what Steve Jobs was talking about when he was describing a “desktop-class web browser” in his keynote speech.

And because WebKit was open-source, all the other smartphones started using it and got the same capabilities. In the space of a year or two, the mobile web transformed from something virtually nobody wanted to something useful and fun – all using industry standard HTML/CSS/JavaScript.

Ignoring the fact that Flash was terrible quality, which other people have responded to, that whole era of the iPhone is practically defined by Steve Jobs betting hard on industry standards instead of Flash and other proprietary stuff.

Nice, I've just started building something similar in TypeScript. I wasn't a big fan of the Langchain model. I wanted to develop with normal functions in an imperative manner so the code is very easy to read. I'm also using decorators to add the required functionality to workflow steps so I can support retries, and build something like LangSmith on top too.

So far I've been able to make a little workflow that can complete real simple infrastructure requests in JIRA. Pick the right repository, make the changes, compile, and push up the merge request.
No, not every stern response you see online means it “struck a nerve”.

> An outage is understandable
I know it feels like being pedantic and missing the joke, but "just give me the EXE" is a terrible bug, not a feature request. Distributing unauthenticated, untraced OS-level binaries is just dangerous in the modern world. Safe app distribution requires either elaborate sandboxed runtimes (browsers) or carefully curated and maintained lists of known-safe binaries (app stores, distro package repositories).

We can't be doing this "GIVE ME THE .EXE" anymore. Those days are gone.

Even building from source is questionable, but at least there it requires that the installer be part of (or at least adjacent to) a community of developers who can be expected to have the expertise to notice and recognize bad actors pushing code.
Man, there's an opportunity here. Split the difference and certify previously licensed drivers with good records in a simulator perhaps?
I for one have used gpt-4 extensively and gotten a ton of value from it, but recently cancelled my subscription because local LLMs have come so far, and Gemini is on par or better than gpt-4 for most of my uses. I suspect I'm early in a big wave of similar cancellations, so the pressure to release gpt-5 may be mounting.

> Another reason we know it is that Apple has (arbitrarily) forbidden app stores that aren't open to third parties. Even if Epic wanted to make it a first-party only store (why?), they couldn't.

That's a circular argument. Apple is arguing (maybe wrongly) that Epic won't follow the rules. You can't refute that argument by saying "but the rules say they have to follow the rules".
There is nobody in any leadership position at Tesla that doesn't credit Musk for making Tesla viable.

An idea without that execution is completely useless. There have been and are thousands of ideas for electric cars that never made it or will make it past a prototype because they lack the leadership skill Elon has motivating people into making a viable product.

> I don't care about the private space industry

This just means you don’t have much foresight or you don’t care about humanity. The private space industry is what lets us launch satellites to do things like observe the climate (macro and micro), find and prevent people from getting lost at sea, get people to the space station, launch telescopes, etc.

Saying you don’t care about the private space industry is as dumb as saying, “I don’t care about the private computer industry” 50 years ago.

> like "Elon derangement syndrome".

There isn’t really any other way to describe the willful disregard of two huge influential companies led by the same person.
I think if you understand the fundamentals of how computers work and can debug anything to figure out what is causing a problem you will be valuable for a long time. most people either don't have the requisite knowledge to do this, or just simply lack the drive and curiosity to figure out weird bugs. also, there are senior engineers with 10+ years exp. at the company that I work at that don't bother to google or do any real debugging before asking a question in slack. don't be one of those people.
I applied for a job with the FAANG that rhymes with "pajamas on" and their interview process was dumb as well. I told them so and got the interview ended right there. Good riddance, I suppose.
So they don't have process records for work on an airframe. Yikes. That is worse than I expected.

If I take over your country with guns and bloodshed, I suppose the wealth I gained from doing that is legitimate?

There is not a single billionaire who has made all that money fairly; wages do not rise with inflation, environment; tax dodge; etc costs are carried on to the consumer as well. What sort of world do we live in when people like you think it's okay for things to be like this.

I don't have a problem with people being successful and accumulating wealth, but I do have a problem with the ilegitimate and corrupt practices involved in accumulating billions and trillions.
That isn't all what the SCOTUS wants. The SCOTUS wants Congress to do their job and not an "agency".
Yes, it is all based on assumptions of the dynamics of the cost/benefit calculations of the ransoming-business which I am not familiar with.

I did not see anything in the article that took that into account. I fear the lawmakers may not familiar with those dynamics either.

My personal assumption is that the cost is very low for the bad guys.

This may make a dent in their profit margin. But is that really worth it for the position we'd be putting victims in?

If my assumption is correct, it just going to shift the ransoms to those victims more willing pay without being caught and I'm not sure that is the a desired outcome (or maybe it is). The big companies may be targeted less if they don't pay, but is that really solving the problem?
There's a lot of ways to signal this.

With a left turn arrow, that should never be green when the turn conflicts with a pedestrian crossing that's on Walk. An arrow is an indicationn of a protected turn, where there should not be any conflicts.

But many intersections allow for an unprotected left turn, if safe, on a green ball in the forward direction. Sometimes there's a green and yellow arrow next to a green and yellow ball, with red on top in the middle of the two: you can usually make an unprotected left, if safe, if the green ball is showing, and if you have a green arrow, it's a protected left. I've also seen similar with a flashing yellow arrow indicating an unprotected left is permitted, if safe.

Of course, it's possible that the intersection was miswired or misconfigured. If the direction with the green arrow also had a green ball for forward, it may have been that the right side of that direction was supposed to have a Walk, but the signals were tragically misconfigured. I have experienced a case where wires were mixed up, but in the case I'm aware of, a bike button was configured as a left turn occupancy detector for another approach; inconvenient, but not dangerous.
