> This happens way too often, and I'm genuinely curious why.

It's probably what you're paying attention to.

There are lots of shocking occurrences that most people don't notice. Or don't want to notice. Death is among the things we'd rather not think about. Unseemly death more so.

Consider how many US military deaths are suicide every year.

https://dcas.dmdc.osd.mil/dcas/app/summaryData/deaths/byYear...

Or how many people are killed by police in the US every year.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_killings_by_law_enfor...

Or consider that suicides are more common than either firearm or car crash deaths.

> I am more afraid of cyclists and scooters than of cars.

You shouldn't be. Cars are a leading cause of death across the world. The likelyhood of being hit and killed by a cyclist is, I don't know, very small? Nobody even collects statistics on it: it just doesn't happen often enough to register.

> like you have just tried to murder them

I think a lot of the anger comes from the fact that a lot of people, maybe even most people, are just not temperamentally suited to operating heavy machinery in mixed-use public spaces every day. They'll be half asleep, or on the phone, or distracted and daydreaming, and then the visibility in a car just isn't that great, so you don't have good situational awareness. So cyclists get a lot of bottled up anger from all the times a car has knocked them down, or they've come a hair's breadth from death, and the driver is still halfway thinking about what they're going to have for lunch as they drive off, wondering about the cyclist that 'came from nowhere'.

You also can't really just follow the rules of the road as a cyclist: if you have right of way, but the car driver doesn't see you, you're still dead. You have to operate under the assumption that cars can't see you even if you're literally right in front of them.

I'm wondering if you were talking to someone else but I can't figure out who.

My question was pretty simple.

How are you guys (commenters) drawing a connection between what the author quoted, and the assumption that the person being quoted opposes the building project?

What context are you using to correlate those?

Here's a logic diagram to help. Assume P1 is true, since that's what he's saying:

P1: indigenous lifestyle is not skyscrapers.

P2: skyscrapers can be built by indigenous people.

C: indigenous people can't build skyscrapers

The above is nonsensical. Your conclusion is in direct opposition to the premise.

Introducing this person's quote to the article was totally irrelevant unless you're aware of some context that is missing from the story.
That they have nationwide systems does not surprise me.

But that it's a global system does surprise me. Their main market should be the US, but EU data protection is legally mostly incompatible. I am pretty sure they have major violations.

For FAANGs that's not news and they have their cases with the commission regularly. But for pretty old brick and mortar restaurant business I am suprised.

Edit: Of course the central recipes are globally standard. But otherwise I'd expect the logistics more regional. Especially for Australia mentioned in the article.

>When driving manual you already unconciously know the gear you’re in.

You've never been fender bumped by a driver who forgot he was in first gear/reverse, thought he was in neutral, and just let go of the clutch without the brakes on? Happened to me twice.

I often find myself checking I'm in neutral before letting go of the clutch during complex parking maneuvers, because I can't trust my memory on where I last left the gear stick.

On my old 2003 Fiat Panda, the gear shifter was placed quite high up[1], closer to the side of the steering wheel rather than down in the console, so you could tell with your peripheral vision whether it's still in gear, and also easily flick it into neutral with just your pinkie finger without taking your hands of the wheel. I miss mechanical UX like that when a lot of though was put in stuff like this, instead of every car being a copy-paste of the same barren generic platform, void of mechanical interactions, and with just an iPad in the center, designed to be as cheap to manufacture as possible.

>I fail to see how doing this during hours you are paid by the company, on their equipment, and for their specific operations...wouldn't be considered a "work for hire" in copyright law.

As a fellow Norwegian now living in the UK: That term is so archaic and unusual in English that odds are quite a few people won't know it at all (In 24 years in the UK I don't think I've ever heard it used)

For the non-Norwegians: "Torpedo" in Norwegian has adopted the 1920s US slang for a hit man / hired gun, and in Norwegian it's in common, contemporary use, though more often for threats and violence than outright murder.

Completely reasonable for this to be said in conversation with a friend but not taken seriously enough to write it down.
Children may not get a choice in whats on their plate, but they do have a choice in what goes in their mouth. Schools cannot force a child to consume anything, and the kids are free to toss all the food given to them into the trash, and they do, but not totally, some of that food appears in places other than the trash.

So now what?
Because they need them for their stupid election campaigns, surveys and crap like that.
The problem with the GDPR is the overhead. If it was one line that said "you can't sell data on people without their explicit freely given consent" then anybody could comply with it by simply not selling data on people.

But it's a long piece of legislation and some of the requirements are time-consuming to implement even if you're not doing anything nefarious. "It is bad for innocent people to incur uncompensated costs" should be a primary principle in creating legislation.

> If I opt out, I'm opted out, or there will be big fines for them.

They're getting sued. If the plaintiffs win they'll have to pay. It's not obvious why this is worse or any less of a deterrent.
While I dislike how little practical enforcement there is against the pervasive surveillance by ad-tech companies, this is one of the things that GDPR works wonders against:

No sane company would want to participate in such a scheme in Europe. Both the seller and the buyers would be on the hook for massive GDPR fines, and unlike a tech company where the privacy violations might be contributing 50% of the revenue and which could thus easily consider a 4% of revenue fine once every few years a (small) cost of doing business, car companies can't afford that.

General Motors had a global revenue of $172 billion, net income $10B, and the data sales are only a small part of that.

The intermediate company that's buying the data and reselling it to car manufacturers could potentially try to get away with it, because their entire business model depends on it, so they have little to lose. Just make sure to keep no money in the company because once the DPAs learn of the business the company a) has no business model because they will prohibit continued buying/selling of the data b) is likely to be bankrupted by the fine that might well exceed their entire revenue (for smaller companies, the fine isn't capped to 4% of revenue, the limit is 20M EUR).

For the insurance companies that would be buying this data I'd imagine it's even worse.

And this sort of egregious thing is something I can see DPAs actually enforcing, because it'd be much more clear cut than tech companies using non-compliant consent banners.

Edit: And I forgot the most important thing - if they don't put it into their privacy policy they're even more screwed, and if they do put it there, a customer who finds it can get it enforced by sending an e-mail (or in Germany, letter, because some DPAs don't accept e-mail) rather than finding a lawyer willing to start a class action.
"siphoning data" is a pretty bold claim. you can't just type those words without being very specific.
Boeing also has very privileged relations with various three letter agencies.
Those are ridiculously fine grained tasks (or very precise estimations)?

Anything that takes less than an eg half an hour, I would probably just do, instead of making a ticket and an estimation. But I guess some companies are more bureaucratic than others?

Yeah I guess a lot of the orchestration can be effectively handled by terraform, I get what you mean regarding cloud primitives. This is my next step to seeing how this can work in a production environment. Instead of an ingress you can use ELB, for instance.

I guess this means your environment is very "native" to a specific cloud however and not as easily transferrable.

One thing I did like about k8s is that it's easy to self-host with microk8s but tbh, I think in production you'd be using a cloud provider's managed k8s (e.g. AKS) anyway.

Looking at how to attach/configure a ElastiCache, RDS, or some EFS to a project also.

What's the best way to runtime configure an image when you create it as an instance? I couldn't see any options on ops instance create for environment variables or anything like that but this also seems like, weird - IE you wouldn't give a VM environment variables, but with a normal EC2 instance there's an agent that handles this sort of thing. Would you have to bake the configuration into the image? Also how does one output the ELF for the image? Is it just the file of [image name] in ~/.ops/images ?

Or is it the case that terraform should build a correctly pre-configured image as part of the apply process?w

Always good to have other options, of course! I do appreciate the minimalism. This is exciting :)

The terraform docs example uses GCP, perhaps if I figure out how to do it on AWS I could PR the docs with an example.

At that stage where my questions lead to more questions.
In a dysfunctional company where "the code is the documentation"? Yeah.

If there are knowledgeable people to lead the process, and the transition is done appropriately: it is 100% possible and I have done multiple times in my career.

The burden on rewriting shouldn't lie in developers alone. And before someone quotes Spolsky: not every software is Netscape Navigator.

I have a similar thing with the google photos app.
Almost every day it asks "You photos are not backed up, enable it now".

Clearly 100 images is enough to build a good profile.
I'm not a trained killer, but I have watched some movies. To account for residue, just place the firearm in the corpse's hand, point in a random upward trajectory and pull back on the dead person's trigger finger. Optionally, replace the spent bullet in the gun's magazine.

"look this person wrote on twitter 2 years ago that it won't be suicide"

a solution I imagined for this was some sort of point cloud emitting off of everyone's body, so we would have a point cloud based rendering of what happened near someone, could reveal a lot about human interactions
I enjoyed the thread the other day, just want to point out there are some basic misunderstandings here - informational entropy and thermodynamic entropy in fact _do_ have a deep connection (Edwin Jaynes famously wrote about this). The key idea is that both are measures of the uncertainty of a system with respect to some distribution over it.

Saying that a real-valued state has infinite information in the computability sense is nonsense - information is a property of a _distribution_, not a _state_. You could talk about the Kolmogorov complexity of a real-valued state, but even this is generally not infinite, as anyone who's written a program to generate the digits of pi can attest.
so all suicides are murders?

There is always perceived cost cutting of outsourcing.

There is always "we fired 20% of the people, now their workload is on your shoulders or you will also be fired".

There is always "here is a book titled 'use agile to deliver twice as fast' now the deadline is in 3 months instead of 6 or else".

The only defense against that is having more options.

Daily reminder that there is no evidence that the processing of food makes it harmful.

I see your point, but perhaps I just don't see the path our society takes to make it a positive thing.

Your last point is the one I worry about most, since it is very likely these technologies will be controlled by large entities with their own interests and biases. There is also not a "correct" answer to many questions, and differences of perspective mean some parties can simply never agree. We already have truth at our fingertips yet it does not help.

To your earlier points, I think unwinding labour from our society will be an incredibly difficult thing to do, though I agree is the root of much evil and would love to see a society that does not rely on labour participation to survive.
That would be fantastic. Unfortunately it's not true. D1 doesn't support the one database per customer approach unless you have just a handful of customers that you can set up manually.

You have to create each database manually using wrangler or the website. Then you have to create a binding for each database in wrangler.toml so that the database becomes accessible as a variable in your Workers code. Then you have to change your Worker source code to do something with that variable. Then you redeploy.

The issue is that Workers cannot create or list databases. There's no API for it.

Sounds like the actual problem is that landlords can engage in "greedy rent seeking behavior" at all. Allowing people to opt out, but only if they can afford a 6 figure downpayment and keep 7 figure amounts of their wealth parked in a single non-productive asset that's highly correlated with their job prospects is an imperfect solution to say the least. Everyone deserve protections from "greedy rent seeking behavior", not just the people who are in a position to buy.

Bear it mind that Celt marriage wasn't necessarily about increasing the population, they weren't monogamous. It was about sharing and dividing ownership. They were merchants (mostly), women could be richer and earn more than the man they married, and one type of marriage handled that case (because the divorce was handled differently depending on who owned/earned the most). Marriage might have been about reproduction in civilization with huge gender gap, but for Celts it do seems it wasn't.

Just look at causes for divorce in Celtic law, disrespect is clearly more represented than fertility. Maybe it was due to the polygamous nature, idk.

Celt priests were druids and did not left a lot. Druidism was an oral, masculine tradition, handled birth and death, as well as medecine. They might have been involved, but we can't know, because they left no texts. The laws we found however were quite clear about administrating a marriage, and did not require the presence of a druid. I'm not sure Celt gods can represent civil aspect like greco-roman gods did (justice, city, household). At most they were fertility and healing, but like I said, marriages weren't about fertility (they even had concubinage contracts, for how children outside marriage will receive resources).
