Our first Model 3 from 2019 was leased with FSD, which was definitely underwhelming enough to barely ever turn it on. We drove from southern Germany to Venice Italy without even thinking of using it once.

When the leasing contract came to an end, we got the refreshed model 3 from 2024, this time without any driving assistant, just the plain normal car. And I haven't missed any of it, just the park assistant was nice because now I can't park it on the side of the small European streets first try, but I'll learn eventually.

It was a horrible deal back then for 5000€, now it's more expensive and hasn't gotten any better.

> That a court makes a legislature obey the laws that were written

My qualm is that the legislature is a representative body. Where-as judges making these decisions are political appointments, often serving for life, and individuals have drastic ability to interpret & rule to their own interpretation. Maybe their decisions get checked, eventually, or maybe they are used to build yet more onto the immutable unchangeable pile of precedence that judge's ruling establish bit by bit without possibility to reassess. Laws change, but in case law, rulings are forever.

If we could rely on judges to produce the same conclusions as one another, that'd be one thing. But we have enormous power to change and alter laws, how they are interpreted & executed. And in America people bringing cases can specifically target the exact judge they want. The Federal Justices conference has recommended procedures be changed to stop this horseshit, it's been an ask from Democrats repeatedly, but Texas for example has outspokenly said they will not make any changes, will continue to allow exact court shopping. https://archive.ph/sm4Ma https://www.keranews.org/government/2024-04-02/north-texas-f...

The judges are incredibly powerful in this system, and are increasingly world wide using incredible bias.
> There are lots of cool things that probably shouldn't used by people operating heavy machinery. Phones for example.

I will tell you straight up that a Tesla model Y on FSD 12.3.3 is a safer vehicle operator than a human being using a phone. Period. No qualifications. Under all circumstances.
Home Assistant can definitely do this. I just now successfully got my HA connected to an Aqara Zigbee button (which, hilariously, only briefly functioned when I was using it with Aqara's garbage hub).
I should have clarified. There's a large number of apps that are:

1. taking info strictly from SQL (e.g. information_schema, query history)

2. taking a user input / question

3. writing SQL to answer that question

An app like this is what I call "text-to-sql". Totally agree a better system would pull in additional documentation (which is what we're doing), but I'd no longer consider it "text-to-sql". In our case, we're not even directly writing SQL, but rather generating semantic layer queries (i.e. https://cube.dev/).
This is short sighted.

People have been saying similar about the cars purchased in 2021 because they sell for well above asking. As 36-month leases start coming due the prices of those cars is normalizing back to where it should be.

All of the boomers that refuse to downsize and plan to die in their homes are going to do the same with the housing market, but in a more spectacular fashion that causes the market to crash.
My favorite thing about Vala personally is the wide range of native libraries you have access to because of its compatibility with GObjects.

There's a great documentation website that has everything located in one place also, which makes development a breeze: https://valadoc.org/
I think everyone using this product should be asking themselves why we don't have an objective measure for the quality (or lack thereof!) of the product.

With every new release of FSD, there are people quick to say it's a breakthrough, and amazing, while others lament it doesn't nearly do what it says on the lid.

Why are we putting safety critical systems we can’t adequately measure on our streets?! There are people who confidently state that Tesla's FSD is already better than humans.

Where's the data?! Why isn't it open? Why can't we build an objective measure for effectiveness and safety of each of these releases?
There are places with accessible taxis, Ubers, and public transit where people with DUIs still have their license. Not that a suspended license would prevent them from driving anyway.
Knowing both Italy and Germany, they are 2 different things: Italy is messy, Germany bureaucratic.
Both are bad. But the fact that Italy is “known” to be messy, and Germany “known” to be “efficient” is what is perplexing.

Germany is the hell if bureaucracy, and is getting messy.
The "sponsored ads on your own name" extortion racket really is the worst.
Controlling inflation will hopefully be the main discussion around the next election, I am tired of watching the political theater around small side-issues and then paying $8 for milk and $6 for peanut butter. Why is our labor becoming worth less in real goods? Why is life expectancy decreasing? Can politicians address issues that affect every single person every day?

I make good money in tech but it still feels like more than 4k/mo (in California) is what you need just to cover rent and basics (car, internet, phone, groceries, etc.). I have no idea how people working minimum wage jobs are surviving.

Fun anecdote, in the mid-1980s, I was bored at work and wrote a similar simulation in Pascal running on a Vax (11-780 if I remember well), and displaying on a tektro (emulation probably). I discovered after a bit that every time I played with it, all other users wondered why the Vax was suddenly frozen (not sure exactly why, probably the serial I/O) ... Oops.
Or, in inflationary times, people are spending their money today because it will be worth less tomorrow.
> Apple could have worked in multitasking in classic MacOS if they really wanted to

They did, and they couldn’t. Most users had some code running that patched system calls locally or globally or that peeked into various system data structures, and all applications assumed the system used cooperative multitasking. Going from there to a system with preemptive multitasking would mean breaking a lot of code, or a Herculean effort to (try to) hack around all issues that it caused with existing applications. I think that would have slowed down the system so much that it wasn’t worthwhile making the effort.

Having said that, MacOS 9 had a preemptive multitasking kernel. It ran all ‘normal’ Mac applications cooperatively in a single address space, though. Applications could run ’tasks’ preemptively, but those tasks couldn’t do GUI stuff (https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Ca...)

I used to gather up the credit card application forms for Brand A and mail them to Brand B in their prepaid envelope.

Tesla's "Full self driving" is a driver assistance system, a.k.a smart cruise control. At no point while using it are you supposed to stop driving, you simply stop providing control inputs to the vehicle.

Systems where the human is not directly operating the vehicle are referred to as autonomous. You may also see them referred to by the SAE level system as L3, L4, or L5, each denoting autonomy in successively larger parts of the driving space.
calling opinions "low effort" seems to suggest that everyone needs to be an expert in anything they talk about. I keep coming across this in technical circles and I find it discourages honest sharing and harms psychological safety
I made a build system, and it turns out that if you have dynamic dependencies, you can implement both.
My devil’s advocate response for that would be that Tesla as the first mover on the market gets to call their product whatever they want.

Is a “garbage disposal” a device that can dispose of all garbage in your sink? No, all it can handle is light food scraps. But the inventor named it a “garbage disposal” not a “light food waste processing device.”

To me it seems stupid that so much of the debate after all these years is about the name. I think we are beyond the point where the name matters.
If your self-driving car lacks the scene understanding to notice a kid's about to run out from behind that truck, chasing that ball - safer to be on the freeway, where there are no kids chasing balls.

Or if your self-driving car struggles with tight corners, or complex junctions? You won't see many of those on the freeway.

On the other hand, if your self-driving car suffers random failures to stop, unexpected swerving or a propensity to hit into stationary objects - I agree lower speeds would be safer.
Some people can be good at their sport of choice and not have an aesthetically pleasing physique while others can be good and have an admirable physique. Anyways, it seems silly to focus on Kelce and not all the players who received or ran for touchdowns that game and, coincidentally, have great physiques such as: Hardman, Scantling, Jennings, and most notably, McCaffery.

This is just a body positivity spiel. The main point of the article is also inherently ridiculous, comparing bodybuilding fitness influencers to people of an entirely different sport makes no sense. How GQ has fallen, from spreading self improvement tips, to shaming people for having six packs.

Indeed everyone is there. Except that no one is arms in arms with anyone - that was the point I wanted to make. The immigrants mostly live segregated along with their peers, and you rarely have the "melting pot", especially not at the lower socio-economic scale, from what I can see.

And that is not good for fostering a collective spirit. The order-abiding nature of Germans collides with the people from country that are more used to bend the rules, so everyone is stressed and unhappy.

I guess it's what you call immigration made in Germany.
I can't speak for polkit, but in the absence of rtkit the gid/uid limits set in limits.conf work just fine even over a portal. I honestly never understood what was allegedly gained by moving that logic from one place to another. (For that matter the analogy with polkit and group permissions works for a lot of things.)
The people that hire data analysts do.
In theory, those homes should start going down in value once people start selling because you can buy less home for a $2,000 per month mortgage payment. The market's weird right now because a lot of people with low interest rates can't afford to sell and buy something comparable.

I'm very happy that Paris is making their city safer and more pleasant for the people who live and visit. Whenever you visit an area without cars and trucks, you can physically feel the difference. Hopefully, one day, all of our cities will feel like that.
yes, read the books (twice).

It seemed like a tough book to adapt to television and I think they did a great job considering the challenges.
There isn't much repair to be done anymore. It's not like these "Geek Squad" employees are opening up your iPhone to diagnose and fix a problem. They are simply salespeople.
At this point, I think that Intel and AMD have designed processors that are hostile toward security and process isolation. The amount of work required by an OS designer to work around the default insecure and leaky behavior of these processors is staggering. Worse, there is always the temptation to optimize performance by turning off these mitigations.

Perhaps that's why I enjoy working on microcontrollers and firmware. Yeah, there are potential CPU attacks on these, but it's much easier to manage mitigations, and these mitigations don't come with steep performance penalty trade-offs.
I don't know if competence is overestimated compared to the willingness to persistently pay attention and simultaneously remember that it takes approximately 3 seconds to go from happily driving along to stopped in the highway in a wreckage wondering if your family is still alive or if you'll ever walk again.

Which is to say, the risks of driving have become so sanitized, that we think it's something that is easy to automate. Arguably, if all road lanes were made 18 inches more narrow, we'd have a lot of the same effects. You have to pay a lot more attention in a narrow lane than one that is super wide. Generally though, humans are very competent drivers when paying attention and patient.

The other part, it's hard to be patient given how much time is spent travelling via car and stuck in traffic jams. People get used to zooming around at 40 ~ 70mph, combined with the over-confidence of from the illusion of safety (all the road signs, extra wide lanes, road markers, obstructions removed from the road)...

I think it just combines to a place where humans are poor drivers because they become impatient and stop paying attention all the time. It's like that first day of work, where everything you do - you have to think about incredibly hard. Eventually it all becomes 'auto-pilot', and this is encouraged by the road infrastructure; even to the extent that we think it's an easy problem to automate.

Who said anything about finite-domains?
Everyone I know from anywhere on the political spectrum would consider it honorable to pay for your mom’s surgery in the way you described. I’m not doubting your experience, but I don’t think it represents most Americans or even most right-wing Americans.

I think the rest of your point, about Americans in general not trusting the government to do things efficiently or competently, is true though.
Ahahaha what?!? That can't be real. The only time I have ever had it brought up in a context of leadership was in the boy scouts - and the lesson was about determination, support, etc. in survival situations... Not shipping product lmao

On the boomer front, it's hard to say because it'll play out over 20 years, and there's a genuine supply shortage. There's also a chance a lot of their kids take the house over and sell something less desirable.

Same here. A lot of artists and a good chunk of the recording crews from before the early 1980s are dead and have been for decades, and the only ones getting the money are the record companies. Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Jim Croce, Stevie Ray Vaughan, all of them have been gone for thirty years or more at this point. Not even their kids or some sort of charity managed by their estate get any of the money. Piracy of their albums is denying wealth from graverobbers, really.
They made a shelter out of their rowboats and survived by eating seal and penguin meat. They didn't stay very warm at all.

> Controlling inflation will hopefully be the main discussion around the next election

You're conflating inflation with market gouging. Why would your local grocery store drop the price of milk? What's the incentive? You probably haven't stopped buying milk, I bet none of your neighbors have stopped buying milk. In most of the country you have at most 2 grocery chains that are probably mega-chains, and they have no incentive to compete with each other.

What you're seeing at this point isn't inflation, it's market gouging and unless you're onboard with the government either breaking up these oligopoly's or setting market prices, nobody running for office is going to be able to "fix it".

The US middle class has always been divided into homeowners and non-homeowners.
What people here are missing is ASD is a natural part of humanity and has always been with us. Loose correlations treating it as a "disease" are wrong. One day our thinking will change from the ableist "what is causing this and how can we fix it" to modern ideas of accepting autistic people as just regular people and giving accommodations as needed. We are not going away, ever. There's no "Fix" to this the same way there's and should not be a fix to being LGBTQ.
Thanks. It's neat being able to visualize them, and the 3D display's actually pretty cool looking for all the different functions.

The Fractional DFT part though, doesn't seem to do anything no matter the function chosen. Firefox 125.

Edit: Nvm, figured it out. Have to visualize from the top down to see the Fractional DFT portion. Haven't seen many visualization systems where each orientation shows a different type of data. Actually a pretty neat idea from a UI perspective.
The author went in with a negative attitude opening with hate for the CEO and then proceeded to diss the product based on how it "felt like it was about to" do something bad rather than what it actually did. It seems that the author has already decided that it was bad before trying it and then decided to confirm their bias based on vague feelings.

I find it extremely biased and lacking in substance.

I get it though... Elon does deserve a lot of hate so I guess the HN crowd is gleefully cheering out of schadenfreude whenever someone says something along the lines of "Tesla bad".
> The prosecutions were a result of a fundamental fault in English Law. I've covered it extensively here [0,1]

If you mean the prosecutions' /outcome/, I agree the presumption of correctness of computer behaviour is problematic. Though this is a rebuttable presumption and it seems very odd that the prosections included no successful rebuttal that I have seen. Perhaps such cases were the ones the PO chose not to press??

But what I meant by prosecutions was prosecutions. Being actions of the PO rather than the court, they cannot reasonably be held to be a result of the law.
Chinese industrial policy is quite a bit more sophisticated than just dumping money and subsidizing industries. They only do that in the beginning. They first subsidize and erect barriers to outside competitors. It then becomes a chaotic place with many domestic competitors. They then lower (or eliminate) the subsidies and basically it becomes survival of the fittest among the domestic producers. This is when domestic producers innovate and become more efficient. Once they are sufficiently strong and competitive, they start taking down the barriers to foreign competitors and also start exporting. This is exactly the playbook they used for EVs.

(BTW, this isn't new or Chinese. Both Japan and South Korea had done versions of this. Japan originally learned it from Germany.)

All this to say by the time Yellen or anyone has started complaining, the subsidizes are gone already. The Chinese companies has been incubated into very competitive companies.

The US is starting to reconsider the idea of industrial policies now. The recent op-ed by Marco Rubio suggests even the traditional free-market party is rethinking it.
What a crap article - I couldn't disagree more with his fearful conclusion.

FSD on my Model Y is fun. There's no reason to fear because it's extremely intuitive to take over if it makes a poor decision - any resistance on the steering wheel immediately disengages Full Self Driving.

I've used FSD for thousands of both highway and city miles, and like any new experience, you shouldn't judge it based off of your first few tries.

After a short time, you learn which scenarios it handles with ease (highway driving, clearly marked roads with other traffic it can follow), and which scenarios it struggles with (dips in roads, emergency vehicles on shoulder, large open intersections without clear markings, construction zones).

FSD is basically magic. I'm a software guy, and I'm shocked how well FSD handles an insane variety of situations.

In my local town, I feel I'm quite a bit better driver than my FSD. However, when I visit an unfamiliar city, FSD often handles new situations better than I would have. We're living in the future.

Also, there's several comments here about how timid FSD can be merging or at a four-way-stop or similar; very true! Yet you just tap the gas pedal to let it know it's safe to proceed, and FSD takes it from there. Or just manually accelerate, and FSD will happily handle the steering while I handle the speed.
I don't think any of my phones, iPhone or Android, have had hardware-related issues during music playback. I have had:

- faulty 3.5mm jacks on certain headphones causing intermittent cutout

- buffering pauses for remote libraries/streaming (eg. YouTube or Spotify)

- Bluetooth/codec issues, where the proper codec isn't negotiated and "headset" mode stays on

That being said, I don't stream FLAC and my library is <10,000 songs. Maybe you've got a big library?
> mostly don't care

While I agree with you in general, I believe there is a substantial group who knows that in their particular case the company will be as effective or even more effective if they WFH. Why? Because they worked in (usually) open-plan offices before and they work in their own spaces now and they can estimate how much time was spend on work and non-work activities.

For example, I communicate on Slack quite often, we have huddles as needed - but only when needed. If someone like, they can have smalltalk on dedicated channels and socialize as mach as they want - but only with the ones who explicitly choose to do so. In other terms, you control your time and the execution of your tasks much better.
