It's weird that we keep seeing this happen and work but then it isn't more popular. Government services are typically inefficient, but so are private monopolies for almost exactly the same reasons.

If anything, workshops have been part of home designs since time immemorial. I consider my "garage" to be fundamental to my home ownership - it's a space dedicated to repair, cleaning, crafting, and maintenance projects. The idea that you are supposed to give up an entire room of your house just to park a car is weird to me.

This would not be an enforceable problem anywhere I have lived. This seems like a symptom of underlying overcrowding issues specific to this area rather than some sort of criminal phenomenon. If these areas have way more cars than parking spots, that strikes me as a failure of zoning - too many tenants and not enough transit for the style of neighborhood.
The law canada passed that was similar, but Google stayed and Meta pulled out - is really killing the smaller independent media who relied upon that.

Even PCPs sometimes have to go home with the knowledge that someone died, and (being human) wondering if there was something else they could have done.

Credible argument? You call baiting and entrapment credible? Those articles don't pop up on their own from chatGPT, it takes effort. You need to know the first phrase and the title to prime it. And then it only works once in a while, not every time. They even complained in the lawsuit that the cases where the model doesn't regurgitate it hallucinates articles as from them and they don't like that either.

NYT itself is full of fluff and derivative news, and suing for expired news that only have historical value now. It's just flexing their power to corner AI.

We can't copyright everything. Some things are free: letters, words, sometimes common phrases, also, ideas. An AI is entitled to learn everything at the level of ideas, even from copyrighted works. They just need to paraphrase or rewrite as Q&A the copyrighted material before training to avoid identical replication.

Copyright is already too big as it is, don't allow them to make ideas protected as well, it will have a chilling effect on us too, not just AI models.

I don't understand this problem. The sidewalk is city property. You cannot block it. Lose the big car or park it in the street. EV charging is not a hardship excuse.
> hardship overhanging the sidewalk imposes on the handicapped

Some of the neighborhoods in question are in off the path areas and on steep grades. I wonder how much this is a legitimate problem or a "gotcha" justification.
> He made multiple posts on Nextdoor and to my surprise many individuals came to his defense and supported him parking on the sidewalk.

Similar experience with local Facebook. People truly don't understand why anyone would be upset with someone parking their car in a sidewalk.
Yeah it's going to be a lightning rod for copyright trolls if it gets popular. Ultimately that's a good thing. There's precedents that need to be worked out, and if they go the wrong way, consequences that will need to be lived with that hopefully restore common sense. It's not that different from the Napster days other than an infinitely weaker case for the copyright trolls.
This is just another arrangement of quarks. It's not a new fundamental particle, and is fully consistent with the standard model.

It's again the same opportunity cost, though. China has to invest a lot of money just get access at scale to the same class of chips as the rest of the world. That money could be used for actual innovation instead.

> The policy doesn't even succeed on its own terms.

The policy doesn't succeed only if you limit your thinking on the chip industry and ignore the overall strategic context. Reducing China's access to latest & greatest is only the proximate reason for the export controls, with the overall strategic competition being the ultimate reason. It's simply a mean to an end.

As you said in your previous post, China would likely prefer to continue buying western chips, because being forced to develop their own will not improve their strategic posture, at least in the next years/decades.

Compared to aviation, bad outcomes in medicine are a) not news material and also b) taken into account beforehand.

Phobias apart, we simply do not expect to die, when we fly. In contrast, we openly consider % survival rates of medical procedures. These rates have human error already baked in, and would be lower if humans made less errors. And then there is the primal fear of not getting help, if needed, because no help was available, which certainly works on our collective will to action here.

A 50% survival procedure for medicine might work, because it's either that or death. Aviation is always a few plane malfunctions (not even outright crashes) in quick succession away from the entire industry crashing.
There's many ways to store hydrogen ranging from 'cryogenic' to 'dissolved in ... (acetone is a good candidate)' to 'converted to ... (ammonia et al)' to 'compressed'. Ships (can) have a lot of space so that is not much of a problem. Cryogenic is probably not feasible, compressed is probably also out but in between there are many options.
That's only the first wave though; a coordinated attack will have the faster moving and more deadly munitions launched much later to arrive with the earlier waves, taking advantage of any distraction and disruption caused by the easier targets.

> Teisi commutes from the East Bay to San Francisco to work as a caregiver. She said she started parking in her client’s driveway after her car was broken into twice on city streets.

I don't really get this argument. This feels like it might be an improvised excuse. If you're going to break into a car, I think you'd be no less likely to do it on the street as you would 5 feet away, on the sidewalk.

> Tree-shaking is such a bad misnomer.

I don't think so. I never considered tree-shaking to refer to the plants, rather the data structure.

If you imagine the diagram of some source code as a physical object, then shaking it would cause anything unreachable from the root to fall away.

I really don't see how reachability analysis is any different. One term just invokes a more spacial sense of reasoning.

It sounds like you’re not denying that Java and C# are very popular and arguably the “work horse” languages (although I expect Python is overall more used, even if it is used on very large projects where I feel it’s very often a poor choice).

As with any “typical workhorse” consumers, you land up with lots who are not necessarily passionate about their day job.

Perhaps you’re right it’s more common that C# developers are dispassionate, but I don’t think it means that there isn’t a pretty large absolute number of passionate users, even if the proportion may be low.

Look at Windows, its number of users dwarfs everything else, I fully expect that it has a much much higher percentage of dispassionate users compared to any other operating system, but it’s not to say that there aren’t a lot of passionate users of Windows.

My point is that even if it is indeed true that C# has a very high percentage of dispassionate developer, it really doesn’t mean or say much, aside from the fact that it’s used a lot.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoy using Windows and C# and I’m not going to switch to Linux or macOS for reasons like “wanting to stand out” or “not be associated with dispassionate computer users”, to me it would be like cutting off my nose to spite my face.

Windows and C# have for a very long time been super reliable for me, they really have delivered on “just works” over and over, I haven’t lost any appreciable time to things not working.

I tried Linux desktops a while back and concluded that, outside of people who just need a browser, it’s generally for people who enjoy tinkering with it, while I more prefer that my OS can just play the game I want, or just use the tool I need without needing to spend time tweaking things for it to work.

As for macOS, as a power user, I feel it’s firstly not worth the premium price tag difference, and secondly I can’t see it being worth my having to give up my Windows muscle memory. Admittedly, the battery life is probably unmatched, but I have never found myself wishing that I had more battery life than I get on my business class Dells.
This doesn't make a lot of sense as an explanation for the policy—if there were more doctors trained that doesn't require that they find jobs, but it does make it easier for hospitals to replace their doctors if and when they need to, and likely at a lower price. If healthcare costs were the reason I'd expect the government to cap the number of doctors they employ now, not try to guess how many doctors they'll wish they could employ in six years.

This is something the repair shops don't want to admit. When the customer comes in, they want their laptop fixed in a few hours. If the shop doesn't have the part available, will the customer want to wait a week for it to be ordered? No, the customer would leave. The repair shops want to be able to use whatever cheap part they have on hand because it gets the customer out the door.
Yes. They are very common in parts of Canada during winter. They get fixed relatively quickly for sure but it’s a yearly occurrence.
And they got MBAs instead.
But it’s not like our standard of living has remained static while we need to work more. A lot has changed. In 1960 the average single family home was 1300 square feet, now it’s more than double that, and it’s packed with amazing amenities and entertainment options. What would an iPad cost in 1960?

Obviously the question is kind of nonsensical and yet on the other hand, if you were to try and quantify the price of our ability to work from home, for instance, we have a way better deal going than they did in 1960. You could retort that this is the inevitable march of technological progress, but could it be the result of hard work and innovation including the hard work and innovation of women in the work force?

Think R^X bit style. The kernel would participate in such a way that you can seal the GOT to be read only once the linker is done with it. Then it doesn't matter that a library came in later as there's nothing it can do to modify the GOT as there's no mechanism to make it writable. As you mention, the same protection would need to exist for the executable code itself to avoid overwriting code mapped from disk (I believe that's probably true but I'm not 100% certain).

Defense in depth is about adding more & more hurdles for attackers which raises the costs involved. Even state actors have a budget.
Headline consumer sentiment is polluted by junk like this article. People report their personal household situation is fine and they expect it to continue being at least this good or better in 1 and 5 years. But they've heard so much shadowstats horseshit on the radio that they are compelled to stake out a negative view on the economy as a whole.

In the latest UMich consumer survey majority of respondents expect their incomes to grow faster than prices, in fact the reported probability of real personal income rising has never been higher in the history of the survey. And, with respect to inflation, consumers expect incomes to rise about 2.5% per year, and that expectation is higher than the expected increase in prices. During times of very high inflation respondents reported expectations of 6% nominal income increases. So this is all consistent with the idea that inflation as people actually experience it has been moderate. But, further down the February results, you can see that record numbers of people report hearing negative news stories about prices, way way way higher than in 1980! Which is totally crazy if you were here in 1980! You can also read further and see that expectation of rising unemployment have been consistently high for the last 5 years, and reports of having heard news stories about unemployment have been at record highs, while responses about the probability of losing their own job are at record lows and of course objective unemployment is almost dangerously low.
This seems really low. If we could throw 3.4b at a new car company and get the awesome suspension tech and price points of the BYD cars then that’d be huge. If every country could do this domestically, even better!

It may be the easier option for electrically propelled ships, several of which are already in service. Mind I'm not talking about battery-electric ships but diesel-electric (hybrid, [1]) which have the range and load capacity needed for 'serious' applications. If - and that is a big if - the requisite fuel cells can be developed they could directly drive the existing electric propulsion units in those ships, replacing the diesel generators currently in use.

Try and be consistent. Tesla.com/inventory cars can be ~5,000$ cheaper but only if you ignore the very tax credit you’re talking about. “Eligible for $7,500 Business Tax Credit only” Demo Vehicle 1,165 mile odometer

Useful if you make to much money for the federal tax credit and don’t mind a used car, but we are still talking $43k + fees and taxes.

On the other hand if you get a car that’s actually 30k then you may or may not qualify for a tax credit on top of that price. But at minimum it’s going to be far cheaper.

> The sidewalk is city property.

This isn't always so cut and dry. In some older neighborhoods, the homes predate the sidewalks, sometimes by up to a hundred years!

So as part of the agreement, the city might maintain rights of the easement for the sidewalk, but the homes/streets/driveways were never designed with a sidewalk bisecting them.

The mistake there was in leaving the private monopoly intact whatsoever.

If you want to have ISP-level competition, one of the better ways to do it is to have the government install cable trenches along the roads which the government then owns and provides cheap access for anyone to lay cable. Once the trenches exist, wiring a neighborhood with fiber is then far less expensive and makes it feasible to have multiple competitors.
I don't get it. It seems to be an html where magic happens via attributes, and it just looks ugly to me. Looking at the reference - the third Core™ attribute is literally for calling arbitrary JavaScript inside an HTML attribute tag which for me is really cursed. All these hx-on::before-request, hx-on-htmx-before-request, hx-on="htmx:beforeRequest: alert('Making a request!')
htmx:afterRequest: alert('Done making a request!')".

Only showing not a single piece of logic more complex than a simple alert.
Heck! This looks like a dirty hack, and for some reason it exists, giving htmx the power of the javascript, but now all inside HTML of course. How come it's applying the rule of least power if such thing exists? 36 new custom attributes for HTML, _most_ of what you want should be covered, maybe one day you will want something else, and we will cover it with more custom HTML attributes, until we reach hundred of them for every use case. No javascript needed. And yes, React unlike HTMX is not a framework, it is just a library for building user interfaces, it does not provide a specific structure for developing your application, it is just a tool to perform a specific task: building a view layer of your application.
