In Seattle, if a pedestrian wants to cross at any no-stop-light intersection (it doesn't matter if it is across a busy stroad!), cars are supposed to stop and let them cross safely, even at night. Yes, it is a poorly thought out law (unsafe for both pedestrians and cars, without improving the intersections to make them safe for pedestrians by not adding crosswalks, not removing pedestrian obstructing parked vehicles and trees, etc...), but in that sense even if the guy were in full black camo on a moon-free night without street lights around, cars are still expected to see and stop for them.

So in that case, if the pedestrian was at any kind of intersection, FSD would be doing the correct thing.

> In case you think this is academic, look at the occupations for those who lived in today’s wealthiest neighborhoods. Today Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and other super zips are exclusively $500k incomes and up. In the 1960 census records you will find these good neighborhoods occupied with plumbers, painters and other blue collar workers.

How much is this related to inflation compared to the complete refusal of the Silicon Valley suburbs to building new housing? If rich people want to move somewhere, and people living in that area dont build houses for them to move into, its going to drive the prices up, because the wealthy people will go there no matter what.

Also your whole bit about the past being so much better is insane. Hard to tell what is you exaggerating and what is a serious argument. My partner and I make ~100k + 40k combined a year, and we rent an apartment in one of the nicest SF neighborhoods, save for retirement, go out and do (paid) things every weekend, and still save a good chunk of money every month. We also have gym memberships, own cars, buy nice groceries, etc.

Inflation does suck, and the sticker shock is bad, but the high inflation also stems from policies that have let us have insanely good unemployment levels. Post 2008 we saw less inflation, but unemployment stayed high for almost a decade. Unemployment is already down to super low levels post 2020, which is better for everyone. Average and lower wage workers have also seen large growths in what they make.
I'm using the term as it's used 9/10 times it comes up. I've never in my life met a self proclaimed fiscal conservative that didn't just mean "I want lower taxes". The way to lower taxes is a healthy and intelligent population. That is seen as a cost but is actually an investment that pays massive dividends. That's what a fiscal conservative would do, invest at the societal level. Otherwise they're basically just a libertarian.

Ya you can do that, but then it feels like dangerous. When it gets like that I usually just shut it off and control distance myself (and "cough" adjust it to dissuade swerving and then back off for safety).

Things are a lot cheaper if you keep them in a 1200 square foot house

> Today you have 2 people working 100 hours a week to support 1-2 additional people , while living in an apartment and living in a run down and crime infested neighborhood.

Highly doubt people at this income rank were buying houses in 1960 and living comfortably.

Entire argument is whether you should count interest or not. I can see arguments both ways
I honestly hope Houdini never makes it into a final spec. The demo use cases are interesting, but the last thing we need is more complexity in web development.

Browsers today already act more like operating systems than document viewers. Houdini basically takes it a step further allowing every app to bring its own renderer. Linux leans heavily into this today and it makes mundane tasks like global theming a huge pain in the butt.
>On that note, houses are unquestionably more valuable today. For one, they are twice the size they were 60 years ago. We can all agree that a bigger house has more value than a small house, at least within reason. You can fit more in it, it is more comfortable, etc. and that is valuable. They are also a lot safer. That too is more valuable.

Keep in mind, demand was higher with the baby boom than it is today. Houses also used to be built to much higher specifications. Old houses were made with tons of premium timber that is still valuable even 50+ years later.
This is what big CDN and cloud vendors do. You can see them as part of the infrastructure. For big users of cloud you can get dedicated connections, for example Azure ExpressRoute.

Having the perfect trip is composed by 4 phases:
1. Dream about your next trip
2. Decide to make the trip but figure out where to go.
3. Plan your trip, what to do there
4. The actual trip

No worry, we got you cover on the first 3. You can create the perfect route with a interactive map, and your own AI travel assistant, which can suggest you number of days, places and much more. Then create a base itinerary for your trip and let the assistant interact with it, updating it, adding new activities, removing existing ones and much more.

Except I live in one of the places that has widespread competition (Utah) and can pick from one of dozens of Fiber Internet providers, including some that can provide 10Gbps service, a cable company, and even technically Starlink.

How many of them are throttling content to prevent competition in this hypothetical anti-net neutrality scenario? Exactly zero.

Which is evidence to me that Net Neutrality is a sham, what more people need is a free market. Not another government monopoly with some regulations slapped on.
Price inflation tells you very little about how well the average person lives.

The average person today has a far higher standard of living than the average person in 1963.

The challenge with Microsoft in Europe is that it is so convenient, it doesn’t make business sense to consider alternatives. See how easily MS won market share over Slack (MS Teams) and PowerBI (Tableau / Qlik). They have such a big bundle of services that any single player has to be either amazingly good, or specialized, to win maybe 1-2% of market share. The only way I see Europe doing something about it is antitrust laws that break the bundles.

I think this is valid for car purchases.

I don't buy this is reasonable for home purchases. They already factor imputed rent in CPI; you'd have to somehow do some sort of complex weighing of own vs rent to factor mortgages (complex since it only affects new purchases given most folks are on fixed rate mortgages)

Community/social life has greatly declined for almost everyone. Home appliances are fancier today, but they are far less reliable. Furniture is much worse in almost every way (e.g. my grandma sleeps today on the same bed and spring mattress that her parents-in-law bought, some 60-70 years ago, and it is still extremely comfortable). Clothes are far less durable as well. Fruits and vegetables are typically worse in taste. Education is extraordinarily more expensive. Job security is much worse.
> Remember in 1963 only the man was working, and typically supported 4 kids, a wife and often parents in the home.

They used older kids to watch younger kids, and generally let the kids fend more for themselves (my boomer dad was the oldest of 8 kids, and that was his experience, but having his grandparents die of spanish flu after WW2 hurt and helped a bit). I actually kind of admire that, and think we've lost something with more hands on parenting.

I totally agree. In a sense, FAANG salaries aren't especially high by historical standards, it is just that everyone else has fallen so far behind. $500k/year household income is firmly middle class, and is like earning $135k in 1980, my dad made more than that contracting in building nuclear plants with an associates degree from Spokane Community College.
>People tend to react to things they buy frequently which also happen to be the most volatile (food and fuel) and react less to things they actually spend most of their money on (shelter and transportation).

Are you suggesting housing prices haven't gone up similar to food prices? Because they have. House prices in many places went up 50% in the last few years and never went back down. People aren't imagining this inflation. It isn't 3%, that's for damn sure. It's at least 10% right now, and probably hit as high as 20% during the pandemic.

I'm good at navigating also, I put this down to being out in the mountains, on trails and such as a young kid. I come from the southern hemisphere so I discovered I needed to re-orientate myself when I first went to the northern hemisphere which didn't take long.

I recall being in New York and for a day or so I found myself walking 180° the wrong way - going north when I was supposed to be heading south, etc. Obviously I'm navigating by the sun or the brightest part of the sky. It wasn't until I was first in the northern hemisphere that I realized this as back home I was doing it automatically without being aware of the fact.
Seems like functions could work well to give it an active and distinct choice, but I'm still unsure if the function/parameters are going to be the logical, correct answer...
Videos like these can also be a fantastic way of introducing viewers to CS and math topics that they wouldn't otherwise have been exposed to. The video game theme gets them in the door; the detailed analysis teaches them some things which are applicable beyond that game.
> Hybrid work is the worst of both worlds.

Best of both world to me.

I really don't want to commute every day, that becomes exhausting. And given how miserable offices are these days (open offices everywhere), I wouldn't get anything done in an open office every day.

I've done 100% remote and while it sounded great on paper, it is a lot easier to built rapport with people if you can see them once in a while. I worked at one remote-only company for a couple years and never met anyone, everyone just tiny boxes on a zoom screen. Never felt I knew anyone.

Going to the office once a week is great. I get to know people personally and while the open office is miserable I don't even pretend to sit down and work on the office day, I stack it with meetings (both formal and informal).

As to the HCOL area it still helps. A commute that would be insane every day becomes a lot more palatable if it's once a week.
The supabase team always delivers. Excited to give this a try!

It sounds like anything from Italian museums is a no-go due to this, whereas things from German or British museums (;>) would be fair game.

The mention of British museums is due to this recent case:

Unfortunately, if consumers can’t make an informed decision, then there isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell that the government, which is full of technically incompetent bureaucrats, is going to somehow make the right decision for them.

I’d sooner trust an average 15 year old to regulate the Internet than literally any elected politician or professional lobbyist.
> Generating CSS with JavaScript was a possibility, but boy oh boy is that ever a bad idea.

lol.

As a backend developer that pretends to be full-stack, I enjoyed the hell out of reading this. CSS is such a mosh pit that it's just about impossible to find a summary of why things developed as they did. Plus I feel curiously reinforced about the times I've come at this with fresh backendy ideas, asking frontend devs "uh, why are we doing it this way?" and they only make strangled noises in response.
AKA Moravec's paradox.

> Moravec wrote in 1988, "it is comparatively easy to make computers exhibit adult level performance on intelligence tests or playing checkers, and difficult or impossible to give them the skills of a one-year-old when it comes to perception and mobility".

> Steven Pinker wrote in 1994 that "the main lesson of thirty-five years of AI research is that the hard problems are easy and the easy problems are hard."

Why bring this us up now? This formula was changed in 1983, when Ronald Reagan was president and the interest rate was 9.09% (down from 12.24% in 1982).

I'll note that Steve Forbes supported Trump in 2016, and claimed last year that Joe Biden is "not up to the job anymore" - although this is not necessarily relevant.

We can't change how we look at inflation based on the perception we want to achieve. This is what we have measured since 1983. And what if the change the formula back? Then we have a new number. And now what?

The article claims that the previous formula correlates better with sentiment. Maybe so. Sure, ever increasing money supply might make you feel rich, when in fact you are not.
Did we think we will never have to be pay the bill for over a decade of near-zero interest rates?

The current sentiment seems to be as much influenced by what people want to believe or what their peer group on social media believes.
I'm going a bit far off of my wheelbase here, because exploit development and mitigation is not an area I have a lot of experience in, but the sense I've seen from security researchers is that OpenBSD's security posture is far more mixed than their developers' touting implies. So while OpenBSD may have some features that are well-regarded (say, their malloc implementation), they can do a shockingly bad job in other areas (such as ROP mitigations).
"Lack of competition" implies an antitrust solution, yet I have examples of countries where markets are extremely consolidated (and would be a slam dunk FTC case) yet are able to benefit the consumer.

My argument is that the amount of litigation needed in coordination with the FTC, FCC, and others makes an opaque system.

The American system isn't truly a free market - it's increasingly ossified, with decisions immediately litigated following a regulatory decision.

This incentivizes larger organizations with the capital to initiate litigation and continue to be players at the expense of potentially disruptive upstarts (ie. Startups).

At the end of the day, some industries are suboptimal if following a New America/Warren style vision of antitrust.

I don't disagree with the notion of antitrust, but I think "consumer harm" is a better heuristic than an "open markets" approach.

If an oligopoly arises yet is able to keep inflation down and production high, so be it.

If a monopoly or oligopoly is abusing it's position to extract higher than needed costs, then it's time to use the DoJ hammer.

An "open market" approach can be diametrically opposed to "consumer benefit" as it can prevent the economies of scale needed for commercial players to meet their financial needs. Instead, a subsidy or PLI driven approach to build more players would be a much better option, and we've already seen the positive impact that has had via the CHIPS Act and the Inflation Reduction Act.

This is also the approach used by Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, and has helped minimize the amount of financialization compared to the US or the EU, and has helped maintain their commanding heights.
> Is the idea that there's some inherent mistrust of `-c copy` or that sometimes downstream options affect it basically invalidating it?

Yes, that's one reason.

I suppose the main mistrust along those lines is -- I have all these programs which manipulate my media metadata and sometimes changes the names or locations of my media files. And I'm basically fine with lots of small automated changes to my metadata from programs like `beets`. I'd just like some assurance whatever they spit out is what I started with.

With respect to metadata more specifically, if someone cleans up the metadata on an album or adds additional information, or album art, this shouldn't invalidate any checksum.

Network transfers of media could certainly benefit from this. If I send a ALAC album to someone, and they open it 3 months later, they should be able to know what I sent is what they are listening to, even after they retagged it.

They mean 'configuration secrets'. Those variables used for internal authorization and configuration that should never be leaked outside the organization. If source code of AGPL software is modified and used for an online service, it needs to be published in respecting the license, and best any 'trade secrets' are isolated. The only other alternatives are to use the code as-is or build a proprietary solution from scratch.

I've often thought that a database that could automatically detect slow queries and create the necessary indexes would be neat. You run a load test on your application, which in turns calls the database and you collect all the queries it makes. Then the database automatically adjusts itself.
This is interesting to me. The first question which comes to my mind is: As a D3 user, is this something which I might prefer to D3, at least in some contexts? If so, when might it be preferable to D3?

That's obviously a controversial question, and I can understand that the OP might want to avoid it, but realistically that is what potential users will want to know.

Anyone here who knows both D3 and Ripl and is willing to dip their toes into controversy?
Moved to IT (in a pharma context) after 5 years of experience in hospitals by chance. I like to tell myself that I gra itated towards it since I always wanted to be an engineer. I will not stop being a doctor and I may never quite be an engineer, but I enjoy what I do.
Bad example, because drinking vs flushing water can have real differences in properties affecting their price, availability and quality. Just like QoS can be meaningful to differentiate low-latency vs high bandwidth. The problem starts when service level is is based on the service-provider, not the type content, when Spotify music is cheaper than Apple music, even though both are just music.

A more accurate analogy would be if the cost was based on the brand of the faucet, or if electricity was charged differently for using your stove vs running your AC. Or if roads had a fast-lane to drive to Costco, while the rest share a jammed single lane.
