A big problem is that robotaxis and FSD are not the same product. The technologies are related, but they're not even the same technology. They don't have the same goals or the same constraints. For example, everyone developing robotaxis intensively 3D maps the areas in which they're intended to operate. They use lidar and other kinds of sensors in addition to optical cameras for both mapping and to operate their robotaxis. If it turns out that camera-only autonomous driving is insufficient, not only does Tesla not have the right sensors on their vehicles, they haven't got the mapping data either. Announcing a robo taxi is as much an act of creating a product by proclamation as a Mars colony.
>storage [...] bit flipping

As someone with no storage expertise I'm curious, does anyone know the likelyhood of an error resulting in a bit flip rather than an unreadable sector? Memory bit flips during I/O are another thing but I'd expect a modern HDD/SSD to return an error if it isn't sure about what it's reading.
Forwarding traditionally looked like this:

1. I tell my email client from colimbarna@fine.server.example to send an email to eisenstein@old.server.example using my.correctly.configured.smtp.server.example

2. my.correctly.configured.smtp.server.example looks up the records for old.server.example and contacts the SMTP server that is sitting there.

3. old.server.example accepts the email and checks its rules for what to do with it: and it is supposed to forward it to eisenstein@new.server.example.

4. old.server.example looks up the records for new.server.example and contacts the SMTP server that is sitting there. It forwards the email basically unchanged - this isn't something where it's from:eisenstein@old.server.example to:eisenstein@new.server.example subject: Fwd - old subject, it's just saying "here's an email to eisenstein@old.server.example, please deliver it to eisenstein@new.server.example". Remember that the "to" address isn't necessarily the person the email is getting delivered to, because you might be in a cc or even bcc list.

5. new.server.examples accepts the email and checks its rules for what to do with it: and it supposed to put it into eisenstein's inbox.

The change here is to steps 3 and 5: "server accepts the email". Instead of simply accepting the email, the SMTP server will checks to make sure that the server which is sending the email is allowed to send the email on behalf of that email address.

So in step 3, old.server.example will check to make sure that my.correctly.configured.smtp.server.example is allowed to send emails on behalf of fine.server.example. It will see that it is, and the email will continue.

But then in step 5, new.server.example will check to make sure that old.server.example is allowed to send emails on behalf of fine.server.example. And it will see that it is not, and it won't accept the email.

Now, your situation is probably different. Instead of steps 3-5, you probably have gmail checking to make sure the sender is allowed to send the email, and if so it checks its rules for what to do with it: and it is supposed to put it into eisenstein's inbox. It's not actually forwarded, it's just that there's more than one email address that gets delivered into the one inbox. (This assumes you have your domain correctly configured for delivery to a gmail address. It's worth double checking, especially if you set it up longer ago than you care to remember.)
Ask HN: What older games are you playing through?
Recently finished FFX and now playing through FF7 for the first time. I feel like the games from that era tend to be more engaging - they cannot rely on the graphics to sell themselves and had not yet been 'hollywood-ised', so tend to be more creative, not take themselves too seriously and are just more fun.

Plus, there is the test of time - easier to know what the gems are after some time has passed.

I find that after a few hours, you stop even noticing the older graphics.

Any older games you have recently enjoyed for the first time?
I know I will be in a small minority, but I miss the way changes were
documented and explained at the top of the source code.

Makes it super easy to get a feel for it and super easy to search for
comments on changes or jump to the part of the code you need to work on.

Yes the drawbacks are sometimes a huge list of comments before the source
code even begins, but you can quickly jump with a search for " */"

It makes the files larger, and you should be able to pull the same from whatever versioning system you use, but that involves context change
and a separate program (though if you an IDE it may be integrated).

Would be fun to have a git tool that mimics this.
Best of both worlds.
I think I meant more like "every language can have good programmers writing top quality code in it, even (especially) the blubs", not that a given good programmer will be able to immediately translate their expertise to a vastly different language or environment.
edit: well this became a bit longer than I initially planned, I think I just had a lot to share when it comes to my recent VR adventures.

Well here I am: I initially got queasy as soon as I moved, then I'd immediately stop and take a break, longer breaks in the beginning. Initially I got a strong sense of de-realization / depersonalization after getting out of the digital world (i.e. looking at your hands and your brain being confused if they're real) But that also went away very quickly. The nausea, and 'am I still in the matrix' feeling got better within days, and went away within weeks. Now I can stomach any crazy topsy-turvy locomotion in any game. But I still feel the sweat and excitement, when swinging off 1000 feet high cliffs in Jet Island, or diving hundreds of meters deep in Subnautica.

It's just amazing how immersive it can be. I think you can only get there by having it at home and really giving yourself the time to get into it.

It's also re-ignited my love for single player games, especially modded triple A titles like Dragon Quest XI, or Resident Evil 2 (Remake) for example.

And btw, I run all of this on (arch) linux, on a Valve Index kit, using both SteamVR and OpenXR through Envision (Monado). It's been a bit of tinkering but that's only made it more satisfying for me. Plus, there are great communities like the Linux VR Adventure group: https://lvra.gitlab.io/
Regular YouTube videos on mobile also don't allow you to change the volume separate to the phone's 'master volume'. I don't think this is a TikTok/YouTube specific thing - you just don't see separate volume sliders on mobile like you would on a video playing on desktop.
Weird that the physical port number is not part of that unique id used to “hash” the monitor. It is like me not being able to figure out how to leave my kitchen for the lounge because the carpenter installed the same make, model and serial number door on all the frames.
Not the same thing. Twice the unique zero of cos in [0, 2] is provably equal to the circumference of a circle of diameter 1. It's not equal to 3.2 or whatever the Indiana Pi Bill was trying to legislate.
Game streaming is not a technology problem, it's a physics problem. You'd need to have servers close to any potential playes.
An old neighbor of mine has a webcam mounted in his front window to record license plates of people driving through his neighborhood. When I asked him why he told me that it was because the government and other people are recording his movements, why can't he?
There are already a lot of open bibliographic databases, semantic Scholar and OpenAlex and to some extent Google Scholar. Researchers need fulltext analysis which with half of publications being locked behind a paywall makes it very tedious and complicated.
I had the pleasure to meet him in person and the guy is just so grounded and nice to interact and help you with stuff in a non-judgmental way.

Many people I know, with less than 1% of his contributions to OSS, have inflated egos and are just full of themselves, so it is refreshing to have people such as Simon in the OSS community.
Not at all. The compilers I'm familiar with (and my dayjob is maintaining compilers for a commercial OS) all just emit a phi node and construct basic blocks for all flow control constructs. By the time you're deep in the IR you have no idea if it was a do-loop, a for-loop, a while loop, a loop with continue and break statements, a series of deeply-nested if-statements, and aggregate initializer, or a goto.

The people who religiously avoid the use of gotos are more often than not just cargo-culters.
The cost of repairing the house, though.
And what are they suggesting to improve the proposal? Apple, which makes $20B a year with Safari, surely has enough resources to make a counter-proposal?
Water is more and more becoming a scarce resource unevenly distributed.
Industrials and agricultural processes, energy storage and domestic consumption are all crucial for the people and the economy.
I would guess that most regular users are very quick to click “Allow” on a dialog box. I like how macOS handles unidentified apps where you have to navigate manually to the security settings to allow an unidentified app.
The original intent for iOS was for developers to use Safari, not making native apps. For apps that won’t pass the Apple approval process, Apple’s direction is still for them to make we apps.
On the contrary. Many passes in a compiler are simpler if the control-flow graph is reducible [1], which it is guaranteed to be if the program had been written in structured programming without any gotos.

It is just that "goto" is closer to assembly code, and therefore used in intermediary code representations inside the compiler for that reason. But if the compiler had made sure beforehand that the control flow is reducible (and don't break that in an intermediary pass), then it will remain so.

I find that most uses of gotos in source code are still reducible control-flow, but which had just not been expressible using structured programming constructs in the language. For example jumping out of nested loops, "for-else" and error handling.
It is very rare that you see "spaghetti code" in practice.

What does democracy mean if it is not related to the popular will?
Of course, but the point stands.

Consider an expert in C programming for embedded platforms, and an expert in Ada (or Forth) programming for embedded platforms. The surrounding expertise is similar, but the language-specific expertise shouldn't be dismissed.

I'm not sure I understand. Are you autistic yourself?

In any case, thank you for your lengthy and informative replies. We live in the UK, so our path will be different from the US. As the parents, our strong instinct is that he is not "just a typical four year old". We have known something was atypical since his first year. I am so tired of external people telling me how he is "just being a child". We have another child. We know what "just being a child" is. And I'm tired of being told to dismiss our instincts.

We know that a diagnosis won't solve anything, and that we can and are learning as much as we can to understand the way he perceives the world and what works for him and what doesn't.

Thanks again for your replies.

Good "Go To Statement Considered Harmful" considered harmful take. I frequently use goto in C to jump to resource cleanup code in case of an error. Always turns out more readable than the alternatives.

I think I may even have used it in Go once, but I can't remember what for. Go's defer keyword obviates the above use of goto, and labeled breaks almost any other case I can think of.
I criticize Elon often and harshly, but putting off a low cost car might be the rational and realistic part of this set of decisions: The opportunity cost of cybertruck and other side quests Tesla has been on make doing a low-cost car something that should have been started 4 years ago, using the money that's been spent on a second rate robot or a semi truck that's good for hauling potato chips.
How to Build an AI Agent Using No-Code Tools
How did Jack Dorsey and the FBI handle this?
We already have a diverse ecosystem of platforms which are capable of using hardware components for various experiences - we call them "the OS". It comes with a security model, permission prompts and all kinds of bells and whistles (it's a mature platform, developed for decades).

The browser (agent) is a native app designed to allow users to access and navigate web resources (we call them pages or documents). Pages can be styled (CSS) and made interactive (JavaScript).

When one wants to create an experience which goes beyond the scope of the browser, one builds another native app that is able to leverage the needed resources. A dedicated native app can embed a browser (e.g. webframe) or consume web resources through other protocols. A native app can also request access to hardware resources via the OS.
I think because MS and others are approached by Universities because of things they promise businesses.

For example: A rather large University in town got hacked. They ran their own infra till then and, as it happens, caught on of the "give me money or your infra is dead" things. Afterwards a lot of not so tech and security savvy folks that where in charge of handling the rebuild and aftermath where eager to shift the blame and damage in the future - especially since said town is located in a GDPR country. In comes MS and gives the same promise as to every other entity: "Buy us and never worry about accrediting your own infra or software solutions. Also conveniently point to us when shit happens".

Edit: wording
I, for one, would like the same standard applied to psychedelics, instead of worrying about whether bad results lead to its continued prohibition

It seems that right now people are too worried about a bad result messing up their ability to talk casually about their trips

I just want side effects to be based on less conjecture

science lets its beliefs die, faithful die with their beliefs

right now, psychonauts seem to be in the latter group and its not helping the science form at all
This seems unnecessarily snarky polemic to me. What TBL did was 'invent' the 'Web'. Yes he was standing on the shoulders of giants.

Indeed, quoted from Wikipedia:

Creating the web was really an act of desperation, because the situation without it was very difficult when I was working at CERN later. Most of the technology involved in the web, like the hypertext, like the Internet, multifont text objects, had all been designed already. I just had to put them together. It was a step of generalising, going to a higher level of abstraction, thinking about all the documentation systems out there as being possibly part of a larger imaginary documentation system.

The experienced inflation is the area under the spike in that graph. And the area is approximately way larger in the 80's spike. Above 7% for a decade versus 2 for the current spike. And just like interest, that compounds over time.
I think it's normally "harebrained" like hare/rabbit but hair brain doesn't imply any greater intelligence for sure. I've said folks are "single threads" to indicate something similar in more nerdy settings.
From my experience, being comfortable with networks and systems outside the cloud is a valuable skill that not a ton of people possess. It may be surprising to some of you, but there is an entire generation of syadmin/devops that have never touched a switch or a bare metal server.

Being forced to brake while driving can also be very dangerous. How is this not a problem? And I think you're misusing the word "technically" here.
There's no guarantee of anything being around.

Anecdotally, I recently worked on a project that used a Flag CDN - worked fine for a long time, then started sporadically failing.

As such I don't think I'd used anything in production hosted on a none static copy CDN like Cloudflare, sure Cloudflare could do down, but we probably all have bigger issues then than my flags not working.
List of solar eclipses with historical reference
In the absence of hard data you just have to guess - take a look at the SWG Emu project. They had to have historians go through decades old archived threads to try to reverse engineer how the game actually worked, I’m not sure the status of the project now but it did indeed take many, many years to even come close to a compareable experience to the original.

Yeah, I would like to know more about the Mac vs iOS WebKit as well. I would have guessed that the development of both would be done by the same team and that it would be very close for all features where they didn’t take a strategic decision to hinder web apps on the phone or performance/ux. But for example not having the autofocus attribute or pseudo selection css seems a little strange even though I can see how it could affect ux on the phone, especially the autofocus which would show the keyboard.
I think it's common for multiplayer game engines to implement single-player by running a local server on loopback (or via an equivalent internal mechanism). At the very least, I believe the Source Engine and Minecraft do this. Perhaps Unreal Engine does this also, and if so, that might be why the client has server functionality.

Hitler was certainly brilliant in certain ways, e.g. as a public speaker he must have been very persuasive. I don't think that changes anything about how utterly insane his (and his fellow Nazis') ideology was, though.

There are "effective" dictators who manage to have a stable, if brutal reign, and then there's Nazi-ism which at its very core is such a destructive ideology that it can't really even sustain itself in the long run.
nice website, would be cool to see at EU level.
And fighting: no. Literally. Farmers beat up people, block roads, drive over police corridors with tractors, have rammed through the doors of a local parliament with tractors.

It's exceptionally violent and nasty. All triggered by law suits in which individuals and orgs forced the governments to actually start upholding their own laws wrt nitrogen deposits. It the quickly spiralled into actual violence, blockades, and grim protests.

My first job out of university was maintaining a FORTRAN IV program on a PDP-11. The only control structures in that language was IF..GOTO and the arithmetic GOTO. You can still write readable half-decent code with that, with discipline. A DO loop is still superior for readability.

The horrors of BASIC with its spaghetti of GO TO or its mess of PEEKs and POKEs are a justification for permabanning that style of programming -- but a decade of typing in listings from magazines inspired the generation the brought us the web and pocket phones. Maybe it wasn't such a bad thing after all.
Perhaps there should be a confirmed victim of police brutality on the review board? Surely that would be similarly beneficial?

Bingo, you have the answer. Now do the same suggestion for security cameras in homes for domestic violence, bathrooms for rape, politician's and judges offices for bribery, offices of government clerks, etc.

You'll realize people get very uncomfortable very quickly when you start heading down a near bulletproof solution. They want the chaos, the charade and they definitely want the "vagueness" of laws because they can't handle the black and white nature of a lot of laws that were drawn up lazily.

Pharo would be the practical one, Squeak the less industrial one. Lots of stuff has been implemented with both, enough that you could run a consultancy and build applications for people.

You'd need to be a bit of a Smalltalk nerd though, and be prepared to do most of the work yourself since there aren't that many smalltalkers to recruit from. You'd also be in competition for developers with companies building software for insurance or ERP, and many smalltalkers spent relatively much time in academia so that could affect salary expectations.
