I've used DuckDuckGo from 2012 until 2022, when I switched to Ecosia. Both search engines uses Bing behind the scenes. In my opinion the results have been "good enough" for a long time and as good as Google for at least five years. In the later years Googles results haven't exactly gotten worse, but the layout of their result pages have been degrading fast. So while Google can still find what you're looking for they are hiding those results in favor of showing more ads and trying to keep you leaving their site.

It is a little surprising what Google still maintain such a high market share, but that's momentum and force of habit for you.

Spacelift | Remote | Europe | Full-time | Senior Software Engineer | $80k-$120k

We're a VC-funded startup building an automation platform for Infrastructure-as-Code, adding a Policy-as-Code layer above it, in order to make IaC usable in bigger companies, where you have to take care of state consistency, selective permissions, a usable git flow, etc.

On the backend we're using 100% Go with AWS primitives. We're looking for backend developers who like doing DevOps'y stuff sometimes (because in a way it's the spirit of our company), or have experience with the cloud native ecosystem. Ideally you'd have experience working with an IaC tool, i.e. Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, or SaltStack.

Overall we have a deeply technical product, trying to build something customers love to use, and already have a lot of happy and satisfied customers. We promise interesting work, the ability to open source parts of the project which don't give us a business advantage, as well as healthy working hours. We've also got investment days on Fridays, when you can work on anything you want, as long as it could possibly benefit Spacelift in some way.

If that sounds like fun to you, please apply at https://spacelift.teamtailor.com/jobs/3006934-software-engin...

You can find out more about the product we're building at https://spacelift.io and also see our engineering blog for a few technical blog posts of ours: https://spacelift.io/blog/engineering

I wonder how humans would respond to a prompt '(without mechanical assistance) with 80% probability say Left, and with 20% say Right' across a population.

I can think of a few levels that people might try to think about the problem:
Level 0: Ignore the probabilities and just pick whichever you feel like, (would tend to 50:50)
Level 1: Say the most with the greatest probability - Left (would tend to 100:0)
Level 2: Consider that most people are likely to say Left, so say Right instead (would tend to 0:100)
Level 3: Try to think about what proportion of people would say Left, and what would say Right, and say whichever would return the balance closest to 80:20...

Presumably your result would depend on how many people thinking on each level you have in your sample...

These companies are not offering a competitor to Starlink and it doesn't sound like they plan to.. MEO has latency that is 3X higher than LEO, these are not going to be useful for the same things.

I read this article the opposite way, it seems this is just a big merger in the industry which will mean less competition.

Also mentioned in the article:

>Viasat [...] last year purchased Inmarsat

I didn't know this happened, but that's another example of a big merger reducing competition.

This article seems like some positive spin on an event that would otherwise be construed as bad for customers and the industry as a whole.

That's fair. I'd expect knowing where we're likely to find them on Earth does at least help inform our few Mars landers' choice of landing sites, though.

> The point is some cultures are clearly not part of Western culture

That's my point. No culture belongs to 'western culture' because there is no such thing as 'western culture' or western civilization.

> So it does make sense to make a distinction even if the boundaries are blurry.

Yes. It does make sense to distinguish between say Egyptian civilization and Hebrew civilization and Greek civilization and Chinese civilization and Indian civilization and Mayan civilization and so forth. But there is no distinguishing 'western civilization' from anything because it simply doesn't exist.

Not sure if you are being intentionally dense but my point was clear. Maybe you should go back and read my original comment that you replied to.

Tell me what western civilization is. Even if the boundaries are 'blurry' try giving us the broad strokes. What is the language or culture or ethnicity or religion or customs of western civilization. It doesn't exist. That's my point.

> Sure sounds like the Ford was following the observer car, probably pretty closely for the given speed. Having reflectors on the stationary car isn't useful when the stationary car is completely obscured by the observer car. If the observer car missed it by only a couple of seconds, there was probably only five seconds or so for the Ford driver to see it, realize what was happening, and properly respond.

Sounds like the Ford wasn't maintaining a safe following distance.

I've seen this line about "cheap imported labor" all the time and frankly when it comes to software I don't understand it. The pay in this field is outrageously high. I don't think immigration policy should be concerned with protecting my salary. It should be concerned with increasing the country's power to the maximum extent possible.
Thanks for the link elsewhere. While I agree with your assessment about what probably happened, I still say there aren't many facts. It would be helpful to know how far in advance the observer changed lanes.

> Even if they slammed on the brakes and managed to cut half their speed they're still slamming into a stationary, heavy object at 40ish mph.

A 40 mph collision is often survivable these days (that's the speed used for crash tests!). The accident vehicle driver survived regardless; the driver of the stopped car didn't though.

Driver assistance is really unhelpful in these situations. Most likely the lead car slowed down, at least a bit while changing lanes, so an active driver would also be slowing and may be quicker to slow more when an unexpected car is there, but driver assistance is going to see the lead car left the lane and there's no other cars (because stationary objects are ignored) so go ahead and speed up. Tesla's are known to have a very high rate of acceleration in this case, not sure about the acceleration for the MachE.

Adding more speculation: as an untrained armchair internet crash investigator, my guess is the collison happened at over 40 mph. The IIHS crash test [1] seems to show less damage than the accident vehicle, and the stopped vehicle was overturned in addition to significant damage.

The goal is admirable. But "fact checking" is complicated and intelligent people can disagree. And a lot of people understand that having a centralized source of "truth" isn't desirable.

The mathematical disciplines have proofs. That is, "facts" that are attained by deduction. Science can be rigorous, but it isn't driven through proofs. Science is empirical. A lot of the time, scientific research is not accessible and requires expert consensus. In any case, my guess is that most people aren't going to be fact checking math and physics, but socially relevant claims. And those are usually politicized.

The point is: I don't know how you're going to decide on "facts" or "truth" using AI without there being bias or domain expertise & understanding, especially considering that we know LLMs hallucinate. Again, keep in mind that educated people (experts) can disagree on social claims. Sorry if this is discouraging, but I'm just trying to be realistic.
For half the history of life on Earth there were no multicellular animals at all[1]. Given how quickly life on Earth arrived I wouldn't be surprised if there were bacteria on Mars. But given how long it took Earth life to develop Eukaryotic cells I'd be surprised if Mars ever developed something as sophisticated as an amoeba. Still, Bacteria do leave fossils like stromatolites and some scientists even think some Mars rock parts look sort of like bacteria fossils[2]. But those are more ambiguous than little skeletons or shells.

It's not fair to say EEE in response to every apparently good thing Microsoft does.
One thing that has annoyed me is in the 1970s the Viking landers did experiments to check for the presence of life on Mars known as the Labeled Release experiments https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viking_lander_biological_exper... which dropped a nutrient solution with radioactive Carbon-14 to detect if there was any off gassing to detect if anything metabolized the soil. And both experiments showed positive results but it has been dismissed since chemical reactions could not be ruled out. But here is the thing, the experiments then did a sterilization control where they heated up the soil to 320 F for 3 hours and attempted the experiment again and no gasses were detected which is something you'd expect to see if the gasses were produced by microbes and not chemical processes.

Now is this a positive detection of life? No because other possible factors can not be ruled out. But what puzzles me is why we have never followed up with any further experiments to try and detect life? After the Viking missions we never conducted any further experiments that could rule out any other possible chemical reactions to get closer to confirming the presence of microbial life.

So I would say with the Labeled Release experiments coupled with the seasonal Methane detections strongly imply that there is still microbial extremophiles on Mars.
They would dump excess oil from Siberian drilling straight into rivers. This was even documented in a Vladimir Vysotsky song.
It seems they looked at the market, saw their 6% return on SC's and saw a lot of competition that would be drive down that low margin and be installing their NACS ports going forward anyway. If they can back away to to let 3rd party developers/funds build the low margin stuff, it could be a wise use of capital.

However, this is the ChargePoint model having 3rd parties buy/build/own/operate the stations and although Tesla's DC/AC charger builds are better, they will be confronted with the same issues ChargePoint has where station uptime is much lower due under 3rd party ownership because Tesla does not directly own and monitor the stations and it's up to the owner to maintain. The owners are more lax and the ports experience more downtime, disrepair. Literally the opposite of increasing SC uptime that was Elon's justification tweet on this team layoff. Maybe they can find a solution to the problem (only selling to large orgs/projects like they do with Megapack) but the likely outcome is the network will grow slower with outside capital but the quality/uptime is lower than before. And non Tesla SC stations/networks will be integrated into the Tesla dash like everyone other OEM does.
One of my favorite articles on this topic, "About those vector icons", goes into this issue and many more flaws in much more detail. There's nothing fundamentally wrong with vector icons, but it's not all that's needed for a one-size-fits-all solution.

> yay, likelihood that we are martians just went up a few basis points

I bet there's some non-life explanation, probably having to do with weird chemistry that happens on Mars over long periods, but is not so significant on Earth.

The article says the Earth-chemistry that creates these minerals involves the oxygen in the atmosphere, but it doesn't seem plausible to me that Mars's atmosphere was ever oxygenated. It took billions of years for the Earth's atmosphere to become oxygenated, and it sounds like Mars lost most of its atmosphere fairly quickly.
This should be a requirement for these sorts of grants, they should also be made publicly available.
I find it weird when somebody like this is punished by their country/employer. He must be very patriotic and loyal, at least, I assume he could just come work at a US university and be regarded as a rockstar.
But he is in China which is meant to be communism, isn't it? I used to believe communist governments would normally provide their senior scientists with at least a humble dorm room for free. What's the point of communism if they don't?
Once again, the actual intelligence is behind the keyboard, nudging the LLM to do the correct thing.

I couldn't agree more. My objection to the legislation around TT is purely that it's only addressing the abuse by TT when most (all?) other such services are equally problematic.

They did have it years ago. That's the insult.

Elon is specifically removing features and trying to sell a worse car to people. Here we are nearly a decade later and people are seriously asking "what's wrong with a Tesla??"

Well, have yall seen what the Highland Refresh has ___removed___? That's my point, its a worse car now.
I don't know exactly what the the person you're replying to had in mind, but support for different parts of the manifest varies (especially in Manifest V3). While it's possible to write a single manifest that works in all browsers (with warnings), doing so requires more than a little specialized knowledge.

For example, Firefox does not currently support the `optional_host_permissions` top level manifest key. To work around this, developers can declare their optional host permissions in both the `optional_host_permissions` array for Chrome compatibility and in the `optional_permissions` array for Firefox/Safari compatibility.

Another example is that currently only Chrome supports `background.service_worker` in stable releases. To work around this, developers can write their MV3 background scripts in a way that's compatible with both service workers and event pages, then declare both in the manifest like so:

```json
{
"background": {
"scripts": ["background.js"],
"service_worker: "background.js"
}
}
```

It's actually not just like federal laws preempting state laws. It's much stronger. States actually have a degree of sovereignty that can protect them from preemption in some cases. Local governments have none and are completely subordinated to the state governments.

There is also systemd-stub.

It is technically a bootloader. However it looks inside of itself for the kernel, ramdisk, and kernel commandline [0]. This means that you can use objcopy to put an existing kernel and ramdisk into a standalone EFI executable; without needing to recompile anything.

Dracut even has a "--uefi" option that will do all of that automatically.
