He doesn't seem to drive that fast, he drove at a constant speed only to stop at the very last second. Had he been driving too fast, he would have been right into the train and probably not here to post on Twitter.

The car didn't slow down even as the train was clearly visible. An attentive human would have not only seen the train but also the very obvious flashing lights and have absolutely not problem stopping in time.

EDIT: From the link, it seems FSD was set by the car to about 61~63 MPH on a 55 MPH road, which is the speed most people drive on ( https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/ap-fsd-related-crash... ). Considering the conditions, it is a little fast, but not unreasonably so. It took about 5 seconds from seeing the train to the crash,
most of it at constant speed, so, a distance of about 140m. At that speed, stopping distance is about 100m, enough to stop in time. And that's for the unlit train, lights can be seen from much further as they are all visible at the start of the video.

How are you defining productivity? Lots of people in the medical industry make very good wages. Lots of people in the tech industry do not have great wages.

Heath care is ~18% of GDP and growing...

The health care industry is tremendously efficient at sucking money out of your pocket for not great results.

At least with Apple, people are generally satisfied with the services rendered.

I find it very ironic that Americans seem to understand better as a culture that they need to diversity their investment portfolio, but at the same time seem to ignore that concept in their personal life more than almost any European.

It seems like the concept that there probably shouldn't be any single goal or purpose in life that needs to be maxed, and that life is a basket is foreign to most.
Trichinosis can kill you too. I can't find the story link but I read years ago that one of the few German POWs to die in captivity in the US during WWII at Camp Hearne in Texas died from eating undercooked pork which also sickened a couple of other POWs and maybe one of more of the guards.

With that said, pioneers and mountain men ate bear meat. They preferred bear paws due to the high fat content I think.
I agree. You can still make a great living just by sifting through the nuggets unearthed by people like Gauss, Euler, and Laplace, which continue to pay dividends centuries later, let alone inventing new math.

If the judges of the court grant the prosecutor’s application, the court will issue warrants and seek cooperation of its 124 member states and any willing cooperating states in enforcing them.

Your first point is much less of a big deal than you think. Cook it thoroughly (easiest way is to simply grind up the meat first) and you’re fine.

I don’t agree with your second point. It’s pretty good, especially spring bear. That said, I avoid bears that eat a lot of spawning salmon in the fall.

People have eaten bears for literally millennia, especially indigenous North Americans. It’s not some recent thing that we are wrong to do. They are a natural prey animal in eg BC, where they live in high densities.

What if we don't have the same spirit any longer? Nobody is going to acknowledge that publicly at NASA but they are acknowledging it by their actions. What if people who had "spirit" went to make youtube videos, work for Musk, Wall Street or Google? It takes some time to gauge the stickiness and depth of bureaucratic muck, but after a few years people can see it, and move on to other things. Guess who's left? Those who don't have much spirit left.

"South Africa grants Putin and Brics leaders diplomatic immunity for summit" - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/may/30/south-africa-g...

"...South Africa has issued blanket diplomatic immunity to all leaders attending an August summit, meaning Vladimir Putin might be able to travel to Johannesburg and not fear the country acting on an international criminal court warrant for his arrest..."

It's the ultimate hypocrisy on South Africa to undermine the same court where is currently arguing, and a major legal failure on the court to accept South Africa claims.
that's an inane misreading
I failed a system design interview for saying use postgres for the whole solution. App data to support about a millions users and a job/task table to support asynchronous tasks. The throughput was a few tasks per user per day.

I’m not sure if this is related, but recently I began to *omit* this viewport <meta> tag from the <head> of my sites, so that I can pinch-and-zoom instead of having a fixed scale set and needing to mess with text size controls:

I find it makes sites much more pleasant to browse.
Indeed – though many AAA games use in-house engines.
That's clearly a typo, not a confabulation in the usual sense.

You could really even frame how it happens the same way. There's some small, nonzero probability I'll hit an adjacent key and make a typo that's context dependent, just like if you're doing sampling there is a small chance of picking a token that has a lower probability, here "urine" instead of "liquids".

It's a slip up but a very different one than confidently stating an entirely made up thing.
> Israel administers multiple territories, some of them democratically (e.g. Israel proper, where Arabs are citizens with equal legal rights), and some of them undemocratically (e.g. the West Bank).

This is one aspect of the whole conflict that has always seriously irked me.

The West effectively treats Israel as if it were the legal guardian of the Palestinians: Israel controls the entire territory, controls the tax revenue, population registry, borders, airspace, energy and water supply, can precisely restrict what (is allowed to) go in and out, can construct or demolish buildings at will, can arrest people at will, or even shoot them, can arbitrarily set the rules for court proceedings, etc. Western and neighbor countries fully support this view, to the point where, if Palestinians import or export goods into their own territories without Israel's authorisation, this is called "smuggling".

Yet at the same time, Israel seems to have no obligation to actually consider or represent the interests of the Palestinians: They are not allowed to vote in Israeli elections; they don't have any representation in the Knesset; laws can be passed that arbitrarily disadvantage them without loss of democratic status; Israeli politicians openly call the Palestinians "our bitter enemies".

In any situation where any individual person were the legal guardian of another person and at the same time called them "their bitter enemy", we'd be deeply alarmed and suspect an abusive relationship. Yet in the case of Israel and the Palestinians, that's "how things are supposed to be" and everyone who tries to change that status quo is the problem.

This feels extremely wrong to me.

(The UN is clearer here: They give Israel the specific legal role of "occupation force" and point to various obligations towards the occupied population that come with that role. However, the western countries somehow both deny that any occupation even takes place and demand that Israel must continue to have full control over the territories - which is contradictory in itself)
You're right. I wondered at one point why we didn't get banned, or if we did but didn't notice. I don't know, I like to discuss things, and I'm not sure what's the exact point where I should've called it quits, although it's clear the discussion got derailed somewhere and became pointless. Maybe you should ban me, and I mean this in a completely non combative way - if I can't figure out when to stop, maybe I should spend my time somewhere else. Or spend my time on something else - that the whole thing didn't bring anything is at least one thing that's obvious.

I'm not a programmer, and when I write a program it's imperative that it's structured right and works predictably, because I have to answer for the numbers it produces. So LLMs have basically no use for me on that front.

I don't trust any LLM to summarize articles for me as it will be biased (one way or another) and it will miss the nuance of the language/tone of the article, if not outright make mistakes. That's another one off the table.

Although I don't use them much for this, I've found 2 things they're good at:
-Coming up with "ideas" I wouldn't come up with
-Summarizing hundreds (or thousands) of documents from a non-standard format (ie human readable reports, legal documents) that regular expressions wouldn't work with, and putting them into something like a table. But still, that's only when I care about searching or discovering info/patterns, not when I need a fully accurate "parser".

I'm really surprised on how useless LLMs turned out to be for my daily life to be honest. So far at least.

the previous context menu had issues sometimes with network and other slow drives - it would need to wait for multiple callbacks to complete before it could render. In extreme cases, this could cause delays of many seconds before the menu could be drawn.

Shifting these into "More Options" lets the menu be drawn with more consistent speed.

We had pretty much the same deal at my last job. We had somewhere around 50 services that ought to have been one. Batch processes would take hours as they made 10s of millions of internal API calls (which could also fail of course) instead of running for a minute or two just doing the work with a couple SQL queries. Who knows how many hours wasted debating the boundaries and contracts between services when those layers didn't need to exist in the first place. Millions a year spent on hardware. All in the name of "scalability" when we also had a few hundred rps, and the thing obviously had scaling issues exactly because it was being done that way. Very frustrating.
I agree, and it's strange to see 'Copilot' everywhere. By the way, does anyone know how the development/update of GitHub Copilot is going? I tried to look for a blog from the engineering team or something similar, but I can't find anything.
Are there any successful tales of Alaskan homesteading? It seems like we fetishize those foolhardy lone wolves like this couple or Alex McCandless from Into the Wild, but where are all those people who moved out there and actually managed to live happy, simple lives?

One of my favorite book series is Woodswoman, about a lady who set out into Vermont to build herself a lakeside cabin from scratch and made a living off maple farming. The several books detail her trials and tribulations, but also her joyful swims and happy encounters with the neighbors.

I would love to hear about more encounters like that in Alaska, not just the people who trek out there but never make it.

> My understanding is that the ICC is only supposed to do this for countries/areas without a functioning and functionally independent judicial system.

That seems to be a misunderstanding based on an improper generalization of Article 17 of the Rome Statute: the kind of inadmissibility you refer to applies not based on general capacity of the state but of action in the specific case:

---[Art 17]

1. Having regard to paragraph 10 of the Preamble and article 1, the Court shall determine that a case is inadmissible where:

(a) The case is being investigated or prosecuted by a State which has jurisdiction over it, unless the State is unwilling or unable genuinely to carry out the investigation or prosecution;

(b) The case has been investigated by a State which has jurisdiction over it and the State has decided not to prosecute the person concerned, unless the decision resulted from the unwillingness or inability of the State genuinely to prosecute;

(c) The person concerned has already been tried for conduct which is the subject of the complaint, and a trial by the Court is not permitted under article 20, paragraph 3;

(d) The case is not of sufficient gravity to justify further action by the Court.

2. In order to determine unwillingness in a particular case, the Court shall consider, having regard to the principles of due process recognized by international law, whether one or more of the following exist, as applicable:

(a) The proceedings were or are being undertaken or the national decision was made for the purpose of shielding the person concerned from criminal responsibility for crimes within the jurisdiction of the Court referred to in article 5;

(b) There has been an unjustified delay in the proceedings which in the circumstances is inconsistent with an intent to bring the person concerned to justice;

(c) The proceedings were not or are not being conducted independently or impartially, and they were or are being conducted in a manner which, in the circumstances, is inconsistent with an intent to bring the person concerned to justice.

3. In order to determine inability in a particular case, the Court shall consider whether, due to a total or substantial collapse or unavailability of its national judicial system, the State is unable to obtain the accused or the necessary evidence and testimony or otherwise unable to carry out its proceedings.

Liquid cooling itself doesn't really cool anything, it's actually all about being able to move heat around so you can have an absolutely insane amount of radiator because it doesn't have to fit in the space around the CPU. If your radiator isn't enormous (i.e. at least 360mm, if not larger), is too thin, or is itself not getting proper airflow to actually dissipate the energy then it's probably not doing much better than a large air cooler could do. Well the other thing liquid loops add is they give a larger thermal mass (i.e. takes a lot longer to heat up and can absorb bursts better) but that doesn't really matter 2 hours in.

PE avg. holding period reaches an all-time high of 5.8 years
Hey everyone,

We recently analyzed deal data for entries and exits for private equity investments in Europe.

And we found that the holding periods of investments has reached an all time high of 5.8 years (up from 4.9 years in 2020).

A few other interesting data points:

1. 56% of assets that exited in 2023/24 stayed longer than 5 years in the portfolio up from 40% in 2020

2. Consumer assets have seen the largest jump in holding periods. On average it takes a Consumer asset 6.3 years to exit. Assets in Energy & Materials (6.3 years) and Industrials (5.8 years) are also characterized by long holding periods.

3. Assets with longest holding periods (7+ years and often unsold) tend to have slower growth rates and lower margins (by a third).
