Sure they did. The tribe representative they interviewed in the original nytimes article said they had minors watching porn, and only backpedaled afterwards in this article because it make them look bad. Minors sharing porn in group chats is insane enough, but that it only took a little exposure to the internet for a small remote tribe to start is even more telling.
> It’s incredible that modern governments, being so incompetent, corrupt, and dysfunctional, are still a lot better than how they were in the past.

It is baffling to me as well. But the likely answer is that humans in the past were just even more incompetent, corrupt, and dysfunctional. It makes a lot of sense if you start looking at how things were done in medieval times. Often rumors/disinformation would travel faster between cities than a horse could.

Its really not hard! I am with GP in that most scifi with FTL comes off as silly, perhaps fun and well written but not to be taken seriously in the sense of its worldbuilding being immersive or intriguing.

Almost all my favorite books almost exclusively occupy settings with laws of physics that are internally consistent and believable and therefore have no FTL. See "The Expanse", "Three Body", "Blindsight", "The Sunflower Cycle", "Rendezvous with Rama" and too many others to name.

Product recall insurance is a relatively common rider on general liability insurance. I don’t know if that’s what drives Waymo’s decision here but it’s pretty common for such policies to require the insured to play nice with regulators and not pull any stunts, otherwise they’ll fight any payout.
The person you are replying to asked a very useful question, and you supplied a useful answer. I don’t detect any snarky tone in their comment.
I haven't dug into it, cause I don't really care.. but I imagine that fb/meta tracks more than clicks. If I were them, I'd have js on the page that tracks your scrolling, and pays attention to the posts you 'hover' over for longer.

I bet that's just one of the ways they track behavior on their platform. So if you slow down to check out the ladies, I bet more show up, even if you don't click.
Typically they have radios and so the truck asks the following driver to do something.
I have some pu-erh right here, and ripe is the word, it has a stable fragrance. Sadly I don't have any bourbon but I think I'll try this out tomorrow.
Due to the lack of ABI stability, the resulting dynamic library is tied to the exact binary hash of the Rust compiler (which includes the dependencies rustc was built from).

Those dynamic libraries will also not remain ABI stable if their code changes (because Rust's semver specifically applies to the public API, but the public API is free to pass around structs with private fields, which may alter the layout drastically even for minor semver-compatible changes).

So this helps with some aspects (such as libraries being reused between binaries, reducing disk usage).

But it does not help with the issue most discussed in this thread: that of security updates (all libraries have to be rebuilt whenever rustc changes or a dependency changes, all programs (potentially the entire operating system) have to be redownloaded by all users, etc).

> The problem with thinking everyone else is wrong is that usually it turns out they are not.

I don't know that this is objectively true. The more accurate thing to say is that sometimes it's better to be wrong in the same way as everyone else. VC investing seems to be mostly based on chasing trends and "pattern matching", so trying to do anything heterodox is going to be an uphill battle.
Its a different risk profile and a different level set of responsibility. Founder has the entirety of the company on their shoulders. Early employee has a lot - but they can leave and join another firm if they want.

However my original comment was pushback about how easy it is to take VC money (comments I have seen) and how low-risk being a founder is - which is patently false.
> However, people tend to downplay porn viewing habits, as with anything that they are embarrassed about

This is justification for inventing an issue and then attributing it to them.

> It seems reasonable to think that if someone tells a reporter that he's upset that porn is being shared in group chats, that there's a good chance the level of usage is in fact greater.

It is not reasonable to start with a conclusion and then find any road possible to get there.
8 Byte (assuming 128 bit instead of 64 bit) but yeah.

It's not quite as simple as saving 8 bytes per row though. It's 8 bytes for the UUID, plus 8 for at least the PK, plus 8 more for any other keys the UUID is in.

Then you need to do that for any foreign-key-fields and keys those are in as well.

However, unless your table has very few non-uuid columns, the rest of the table size will dwarf the extra n*8 bytes here. And if you are storing any blobs (like pictures, documents etc) then frankly all the uuids won't add up to anything.

In summary, whether using uuids or not is right for you depends a Lot on your context. An Insert Only log table, with a billion rows, is a very different use case to say a list of employees or customers.

Generally I'm very comfortable with uuids for tables of say less than 100m rows. Very high inserting though suggests tables bigger than that, and perhaps benefits from different strategies.

When it comes to data stored in multiple places (think on-phone first, syncd to cloud, exported from multiple places to consolidated BI systems), uuids solve the Lot of problems.

Context is everything.
Hey! The idea sounds interesting and I would be down to try it out. Any idea when that will be possible?

I'm not sure "In Rust" serve any marketing value. A product's success rarely has to do with the use of a programming language, if not at all. I understand the arguments made by Paul Graham on the effectiveness of programming languages, but specifically for a workflow manager, a user like me cares literally zero about which programming language the workflow system uses even if I have to hack into the internal of the system, and latency really matters a lot less than throughput.

>First of all, we're talking about pre-IPO startups, so you can't just sell the stock

This is often but not universally true - about 40% of companies allow you to do so, and about 40% of those that allow you to do so allow those sales on secondary markets [1]

>company loses money because it gave equity to employees is nonsensical

You lose money in the sense that the gains beyond the strike price which you would have realized had you not sold the call option are your losses: you could’ve not sold the option and profited on that rise instead. You have lost the difference in the profit between these two investment plans.

> You're not giving away equity

I was responding to someone asking “why don’t they just give the equity instead as compensation?”, as opposed to writing call options against it - assuming that as a company you want to incentivize workers to work by setting aside some fraction of your equity which they may receive, these are the reasons a company might prefer to “give” employees that equity with options, instead of discounted equity or stock grants

I always just thought of telepathy in science fiction as being like faster-than-light travel: clear nonsense, but a very convenient and interesting method of avoiding physical realities that interfere with telling certain types of stories. It's an aspect of the "fiction" part of science fiction.

But, relatedly, I think that a certain kind of category error happens that can play into this as well: a lot of science fiction is actually fantasy, just in a technological setting. Star Wars, for instance, is not science fiction so much as it's fantasy.

About a month or two ago Alexa started telling us it didn't understand "stop" while it played the audio we didn't ask for (Alexa's voice recognition is really poor). I had to unplug it.

I probably could have used the app to stop it but I didn't think about that at the time.
fascinating. adding this to my reading list. thank you!
I feel like you are correct while thinking Apple's stance is the smarter play. My family ditched the entire Amazon ecosystem because Alexa was so utterly useless. Keeping people generally happy and entertained creates a positive mentality on the entire company as a whole. Let me tell you, having the kids on board is huge and prob a missed opportunity. You could literally be training kids to be little Amazon shills if this was done right. Mine loved talking to Alexa and then she got less and less intelligent and we swapped to Google's products -- same story there. Now it is pretty much a weather-bot and that is all.

What seems weird/odd to me is (assuming I got it correct) OP seemed quite important/essential to the working of the company, if not the most important technical person. 10M is nothing to laugh at, but I'd much rather get 500k from a company valued at 5M than 10M from a 1B corp if I was the largest contributor.

The new mode of updating less often greatly reduces the need to charge.
I'm glad more renewables are coming online, but that's not the 24/7 base capacity that is really needed to fully replace fossil fuels. Solar and wind are cheap now, but they only generate power when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing. Thus, energy storage on a huge scale is needed if they are to replace fossil fuels. Power grid unreliability is politically untenable. People will march headfirst into the destruction of industrial civilization, ignoring the warnings of climate scientists, before they will accept an electrical grid that is offline for 5% of the time. For as difficult as nuclear is, storage is much harder yet. Nuclear is proven tech. It works at scale. The main obstacles political, but they are much more easily overcome than objections people would have with an unreliable grid.
What'd be the proper term then? In french when, for example, many cars are sent back to the dealerships (or factory) to fix something, it's called a "campagne de rappel ("recall campaign").

P.S: I've got nothing against "recall" being recalled so that it can be fixed ; )
Is that true? If so, that's extremely interesting. However, for popular chargers, it seems unlikely to help pay the first charge of the day.
The world is this even saying.
Also think about systems that are "beyond one database". Like data that lives in multiple places at the same time (on phone local storage, in database, consolidated and syncd either other databases etc.)

In other words once you move beyond '1 sql database' they become important.

> My best guess is they're lying

It would be extremely silly to lie about an implementation detail that doesn't matter in an official recall filing with an agency currently investigating you for your reporting of incidents like this.

It could also just be everything gets a damage score, including reflection artifacts that aren't really there or paper garbage in the road, and in this case the pole was identified incorrectly, given a low score, and the car thought it could keep driving.

The verge seems to quote the filing, it would be nice if they had linked it. I can't find it from searching.
Years back, I don't know 15 - 17 years ago, I got hired as a .Net developer. I worked with people a lot smarter than me, and some who just didn't really knew what the hell they where doing. But everyone is nice and help each other. One day a less experience colleague is asking whole bunch of small trivial questions, one after another, for the duration of the day. Me and another co-worker, busy with our own stuff, answer the questions as quickly and succinctly as possible. At the end of the afternoon the guy finally ask if we could look at his code, because he can't really make it work. Every question he had asked was a small building block to whatever he was working on, but now he was stuck because in his context he was asking the wrong questions and every time something wasn't working he'd just attempt to slap on more code. There was no design, no rational plan for how this was even suppose to work.

In this case we took our colleague to a whiteboard, and helped him do an actual design and helped him ask the right questions. LLMs won't question what you're doing, they will happily answer all your questions and help you pile on line after line of broken logic.
I have always hunted for things like this. In my childhood, I collected calendars with quotes from great people. These clocks have intrigued me very much
I'd say that it's easier to count the pre-existing tracks:

...only 2 out of 11 were available before the game as they were early 1996 releases

- The Prodigy "Firestarter (Instrumental)"

- The Chemical Brothers "Loops of Fury"

...maybe a third depending on your view of The Chemical Brothers track.

The game was released late 1996.

...as far as I am aware:

- FSOL "We Have Explosive" (was released as a single in 1997, the year after the game)

- FSOL "Landmass" (wasn't available anywhere else)

- Fluke "V6" (not released elsewhere, though there's a higher fidelity release on the Wipeout Soundtrack CD)

- Fluke "Atom Bomb" (the game version is quite different than the single/chart
version that released after the game)

- The Chemical Brothers "Dust Up Beats" (a totally different version than the one
previously released on vinyl in 1994) https://forum.thechembase.com/index.php?topic=309.0

- Photek "The Third Sequence" (did eventually get a vinyl release after the 2097 soundtrack)

- Underworld's "Tin There" (the full length version of this was released on the Pearl's Girl single shortly after the game release)

- Cold Storage "Canada" (written for the game)

- Cold Storage "Body in Motion" (written for the game)
> Nobody wants to go up against a very charismatic phony in what will almost certainly turn into a battle of wits instead of a battle of facts

I’ve met some incredibly unlikeable fraudsters. The bottom line is pursuing them would mean giving up months of my life in a tedious process. In many cases, the fraud seems stupid enough that it’s not okay, but just not worth sacrificing life time over.
its not done this way because the founders want to screw you, its done this way because of a bunch of arcane tax laws. Its complicated to explain, but the origin of all of these weird "options not equity" and "90 days to expire" type things are because of US tax law. If the startup could give you shares without putting the employee and the company both in a very puntantive tax situation they would.
> They probably need to inspect every well and make sure it's properly plugged with concrete, not just a cap on top.

This is the real take-away here. Not some narrative that fracking is definitely bad (it might be, might not be), but that The TXRRC needs to be more on top of continuing to monitor and/or plug wells before these things happen.

This tool is like all other tools in that expert practitioners extract value from it and novices consider it useless. Fascinating. The advent of search engines was similar with many remarking on how if you searched for something sometimes you'd find websites that were wrong. Things change and yet stay the same. At the time I thought age was the discriminator. Today I know it's not that. It's something else.
It's hard to make this point without a normative argument, but by analogy to land, a company is not only the land but also the workers laboring on it. It's reminiscent of serfdom. The serfs are attached to the land, and they own very little of it (if at all, and with many strings attached), even though their continued work is a large reason why the land would be considered valuable in the market in the first place.
I think your wife would like it!
My anecdotal experience regarding pay has been the opposite, at least here in Seattle. The employers who require people to come in a few days a week are all big corps who pay quite well.

I wonder if the relative pay depends on the cost of living. If you're in a small town with limited local opportunities then you can get a higher salary by searching for remote work. But if you're in a high cost of living city then the employers who require you to be there have to pay enough to make it worthwhile.
Broccoli and kale are both brassica oleracea and are included under cabbage (another cultivar of the species). It has support for aliases though, so I don't get why it doesn't use that in this case. Broccoli is my archetypal brassica and I always get hung up when it isn't there.
Implicit conversions in any language are often a source of hard to find bugs. So in general, I find most people agree with the swift design that does not allow such conversions implicitly.
Voluntary trade benefits both parties by definition, so, yup. That's exactly my assumption, and it is the correct one.
> They were also the first to usb-c nirvana

Intel says hi.

> People look down on the move to usb-c which I don’t quite get

People loved Thunderbolt for replacing Firewire. They hated Apple's choice because these USB-C Macbooks shipped with precisely zero USB-A ports and relegated every user to carrying around a dongle.

The year is 2024, we're almost a decade out from Apple going all-in on USB-C and the predominant peripheral connector is still type-A. I don't like it either, but plugging our ears and pretending like it's not a problem is silly and only makes consumers mad.

> and reminder that in classic usb fashion, usb4 still doesn’t even guarantee Pcie tunneling support.

That is in fact the correct default to use. Ever heard of Thunderspy? https://thunderspy.io/
It's probably wise as a startup to not go for Salesforce parity while building out the core roadmap. You can build a decent business catching new companies and paying attention to their needs unencumbered by the expectations of "switchers".

I agree with your points about what people want / expect from Salesforce. Would kind of be cool to see a CRM have AppExchange + SF data model interoperability.
The problem with such messaging services is that they aren't universal. You have to find out and install what others are using, and then remember which service is used by which person. That's really the thing that makes OTT services undesirable to me.

SMS/MMS, for all of its myriad faults, is something you know that everyone has.
> Then, good luck running some badly coded scripts to get the results reported in the article.

I think even this part is unlikely? My dad was a statistician involved in research and he didn't provide copies of his SAS programs/scripts to authors.

I believe the papers would list what tests he performed but there'd be no easy to way to reproduce the exact script for tests (and certainly no easy way to reproduce exact charts/graphs/maps).
Always surprised how little Alexa changed over the years from initial version.
Both on software and hardware there could have been so much possibilities and learning from years of user feedback.
Appstore and skills deserted from years of broken to unusable functionality.
Hardware remain stuck to initial speaker version where there was possibility to replace so many dedicated boxes around house each connected to power supply providing singular function - Access Point, routers, smart device gateway, streaming device, NAS for backup or private cloud, etc

Last one failure for entire BigTech where desire to maintain control prevented any form of standardization or interoperability to the point where hobbyist open source solutions are now leading on how to do smart home right way and not abandon user base in 6 months after release.
