I've tried FSD enough that I can say with perfect confidence that it is orders of magnitude less safe than an average human. Even a drunk one.

Every few miles of driving it would do something that would most likely be a fender bender at minimum. That's pretty risky. Compare to human drivers, which average roughly 1 fatality for every 100,000,000 miles driven. And that's including drunk drivers.

My guess is FSD in the current state would probably average 1 fatality for every 100 miles or so, if you were not closely supervising it. Assuming none of the wrecks along the way disabled the car.
>France just lost $10-20B over the arrest of Pavel Durov.

That's not what 'suspended' means.
Now this is art!
GTK, frankly, has been going downhill when it comes to customization (including, but not limited to, themeing) for at least a decade now. Many GTK themes out there today do not support GTK4 (the page you linked to is confusing; even though it's the "GTK3/4 Themes" category, many don't support GTK4).

GTK has more and more become a stripped-down toolkit that requires you to write or use a "platform library" (like libadwaita) in order to do useful things. Judging by the deprecations in GTK4, as well as statements from GTK developers, GTK5 will be even more stripped-down. This just makes it harder for non-GNOME projects to use it.

On top of that, each major GTK release comes with drastic changes to how classes of widgets work, which for smaller teams could mean years of work to migrate to the new version. I don't begrudge the GTK developers their ability to make all of these sorts of changes; after all, I'm not paying them for any kind of support or feature set. But it's still frustrating for smaller teams that don't realistically have the ability to take on the maintenance burden of an entire UI toolkit.
My tool (PDFSyntax[1], mentioned in this thread) is a Python library that is able to both inspect and transform PDF files.

Depending on your transformation use case, you may write an incremental update with only a few bytes at the end of the original file instead of rewriting it entirely. To my knowledge this feature of the PDF specification is often overlooked and not a lot of libraries implements it.

It is a work in progress and I have not developed functions for images yet, though.

> Now you are in a maze of twisty little compositors, all different, all squabbling between themselves about this or that, and in the meantime nothing ever works.

I was about to mention that this is using wl_roots, like every other new Wayland compositor that isn't GNOME or KDE (and i remember reading some comment that even some KDE devs want to switch to wl_roots), but that was actually an assumption of mine (because it sounds like the sane(st) choice if you decide to make a new compositor) and turns out that, no, they're not using wl_roots but instead something called Smithay (which is not wl_roots bindings for Rust).

Out of curiosity, has anyone ever used these types of laptops for programming?
It more hazardous when people discriminate, and the parent and child don't get help. They get strung along, and kicked, and society acts like, oh, what? Your hurt, or disenfranchised? Aww, too bad!!
could this not be an "oh no! anyway" type thing? of course it probably stings and wounds their pride but they can't run their justice system on the whims of foreign governments wishes about a foreign app?

it's also weird that uae, russia and others rely so much on this tech, esp given that it's probably compromised (both at central level and in individual conversations and groups level) (and private key encryption is moot in the latter case) and how easy it would be to develop a homegrown secure alternative
If the chat is not end-to-end encrypted, which Telegram “cloud” chats are not, then by definition Telegram (the company) has access to the chats. Full stop.

The one I had in mind is a city-wide chat group with more than 2000 members in which people share stuff they want to give away or sell for cheap.
As soon as their servers shut down so will their cars.
Tesla as far as I know also requires connection to operate.
Correct me if I am wrong.
It’s not monopolistic to not support shitty browsers with little user base. This isn’t even the basis for the current antitrust ruling against Google, for what it’s worth.

As the parent comment points out, if YouTube isn’t buggy for most of their users, why do they have to worry about it? We don’t expect either Microsoft or game devs to ensure their stuff works well with wine on Linux.
UAE, not Saudi.
man that is a super informative comment. I worked a shitty fast food job back in the day and I always felt like that was the hardest job I ever did. Literally just non stop work.
Same. If we ever get (bike+AV)-only roads in SF, I'll be happy to let my children to to school on them. Very trustworthy cars.

https://automerge.org/docs/documents/conflicts/

"The only case Automerge cannot handle automatically, because there is no well-defined resolution, is when users concurrently update the same property in the same object (or, similarly, the same index in the same list). In this case, Automerge picks one of the concurrently written values as the "winner", and it ensures that this winner is the same on all nodes"

"The object returned by getConflicts contains the conflicting values, both the "winner" and any "losers". You might use the information in the conflicts object to show the conflict in the user interface."

To me, this seems identical to how git works. Specifically git fetch (does automatic resolution storing all of the changes), vs git merge (showing the conflicts in the user interface).
I looked into the fake issues while looking for Mitutoyo tools for our friends kid that started first year engineering. This is difficult as the counterfeits look almost identical.

1. went to Mitutoyo website to get list of authorized sellers

2. surprised Amazon itself is on the list

3. Purchased a number of authentic Mitutoyo calipers and micrometers from Amazon itself

4. Ran down Clough42 list of 17 signs to double check if the tool is fake:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KG6I2gNGVwM

5. Successfully registered equipment on Mitutoyo website

6. Checked quality on reference standards

Note, Starrett has a website with an estore, so is far easier to verify NIST certificate.

If the work is low tolerance, than accuracy and repeatability won't matter anyway. However, when it comes to metrology or PPE the high-end products set the best possible outcome for your workmanship and safety.

Hagiographies are exhausting, and not exactly tech news in my opinion.

I understand that people love signal, but I don't understand why: outside of what appears to be propaganda such as this.

btw; Downvotes only make my belief stronger that unironically there are actual shills on HN. The way people are bleeding to defend it as “the one true secure messenger” is about as convincing as Epstein killing himself.
> Accidents are not good, but how does FSD safety compare to human drivers in general?

We'll never really know and tech companies aren't trustworthy.

A new software update will invalidate what we've observed about the last version and we'll be back to knowing nothing.

Humans in aggregate are predictable and nothing will make that entire fleet more dangerous overnight.

Legacy car companies came about in an era when they faced accountability from both consumers and lawmakers that we can no longer count on.

The UAE always toes the line and does what it's told - it's political theatre, nothing more.
I agree, but this made me think:

Is it better for the herd to hear these people and try to convince them through talking, or to push them away/hiding/ridiculing them, potentially causing the Streisand effect?

If I'm ordering a particular product from Amazon, is there a way to know if commingling is done? Does Amazon commingle everything fulfilled by Amazon by default, or just high-volume items?

> it's also weird that uae, russia and others rely so much on this tech

Because they're not gonna use american alternatives and Russia is playing politics while UAE provided refuge to Pavel Durov when he fled from Russia.

In fact, Russia has tried to ban Telegram in the past but accidentally ended up nuking the country's internet instead. Since then, they've lifted the ban since most people in Russia and neighbouring countries use this app.

It's also used widely in Iran and countries where there's government oppression.
An example to the UAE citizens that their government will protect them. Sense of citizenship is worth $20B. Plus, it's not that UAE actually lost this money. Neither did France. They may lose/delay $20B in revenue.
Yes, of course there are people who really want to do those. But op was presenting their main point of view related to "the slow evaporation" part.

Like op, more and more people can't get past the idea of starting or contributing to FOSS is no longer worth their time, due to various reasons, such as: their free labor of love was turned into another corporate money making tool.
I know people who like it but the expectations need to be totally different from the marketing. You're spending $10K or whatever for a better (in many cases) system that still requires you to pay attention in general.

As MIT's James Leonard said almost 10 years ago now, he didn't expect to see a true self-driving system in his lifetime. Arguably it's getting closer in a few areas. But it's a fantasy that the typical teenager won't need to learn to drive in most places without significant compromises.

And there's probably a component of people who have come to be feeling very betrayed because they're not getting a reasonably near-term future they thought they were promised.
Cerebras Enters AI Inference Blows Away Tiny Nvidia H100 GPUs by Besting HBM
Makes me think of how I can’t get Microsoft Copilot to answer question like “Why does the media get excited about Prime Day when the deals aren’t so good?” (It started and did pretty good then seemed to realize what was happening and it erased its output) or “Why do furries have bad taste in art?” (ends conversation)
Not to mention crime like theft, fraud, burglaries. But yes, a perpetual underclass has giant negative externalities. The status quo is deeply ingrained to the American psyche - the risk of someone taking advantage of handouts trumps all other concerns.

Not having public bathrooms, but clean up shit from the streets. Not having preventative health care, but still providing legally mandated ambulance rides and critical care. Letting poor people who get an unexpected expense (say medical or car breaks down) fall into unemployment, homelessness and crime or – costliest of all – the prison industrial complex.

Paying the bill isn’t the problem. People are happy to overspend public funds, so this isn’t related to small government or just general tax aversion. The problem is simply that someone might get something they didn’t deserve. So in a perverted way, it’s a kind of a moralistic obsession with fairness.
Indeed no worries about pointing that out! - there are lots of things that could optimize the RAM requirements, and especially reduce the runtime. Since the overall runtime is pretty quick to getting a single answer (3 hours) vs spending more time optimizing.. but absolutely there is a lot left on the table.

I think with some good optimization you could reduce the runtime significantly, especially on modern hardware.

As for RAM limitations - You are correct the only limitation is just that with the RAM I have I would need to do more iterations. It would be possible to do this in much less RAM with more iterations, or the reverse of course.

I was fond of solving the problem in RAM just as a way to limit the scope of the problem... but SSDs are indeed pretty fast at streaming data like this.
I washed dishes in a downtown tower with four restaurants, all sharing one kitchen. The output of the dishwasher took four people, mostly because delivering the dishes across the huge kitchen distances was time consuming. I had a lot of generalized anxiety, and so I liked complex physical challenges. I eventually replaced all four dishwashers. Took a lot of intense speed and strategic dish delivery. I came very close to the dishes coming out going back into the loading area again, and that's where I needed the greatest speed. Over the years I've found other people also dealt with their anxiety by seeking out intense sports or sports-like physical activities that facilitated seeking higher and higher levels of mastery.
>They opened them, installed malware, returned the product ... lots of stolen bank credentials.

Absolutely terrifying.
I wonder if you could do something with Bloom filters similar to:

filters = {}
candidates = []
for i in range(len(pi)):
block = pi[i:i+10]
hash_prefix = block[:4]
try:
bloom = filters[hash_prefix]
except KeyError:
filters[hash_prefix] = BloomFilter().add(block)
candidates.append((i, block))
continue
if block in bloom:
candidates.append((i, block))
else:
bloom.add(block)

Basically, make one pass through to build a list of statistically likely candidates to evaluate later. Then use full string matching on those candidates to find the real matching sequences.

That might be helpful here because Bloom filters can say "we might have seen this string before" or "we definitely have not seen it before". That may greatly reduce the amount of storage you need.
If Waymo is as good as you claim why don't they release data on the number of manual interventions?

They didn't even release the video when a Waymo hit a bike while turning left at an intersection a few months ago.
The last time answered a question on Stack Overflow it got rejected.

I was using an unpopular Google API which was returning an unexpected error with a weird code. There was an unanswered SO question about the exact issue from years ago.

I found the answer to the problem in some open source library and added an answer to the SO question with a couple sentences and a link to the source code. My answer was immediately rejected.

There was a way to flag it to ask for review which I did but got no response. I ended up going to meta.stackexchange to ask for an explanation. Finally, after multiple people discussed about it the answer was approved. When I asked why a valid answer was rejected in the first place the response was "links on old questions are often spam and mods just auto-reject".

I won't bother contributing in the future if it takes that much effort to answer. BTW I had something like 20k karma.
That is not certain. Russia has to say something and is exploiting the situation for propaganda. If it turns out that he was actually cooperating with the CIA, they'd happily give him the polonium treatment and claim France did it.
Signal has a toggle for censorship resistant routing, if I'm not mistaken. I believe it works quite well in most places, including China?

It's a posture, either they wanted to cancel or they just want to make a point. The deal will resume after everything settles down.

What is the Daily Guardian and where's the article's references, quotes, or even links to official statements? Not to say this article isn't truthful but it seems like a big claim to make with zero sourcing.

I used to use Thoughbooks every day at work while I was working as an EMT. I kinda have a love/hate relationship with them. I loved their ruggedness. They can fall from the stretcher to the ground, you can sit on them and they even work when it's raining on them. But everything else is not that great. The keyboard feels awful, the touchscreen sometimes didn't work (which was awful because the application was designed for touchscreens) and the trackpad is tiny compared to other laptops. Still they're better than the alternatives that other cities used. Documenting with pen and paper is exhausting, iPad aren't as rugged and their on screen keyboard is even worse and smartphones just don't appear that professional.

I have fond memories of checking out the local comic store in Berkeley, CA in the 90's, after lunch once a week, to see if the new Dishwasher was in. If it was, I knew I'd have a great time that evening reading his exploits and learning a lot of history. He'd often include a history lesson about local labor relations over the last century. Not always, but sometimes.

I have all of them in a box somewhere. I, of course, also have his book on my shelf.

IMO, Dishwasher Pete is a national treasure.
I started my IT career in emergency medical services. It was amazing to see the beating these computers can take. I have seen toughbooks (Panasonic, GETAC) survive after being run over by an ambulance, fall off the back of an ambulance at high speed, etc. They are very modular and easy to fix.
Both sources are debatable
> If someone developed a warp drive, and 25% of the time it turned the operator into jelly, we wouldn’t sit here talking exclusively about jelly. We’d talk about how warp drive is cool and what the path to fixing stuff is

What? Who? We'd ask why the hell people are being put in it.

The hackers of yore, the ones we respect, weren't terrorists. When they phreaked the phone company they didn't try to take down 911.

From the video, it's hard to see what happened there. It's in the middle of an intersection. It kind of looks like the Waymo vehicle was attempting a left turn but something prevented it from finishing it.
Telegram is the best way to get on the ground news or content, and what people in the area think, only filtered by that chat’s moderators which is basically limited to interpersonal problems

Israel and IDF content is over there

Palestinian and Hamas content is over there

Ukrainian

Russian

All in separate feeds that you can just switch between

Its been very useful for me as there is so much jargon and slang in other languages that their respective media (if said media company even exists) would never use, and with LLM’s translating I can ask and learn the context of those slang words and find more content from actual humans

Whats irrelevant is how that helps the French case. Appeals to authority with authorities none of us would actually respect? We dont even know enough about the case, its one thing to arrest the CEO for a platform, its another to arrest an individual for involvement in something salacious and we dont know at all yet.
Not the absolute best prices, but in general local computer shops should get it directly from distributors that have reasonably good supply chain direct to manufacturer.

Yep - This really is just a random number problem.. it is only interesting in the sense that Pi is something that has been captivating in public math perception. Any random number would have the same characteristics..

It is however something fun to do in a homelab outside of the normal learning and playing around, and that has merit for me. Hobbies are hobbies in part because of the interest, joy and appreciation they drive.
The free love vegan hippies of the 70's became the literal CEOs of the most soul crushing companies on the planet in time, the whole while telling themselves how they have done it better than their parents/forebears would have.
Only wrinkle is that Mono was originally a .NET runtime for Linux. So they weren't embracing an external standard but a knock-off of their own. But I still agree with elements of your statement in principle. However, giving Mono back to open source is an interesting development and I don't know how it fits in your narrative.
Yes, we did, but it wasn’t good enough (it was the machine learning system I talked about). We later added EAC as well, the situation improved but cheating was still rampant.

From my anecdotal experience, I think I'll take my chances with COVID, thanks.

Never got a cardiovascular condition from COVID, yet did (and it continues to worsen) from the vaccines.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

At a certain point, "oh but statistically more people are worse off from COVID!" doesn't matter much to us as individuals, I think it's okay to act on behalf of my own self-preservation sometimes.
Maybe they assume "they wouldn't have built flat roofs if it weren't practical".

It's not that simple with inspectors before you pull a permit. They will let you do some things some ways some times. It's not predictable what will be allowed. The more change that is planned, the more total things will be rejected. It's usually an adversarial relationship, which makes what is possible even less predictable.
My list would be similar to this. Also Perplexity. Black Forest Labs. Maybe Stability AI.

I don't even have any work experience in ML as an SWE but would like to work in such companies. I study it and play with it a little bit on my own.
That's looking at the situation too simplistically.

Stuff is produced when there is demand for it. When people have less money to spend, there is less demand.

If this tax puts more money in the hands of the bottom 90%—and especially the bottom 50%—it will increase their buying power, which will increase demand, which means that, in all likelihood, more goods will be created for them to buy.

...I think it's also worth noting that for the vast, vast majority of people, what's standing in the way of them buying stuff is not the lack of stuff available to buy: it's lack of funds to buy it with. So on that front, too, your analysis doesn't really hold true.
