I mean, we still have 14 years to go. It's not like it's 1999 and everyone is freaking out about y2k. We still have plenty of time.

That doesn't mean it's fine to wait and leave it until the last minute, but we have quite a few last minutes left at this point.
I don't use Google maps, so I'm honestly not really sure what their terms are

I guess in the big picture it just rubs me the wrong way a bit. I just find it mildly absurd that if I take a screenshot of OSMand on my phone and send it to a friend, that I've broken the law. It'd like to live in a world where that's not the case.

It's like if Project Gutenburg mandated everyone had to include a cover page with their name on every book they distribute. It doesn't make it unusable or horrible, but it's just a general feeling "ah, so close but they missed the mark".

It could have been a truly open repository of data and instead it's just so slightly not that (and in a way that's so minor that no one will ever bother to re-make a truly no-strings-attached version :) )
That was changed recently. https://www.irs.gov/publications/p15b

De Minimis Meals
You can exclude any occasional meal you provide to an employee if it has so little value (taking into account how frequently you provide meals to your employees) that accounting for it would be unreasonable or administratively impracticable. The exclusion applies, for example, to the following items.

Coffee, doughnuts, or soft drinks.
Occasional meals or meal money provided to enable an employee to work overtime. However, the exclusion doesn't apply to meal money figured on the basis of hours worked (for example, $2.00 per hour for each hour over 8 hours), or meals or meal money provided on a regular or routine basis.
Occasional parties or picnics for employees and their guests.

...

Section 13304 of P.L. 115-97 changed the rules for the deduction of food or beverage expenses that are excludable from employee income as a de minimis fringe benefit. For amounts incurred or paid after 2017, the 50% limit on deductions for food or beverage expenses also applies to food or beverage expenses excludable from employee income as a de minimis fringe benefit. However, food or beverage expenses related to employee recreation, such as holiday parties or annual picnics, aren't subject to the 50% limit on deductions when made primarily for the benefit of your employees other than employees who are officers, shareholders or other owners who own a 10% or greater interest in your business, or other highly compensated employees. For more information, see Regulations section 1.274-12. While your business deduction may be limited, the fringe benefit exclusion rules still apply and the de minimis fringe benefits may be excluded from your employee's wages, as discussed earlier.

Still an issue with under policing, but the deductible limits have changed and the "Occasional meals or meal money provided to enable an employee to work overtime" is specifically called out as an example of permitted de minimis examples.

Note the occasional and meal. This wasn't intended for every day or non-food items.
Why are you jumping the gun? Even if you keep the program this shows that there is a serious lack of oversight. Once people are dead they are gone and nobody to defend them.

I must admit that people here tend to be against the death penalty but when it comes to killing people in difficult situations suddenly we need to be super flexible and innocents be damned
There's a JSONB column type in postgres for a while now too with the arrow syntax.

I think my point is that the structure of the data in a relational database is tree-like. Yet we can only get tabular data out of the queries.
There are a bunch of companies working on that. So far off the top of my head I know of:

* Outrider: https://www.outrider.ai/

* Cyngn: https://www.cyngn.com/

* Fernride: https://www.fernride.com/

Any ideas what other ones are out there?

That seems like... a normal thing to know?

Pre-GitHub, one of the most popular web git viewers (cgit) used "tree" in this way. Never found that to be confusing.

(In git, the listing of the files and directories at a particular commit is called a "tree". So it's correct. Just not as intuitive as you, personally, would like.)
Don’t forget about the comments regarding sites that hijack the scrolling.
Why do you think that is? Is this narrative too complicated, or too different from the sort of myths that we naturally tend to create?

I wonder whether it'd be possible to make the story more inspirational by telling it in more accessible ways.
My Hyundai has a similar feature and it's excellent. I don't think you should be painting with such a broad brush.
That's how all autonomous testing programs currently work around the world. That is, every driverless vehicle system on roads today was developed this way. You're going to have to be more specific when you say that it doesn't work.

Y2K Event for AI Models Ahead
The 68000 was ~$15 in 1984, the year the 128 KB Macintosh came out at $2495.

In comparison, a 128KB Apple //e with a disk drive, monochrome monitor, and 80-column card (including 64KB of expansion memory) sold for $1995.
The current vision-only system is a clear technological dead-end that can't go much more than 10 miles between "disengagements". To be clear, "disengagements" would be crashes if a human wasn't ready to take over. And not needing a human driver is THE ENTIRE POINT!
I will admit Musk isn't a liar when Tesla has FSD at least as good as Waymo's system and Tesla accepts legal liability for any crashes.
I don't think this is true. The target audience of the ISO standard is the implementers of compilers and other tools around the language. Even the people involved in creating it make that clear by publishing other material like the core guidelines, conference talks, books, online articles, etc., which are targeted to the users of the language.
This is excellent. But I was hoping for a setTimeout that survived JavaScript environment restarts. Maybe setBigReliableTimeout is in your future? Hahaha! :)

Would think most quality data is books and news articles and scientific journals. Not crap people are texting each other.

These companies will never admit it but AI is built on the back of piracy archives, easiest way and cheapest way to getting massive amounts of quality data.
I suspect it’s also a bit of stockhold syndrome on behalf of admins haha
I don't think it's that far fetched that a developer implements a rate limiter with setTimeout, where a task can only be executed if a timeout is not already running. The behaviour in the article is definitely a footgun in this scenario.
I'm not sure how any of this is related to the article. Does this non-Tesla manufacturer claim that their steering assist is "full self driving"?

If you believe their steering assist kills more people than Tesla FSD then you're welcome, encouraged even, to file a report with the NHTSA here [1].

The parent comment was talking about wanting a system where "Any derived works, commercial or otherwise should also be in the public domain" so I was talking to that.

I assume when you say "government" you mean the US government. But in other countries it often doesn't work that way. You can't redistribute government maps with more restrictions. I went to a talk about this from an OSM developer here in Taiwan. OSM tries to lobby for the maps to be redistributed under different terms so they can ingest them
Seriously scaling nuclear would involve batteries. Nuclear has issues being cost effective at 80+% capacity factors. When you start talking sub 40% capacity factors the cost per kWh spirals.

The full cost of operating a multiple nuclear reactor for just 5 hours per day just costs more than a power plant at 80% capacity factor charging batteries.
I think there is some degree of exaggeration here. Intel (and everyone else) routinely fabricates test structures (usually for yield evaluation purposes) that are fused off on every die. The hardware to support x86-64 instructions was just another one of these.
Half of HN works in SaaS or similar but it seems I need to explain.

Price discrimination is a selling strategy that charges customers different prices for the same product or service based on what the seller believes it can get the customer to agree to. In pure price discrimination, the seller charges each customer the maximum price they will pay. In more common forms of price discrimination, the seller segments customers into groups based on certain attributes and charges each group a different price.

Airlines famously work on razor thin margins. If they dont make their $ this way they need to charge more for the NYC full fare, and because all competitors do it it pushes those fares up. Which might be OK but what this means is skippers make it worse for people who legit follow the terms and conditions

My belief is people should honour the terms of the fare they paid for.

As for a parachute. That is silly. Of course that would add a lot of cost. A similar example is asking a bus driver to stop outside your house. Or let you jump out the open door. Lots of insurance and liability reasons not to do so.

The fact that fuel is the only aspect to a fare is obviously misinformed. It is like saying AWS only pay for data centre electricity.
Politics is generally a restricted topic on HN but this is specifically about skewing the probability estimates for betting sites, which is a tech focus on USA regional politics.

So, a slightly different perspective.

I like working in a language that I enjoy, that is expressive (I can think in it), and on projects that I started.

If it is a bad language, if I am fumbling through it, and I'm plowing through some one else's bad code, life is a slog.

There is possibly some middle ground, where a new language or environment is fun and educational. Just so you're on an acceptable learning curve, not burning out.
No, let me instead tell you about my healthcare experience in America.

I wanted to get travel vaccinations in New Orleans. In my ignorance, I just looked up a clinic and went. Apparently I don't understand the coding for black clinic.

It was a shack with 30 poor rural black women sitting motionless on mismatched folding chairs. We sat and sweated for an hour; no practitioner or even receptionist appeared.

I don't think there was a phone at that shack. There weren't many cars about, so those women probably walked a decent distance to sit and wait.

One of them had an enormous tumour on her face.

It could be that we just killed the vibe. But these women were motionless. Like waiting was all they did. I believe they waited in that shack for days in a row.

We went to that clinic from a bar where we'd been drinking seven-dollar beers while a waspy college band played poor-hillbilly music to oyster-guzzling yuppies in raybans.

I've generally found Americans to be smart, humble, funny, kind and warm. But when I encounter an American being arrogant or self-centred, I think about that New Orleans shack.
As John Maynard Keynes said, "In the long run we're all dead"
I believe it is a single developer at Harman who is maintaining Adobe Air. I don’t think there is any work being done on Flash. It is more so things like keeping Adobe Air builds working for latest operating systems, fixing old bugs, etc, just for purposes of keeping legacy apps functional.
Fully agreed. I have accidentally drifted into that kind of SOFA-mode, having been a highly organized, checklist-manifesting person beforehand. Currently, my personal pursuits are a considerable mess, and guess what - absolutely nothing about this feels "creative", really. It is what it is: just a mess.

Lately, I envy my better half who reads all books from start to finish, and also manages to be very consistent in teaching specific things to our children. This is Doing More With Less in practice -- in the long run, children obviously benefit more from that as compared to inconsistent creative bursts that I (currently) represent. Order is much harder to accomplish than mess; I think ultimately, good learning = keeping order, and being consistent about what not to do.

(I do remember Nassim Taleb advocating to read books "ADDHD-style", as in, swapping right away when you feel bored, though. And he is quite good with his probability stuff, so threre's that. Also, I quite like Perl and Larry Wall's views on the inherent messiness of human language -- I think he is spot-on with this. But... as a layperson, it's nonetheless way too easy to get lost inside this mindset. Managing complexity is an art, I guess. Or, as somebody once wrote on the Perlmonks forums, "freedom is hard".)
We’ve made dams long before we knew about electricity. At which point tacking hydropower to a dam that would exist either way has basically zero environmental impact.

Pure hydropower dams definitely do have significant environmental impact.

Am I jumping the gun? All I’m saying is that anecdotes are insufficient for making any changes and here you’re claiming that it’s sufficient evidence of a lack of oversight. Yet there are arguably quantifiably more problematic deaths in regular health care (angel of death, malpractice where the doctor shouldn’t be providing any kind of care, etc) but you’re not arguing that there’s clearly a lack of oversight there. My point is the scale of the problem isn’t indicated by anecdotes and thus you can’t presume that any action should be taken by their existence purely from the fact that at any meaningful scale any human activity will have issues because humans. And that’s ignoring that I pointed out the potential problems with the anecdotes presented.

It’s worrying that you’re equating the death penalty and suicide when they’re very different things. Assisted suicide involves action by the person to end their life while the death penalty is the government taking that action. Very very very different things.

Even more worryingly that you’re outright discounting people killed by the death penalty as not innocent. Ignoring the obvious racial problems with black people being more likely to be sentenced that way since I don’t want to argue about sentencing disparity, the innocence project lets us estimate a lower bound on the amount of innocent people that had been killed before the invention of DNA (and even today after it’s part of the normal course of things). That number by the way I believe (but could be wrong) is higher by volume and percentage than the number of problematic deaths in assisted suicide. Care to rethink your priors about death penalty vs assisted suicide?

I’ve always wondered —- if communism is so inherently flawed that it will by definition go away on its own, why bother punishing or fighting it? The US embargo on Cuba seems kind of silly if communism would evaporate on its own
It actually is one of the more perfect features of the project. I was considering doing something like that myself in the early days of the project. It was around that time someone in Python land created a graphql-like mad libs language for this kind of thing. But the idea of doing it for llama.cpp using BNF syntax didn't occur to me at the time, until someone else came along and wrote it for me. Once I saw that, it became clear and obvious that this is the way. It's a best of all possible worlds kind of design. You could build an empire on that tool alone. For many months the grammar feature was the #1 feature advantage that llama.cpp had over OpenAI, which had nothing comparable. That's actually kind of a rare thing in open source since we're normally not the ones advancing the technological frontier. Similar to GIMP's color to alpha feature, which is the one thing it can do that Photoshop can't. If commercial opportunities exist for grammar, they will probably lie in democratizing and evangelizing the technology rather than improving upon it.
Sort of? There's also a key difference between reproductions that create a physical object (often but not always done for fraudulent purposes), and "essentially anyone can display a reasonable image of the Mona Lisa at any time of day, wherever they are in the world." Digital reproduction of non-digital media is where this problem gets thorniest because the cost of reproduction is at its lowest, and access to reproduction is at its highest.
I literally stated the opposite of that.. it keeps re-emerging because it takes advantage of feelings. People want to fix the problems of the world, communism offers solutions that don't work but sound nice.
lol, like the government doesn't have 3 more Mersennes they keep secret so they can verify potential First Contact situations
> Until I see some data indicating otherwise, I'm going to look at my £200pcm national insurance and my £9.90 prescriptions and my free ambulances, and Americans' $500pcm insurance and their unlimited prescription costs and their four-figure bills even when insured, and I'm going to continue to believe that Americans are punching themselves in the face.

This is a odd position to take. You're going to firmly hold onto a view despite admitting it's not that informed?

Not to mention you're not even comparing the right costs. What the patient pays is not the total cost.
Market cares far more about money than lives. Until the lives lost cost more than their profit, they give less than zero fucks. Capitalism. Yay!
Had a look at their website. I didn't do a detailed comparison, but the prices seem rather steep. I don't understand why you would pay a premium to have CoreBoot.
That seems to be it.

You compare the old string with the new one. What should be deleted is marked for deletion. Say char 10 to 30. Then the insert part points at spots where new stuff should be inserted.

Commas are left as an exercise for the backend.
I see, I misunderstood you. You were saying that there is no issue inherent to the tenets of communism that would make it fail
It might actually increase world revenue, if it causes some countries to bite the bullet and accept a higher price.
Incentives are what matters. When a government has a healthcare system already in the red, there is a strong incentive to get rid of weak and ill people from a government standpoint under the pretext of helping terminally ill people to die. You can see that they have been expanding it to people who were not terminally ill. That says everything you need to know.

This is akin to "think of the children" excuse used to censor the web. But this time it actually kills people.

That is a hopelessly optimistic statement. Wait until the Israelis write the history, they will have your grandchildren worshipping at their feet for surviving the Hamas onslaught.
> You can look at the health outcomes to gauge the efficiency. Does the population in country X live longer? Are infant mortality rates higher? Preventable deaths?

Those aren't great metrics as they are highly confounded by other factors that have nothing to do with a healthcare system.
>> I don't understand how someone can be barred from an airline because they got a better deal on it.

> Because they cause a truly stupid amount of inefficiencies and hassle with their desire to save a buck at the cost of everyone else.

This is almost entirely self-inflicted. If the airlines stopped treating people who attempt to cancel a single leg of an itinerary like borderline criminals and instead actually gave an incentive (even a small one) to cancel in advance, this problem would mostly go away.

Seriously, I’ve replaced a leg in the middle of a trip with ground transportation due to a delay, and, if I try to call the airline and tell them I’ll be missing that leg, I (a) get yelled at, (b) am threatened with cancellation of the next leg, and (c) have a heck of a time getting the airline not to follow through with (b).

If I were flying a hidden city route under these terms, I would fully understand the desire to simply no-show.

If I were involved in making regulation, I wound seriously consider requiring airlines to allow passengers to cancel single legs, with one hour notice, without penalty. Let the airlines figure out how to make it work. Charge $200 to reroute bags if needed. And, damn it, require the airline to give a partial refund if the passenger is skipping a leg because it was late (or because the previous leg was late).
One of the most damaging things you can do to any place is build a road to it.
Even if at least it won't kill you or anyone around you for using it.
A 60-year-old diplomatic row aside, where is The logic in continuing at embargo on Cuba considering any of the other countries and governments the US allows business and travel with?
Skiplagging is a very old practice. What's new here is just the website.

Before 9/11 there was nothing the airlines could do to stop it because you didn't have to show ID to match your ticket. So they couldn't ban you even if they figured out you were skiplagging.

Now they can and they do. Which is why the airlines love that the government "forces" them to check your ID.
You’d be surprised! For example, when I take off from Palo Alto in the Bay Area and fly northeast over, say, Fremont, staying under 4000 feet, I am in what’s called Class E airspace where I am not required to transmit on the radio. I regularly see arrivals into Oakland in front of me at my altitude and below. It is technically considered controlled airspace, as IFR aircraft must operate on an ATC clearance, but my VFR ass can legally barrel right through without talking to anyone! Obviously that’s not the smartest or safest practice but it’s legal.
> Seriously scaling nuclear would involve batteries. Nuclear has issues being cost effective at 80+% capacity factors.

I assume you mean that sub 80% capacity nuclear has issues being cost effective (which I agree is true).

You could pair the baseload nuclear with renewables during peak times and reduce battery dependency for scaling and maintaining higher utilization.
Do you think ticket prices should be lower, or higher? What remedy do you prefer to achieve your goal?
Yes this is what I am referring. I’m not saying he is like the boy coder genius, he is good at becoming and staying king. And if you look at all the departures of some of today’s brilliant technology innovators, perhaps it tells you why. Don’t fly too close to the sun.
Maybe it will lead to regime change then. Cuba deserves better.
