"Depreciation" and "capital cost" reflect the fact the vehicle has a maximum life, even given maintenance.

Imagine if I buy a $200,000 Lamborghini which, with regular servicing, will survive 100,000 miles.

That means for every mile I drive, not only am I paying for fuel, and insurance, and tyres, and servicing - I'm also paying, on average, $2/mile in depreciation.

And sure, the "true" value chart might not be linear. Maybe there'll be a sharp drop when the car ceases to be brand new, or a bump in value when it becomes a classic. But so long as it's worth $200k at 0 miles and $0 at 100k miles, the average cost of a mile must be $2.
The article do explains the cause of why women in this specific situation are more likely observed than men:

forest rangers in the national park deliberately fly drones over local women to frighten them out of the forest, and stop them collecting natural resources despite it being their legal right to do so.

later on it says:

The women living near India’s Corbett Tiger Reserve use the forest daily in ways that are central to their lives: from gathering firewood and herbs to sharing life’s difficulties through traditional songs.

For unspecified reasons, women are responsible for collecting those natural resources. If I put down a guess, that the wood is used for cooking and cleaning (with the men doing the typical gender role activities that India apply towards men).

We could create a similar article saying that men are more affected by road cameras than women, since men are more likely than women to be driving (especially truck drivers).
I have something like the parent suggests and yes, the article's idea is better because you don't need to do anything manual nor remember to run your own command at all.
If yours was a "blameless culture", when you did "version control forensics", you didn't really care about who did it, but when it happened and around what other changes (to understand the broader context)? Right? (Though obviously, it helps to know who did something so you can ask them directly if they remember more details, or so you know what to expect when it comes to style and expertise :)

Anyway, if you simply[1] require commits to be signed with GPG, and enlist what GPG identities are acceptable, you are pretty much set (and you can instead rely on the signature instead of the author/committer metadata to identify the actual author).

TL; DR: It uses the HTTP link header [1] in a way that only works on some browsers:

Seems you kind of need people who are capable and willing to do both. Not too many Bruce Wayne’s and Tony Starks outside the comic books and movies who are able to both think and spend.

Musk’s value to science and technological progress is not his scientific intellect. Musk’s value is his ability to invest gobs of money in smart people and be patient for years for the returns on his investment to occur…and to be willing to fail.

I’m sure he is an asshole and I don’t care what political tribe he follows. I watch rockets fly into space pretty much weekly from my backyard. Feels like every third car is a Tesla on the road. His investment patience has had value to society.

My C++ knowledge is pretty weak in this regard but couldn't you link different compilation units together just like you link shared libraries? I mean it sounds like a nightmare from a layout-my-code perspective, but dumb analogy: foo/a/* is compiled as C++11 code and foo/b/ is compiled as C++20 code and foo/bin/ uses both? (Not fun to use.. but possible?)

Is that an ABI thing? I thought all versions up to and including C++23 were ABI compatible.

>our system is the best because we're the best, because of the system we have.

This isn't what's happening at all. The causes and reasons why infrastructure and Western cities are so bad have been studied for decades and are well known, just as we've been studying what makes Tokyo or Hong Kong work so well. People are constantly critiquing the underlying system of incentives and entangled interests, you can hundreds of popular threads on HN, Reddit, MSM, hell even with Elon Musk's DOGE.

The only time when I see the mythical self-convinced westerner evoked is precisely when critique of other cultures come in, often from cultures that feel a need to constantly defend themselves.
I'd say that in general it verifies it with the email, but it depends.

I just did a test with four commits with a signature matching both on user and email, only on email, only on user, and in none of them and:

From GitHub, it validates signatures with the email registered in the commit: If the signature matches the key registered for the GitHub user with that email address, it says "Verified" in a green box. If it doesn't , it says "Unverified" in a yellow box.

So GitHub "Verified" two commits: the one that matches all the fields and the one that only matches the email.

From git CLI, it depends on your configuration.

If you do a `git log --show-signature` at first it will complain with `error: gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile needs to be configured and exist for ssh signature verification`. You need to set up a file with your trusted ssh signatures.

Once you set that up, it will verify ALL correctly signed commits, even if they don't match the commit email address. Seems like the signature and the commit can have different emails, so to speak: "commited by fake@email.com and signed by real@email.com. The signature is valid by real@email.com".

Example I did, changing the email addresses:

git show --show-signature 11906e1
commit 11906e14155ae08b7e7e23f26aa9c04913ade5dd

This is not at all what they did here. Here, they use the IMU sensors in the phones, not the cameras. Using cameras is too restrictive if one wants to apply it to more real-life-like situations due to visual obstruction etc. They are not the first to use pose and movement estimation using IMU sensors by any means, but I guess it still is a valuable contribution to have a working-out-of-the-box app, and also they seem to get into estimating more details in the pose than just a general classification.
You can actually if you have energy trading between regions. The problem with California is that during peak-power use times (18:00->20:00) there is no where to buy more solar from. But California can sell its solar for other regions peak-power use time.

I think the problem is that the US grid is also not well set up for this to be viable though, but I don't know the specifics (I think the east coast is on a different grid from the west coast, and Texas has its own grid?)

Where do these odd claims come from? Of course people say that, a lot.
You might be caught off guard then because its already happening successfully. There is a lot of overblown hype but systems already exist that do a pretty good job on first passes and other work that paralegals/juniors would be doing. I know this goes against the anti-LLM narrative here but don't be surprised as it happens.
I personally like these discussions about C++. Yes, I think C++ should continue to be C++. I also like it that way.

On the other hand, having a bit more transparency into the workgroups and their way of doing things may allow the process become a bit more efficient, approachable, and maybe would allow shedding some of the problems which have accumulated due to being so isolated from the world.

Some of the alleged events really leave a bad taste in the mouth, and really casts a shade of doubt for the future of C++.

Lastly, alienating people by shredding their work and bullying them emotionally is not the best way to build a next generation of caretakers for one of the biggest languages in the world. It might not fall overnight, but it'll certainly rot from its core if not tended properly. Nothing is too big to fail.
Nice article.

That flapping from EpicUp 140.99.244.0/23 prefix should have been subject to route dampening. This is per peer or per prefix rate limiting typically enforced on all peers by ISPs to prevent this exact issue of a single prefix making up a significant portion of the global BGP churn.

I’m unconvinced of the correlation between the updates that the author attributed to knock on effects. It would be pretty janky to have your advertisements be based on the path to other autonomous systems’ prefixes, especially unstable ones.

I don’t think there is a 40 minute periodicity either (at least there wasn’t 8 years ago when I was deep in the BGP world). Smells like what this dataset happened to show either by luck or because of the network the author was getting the BGP feed from.

If you dig into the data and look at which AS’s and prefixes are experiencing changes, you’ll find it’s all over the place and there isn’t really any bigger pattern.

On any given day there are usually a few noisy ISPs because of bad circuits or misconfigurations. Then there are new prefixes flapping in and out as a new thing is brought online for the first time, etc. Then sprinkle in path changes for regular draining maintenance, etc.

It’s simultaneously both fascinating and a little horrifying how a little ISP in Kansas experiencing a fiber consuming backhoe shows up on routers in Perth. Yet the frequency of updates is kept to <10hz globally through tons of hand tuned policies.
And to spell it out:

- Stylesheet encoded as base64 in the Link header;

- Browsers always implicitly have at least the html and body tags;

- CSS cannot create new elements, but it does get 2 free pseudo-elements per actual element, ::before and ::after;

- CSS can set textual content for pseudo-elements;

So, it sets content to a pseudo element of an implicitly created tag, that's why the page is so minimal.

(Well, it could be up to 4 times as complicated I think, by using the other 3 pseudo-elements. Or cheat by using a big SVG as a background-image with more complex contents, but then you start running into header size limits and whatnot)

Once an AI is able to land aircrafts on any airports, highway or carrier, is able to decide on an emergency landing, or on an emergency discharge an won't crash because of a faulty sensor (MCAS) or weird UFOs that trigger those sensors, i won't be opposed to AI-driven aircrafts.

I'm really sympathetic to the impulse that led to this article, but I think it's missing something central: The structure of the economy.

The word "inequality" ("inequalities", actually) appears only twice, in one short paragraph, and it's to unfocus the emphasis, away from just wealth, to also include respect.

Then the article, which bemoans an overemphasis on IQ and on the individual, suggests a variety of alternative measures by which we can determine which individuals get a slice of the decaying pie. There's something self-contradictory about this.

We are witnessing a terrible arms race all throughout society, so that a smaller and smaller number of people can have a larger and larger share of desirable things. We're fighting over who gets to extract value. Meanwhile, so much else is left to be undesirable. To be truly a bit shit. The largest firms are getting larger and larger, and you have to get into them if you want to get anywhere. Inequality between firms is way up. A handful of East India Companies is conquering all.

This "Tiger Mom" phenomenon is just the prisoner's best-response to the situation.

The solution has to be a more broad-based cultural and material plenty. We have to have enough to go around, and we have to have nice things. People wouldn't be gouging each others' eyes out if they didn't think their peers were just competitors for scarce resources.
So many words used to convey so little meaning, what a waste of time. How do they think differently about celebrities, why, and is it a bad thing in and of itself?
> Academic publishing doesn’t make the authors money

We agree on the problems, maybe you have other wacky potential solutions other than just saying others wouldn't work!
It's also a food for thought that we almost certainly are in that timeline in other areas too. Take your chosen Hawk button issue like net neutrality, walled gardens, anti-competitive acquisitions, or some of the more outright antitrust agreements such as those that are displayed in the recent Google lawsuit (do business with us and be forced to sign an agreement to shut out all of our direct competition, ex: offer a non-Google Android fork and get banned from offering the Play Store on all of the company's devices).

Practices like abuse of the legal system have deleterious effects in our specific timeline, but I've always thought that for so many things, It's the opportunity cost that dominates. So many fruitful branches get snipped at the bud. Yes, as you said, we'll never know, but maybe it's something we should talk about more. What it could look like. It doesn't have to be done with an ideological approach. Looking at higher order effects can help see true costs and benefits.

Edit: I'm not fixing that Auto-correct. This post has a Hawk button. Press it, I dare you...
Just tested out the treasure idea and seems to work fine in ChatGPT. I suspect if given context at the task at hand that the LLM would provide a pretty decent first pass.
> in the economy, it leads to bad things

there are two parts to this

- The first part is the good part, where people say something like "increasing liquidity provides a useful service, we can move money around more efficiently, so it gets to the people doing actual things faster."

This works in my opinion if financial services play a small role in the economy.

However, much like a programming language, if you have a massive project with 75 layers of abstraction, its own custom scripting language with multiple versions supported and used in different areas of the same codebase, it really is a waste of everyone's time and only serves to retain the jobs of the developers that understand the mess

- This leads to the bad outcome, where financial processes become labyrinthine and hide risk, and massive effort must be spent on the services without achieving useful work at the end
They’re used on hybrids because they’re more longer-lasting than Li-ion for the duty cycle hybrids have.

Li-ion is not universally better, but its energy density makes it better for EVs, and economies of scale mean that they’re becoming as cheap or cheaper than NiMH cells even if the hybrid duty cycle will make them degrade faster.
I wouldn't consider other chromium browsers reskinned because they're using the chromium engine as a dependency, by choice. They can customize it as much or as little as they want (and I'd imagine they do to various extents).

Browsers on iOS can't - they are required (legally, not technologically) to use (a worse version of) Safari's engine. Chrome for iOS is not the browser that the chrome team wants to distribute, it's a browser Apple made that has been customized to the extent that Apple allows it to be customized. What is that if not reskinned?
> C++ has lifetime rules just like Rust. They're simply implicit in the code and not enforced by the compiler.

The problem is that the rules enforced by Rust is not restricted to lifetime rules, it's a much much larger superset that includes quite a lot of safe, legitimate and valid code.
There are certainly "milder ways" to put it, but the tone one uses is certainly on the author.

New products or features are of an acceptable performance only, sometimes not even that. Additional work on performance tuning is often followed up in a later version. It's really about priorities that have to be decided, and deadlines usually win.

Those that prioritize performance upfront can find all that work thrown out if the design needs to change for some reason.

But I think that performance by design upfront should be done where possible. This is where experience helps a ton.

Children and their circumstances are so different that it's kind of easy to find yourself in a situation where no one knows what to do. Like everything that matters experience is the only real teacher. Keep trying.

If you can talk to people from your parents' generation that had children. Everyone has a story or a skill to share that helps make it all make more sense.

If you can afford to hire professionals they are generally more helpful than books. Doctors obviously are good to consult. Post partum doulas have lots of random knowledge that they can diffuse to you while they help out around the house. If you are having feeding issues OTs and lactation consultants can be quite useful.

Tangentially there is room for optimizing for non-american keyboards.

The accent grave (backtick) you're using in a Markdown-inspired way is utterly annoying to type on keyboards where accents are implemented as dead keys, to be combined with vowels, common on european keyboard layouts. For your example I had to type `, but then look ahead to the a of add_numbers and remember to put in an extra space, so that the ` and the "a" don't combine to an "à".

Also I find it somewhat illogical: The usage of an accent as a character in itself in programming languages is one of my pet peeves. Just being an ASCII character is not reason good enough to keep using it.

Curly or square brackets, backslashes and other stuff also put you into uncomfortable AltGr or Cmd-Shift territory on some keyboards. American language designers are often blind for these simple ergonomics.
typical nextjs/react bloat, imagine you were using entry-level android like half the world population.
Spending is only useful if you spend it on useful stuff. Input vs. Output. If the output is just being destroyed (like munition), then all your inputs go basically to waste.

Nonetheless, if your only real problem is that people don't have enough money to spend, then putting people in factories where they earn money can help. However, there are better ways to do this (e.g. just give them money or even better let them produce stuff that is needed/wanted).

Nonetheless, if you can't defend yourself, even the best economy is worth nothing. Well, nothing to yourself. Maybe something to your new masters.
They use IMU sensors not cameras. The linked article is a bit bad in that it does not make it very clear and it has a quite misleading hero image (in the tradition of useless hero images). They try to estimate pose in detail through IMU signals. While pose estimation through IMU is not new, I am not sure if something like getting into that deep detail (out of a general classification) has really been done.
