I just bought a new Mustang, and from what I can tell it's total junk.

Many others on forums report the same, and here's an example of a component being borked.

AEB, Automatic Emergency Braking, is on by default and always turns back on at vehicle start.

It's dangerous. An example? Even with a camera and a separate radar, it is borked. I've been behind another car, slowing for a light, and hit a downward slope of a large speedbump and SLAM the brakes come on.

Why?

The radar suddenly sees pavement, as the nose of the car is pointed down, but the camera sees car + brake light ahead.

This is at 30km/hr, and everyone is braking fine, the car ahead is not even close. And proof it's not me is the 5 times it happened in 2 weeks, it was always something like this.

I was almost hit 3 times.

It literally panic brakes. Horribly designed.

I finally had it and removed the radar sensor with forscan.

With behaviour like this in something as simple as AEB, by no means would I trust anytiong else. Forums show people complaining about:

* adaptive cruise slowing down, or speeding up because it sees speed limit signs on offramps, or even adjacent roads

* the lane assist pulling strongly because the car thinks an offramp is the main road.

* reports of swerving into other lanes when passing some vehicles, the car confused

It's just junk.

This beta testing on our roads needs to stop.

What cracks me up is this.

If you asked a skilled software dev, if they'd prefer to have software designed by a team, any team, responsible for tgeir life? They'd likely say no.

Because we've all seen the crappy code that gets produced. We know of bugs. We know of failures in testing, automated or not.

These cars ae all extremely buggy, just as any software project is. But beyond that, auto manufacturers are notorious for cutting corners.

I just can't imagine why anyone, this decade, would want to trust auto drive anything.
I'm curious on how you'd configure this. Is it common (and safe) to let a cdn cache private data for authenticated users?

Say Jira used electric, would you be able to put all tickets for a project behind a cdn cache key? You'd need a cdn that is able to run auth logic such as verifying a jwt to ensure you don't leak data to unauthorized users, right?

I built ClickConnector - a customer support platform for SaaS products.

Customer support and customer success are interconnected functions, especially for SaaS products. We took it upon ourselves to build a platform with HelpDesk, Knowledge Base Portals, Feature Requests, Bug Reports, Changelogs, Email Drip Campaigns, Product Tours, NPS, Testimonial Collection, Checklists, and everything a SaaS team needs to win over their customers.

Initially, my focus was on travel agencies. I then started building tools that I needed to support my customers (since I couldn't use another product to assist them—it would have been a shame to use an external product if we were marketing our solution as a customer support platform for travel agencies). Fast forward, with all the tools that we built, it was a no-brainer for me to pivot our product. I thought this would be a great fit since this niche has a better founder fit for me.

This student obviously should never have done this, what a waste of his talent.

I could be wrong, but I think the psychological aspect driving his actions was that he found himself working under people or with peers who were far less talented than him in understanding and skills.

People like him hone in on the fact that there isn’t a true meritocracy in our world, but instead there are network effects and luck, and often times you’re stuck working with, or under, people who are simply inferior than you in skill or talent, but have a higher social or work status. Or they got to where they are based on good luck, and you’re stuck there because of your bad luck.

The appropriate response is to just keep your head down, keep building your stuff, and then come into your own. Or start your own venture, open source or otherwise. Academic maliciousness or sabotage is definitely the wrong response, and no one should empathize with that.

Someone talented like him deserved a mentor who both humbled and guided him. I think academia has a responsibility to produce good mentors, and I don’t think it’s doing that.

Well, the decode used to use 15% of an x86 core's power budget but it hasn't grown as fast as the other structures so I'd guess more like 10% these days. So you're losing out on being able to turn off a small but noticeable part of your active power usage. But on the other hand fewer instructions executing means less active power draw in the rest of your core too. So it's not clear which way it goes in terms of Watts, but certainly you use more Jules.

When was this peak, which cities and how many cars? Waymo has a few hundred cars, and is serving the public in Phoenix, LA and San Francisco, as far as I can tell Cruise had a kinda shaky San Francisco service, with restricted hours, now discontinued, and they have a tourist zone Dubai service and... some test areas.

So I must be missing a lot of cars and a lot of extra cities with service. Or you've confused ambitions (Cruise wanted to have thousands of vehicles and wanted to be in dozens of US cities by 2027) with reality (Neither of those things happened)

One of my clients is using OpenSearch instead of Elastic.

Big mistake. It's already behind elastic search, and worse too. It has bugs, weird behaviour and updates are already slowing.

On top of that, elastic have cunningly changed parts of their offerings to mean OpenSearch users can't use the elastic examples. For example they completely changed their .Net Core library so all new documentation in elastic is totally useless for OpenSearch.

They've added a way in the dashboard to run SQL for quick queries, etc. The OpenSearch version of that is buggy as hell, and for all intents and purposes useless because if you get the SQL wrong it just shows a blank screen instead of the error.

I'd be very aware of those problems, which appeared pretty rapidly, when going to these big corporation supported branches.

You are asking for trouble and are totally dependant on the company keeping that branch going who have little incentive to maintain or improve it now you're locked into their PaaS.

Have you missed the last ten years worth of radicalization in the AfD? They started out as what appeared to be a relatively normal fringe party under Lucke, and then over the years the far-right managed to shed ever more layers of the onion.

Particularly Höcke, a man who you can legally call a fascist, gives me the chills. And the party youth manages to be even more radical than him, enough to scare the adults into attempting to clean up shop before the youth organization gets banned.

It is weird. Dan would probably say it's because political or geopolitical topics "have a tendency" to too easily devolve into ridiculousness or nastiness and lead to low quality threads, and because that's not what HN is for, they're mostly avoided.

The flip side I find is sad. A community of bright people who are not (at least in this forum) making their voices heard and crucially debating ideas which are central to society - especially at this time of rapid change.

Even worse, because the kind of long forming and focus that you can get here is denied such topics here, basically the only place to discuss it is X.

But at the same time, it's okay. If there was a solution to this, I'm sure Dan and the community would have already discovered it. I know it seems like censorship (by the community as a whole, somehow ~~ and may it is), but it's probably just for the reasons Dan would say.

Still, I can't help but feel society is a little worse off for the lack of ability to really dig into these topics on this forum, and specifically to have them aired (and even foisted upon) the same people working in technical and engineering fields who are shaping society. It both makes these people more vulnerable to unconsidered ideas in the geo/political space, and makes the work product which shapes society less likely to be well-conceived from the basis of its geo/political and social implications.

And also it's a bit weird how easily such topics do slide into low quality here. I guess it's self-reinforcing in that if you don't practise it, you don't get better. My feeling is YC is distinctly uncomfortable with geo/politics overtly perhaps because of the uncomfortable background of the very overt consequences of startups, but also probably primarily because it would seem such topics would just "get in the way" of the business of doing business in startups.

But overall: Ugh...

As someone who has done physical therapy for different issues, this is spot on. Lower back issues were actually due to weak hamstrings, and ankle issues due to weak calves.

Doing daily mobility and strength exercises as part of my mourning routine improved my health as a whole. A couple months in, and all random aches, pains, and soreness that i'd feel upon waking up or during the day were simply gone. And it only takes me 30 minutes a day. It's a pretty awesome alternative to doom scrolling.
I think it's a joking dig, saying that dynamic (interpreted) languages are stupid while compiled languages are not. `im_stupid()` is not defined, so there should be a compilation error. If it first prints the output of `print` before giving an error about `im_stupid` not being defined, it's a dynamic language, and (according to the author) that's stupid.

At a dollar per user per month, even if every adult in the US joined, YC will probably shut down OP without a second thought if that was the only revenue possible.

Not just seriously impaired, but outright impossible sometimes. For example, It is illegal to pay in cash above a certain amount, where I'm from. That means having a bank account is not an option, it is practically a requirement. If you don't have a bank account you simply can't buy a house, or a car.

You can do this without fucking over past contributors. Just... Don't change the license. Then still do all that other stuff. They're not contradictory.

> Google’s Willow quantum chip significantly outpaces current supercomputers, solving tasks in minutes that would otherwise take billions of years.

This is the point that was disputed in the article, and you're instead taking it for granted.
I hope you enjoyed your toast, but what I have to say here might not be quite so palatable.

Let's start with the cooking example, as it epitomizes the difficulty in all of them.

What you call "the classic materialist move" - to just say "yeah but it's just flour, water, and yeast" - is a rather simplistic parody of the full physical description of the process, and it does not even begin on the explanation of the process that science can give. A materialist would have no problem with saying that bread is different from its ingredients, whether considered either separately or collectively, and she could go along with calling this an ontological difference. The thing, though, is this: just because flour, water, and yeast are physical things, and they have now been turned into something that is in a different ontological category - namely bread, or baked goods - it does not follow that this bread cannot be a physical substance, and this argument provides no justification for the premise that it is not.

At this point, you may be thinking that you had no intention of saying bread is nonphysical, but if so, then that only emphasizes the point, as, in the rest of your analogies, you are doing the equivalent of exactly that (for example, concepts of sound are not ontologically the same as sound waves and the latter are physical, and from this, it is supposed to follow that the former are not.) The general schema here is this invalid syllogism:

Major premise: X is physical.

Minor premise: Concepts of X are not in the same ontological category as X itself.

Conclusion: Concepts of X are not physical.

Once we remove the ineffective ontological argument from your posts, all we have is a number of claims that mental phenomena cannot be physical phenomena, presented without any reason given to think they are true, and in the parallel thread where I am debating geye1234 [1] I explained why, for a conclusion of this sort to be taken as a fact - i.e., a justified true belief - you need to give readers a reason to think your conclusion is justified, which in turn means giving them a reason to think its premises are.

By the way, what is potential matter, as opposed to the alternatives of raw and physical matter?
