An algorithm is just a method saved in a computer. It is neither good nor bad, or rather it could be good or bad depending on how well it works.

You're just jealous. These guys have spun up their own RoHS and are doing a 100% EDA automation with full Verilog over there. By doing the reflow process (it's a way of building integrated circuits) they're able to offer complete impedance right here in the USA.
It's because they are using a third-party (cookielaw.org) cookie to record the your choice. So if your browser is configured to not allow third-party cookies - e.g. Safari's "prevent third party tracking" and similar options in other browsers, or PiHole and AdGuard - this breaks them.

A web page’s behavior should be independent of any particular styling of the hierarchical elements used to represent the document it’s presenting.

Just like any web page should work perfectly with JavaScript disabled, it should work perfectly with a user-supplied style sheet.

If you’re making a web page that has this problem, what you’re making should not be a web page, and you should feel bad about the choices that led you to that point in your life.

It will take a while to fix this problem in our industry since we’ve waited so long on it, but the best time to start is now.

When I hear about the concept of central planning, it tends to remind me of a mathematician named Leonid Kantorovich I had read about in a textbook. I am not too familiar with the economics concepts that he might have run into, but this article [1] is pretty interesting in regards to how centrally planned socialist economies also need to use the idea of interest rates and prices like capitalist ones.

Try having kids, shift work, or just be older than 40.

Your sleep naturally declines as you age, and though sleep time declines, the more detrimental factor is the lack of slow-wave delta activity. Your brain literally gets worse at the restorative function that is vital to sleep.
If you watch the video you'll see that Aqua does more than just STT and why we need the frontier models. I think if you want just STT of what you said verbatim, then yea any local version of Whisper is great. If you want the enhancements shown in the video, you need the frontier models. And doing that locally is slow.
The average Python developer does not even know what a "PEP" is. Open discussion is good yes, but no one really knows what the average developer wants because they simply does not care if its Python or Java or whatever else.

They're also saying that they provided a discount to customers up front and then didn't try to get reimbursed by the Canadian government for months, until they found out that the program would run out of money and they might not get reimbursed at all, at which point they rushed to submit the whole backlog in a few days. So either they were grossly incompetent and leaving millions of dollars on the table, or maybe they were trying to delay revenue to make earnings look better in a future quarter.

The customer and taxpayers are generally the same people here.

So, knock on effects can dwarf direct effects. Tax foreign computer components at some insane rate and perhaps you get a domestic market but you could also see companies start moving their US data centers to Canada and Mexico. Which then has it’s own economic disadvantages.
Yes, and?

Are you against negotiating a better deal?
It's a bit weird Tesla would be so lax with handling the rebates if they knew later-filed rebates might not be fulfilled. But w/e, not like we here have any actual facts of the case.
> How is a web developer supposed to test the website when he and user might have different browser behaviour?

So that is always going to be the case with a change like this, simply because people use older versions, use different browsers, etc.

If this change breaks popular-site.com then it will continue work fine for 95% of people, and it breaks for "only" 5%, one of whom will (hopefully) report it. This allows the Firefox people to test the waters to make sure it's not going to horrible break things and break things for too many people.
It's more like 2017 era technology done at a very small scale with massive markup (I think they mention it costs them like $650 to produce). They don't have the scale needed to access the latest chips.

Not to say that the journalists and editors involved with putting out clickbait like this don't deserve to be harangued (they do), but:

> An algorithm is just a method saved in a computer

No it isn't "just" that. It's quite a bit more specific than that.

For a sequence of steps to be an algorithm, it has to:

1. provably terminate, with—

2. the correct answer

(Every time, that is.)

Recommender systems and other programs created to help with things that have no correct answer belong to a class of procedures that are the exact opposite of what the word "algorithm" is supposed to communicate.

Anyone who has gotten paid to write something that involved the word "algorithm" in the last 10 years should give serious consideration to jumping off a bridge.
What mostly matters in science is the consensus, and the consensus currently is that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption.
>It's a bit weird Tesla would be so lax with handling the rebates if they knew later-filed rebates might not be fulfilled.

But that's consistent with their behavior? They were lax when it didn't matter, but when they learned the rebate was ending they got their shit together and filed all the backlogged claims. This is basically college assignment procrastination behavior, nothing "weird" about it.
Misleading headline. Tesla says the Canadian government misunderstood its own program and the incentive claims were entirely legal.

I think Tesla is likely correct and this is manufactured outrage. It has been several weeks and it should be trivial to verify if the rebates correspond to sold cars or not.

The whole issue is a deflection. Tesla didn't "stiff" other auto dealers, the Canadian government did. The government abruptly shut down the public subsidy program with insufficient funds to cover cars sold.

Of course there was a race to get the claims in. A dealer backlog isn't shady or unusual, as evidenced by the fact 200 other Canadian dealers have backlogs they aren't able to claim.
> Just like any web page should work perfectly with JavaScript disabled

And the problem is neither of those things are true in reality. So in real life a change like this can cost the economy millions of dollars.

It’s fraud when they lie to investors, or allow them to assume the wrong thing.

Doesn’t matter what consumers believe, it’s more or less legal to lie to consumers about how a product works, as long as investors know how the sausage is made. (Though, in reality it’s near impossible to lie to customers without also misleading investors, especially for publicly listed companies)

In this case, investors were under the impression that the AI worked, completing 99% of transactions without any human intervention. In reality, it was essentially 0%
Allies saw Trump the first time around.

The simple fact Trump was voted in again denotes that the people of the US is not to be trusted.

At this point, it doesn't matter if Trump disappears into a void at the end of his term.

22% of people in the US voted directly for Trump. That's 22% of people that think his mode of operating is great presidential material.

I cannot trust doing business in a society with such a large proportion of either idiocy or malice, which includes wealthy and influential individuals!

The last 15 years has changed the fundamental stereotype of a US citizen. And while I personally know a few US citizens who are trustworthy, competent, lovely people, this marks an inherent bias in decision making.

From here, whatever Trump does is simply reinforcing the stereotype.
When you claim "without human intervention... except for edge cases" and the truth is it's all "edge cases" ie 0% AI.

It's not provably correct if the comment is made toward 2025 models.
Is it weird or unusual? At least 200 other Canadian auto dealers also had backlogs, were even slower in fulfilling them, and are now angry the government wont pay them?

It was the government that abruptly canceled the the program without funding to cover sales.

Someone at Tesla realized the government was going to stiff dealers for millions and rushed to get them in while the other dealers were sitting on them.

The government announced on Friday that that the program would be "paused" in a few weeks, and Tesla worked 24/7 through that weekend to get theirs in before funds ran dry, along with many other proactive dealers. [1]

>Due to the high uptake, the iZEV Program will be paused in a few weeks,” stated the email sent to dealerships just before noon on the Friday, obtained by the Star. But that weekend there was an unprecedented surge in claims from four Tesla outlets, the Star revealed this week. The four Tesla showrooms claimed 8,653 EV sales in 72 hours and filed for $43.1 million in rebates — more than half of the $71.8 million in remaining funds. By Monday, all the money was gone and Transport Canada announced the EV rebate program was “paused.” It shut down the online claims portal for dealers, leaving hundreds without recourse to recoup their money.

Interestingly this was a task that could probably be done well enough by AI now.

Not that these guys knew how close to reality they turned out to be. I assume they just had no idea of the problem they were attempting and assumed that it was at the geotaging a photo end of the scale when it was at the 'is it a bird' end.

Maybe I'm being overly optimistic in assuming people who do this are honestly attempting to solve the problem and fudging it to buy time. In general they seem more deluded about their abilities than planning a con from start to finish.
In an earlier life I was an airport fireman. It was in the late 80's so I'm pretty sure things have changed, but physics stays the same.

Firstly the engines on these beasts are massive. My truck had 4500 gallons of water and 500 gallons of foam. It could go 60mph in a (very) straight line (that's what taxi ways are for) but acceleration and breaking were ponderous.

We had another vehicle carrying 500 gallons, with a huge twin-turbo motor, which had insane acceleration and could do 100mph. It's job was to get there first, dump suppressant quickly and get out the way in the 20 seconds before I got there.

Couple things I remember- these things go fast, but corner badly, so one slows down a lot before turning.

Water is really dangerous to transport because it sloshes around moving the center of gravity. Best to drive with water tanks full or empty. If they're only partially full you drive really slowly around corners. Like walking speed. Not surprisingly they were almost always 100% full.

Mine had pretty much 0% suspension. I took a shortcut once and hit a dirt ripple made by a recent grader. Maybe 8 inches high. The jolt was so bad the plastic light covers popped off the flashing lights. The guy in the roof well almost got thrown overboard.

Honestly, I was 18 years old and it was tremendously good fun. But I will say that the car accidents we attended turned me into a cautious driver. And I font need to "go fast" in a car - thats pretty tame compared to going fast in a 36 ton truck.
The entire outrage stems from the fact that other Canadian automakers were even more incompetent and slower with their backlogs.

Seems like this was standard practice and Tesla was the quickest to get them in.

> I learned a ton from my DE. Like, really, a ton. Before that, I had been writing on various blogs for about a decade, but writing online is all about being direct because most people don’t have time. With a book, it’s different. People made a deliberate decision to buy your book. Now, it’s your job to bring them somewhere valuable. And if that takes time (meaning more words), so be it.

I have a hard time with this point. It feels to me like a lot of books have A LOT of unecassery padding all over the place.

The example of taking 28 words and turning it to 120 is pretty good at showing this. The first paragraph is totally pointless - we are reading a book about 100 most common mistakes, obviously this mistake is very common, how did this increased the value?

Then we have another line that explaining what happens in the code, which is totally useless because the code is super trivial.

Then the code, with more explanations on the side as if the previous line was not clear.

And only after that we get to the crux of the issue.

I understand that book publishers feel they need to justify the price of a book by reaching the 300p mark in some or other way, but in my way this only makes the book worse.
> and adding that example `f(template: Template)` everywhere to my code bases is just a lot of repeated code for no real value.

I'd agree that it should be somewhere within the library, even if it's just a separate top-level function in the described `string.templatelib`. If it isn't, I'm sure someone will make a PyPI package for it right away.
Perhaps the users should be given an option to opt out (enabled by default) for such APIs on a per-site basis. That way, users can intervene when they're abused, while their fair use will remain transparent.
