No need for the strawman. Literally just omit the word "other" and the point stands. Without data we don't know numbers for Tesla or other manufacturers. That's literally what data means - the quantitative and possibly q

Yes, that's important to keep in mind. If the overall system of auto driving plus human turns out to be safer than a human alone, that could still be a good thing. I'd also like to see data, come to think of it, for systems with t

You and parent make very good points. These would still be relevant if we had all the data. It'd be nice to have the data and this context for it.

I care about nine numbers, in the order of the groups given. Group A 1. How many deaths and serious injuries per standard distance does AP have? 2. How many deaths and serious injuries per standard distance do other self-drivi

It gives certain customers time to mitigate - and certain others time to exploit - the issue before the embargo is lifted. It maintains the customer/vendor relationship. It also allows Intel, even if current products are still impacted

No, I really don't. Everyone would be impacted by a semiconductor shortage, as we've already seen. Yet the software continues to work on existing processors and memory modules. The focus should be on where the shortage would be, n

That's a good reason to have the semiconductor industry. The software wouldn't stop working on existing processors during a disruption of several months or a few years. The focus should still be on the semiconductor industry rathe

The part I don't understand about the article is why software companies and builders of durable consumer goods care where the fabs for chips are located. Does it harm Windows or Visual Studio if the processor is from China? Can Tesla n

So a CEO hires a VP who hires a senior director who hires a director who hires a manager who changes specs and deadlines in the middle of projects all the time, and all the rank and file have that follow them as a black mark when they try t

I'm no foundry insider, but in other forms of manufacturing it's not entirely uncommon to sell slack time on your lines where you have tiny amounts of capacity unused by other contracts on an as-available basis. Yes, I'm sugg

AA took it upon themselves to identify the guy and made a false accusation against him. They also have deep pockets. They're likely both the easy and big-paying target. If I was suing everyone, I'd get the big payout first and the

A more reliable source would be a well-conducted survey. Or, honestly, having worked for one of the big shared hosting providers, by the numbers small sites outnumber big sites to a staggering degree. One could get a pretty representative s

Plaintext, as in text, won't get seriously mangled. Text with symbols, which I admit should fit in the general idea of a "plaintext file", will be interpreted potentially in ways not intended in a regular text edited document

If it leads to decades more time of fertile reproduction and productivity, it needn't do so. We'll still have some rapid diseases not related to age, and of course accidents. If some of our brightest minds have another 40 years at

In a sense, sure. Plaintext input is completely valid markdown though. You can take text from any plaintext editor and paste it into a markdown input and it will render as HTML or XHTML that very much resembles what you copied. Then, if you

They're willing to do this at low margin, zero margin, or potentially at a small loss. It's not just because they can absorb it. It's because mindshare is real. Having schoolchildren trained in your technology is a loss leade

I've been using the vacation reasoning for a long time. I've just about convinced myself to get an EV and to rent an ICE for vacations. It keeps the mileage off my odometer that way, too.

I'm on a 2015 MB Air with two browsers running, probably a dozen tabs between them, three tabs in iTerm2, Outlook, Word, and Teams running. Perl 5.18.0 gives me 3.5 MiB per second. Perl 5.28.3, 5.30.3, and 5.34.0 gives 4 MiB per second

This is all true enough. The benefit of k8s is that if you need all that complexity, or even most of it, then k8s gives it to you in a fairly standard way. Then everything you build on top of it has a well-documented platform you can hire p

A provable language that can translate directly to OCaml, F#, C, WebAssembly, or VALE sounds lovely if it's not too painful to use. I hope the C translations follow CERT / MISRA. It would be a shame to prove the program correct th

Not exactly, but I sort of chuckled to myself and wondered if a future extension would be F*** for sure. Now I'm wondering what sort of project I can start and name "Grawlix".

The usual rule applies. If a controversial question is in the headline, the answer is almost certainly no.

In my experience whether Google provides better results or not heavily depends on what sort of information you're seeking. Things I used to find easily on Google suffer both from a serious recency effect and are SEO-manipulated half to

Mojolicious is being brought to JavaScript, too. The intent is to have the same basic framework in both languages.

You can't use the new feature without editing code to use the new feature. If you're editing code, bumping the version number at the top is trivial.

Teams do have conventions. There's code review. There are linters and pretty printers. There's even a standard set of default linter rules in perlcritic, taken mostly from Damian Conway's Perl Best Practices. Perl has no prob
