Fair. What I meant is that the performance delta between JSON and any other interchange data format should be a non-issue in this context. I would be quite surprised to hear that any performance problems systemd has with D-Bus was with seri

But that's what the article is about. The utilities are being asked to make massive speculative investments in transmission infrastructure, but are dubious that the demand will actually be there when those projects finish in half a dec

I've done similar things in the past (json over udp-to-localhost, with a schema description used to generate the code for both parsing and generating on each end). It's a totally reasonable point in the design space, and I literal

The title feels pretty clickbaity. I might be missing something, but this feels like another distributed annotation system for the web, an idea that's been tried and retried for what feels like decades a this point. Why will this one w

I mean, yes, that is a theory one could reasonably believe in. In the absence of evidence, it's not obvious at all whether it is true or false. But this submission is about research showing that the legal market isn't just replaci

It's not just like 2048 though, since you only move one piece at a time. In 2048 you move all the pieces in the same direction at the same time.

Very nice work, congrats! The combo UI just doesn't work for me. I didn't understand what was happening until reading the blog post, the game just felt broken since it was inconsistent whether a piece maintained focus or not. And

So your LLM has an up to date cache of roughly all web pages in the world? Given that the answer is inevitably going to be "no", why do you think this generic complaint is in any way relevant to the article?

I guess I'd just then have asked the same question about Oracle. Why would you expect them to be compromising supply chains to kill people, except for their supposed limited planning horizon? It seems like an equally odd point to make

I'm curious about why you're bringing Google into this. Is there some reason you think they'd totally be running a loosely targeted mass assassination program, except that they just can't plan ahead far enough? That is s

No, it really was the obvious explanation already at the time of that message. You'd already been shown that this post was not present on the author's blog, nor linked to on their active Twitter account. Both of these things were

You appear to be very confused. That was my first and only message to this thread, so it seems extremely unlikely you had any kind of expectation on me posting anything here let alone what I'd say. Anyway, since you're not only co

This is some kind of a bit, right? You can't be seriously demanding that kind of effort from others, when your own contribution was to just link to a list from 1974 as if that list somehow speaks for itself. Because it doesn't. Yo

Your initial claim was that the submitted article was "propaganda" in reaction to the NYT article. I think that claim doesn't make any sense for a number of reasons: a) The article wasn't about Waymo, and they would not

by jsnell 2y ago
I disagree, the article is not about Waymo cars. 99% of the article is about some Amazon-owned robotaxi company. Waymo is mentioned in two sentences. One saying they didn't comment on the story, and the other the one you quoted. Waymo

The submitted article is about safety of the Waymo cars. The article you're linking to is about non-safety [0] remote assistance of a non-Waymo remote taxi company. I'm quite baffled why you think there's any connection here.

I think you're misunderstanding something. This case was about a tax deal Apple had with Ireland a decade ago, not about consumer rights or anti-competitive behavior.

No, there is no way the numbers would work out to the same number of roundtrips. The sizes are different by a factor of 2.5x, and the congestion window will only double in a single roundtrip. The only way the number of roundtrips would be t
