Every time I see an article such as this it reminds me how much I deeply abhor SQL. It is an ugly language, closer in feel to COBOL than something that can at times approach elegance, like Ruby or Scala. With languages like those, you can l

It is insane to me that doing this is not a part of GAAP, and is very much the exception rather then the rule.

There is something wrong. I’m running two separate Rails apps, MySQL, Oracle, RabbitMQ as a broker between the two apps, Redis, and both have Angular FEs that I use VSC with. Same year MBP, and my CPU load rarely reaches 5%.

I had a similar experience to yours. Divorce. Heartache. Depression amplified by..a lot. Tried to get out. Joined a couple of groups on Meetup. Didn't work. Moderately enjoyed it. Would get home, then... crash. Back into the spiral. Fa

Facebook seems to believe (understand?) that it is part of the new reality where due to their size and revenue the law only loosely applies to them, and mostly at their convenience.

You are focused upon strawmen and arguing in bad faith. It is a scientific fact that AP is safer than not having it. Statistically, you are less likely to get in an accident if you have it. Anecdotally, I have witnessed this with my own eye

So are you saying autopilot is, overall, a bad thing? Because it seems that the argument you are making is that the world is worse having it available, an argument I find to be perplexing.

You know, it’s almost like we’d benefit from having an autopilot system. I mean, think about it: people drive drunk, or tired, or get in fights with their mom on the phone, or have a crying baby demanding attention, or any number of other t

When it disengages itself it issues a series of loud tones and the display flashes red. A message also appears saying “TAKE OVER IMMEDIATELY”. In cases where the driver takes over, there is audial, visual, and tactile feedback letting you k

People already do the things you listed, though. Hell, when my kids were in car seats I frequently had to reach around behind me to soothe them via touch. AutoPilot would have been a godsend, because I wouldn’t have had to stress out so muc

That’s a lot of assumptions. The point stands that Tesla’s perform just fine in the absence of a network.

So that’s a lie. I drove through Arizona and Colorado on a hiking trip last year, and frequently camped in places with no service. Worked just fine.

I disagree with the position that even the discussion of the necessity for war, or any active engagements, in the pursuit of solutions to the existential threats posed by climate change are forever off limits. I understand their presence, b

Does that series cover eliminating Rupert Murdoch? I know that this is taboo to discuss, but it is becoming increasingly apparent that non-technical solutions to climate change will necessarily include the elimination of those who metaphori

SQL is a living, breathing technical debt. So what I'm envisioning in your environment is that you've just shifted your problems from a functional OO language to... SQL, which is neither. And when those queries evolve into the unm

I wouldn’t say it is ignored, more that it isn’t particularly useful. Shaky YouTube videos don’t allow for much in the way of study. Even more convincing sources, such as that video released last year of the Tic Tac UFO, were interesting, b

Maybe? You’re still seem to be thinking about this in anachronistic terms. Every political and economic philosophy is based upon the unspoken assumption that there will always be a climate hospitable to human life. This means that neolibera
