Remember when they banned popup headlights because they were unsafe? Government agencies used to be able to do their jobs, but ever since the Reagan era, that has diminished. And as a result, since 2010 pedestrian deaths (and deaths for veh

Congrats, and it seems to work well. It gives similar ratings to the ratings my grocery store has on the product. What's the rationale behind the ratings it gives to different categories? Some are obvious, like "Sugar is bad"

This is a silly take. There are two options, Starliner with X units of risk, Dragon with Y units of risk. Given what we know, X is greater than Y. The only reason to choose Starliner at this point is because in the event of it not killing

imo this is a big part of why Elon is cozying up to Trump and the right. If the left wins, there will probably be tax incentives for EV manufacturers at large because that's just part of their platform. And if the right wins, then he h

This could be outdated info, but don't they have quite a bit of hardware bolted to the car that Tesla doesn't have? Tesla seems to be betting that they can work some software magic with fairly basic hardware, whereas Waymo (I thin

Yea, everyone is dunking on OP here. But they essentially said that crowdstrike's customers were all vulnerable to something like this. And we saw a similar thing play out only a few years ago with SolarWinds. It's not surprising

I think a lot about software that is fundamentally flawed but gets propelled up in value due to great sales and marketing. It makes me question the industry. It's interesting that this is being referred to as a black swan event in the

I'm actually laughing quite hard at this. This may be the most HN take I think I've ever seen. "20 year career in neurology, but there's this one weird trick that will fix everything"

I'm wondering the same thing. It seems like it'll primarily be used as a bandaid for poorly written applications to run slightly less slowly. Lovely, now some garbage page can hog more of my CPU, this is exactly what I wanted.

It's not hard if you remove the self delusion. Removing the self delusion is maybe tricky for the individual, but it's easy for people around the individual to see. Societal tools like shame are generally used to encourage people

All technologies live on some scale of exploitability. Mobile phones, for example, are somewhere on that spectrum, and google and apple try their best to secure them. But there are still state actors that have really sophisticated attacks t

The street race invitations are funny. I get that a lot in my Esprit and, apart from it being incredibly stupid and dangerous, new cars are so absurdly fast in a straight line that everyone knows who would win. It was uncomfortable at first
