The higher hood is required by newer European pedestrian impact safety regulations, intended to reduce head injuries.

So the reality is 180 degrees opposite to what your claim is.

What happened was that everywhere Google Fiber went, the big ISPs would suddenly offer competitive pricing and service (which of course they could have done all along), which meant it was hard to get customers.

Also, they would fight tooth and nail to prevent Google from being able to actually build the infrastructure. One way was to make it needlessly onerous, slow, and expensive to access utility poles.

This is all straight from the Standard Oil playbook.

Brake wear is lower because of regenerative braking. In my car I barely use the brakes at all

Regular users really wouldn't want glinux. It's really just debian with a lot of things added for Google's corporate fleet management.

Lots of people have Mac laptops but you can't use them for anything but remote into a gLinux desktop or virtual machine to do development. Or you can use a web-based development environment. Basically, at Google, a laptop is just a web browser.

Nobody knows what storage would cost because there is no technology that currently exists to make storage possible. Battery technology helps a lot to stabilize the grid over seconds to minutes or even hours, but the kind of storage that would be needed to be 100% solar and wind just doesn't exist. Pumped hydro is great but there are not many places where it is feasible.

So the reality of the current situation is that solar and wind are cheap now since when they are a relatively small percentage of the power and you can fall back on gas and coal storage isn't really needed. But in the future the costs of solar and wind will skyrocket since you'll need to overbuild the capacity by a huge amount, plus build lots of expensive transmission infrastructure, to work around the fact that storage technology at the appropriate scale doesn't exist yet.

Here's the current world record cube, 33x33x33 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqJC3YxfcyM&t=0s

As with all such cubes, it's borderline unusable but still an interesting challenge.

There are a lot of much better assets to buy as an inflation hedge.

Wealth is not zero sum, but Ponzi schemes are. They do not create wealth, but pretend to do so until the scheme collapses.

No, this is the code that you inject using your vulnerability. The vulnerability is the privilege escalation part and this is what you do with your privilege. Exploiters call this shellcode since a common way this manifests is that the code will launch a root shell.

Shellcode can be hard to write since it might be a small amount of code you can execute, you might not be able to jump precisely to your code, it might have to use a limited range of values (such as correctly parsing as something else) or other challenges.

I think you're missing the point. The question could be possibly rephrased as "what are the tricks that the AI uses to fool humans?" The paper goes on to identify some of the specific tricks that the AIs appear to use. A related question might be "why are we fooled by such simple tricks?"

Most of the debt is shorter term and must be continually rolled over. So when first moving from low expectations of inflation to high expectations, there is a temporary one-time gain, but after that the government will need to pay higher interest.

And of course when the expectations return to normal there is a period when the government must pay higher than needed rates.

You can conclude from this that the schools are not better because of funding differences. You can try to come up with other reasons why this might be so, but don't point to funding.

Hmm I don't get any results for any searches...

"No results found for test"

Tail calls will work the same as loop. So if you have data dependencies between loop iterations or between tail-call-eliminated stack frames, then it will be slower than if you do not have those dependencies.

Worth pointing out that Bell's Theorem and experiment have ruled out hidden variable explanations, leaving only instant "communication"

That would be interesting since that would be likely the shortest known MD5 collisions. The shortest ones known are 512 bits differing by 2 bits.

If I had to guess, you might have been hitting collisions in a truncated MD5 hash. It's not uncommon to do something like take only the first 64 bits of the hash. Doing this you are quite vulnerable to birthday problem issues.

You found 2 actual emails with the same md5? That sounds very unlikely. MD5 is weak against attack, but you're not going to be hitting collisions with "normal" data and especially not short strings.

An article that discusses attribution for the paper:

'As Johnson later recalled, "Finally, Ted told him, 'Katherine should finish the report, she's done most of the work anyway.' So Ted left Pearson with no choice; I finished the report and my name went on it, and that was the first time a woman in our division had her name on something."'

Apple allegedly broke some new definition of labor regulations that don't currently exist. The NRLB is trying to expand this to the point that there's literally no action you can do to respond to a union.

Anything but immediate embracing of a union is called "union busting" apparently. The union presents its case why can't Apple?

Windows does have multiple desktops. It was new in win10 I believe.

It's just because the interviewing tool you have to put your notes into at Google takes text and not pictures :-). The hiring committee will actually look at this, and this is a different person from the interviewer.

This is a fast-growing space with enormous potential.

Help us architect the frontend and backend for our platform. Help drive the architecture and user experience.

Founded by infrastructure veterans from Google, Arista among others, and well-funded (by a legendary investor and co-founder) with substantial runway to build something great. Highly competitive salary and equity offering.

Very curious where you see the advantage of using Webassembly there. Presumably this is not running in a browser.

I guess you just have to make multiple trips if you need to buy a significant amount of groceries? My grocery trips always involve more than I could carry by bike.

They seem to believe that by working to actively make roads and parking worse, then some sort of car-free utopia will emerge. Of course, the actual effect is that things are just worse.

I have visited European cities and doing anything requires huge time investments and careful planning.

What prevents an hourly employee from working 32 hours now? It seems like many hourly employees have the opposite problem: they want more hours but they can't get them scheduled.

This is roughly the idea behind Amazon snowball and similar products.
