Sure, but that is despite of / or not because it's very affordable. Not thanks to it. Or am I being too picky?

Thanks to its very affordable price, the camera is also an attractive option as a light meter.

Tell me you're writing AI slop without telling me you're writing AI slop.

Why is this news outlet with some low-quality post even on Hacker News?

The European Union is messing up ignoring the law of unintended consequences, as typical...

More wealth gives you more power in different ways, including political.

That doesn't mean that society stands where it stands now because of political power. If anything, we've evolved in spite of it.

And you assuming that I was born rich is hilarious. I come from the northeast from Brazil, and my parents weren't by any means rich growing up. Now, on their 70s, they're finally financially stable after a lot of hard-work, and despite the government doing their best to destroy their wealth. And to clarify: besides attending a really good private school, my childhood was quite poor (luckily, I always had a computer about 5-10 years older than the current models back then, at least; I could've newer, but your loved statism made it harder to have access to tech).

You're full of prejudice. You think someone who isn't on the same page as you politically is privileged lol

Wealth inequality doesn't cause people to die from preventable diseases. Your commie mindset does when they can't afford to have access to wealth, medications, leisure, access to good resources, etc.

Focusing on reducing economic inequality is silly. Some people being wealth doesn't mean other people must be poor.

Society has never been as rich as now, and people are getting out of misery faster and faster.

Drawing attention to the fact that some outliers have an insane amount of wealth has been shadowing the real problem: politics is in getting in the way of eradicating poverty.

Many people, mostly fueled by envy, misses that and instead focus on asking for taxing the wealthiest rather than noticing that poor people lives could be vastly improved by reducing taxation on them (rather than increasing the taxation of richer people, which is a silly take on the matter), removing economic barriers created by political forces, etc.

Feels like AI going wild with censorship regardless of what they say lol

I wonder if this is because Windows 11 has been used in critical systems to a certain extent?

Go, not Golang.

The first illustration has no legend or explanation of what the axes are (if you scroll it, you can find it), but if you scroll down, you're going to see it again. A bit annoying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I never heard of this and follow Tesla groups/communities/forums/etc. for over 10 years. At most you'll hear one or another person complaining about having initiated the update process and suddenly getting annoyed because they find out they need to go somewhere (it might take an hour).

3. Some cars, primarily luxury, will force slow you down to 15mph, honk horns, and go into limp mode.

Source? I can't find any reference. It looks like you're hallucinating.

This makes me seriously reconsider continuing with my Ring subscription. The chances this will be abused are 1000%.

* At the moment I only have sensors so that Ring tracks movement inside the house. Only when I'm out of the house for an extended amount of time (days), I turn on the cameras.

On Model 3/Y, when you pop up something else the next navigation direction starts showing on the top-left. I know it's not the same, but it's easy to miss it.

And by far, it's not the worse offender. Some cars completely hide any instructions (looking at you, BYD)!

Same!

Ending the war on drugs would be a wise choice. Treat drug addicts as people with a health issue instead of making the entire society pay for it due to the fact that the druggies pay the cartels to smuggle drugs to them and all the consequences of the drug wars...

Tariffs are just taxes that will destroy the economy.

As a critic of such licenses (https://medium.com/@henvic/opensource-and-go-what-license-f6...), I love it!

Quite interesting! I've written a library that does something similar ("tap") for a Go application: https://github.com/henvic/httpretty https://asciinema.org/a/297429

I also thought about doing something like this for any program, but never really investigated how to do it. Nice to see someone out there created it :)

Because once things are paid by consumers things get better, more responsible, efficient, and so on, compared to free money granted by states to a few at the cost of many?

Well said. It's hilarious people don't know about regulatory capture and have so much faith in politicians.

Yeah. I know a beet farmer who struggled a lot with his farm to the point that he had to start selling paper at some point. Poor Dwight...

Taurus had similar issues in the past: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lZuoRrBa1M

This is insane.

Lovely! My first website was when I was 9 years old, and I used Netscape Composer to create it. My content was also centered in the screen :)

Just tell me an attack on the bus of an airplane which couldn't have just as easily been performed outside of the bus.

Timed attacks on multiple aircrafts. Don't underestimate people with evil intentions...

Exactly. If you don’t know, you might want to look up Economic Sophisms by Frédéric Bastiat.

In particular, The Candlemakers’ Petition https://fee.org/articles/the-candlemakers-petition/

They shouldn’t. Just find something else to do it’s what people should do, rather than complain.

I’m not trivializing it, and there is nothing wrong with price dumping.

Furthermore, it’s a myth that a specific industry is the entry point to industrialization, period. It might have been historical in most or even all places, but that doesn't mean that it's a required stepstone.

In my opinion this isn't really the problem. While one sector might be slightly affected, this is something many more benefit from. For the sake of argument, imagine that Santa was real and gave kids free toys, magically produced, during Christmas time, destroying this industry.

Sure thing, that'd be a pity and would generate some unemployment. However, overall we'd be better off: people would be freed from the costs of buying toys for kids and would have their resources available for other industries and endeavors...

Don't get me wrong: if this happened overnight, it'd be catastrophic for many people, but still, on the long run, we'd be better off.

A real problem, though, is that we're still wearing a lot of low quality clothing. We, as a society, would really benefit from a shift to buying higher-quality clothing that would stay good and last for longer.

I'm not talking about drone legislation here in Europe, but state overreach in tech in general + bad scene for startups compared to the US (for now...) due to politics.

DJI is, by far, the best drone equipment brand for photography, industrial usage, etc.

It's disheartening to witness the US embracing protectionism for high-tech. If the United States does this, it might as well join the European Union's decadence in killing tech startups by stifling the competitiveness of their market...

I can relate to this. In 2017 I was traveling around Europe and planned to go to Chernobyl because a friend of mine really wanted to visit there. We ended up our trip short in Moscow, unfortunately, because Kyiv was hosting the UEFA Champions League Final and it was impossible to find any hotel room for less than the equivalent of $1000 USD/night. We had already arranged tours and everything. We considered finding accommodation when we got there, but then two days before we reached there, we still haven't had anything and we decided to cut our trip short. I really regret it! I hope I can go to Kyiv soon.

Looks like this was the bus: https://i1.wp.com/www.techtraveleat.com/wp-content/uploads/2...
