Imagine how this could've gone if Uber had used its tracking and vast knowledge of roadways to know to follow up with riders on a cancelled ride on the highway or even deny drivers the right to cancel the trip on the highway because that is unsafe. Could've prevented all this, have they learned from this case to prevent future incidents?

There are no performance claims, you misread.

You learn very early that Tokio doesn't order, ordering is one of the enemies of high performance. Roll your own solution or use a third party solution, pay the tax, but you get what you expect.

futures_orchestra (https://crates.io/crates/futures_orchestra) handles the problem of limiting concurrency, queuing and ordering. I think I'm underselling it really, haha.

Should have been done sooner, I take issue with the 3 who dissented and how long it took there get there. The constitution is clear on this matter. Prices are insane already, we don't need fake emergencies to drive up prices even more.

I'm impressed with Claude Sonnet in general. It's been doing better than Gemini 3 at following instructions. Gemini 2.5 Pro March 2025 was the best model I ever used and I feel Claude is reaching that level even surpassing it.

I subscribed to Claude because of that. I hope 4.6 is even better.

Ok Google, I was deflated after you guys took away 03-25, but now I am happy again with 06-05. Hell yes, we are back baby!

Yes, it does worse but a far margin. Requires more instructions and way too eager to code without proper instructions unlike the 03-25 version. I want that version back.

I love Rust, but I would not try to make a full fledged game with it without patience. This post is not so much a moving away from Rust as much as Bevy is not enjoyable in its current form.

Bevy is in its early stages. I'm sure more Rust Game Engines will come up and make it easier. That said, Godot was great experience for me but doesn't run on mobile well for what I was making. I enjoy using Flutter Flame now (honestly different game engines for different genres or preference), but as Godot continues to get better, I personally would use Godot. Try Unity or Unreal as well if I just want to focus on making a game and less on engine quirks and bugs.

Interesting given I can access this[1] without an account.

The problem with words like "woke" is that there is no agreement on what it means. One sides it means this another says it means that. I think whatever it means to you shows truly what you believe. I don't use this word because it means nothing to me and I use more specific words to better communicate.

"Cancel Culture" has agreement on what it is, but one side says only the other side does it while doing it themselves. Give me a break. I just don't care enough about this.

Feminism, Privilege, gaslighting, toxic, DEI, etc. These words are perverted to mean whatever people want it to mean these days. Sometimes there is agreement other times there are not. DEI means inclusion spaces to one and exclusion/racism/sexism/ageism to another.

To address one part of the article about moral purity, again give me a break. We all have our compasses and will typically react with disgust to those who don't follow. Some people share some vague sense of moral compasses. You see it everywhere, not just politics. The spreading of outrage via the mainstream via internet and media outlets is really what has changed.

America, in its history, has had mobs that would be "woke" in today's culture apparently. Social media mobs are nothing fundamentally different.

Also, Twitter under Elon did censor people and ban words causing them to move to Mastodon and Threads before Bluesky, so let's not whitewash the suppression of "free speech" under him by saying that all he did was give more visibility to paying members when in fact it's what they settled on.

If PG actually wants better examples of moral purity and pushback against it, he can get in touch. Some of these examples are just not it.

Section 174 amended [1] as part of "Tax Cuts and Jobs Act 2017".

How do you donate to them?

Having to write a police report that can be used to self incriminate is also against the fifth amendment too with this logic then.

Ugh, It's apparent that this is owned by the banks as there is no way in hell they would just opt in credit cards and debit cards to some random startup. I just don't like this idea that they can just push your information without you being able to opt out easily. Should've been opt in rather than opt out any way.

I wonder if there's a technological solution such as student's phones joining the school network or use of geofencing to prevent certain phone apps from being able to be used while school is in session. If a parent needs to talk to anyone while in session it should be school administration to not disrupt class or the student unless necessary.

Looks like a fun blast from the past with some element of builds

Really basic security practices weren't followed. I cancelled my plan now and switching to my new primary health insurance dental plan which I should've looked at. I don't know why these companies wait for a breach before looking at their systems after all these data breaches. I mean storing credit cards is Do Not Do 101.

I'd be interested in seeing how we can incorporate AI into interviews. Example being entry level software engineers using AI to jam through a small project with tests in a limited time span. Lazy engineers won't check the work while others will use whatever AI generates as their draft and correct whatever bugs that are in it.

I believe that we should be taking advantage of this productivity boost across the board.

If only Elon believed in what he says: "Vox Populi, Vox Dei" and dared them to a vote given his past comments [1].

Don't know how you can say that with a straight face. You got me laughing right now. [1] shows clear influence by Japanese culture. With Japanese language symbols in each creation, again, I can't see how your claim stands that there is no influence. I could never say that creations are not influenced in any way by the world we live in. Race/Nationality/Ethnicity tend to be used in an intertwined manner these days so I have to believe you are not being of good faith here. It's 2023, so you can read it as Pokemon and DBZ are of Japanese origin and leave out the fluff. If we really used the race term literally, it wouldn't be used at all to describe differences between people in the human race.

I've changed nothing. You misread it and I clarified it for you to come to an understanding. Race/Skin Color/Nationality, whatever it is you want to read it as with the negative connotations assigned, isn't something any young-in thinks about on a daily basis without it being pointed out in some way.

Anyway, I'm not interested in going on circles on this. I would know about said experience given my own culture and interactions. No one needs to reads minds to give anecdotes about their life experience and talk to other people in the same situation about their life experience and thoughts about things that happen(ed) to this day.

Let's be honest here, a creator can make Apples be purple and slightly deformed and call it Banora Apples, but it's still an apple. Plenty of people who like DBZ or FF to debate with on how to classify said characters based on traits such as skeletal structure, influences from the creator, etc. These classifications, I don't think about much when playing games in general, not that much of a fanboy in trying to identify with any character. Gonna have to find someone else here to debate with on any particular character's race or racial influences.

You clearly misread. Elementary and even some high school school kids don't think about "race" until it is pointed out in some way whether by a national event or cited as bullying reason etc. How you could extrapolate that to "race doesn't matter", I have no clue other than a misread whether intentional or not.

IRC was pretty toxic for sure. If you didn't know the other person, you assumed they were white since it is the predominate skin color and American for that matter. Typically wouldn't question it unless they used different wording patterns or languages. IRC was attractive in some ways and offputting in others. I never really got into it outside of my #gamedev interests.

DEI initiatives as a backlash against the forced exclusion of people from the broader economy makes sense to me. It's crazy the amount of the legal and government system that was employed in the past because of what people thought to be true about other people.

I'm unclear of how much impact the intiatives have on hiring or retention. I feel this is one of the reasons why DEI initiatives highlight token people probably to show they are doing something (results) and the budget for it is justified. Would be nice to see the statistics from mid to large companies on how these initiatives have fared on multiple groups and worker productivity for that matter, but until then it feels like it has no to mixed impact at a company which seems to be the ideas of people not included in these initiatives.

DEI just feels vague and threatening to some people. I've seen Reddit threads of people saying they don't support DEI initiatives because how can they "secure a future for their child" which to me is highly obtuse. Who knows what a child will do in the future.

I'm all for hiring diverse candidates and helping those who have high curiosity and propensity to just do the work rather than the idea that one must be experienced in order to execute. It's the same way I am towards younger people, though you don't see the same backlash against initiatives in that arena unless older people are losing their jobs for the sake of it. In the end, I want people who will (not can) help with the work and will teach others.

Dragon Ball Z was introduced into lower income neighborhoods via Cartoon Network among many other anime, so it was hard to miss. It was pretty hard to miss Pokemon, Dragon Ball Z and etc. in elementary school especially with the merch kids brought to school. Marketing, re-runs and perceived coolness/epicness, I'd say drove the continued popularity of it. Once you hit high school and college though, Dragon Ball Z/Pokemon are niche and less visible (it stopped being cool and a relic of age) at least that was my experience in low income neighborhood. DBZ is still awesome because of its familarity, but not something I will watch intentionally.

Goku being Japanese and loved by people of lower income is like how Final Fantasy 7 is beloved in predominately white (western) countries. There's still discussions of people thinking Cloud Strife is white even though he is Japanese.

Race, in general, isn't a big deal when you are younger since it is not taught in schools (shockingly to some people :O). It becomes an issue when people actively start generalizing and using tropes for the purposes to make you feel like shit (in)directly.

ChatGPT is amazing. It can do things that Web/Location/etc. search cannot do. I love that it can do Q/A, summarize and assist in tasks that have to do with writing. BUT, web search will always be needed and ChatGPT will co-exist with Search.

If ChatGPT ever makes inroads into real time information then queries like "restaurants in my area" and "latest news" and other similar queries then Google Search will be destroyed. At that point, I don't know what else Google Search will be useful for other than to search for web sites which is useful for me. ChatGPT is a long time away from that though.

There new policy in there specifically for that case, so it looks targeted.

> If your account is dedicated to sharing someone’s live location, your account will be automatically suspended.

So if I'm a conference and I share video of public/private individuals while at that conference that would violate the rules just because they are at the conference. How would I know anyone's getting stalked? Sounds like a great policy alright O_o.
