It does sound like a good outcome for automation. Though I suppose an investigation into the matter would arguably have to look at whether a competent human driver would be driving at 17mph (27km/h) under those circumstances to begin with, rather than just comparing the relative reaction speeds, taking the hazardous situation for granted.
What I would like to see is a full-scale vehicle simulator where humans are tested against virtual scenarios that faithfully recreate autonomous driving accidents to see how "most people" would have acted in the minutes leading up to the event as well as the accident itself

Sure but also throw in whether that driver is staring at their phone, distracting by something else, etc. I have been a skeptic of all this stuff for a while but riding in a Waymo in heavy fog changed my mind when questioning how well I or another driver would've done at that time of day and with those conditions.
Indeed, 15 or 25 mph (24 or 40 km/h) are the speed limits in school zones (when in effect) in CA, for reference. But depending on the general movement and density and category of pedestrians around the road it could be practically reckless to drive that fast (or slow).
If my experience driving through a school zone on my way to work is anything to go off of, I rarely see people actually respecting it. 17 mph would be a major improvement over what I'm used to seeing.
I remember the pitch for Julia early on being matlab-like syntax, C-like performance. When I've heard Julia mentioned more recently, the main feature that gets highlighted is multiple-dispatch.
Even with text, parsing content in 2D seems to be a challenge for every LLM I have interacted with. Try getting a chatbot to make an ascii-art circle with a specific radius and you'll see what I mean.
I don't really consider ASCII art to be text. It requires a completely different type of reasoning. A blind person can be understand text if it's read out loud. A blind person really can't understand ASCII art if it's read out loud.
I think the selfishness here is related to being fine with generating a pile of electronic waste that becomes a problem for everyone else, as long as he can avoid carrying a few ounces extra.
It's hard to recycle electronics, because separating materials that are chemically bonded together is very labor intensive and isn't worth it from the price of aluminum, copper, lithium, etc alone.
It would have to cost more to dispose of a laptop for this to work out financially.
I wish there was an active dev community that could patch win10 going forward, but without access to source code for the kernel, perhaps that isn't really viable.
Ideally I would want to use Linux but I also want to play games that are only supported on windows.
Does using WSL help or is an outdated windows base still going to be the weakest link in the security onion?
WSL is unfortunately is less than ideal, not only is it rubbish (it has its own set of issues like weird networking bugs), it also doesn't mitigate any of the security vulnerabilities/bloatware/telemetry/bugs etc present in Windows.
But you can always dual-boot between Windows and Linux. Just uninstall all your browsers (to mitigate risk) and other non-essential app in your Windows install, configure the firewall to block everything except games. And boot into Linux for everything else.
> (it has its own set of issues like weird networking bugs)
WSL2 is mostly just a virtual machine. All of its networking bugs aren't that weird, they are pretty common networking issues you'd see from any other virtual machine configuration. Depending on what you are trying to do, switching WSL2's networking mode to "Mirrored" can be a useful way to fix networking issues by more closely aligning the VM network stack with the host network stack. This is often the fix for VM networking issues in other environments, too. Things like the host's VPN get reused directly instead of the VM needing to run its own VPN copy, for instance.
In case you want to hold on to Win 10, you can use their LTSC version + validate with massgrave / your own activation emulator. Win 10 21H2 IoT (LTS) end of life is 13 Jan 2032. You would have 7 years to figure out where to go from there, maybe straight to Windows 12.
It's an interesting read. I guess the difference between this situation and the ideal case is that he would have been admitted for observation as a precaution in a world where there was plenty of room and staff to take care of even the less obvious emergency cases.
Even in a very well functioning system similar cases might happen eventually, anyway (but at a much lower frequency). ROC plots come to mind.
I wonder what the prognosis was right after the operation. The article makes it sound a bit like this outcome was totally unexpected.
Insulin from pigs can be used by humans, right? But maybe there's more to diabetes than just a new pancreas. Interesting development, in any case. Thanks for sharing.
I think the major worry is that the body rejects the transplant. If that happens, things can turn really bad really fast. The body will attack the kidney and completely wreck it. They'd probably need surgery to remove it.
He'd probably need to go on dialysis if that were to happen. How long he'd survive IDK. I think I've read that people survive around 2 years on dialysis.

It can be. That was the first developed insulin. I believe it's completely synthetic at this point.
