I have no idea how well such a system works, but, I found these lines pretty jarring:

> They found it fires on ordinary driving, not just distracted driving.

> Glance away from an empty highway to take in the scenery, or look at the infotainment screen to change a song, and the warning goes off anyway.

Like, isn't that the point, that if you aren't looking at the road it should go off?

If you don't like the debian model, didn't use debian. There are people that like the debian model, it seems like you aren't one of them, though. That doesn't make them wrong.

My understanding is that existing Ebay shareholders would get half cash and half stock. In order to actually profit, those shareholders would need to believe that the combined company's stock could be sold off without taking a significant loss.

I strongly suspect that its not feasible to colocate pijul and git. git and jj are based on snapshots, while pijul is based on patches. They have very different models.

One thing JJ has that git doesn't is the concept of first class conflicts. In JJ, rebasing or merging never fails, but it might record a conflict to resolve later. Git, on the otherhand, forces you to drop we everything to resolve conflicts immediately. It sounds like a small thing - but in my experience, being able to resolve conflicts later when I feel like it is absolutely amazing and really helps reduce context switching.

You are supposed to supervise Tesla FSD. Waymo doesn't require someone in the driver's seat at all. They aren't the same thing.

The problem, IMO, with asyncio is that its way, way too complicated. In my experience, anyio (https://github.com/agronholm/anyio) provides a much better interface on top of asyncio. And since it can use asyncio as a backend, it maintains compatibility with the asyncio ecosystem. FastAPI, for example, uses anyio.

One thing that I don't see being mentioned in any of the threads here talking about green threads is cancellation. A huge benefit, IMO, of anyio is that it makes cancellation really easy to handle. With asyncio, cancellation is pretty hard. And with green threads, cancellation is often impossible.

In my experience, the key to using asyncio is to use anyio. Anyio is an interface that you can use ontop of asyncio and fixes most of its shortcomings.

Those are some pretty strong generalizations that I'm not convinced are true all the time.

> Apps like Uber that ... follow the strategy of running faster than laws are also a good example of something that is damaging our society.

Re just the part about running faster than the laws: As best as I can tell, app based taxis exist solely because Uber ignored the laws - and good (in some cases) that they did as the laws were designed to protect the entrenched businesses that had no incentive to change regardless of how well they were working. Anecdotally, I've seen a huge increase in people taking Uber or Lyft to or from a happy hour when 10 years ago those same people would likely have decided to drive because calling a traditional Taxi was so much of a pain. Ignoring the laws is a weak criticism when sometimes that is the only way to achieve progress.

No comment on how they treat their employees - that is its own complicated issue that I won't comment on here.

> You're starting to realize that not all cultures are that great.

That's sounding pretty racist
