For instance, in Greece https://www.lawspot.gr/nomothesia/pk/arthro-259-poinikos-kod... (N.B. the bar of wilfulness in this section in the Greek criminal code is much lower than the corresponding notion of wilfulness in the U.S.)

The bar is high, of course, and yet people have historically managed to get prosecuted, lose their jobs, and go to prison.

I think the problem in the U.S. is, ironically, the power of police unions in a fragmented police force (city, territory, county, etc.) ecosystem, coupled with the lack of unified, express state and federal statutes to enforce a standard of care and competence.

Add to that that peace officer-specific state statutes (e.g., describing manslaughter while on duty) are written in such a way that, as a matter of law, it becomes a herculean task to tick all the boxes to successfully preserve a conviction on appeal. It is truly troubling. (I am hopeful, as this can be solved by the U.S. legislature, which I think we have a lot of reasons to demand to be done.)

If anyone has any real clues that they can share pseudonymously, that would be great. Not sure which department drove that change.

Starts from linear transformations and builds from there.

Have fun!

It is all hit or miss. Everyone claims they do high-quality, critical software in public, while in private, they claim the opposite, that they are fast and break things, and programming is an art, not math.

And then you have venture capital firms now pushing "vibe coding."

Software development is likely the highest variance engineering space, sometimes and in some companies, not even being engineering, but "vibes."

It is interesting how this is going to progress forward. Are we going to have a situation like the Quebec Bridge [https://colterreed.com/the-failed-bridge-that-inspired-a-sim...]. The Crowdstrike incident taking down the whole airspace proved that is not enough. Market hacks in "decentralized exchanges," the same. Not sure where we are heading.

I guess we are waiting for some catastrophe that will have some venture capital liable for the vibe coding, and then we will have world wide regulation pushed on us.

Résumé/CV: https://eftychis.org/cv/cv_industry.pdf

Veteran Cryptographer and Distributed Systems Engineer with multiple large-scale, high-value distributed systems delivered. (incl. byzantine fault tolerance & consensus protocols.) Experience bringing secure and private machine learning to production, from low-level code to engaging B2B customers and directing projects on a global scale (U.S., Europe, Asia). Passionate about leading, mentoring, and providing high-impact.

People don't want to be associated with fraud and would do any mind tricks to explain things away, while knowing the illusion is there.

First: I have experience with Bevy and other game engine frameworks; including Unreal. And I consider myself a seasoned Rust, C etc developer.

I could sympathize with what was stated by the author.

I think the issue here is (mainly) Bevy. It is just not even close to the standard yet (if ever). It is hard for any generic game engine to compete with Unity/GoDot. Nevermind, the de facto standard of Unreal.

But if you are a C# developer and using Unity already, and not C++ in Unreal, going to a bloated framework that is missing features that is Bevy makes little sense. [And here is also the minor issue, that if you are a C# developer, honestly you don't care about low level code, or not having a garbage collector.]

Now if you are a C++ developer and use Unreal, they only point to move to Rust (which I would argue for the usual reasons) is if Unreal supports Rust. Otherwise, there is nothing that even compares to Unreal. (That is not custom made game engine.)

The other issue is that in a lot of countries speed limits are arbitrary: either too low or too high for the area. Speed limits are not dynamic and usually are actually set so that a percentage of traffic violates them. Or are set once and never adjusted.

States in the US are culprits of all above issues. Plus the lack of alternative transportation. So this whole topic is a Pandora's box that doesn't take easy solutions.

The reason is that what constitutes an official act is up in the air, and let us be honest, the incumbent president is not known for staying inside the Executive branch's lane.

But the sheer unwillingness of the DOJ to prosecute, creates a catch-22: you need indictments to change or clarify Trump v. United States, 603 U.S. 593, and right now there are two options:

Somehow revive the private right to criminal prosecution (and of the president at that)(See Linda R.S. v. Richard D., (1973) 410 U.S. 614 (citations omitted)) or a Federal Court to appoint counsel to investigate a former or incumbent president. (Young v. U.S. ex re. Vuitton et Fils, (1987) 481 U.S. 787.) And I am not sure which one is less likely to happen. (Or for Congress to take that role beyond impeachment, which is even less likely.)
