In theory, because they have less parts that need maintenance they could be. Right now, from what I've read, the biggest problem with Tesla's vehicles is that so few places can maintain them.

That may change when Tesla's 30K-ish vehicle launches.
Wow, really sorry to hear that happened! I would be in a panic if that happened to me. I feel like that site could have been used for good, to maybe scramble user profiles. As another user commented here, the terrorist search terms seem like a really unnecessarily extreme joke. Do you think you were suspended because of the high volume of automated searches or would it have something to do with the actual content?
Yep. And BMW at $17800 over 10 years, but the most expensive individual model for BMW was the 328i at $15600

It's not the bandwidth that's the problem, it's the latency. Many problems need more control flow and branching, and that is better done on the CPU. If you need to make decisions and take the previous iterations output as an input, then the overhead of transferring the data back and forth from cpu to gpu outweighs the benefit of the gpu speed.

GPUs are good if you have an independent data parallel algorithm you are using to transform large blocks of floating point data. For other uses, CPU is better.
I'm confused as well. They call lexus domestic, plus one of the more expensive to maintain. Next paragraph they mention how lexus is cheap to maintain
No, hostility in the context of playing the game is fine. Its a PvP game so that wouldn't be a tenable policy. You can go and kill the other team all you want. Poor behavior in the in-game chat or metagame is whats at issue here: sending other people messages to insult them, throwing matches on purpose to "get back" at your team, being a poor sport, etc.

Edit: Here's an analogy. Consider if you were playing a basketball game and one of the players slapped the ball out of his teammate's hand and started screaming in his face about how he s a terrible player and should have been aborted. That's the sort of behavior we're talking about.
Technically linq isn't an orm, but I guess there's still a lot of overlap with points in the article. Eg you still need to know SQL and the linq abstraction on top of that.

What I like about linq/EF is that it doesn't force you into other anti patterns (active record, repository etc) but that's probably just a matter of opinion.
Sidenote since this is getting so much attention: How does the website control the URL of an external tab? Is this effectively tabnabbing?
I have daily driver Porsche under warranty. I don't have hard numbers but it's been very reasonable. I had two certified pre-owned BMWs and never paid a cent for their entire lifetime. Porsche has cost me for tires but was brand new and under warranty. Fuel pump failed, replaced under warranty. I drive it everyday. It's brilliant. German engineering is great. Thinking S class Mercedes next. Is this helpful? or just bragging? haha :-)
I don't know about your field but from what you say, it seems you shouldn't target security officers but rather salespersons. By definition, complying won't be voluntary. It has to be forced. You say it's required to close a sale so it follows that salespersons will want it, then they can force it upon the security officers.
Should you give up on your dream? Here's how to know.
Not really... I actually rather expected it to be an article like just about anything else here.

It was not labeled "Show HN" or anything, and apparently only required opening the link (I did not open it myself).

Edit: I guess I was misinformed about this last - micaeked says that you have to click a button on the page.

Another way of looking at this is by questioning why it is so expensive for people to obtain redress in civil matters in the first place. If Hogan had not benefited from Thiel's interest and otherwise could not afford to mount his case, then it appears that any transgressions against him would simply stand.

Where's the justice in that?
Not quite the same: there are strong legal protections on the privacy of medical records that don't exist as to phone records.

I'll also quibble about this part:

> since you voluntarily gave your phone records to your phone company

You didn't "give your phone records to your phone company." You never had any phone records. Your phone company created those records. That's another distinction with the case here: Oregon's PDMP didn't create those records. It received them with strict federal requirements as to how to handle them.
Sure, you could acquire a patent and cease paying maintenance fees, or place it under a very broad license or covenant.
Go on! Blame that victim.

Anecdotal evidence - my sister had a 1st generation SRX sport-utility, and for whatever reason, Cadillac decided to put different tire widths on the front & rear wheels, with directional tread. This means you can't rotate the tires. It's also an all-wheel-drive model. So if you have an alignment issue that causes tire wear, or a puncture that can't be repaired, you can't just buy one tire -- you have to buy a full set of four at $200 (front) and $250 (rear) each.

Repair costs like that adds up quickly. Like the $1200 3rd row seat motor that died. She started calling it the thousand-dollar-car, since any repairs were around that price.
It is, but seeing it on HN made me think it was "ruin" along the lines of "throw off Google interest-based ads" not "get you on a list".
Exactly, as representatives you're held to a higher standard in setting the tone for the community, regardless of the time of day. That said, this should have been made clear to every employee up front if it's that important to them.
I wonder where research on generating intelligible stories by computer is.

I think Roger Schank had some research on "scripts" in the 1980s, involving models of people's interactions and motivations. That might not have been very useful for AI in general, but maybe it's useful if you wanted to literally generate scripts for people to act out.

I'm sure you could make computer models of stories by combining models of scripts, tropes, and agents. I mean, a simple case would be something like The Sims, where the simulated agents act out simple stories autonomously and in response to prompts. You could probably make movies based on Sims stories already, although it's better at generating situations than dialogue!

Regarding unanticipated software updates, this may be slightly off topic, but updates are particularly troublesome with Windows 10. Unfortunately Win10 doesn't permit reviewing updates before downloading them, an option that was available in prior versions. Even though Win10 Pro version users can delay update installation, automatic downloads can't be turned off and occur without prior notification.

While some tools are available to reduce tracking and other MS privacy-invading practices, auto-updating remains a curse that's hard to counter.

Obviously this is not a fault of the web itself, but an example of the ways vendors use the internet in opposition to interests of users. It's unclear how these abusive practices can be curbed, but I'm all for Mozilla and other organizations trying to do something about it.
You do have to click a button after opening the url.
I'm curious: does anyone know whether Google searches are truly monitored, and how, if it's HTTPS?

I showed ruinmysearchhistory.com to a Pakistani Muslim friend, not having clicked it myself, and he thought it was funny until the ISIS application parts started coming up, when he consequently freaked out, as you might imagine.

But this got me wondering -- it seems to be widely accepted that googling things like "how to make a bomb," "bomb materials," "where to buy guns," etc will get you put on a government watchlist.

It's never been clear to me whether this is superstition or if there's truth to it. Google is fully HTTPS-- how could your searches be monitored unless google was handing them over to the government?
Honestly I don't have an opinion on the creepiness / necessity of riot doing this... but anyone else notice how common the dichotomy between "forced politeness" and "free toxicity" occurs in naturally occurring human interactions?

In MOBA games, we have DotA versus LoL

In internet forums, we have 4chan versus Reddit

In nations, we have USA versus China

And even in traditional families, we have dad versus mom

For some reason, even though freedom and structure are polar opposites, as humans we apparently demand access to both.
Is it actually worldwide though?

Ford has improved their reliability considerably, post-bailout. Ford is really the only example I can see of the bailout doing anything good.

Pre-bailout, Ford was pretty abysmal. I would actually say they were less reliable than GM. They took the influx of cash and overhauled their entire manufacturing AND design processes to turn out some great cars. The only thing in their lineup looking bleak to me is the Escape (ugh, just no).

The problem is that they're still pretty cheap on their interiors and panels tend to come loose and break a lot. American consumers tend to value interior over most other car features unfortunately. Modern Fords, save for the Escape, are pretty reliable and Honda has shown themselves to be much less so in recent years. Mazda is still too small volume to matter.

tl;dr: Ford is great now, Toyota is still on top, Honda is majorly slipping and GM still blows goats.
This almost exactly mirrors the points made by _Suburban Nation_ in 2000. If you're truly interested in this topic, I highly recommend reading the original instead of the online Cliff Notes.
"victim"
Weren't maintenance laws ended for a reason? In England I thought it had more to do with the differences in class, commoners could sue lords but without another lord on their side they were pretty disadvantaged. So other lords could simply lend their name or backing to a commoner and the original lord would have to fight a more substantial case, regardless of merit. The lords passed the law to protect themselves. Lords and commoners are closer now.

I'd argue that maybe we need to come up with a way to go even further. This is only interesting because the idea of actually materially harming a corporation through litigation is so foreign these days. That and for some reason a few employees of some major news papers have allowed gawker to be lumped in with their own publications, giving "maintenance" to the idea that this is a first amendment issue. Do you have anything to substantiate that it's "not good" to allow third-party money in the courts? I'm sure there are things we haven't thought of but can it be worse than big money in politics? There are still judges that run their courts, right? They still have a roll here.
I guess I'm just not sure exactly what, save for trivial queries the ORM is actually good at abstracting?

We can all write simple queries with simple joins (I hope), that doesn't really save much time. In my experience anything more than a trivial model with a boiler-plate relation it becomes not worth it...
It reads a lot like Racter (I think I read that The Policeman's Beard is Half-Constructed actually involved a lot of human selection of amusing and interesting utterances).
Ford wasn't bailed out.
It's not about it "counting", it's about what patterns violence follows. Mental health interventions, gun control, counterterrorism operations, etc don't help gang-related shootings.
You have an interesting definition of "entry-level".
Of course not. Those totals would be ridiculous if only for oil changes.
Does no one else remember the Take The Poo to the Loo video UNICEF produced to target this problem in India? It seems like if they have to go that far, it's a major problem. https://youtu.be/_peUxE_BKcU
I think most US consumers with newer cars typically only get maintenance done when they do their oil changes. Usually other services get tacked on the same bill. If they're just going by total receipt, this is probably fine.
Thats not true compared to ubuntu.
while centos 7 included java8, ubuntu 14.04 did not, both released on 2014.
And on CentOS 6 I'm not sure but I think EPEL (which is way more official than any ubutnu PPA) has openjdk 8 for centos 6. there is some software that is maybe "old" but not "outdated" on centos, however as far as I know most software runs on centos, really good.
The only thing which has bad support on CentOS at the moment is openssl 1.0.2 and newer nginx/haproxy.
In principle, I agree with you. In practice, I think we're entering somewhat untrodden waters.

Certainly : acting like a fool in your place of employ is bad. However, using your analogy as an example, what's happening here is also a bit like those 3 AM campus shenanigans that occurred while you were a student being held against you when you go looking for a job - since Riot is screening potential employees based on their game history.

If Riot screens applicants based on their LoL behavior, then why shouldn't Facebook? Google? Why shouldn't any of these respective companies sell said information to other 3rd party companies that want to pre-screen hires?

Ultimately I guess I'm arguing against a fully transparent world, because as happy as I am with my electronic footprint - I'm not sure how happy I am about the idea of everyone in the world who I interact with peering at it with a microscope.
A better place to check this information is:

It's not written well, but I imagine they are getting the cost of all work completed when an oil change is completed. Typically owners will get scheduled maintenance done at the same time they get an oil change done. 1 appointment instead of 2.

I suffer, on occasion, from depression and anxiety. When I'm having an episode, my brain doesn't function.

I don't mean that I can't solve problems. I mean I can't hold a conversation.

I wonder if the reason so many people fail is because we've essentially put them in an artificial situation that shuts their brain down.

(I have also been dumbfounded by the inability of recent CS graduates to do FizzBizz... I feel like it's not certain our candidates are frequently flawed. Maybe it's our environment.)
Alright, I assumed Porsche 911 to be entry level - for that both Ferrari and Lamborghini have similarly specced models. If you meant Boxster or even Cayman then maybe not.

Ah nice! I was unsure if the first had gotten through bors yet or not, and I was pretty sure the second one hadn't.
Sadly, you're right.

The problem is that hosts have too much control over client's experience. Frankly, most of the works designers today do on the web is work that should not be done - 90% of websites would be infinitely better if they only sent text with lightweight semantic annotations and a list of available actions. The user should be able to explore the data in whatever way they please, and not be shoehorned into a single prescribed way of interaction.

That said, your point on incentives is spot-on. People making money on the web benefit from any marginal increase of control they can get - so the whole thing turns into a typical race to the bottom. And then, they also can (and do) use their money to influence the development of web technologies to make it easier for them to make more money. This process sadly isn't any different than regulations being influenced by businesses to benefit them instead of society.

Is there a solution? I don't know. Most people don't even realize how much of their own time and potential they waste by accepting the "status quo". I hope someone eventually develops a browser with sole purpose of unfucking the Internet. Some kind of a cross between links, Emacs and the Reader Mode from Firefox.
Nope.

This article is specifically addressing social media accounts. Trying to lump your 'gamer tag' under that section is pretty sleazy.
All over the place. :) I'm busy writing a federated subscription resolution framework, and I was finding it difficult to maintain a coherent dependency graph with mutable data structures.
Yes it was. Ford got $5.9 billion in TALF money. Nissan got some too. Just because it wasn't TARP doesn't mean that it wasn't a bailout. They also got a $9 billion line of credit from the government.

Clever PR misdirection on their part.

They were also lucky in their timing - they had already mortgaged about $18 billion in assets in 2006. Neither one of those events on their own would have been enough to save the company. Both turned them into a major competitor again.
No, that makes no sense because you wouldn't see that kind of variance in the prices.

I think in your quote they're saying they're using oil changes as a unit of time. This is because oil changes are usually done on a regular cycles, and because when you get your oil changed you often get your other maintenance done.
How accurate are fertility tracking apps?
I knew that you were talking about the US and Brazil even before you finished.

There's a twist in the way US immigration law works:

> because the consular officers often assume intent to overstay the visa

They are required to by law and regulations. The burden is on you to prove you have enough ties to your home country to go back before your time is up.

Depending on how old you are, being enrolled in college and traveling during vacations is enough. A little older, having a decent job is a good sign. Being a software engineer, for instance, is better, no matter if the janitor who was denied before you had money in his account. I've never been asked to show any sort of financial proof whatsoever. For the US, at least.

They also look into your family. If one of them has overstayed a visa or otherwise done bad things in the eyes of the immigration authorities, you'll have a really hard time. Or an easier time, if they have done everything right.

Now, suppose you have a relative who has applied your permanent residence. And then you decide to visit them for vacation while that is ongoing (can take more than a decade). You now have intent to immigrate, the application itself is the proof. Good luck.
That's mostly correct. I have a chapter on adding instrumentation to applications with examples in Ruby/Rails and Clojure that can easily be adapted to other languages and frameworks. I also cover adding structured logging to your applications.
Considering how much information the NSA has collected and how regularly, i think they should have been able to stop drug sales and bust most if not all drug-dealers a long long ago, without any need for accessing medical data.
> People colonizing the New World from Europe didn't plan on coming right back, never to voyage again.

I'm tired of this comparison with the American continent. I've expressed my opinion about it before[1], but I guess I should do it again.

It's a terrible comparison. The American continent is not an other planet. It was just a place Europeans did not know about. Living there was not much different from living in Europe, and doing so did not require new technologies or anything : in fact it was already inhabited by people who were not more technologically advanced (and that's an euphemism).

If mars looked anything like what America looked like before Colombus, I would totally be up to colonize it. But it does not.

I was thinking, IPFS + Gopher or a Gopher-like system. But lose the damn JS, use Lua or something if so desired, and lose the JS web compatibility requirement. Allow public key encryption and signing on a per-document basis.
I've had this idea for a long time. It would be amazing to get the data on exactly what gets fixed in each of the auto repair shops, which then would let you figure out which cars are the most reliable, and how much owning one would cost in the long run, and maybe leads to some preventative measures to minimize the damage. I thought about it for years, and couldn't figure out a way to get the data cheaply.
I couldn't disagree with your more. The author was using interesting rhetoric and you misquoted him in an attempt to censor him.

You are asking people to silently and politely discuss issues that very serious and very problematic.

Honestly, seeing the moderator of HN say this, has made me question if HN is worth participating in anymore. To me this is the turning point where 'dang' demands civility in uncivil situations and mutes and waters down the discussion.

I very dissapointed in you.
No, the government is held to a higher standard because they control the police and military. There are countless issues where I'd say the government should be restricted in a way that private parties are not.

Besides, the government already has sovereign immunity to lawsuits unless it chooses to allow itself to be sued. So if anything your first sentence is backward.
Does it take into account the fact that BMW offers free service (even oil changes) for 3 years (36,000 miles) and on top of that you can get relatively cheap extensions, and if you buy a certified pre-owned used car you get a "free" extra 2 years /50K miles on top of the original warranty and you can even get an extra protection plan for 6 years/100K miles.
Show HN: Setupgoon – Better setup.py by extorting information from files
I can confirm. I went to pieces once when asked to do FizzBuzz when I wasn't expecting to code in a phone interview. I'm not a "rock star" programmer but in the absence of pressure I can knock out a FizzBuzz in < 2 minutes. And I have written real software used by real users that made money for my employers.
A function to have in your setup.py to :

- grep version number from another file

- set description with another module docstring

- set long description from a README.md (not .rst as usual) file content

I tried to pack the more features in a minimal amount of LOC (~20)
I really wanted to buy a Mazda, they're cheap, reliable, safe, and have nice features. But they literally don't sell one which has enough driver's legroom and headroom for tall people...

For example the Mazda6 has great legroom but bad headroom. The CX-5 has great headroom but bad legroom. The CX-3 has bad both.

If you need a vehicle with good headroom AND legroom you're almost required to buy a Subaru (Forester, Legacy, or Outback), Prius V, Toyota RAV4, or Nissan Rogue. It is pathetic how limited the choice is.

PS - You can see roominess metrics on Edmunds[0], just scroll down to interior measurements.

They also show Lexus as third cheapest to maintain on the chart. Stopped reading at this line and came to HN comments to see if I was missing something. Very confusing.
