Another thing that breaks Jevon’s paradox are technologies that automate conservation. My company moved to a newly-constructed office building, and all the lights in conference rooms turn off automatically if there is no-one there. A neighbor is installing the same type of tech in his house (he's admittedly an early adopter/gadget lover, so he isn't as concerned with the payback period). I can only see this trend accelerating as the tech cost falls.

Can confirm...when I was living in AZ the main argument against net metering is that the Utility company would suffer...nevermind the fact that solar users would benefit, the state legislators and ACC (Arizona Corporation Commission) always sides with the utility company.
I was very surprised by this one. I will never, ever, under any circumstances, put my CC details in a form hosted on a domain I'm not 100% confident with (s.a apple/amazon). I can't believe I'm an outlier on this one. Maybe it's because I belong to the nowhere-dense set of developers?
Phone LEDs which put out 1W in a much smaller package somehow survive.
This. I once ran a SaaS for $7/mo. Churn rate was horrible. People never stayed longer than 3mo. Now I do something with a 4 figure / mo price tag and people stick around for 7/mo on avg. it’s totally counterintuitive
I would consider another EV - for me that's the main I'm looking for in my next car. The reason I'm waiting for a model 3 rather than already driving a Bolt or Leaf is largely a matter of battery longevity. I want to have some assurance that the battery will not need replacing in the first 5-10 years. Tesla so far seems to be the best in that regard with their large packs and active pack management. The beauty and performance of the car are a nice plus, but even with that I'm not certain I'll wind up with a 3.

Your reasoning sounds like an easy excuse to not bother looking at any regulations period. Because knowing every single regulation is too onerous and you probably know all your local ones intuitively, right?

From what I've seen so far, none of the Ryzen APUs pack as much graphics power as the Vega-powered Kaby Lake Gs, which is disappointing.

I was hoping for a Ryzen NUC that would be powerful enough to use as an HTPC and ultra-portable gaming machine, but it appears that won't be happening.
I'm not sure what you search for but that has never happened to me in about 7 years of searching.

You can always appeal to get a question re-opened. You can see who voted to close it and then send them a message.

The worst place for things getting closed is Skeptics SE, but that's a hotbed of controversy and the moderators on there deserve danger money.
It's not "capitalism".. it's publicly traded companies. That's the root of the issue. Stockholders demand their stock increase in value, otherwise there was no point in buying stock.
You’re being deliberately obtuse.

It’s the same thing as gas: fuel, to power a car. It just happens to be a slightly different mix of hydrocarbons. It’s sold from the same machine, at the same place for the same purpose. And it’s taxed the same way in pretty much all European countries, Germany is the odd outlier. Different kinds of petrol are taxed the same way, too.

The same mix of hydrocarbons that is diesel fuel is sold for heatings as well (Heizöl) It’s taxed different - since it’s a different use. And since that one is taxed much lower, they add a red color and using it as fuel is tax evasion and lands you in jail.
I'd like to see some real-world reports on how useable having most of the controls in the screen are. My first concern is being able to accurately interact with it while the car is moving -- personally my arm would be bouncing all over the place from car motion when the arm is extended that far.

As a point of reference, my Ford has their new Sync 3 system, and I often need to steady my hand by resting the thumb just past the edge of the screen. Many controls are available on my car as physical knobs, levers, and buttons, in addition to the screen, but some things like setting dual-zone climate control or manually moving the vent between floor and dash are screen only. And I typically can only mess with that at a stop light.

Now the counter-arguments on the Tesla would include that their self-driving capabilities decrease the risk of looking at the screen for a few seconds, and the screen placement probably helps too. But I'd still like to see some long-term reports as situations arise, such as when a passing truck sprays water/mud on the windshield and you need to quickly increase the speed of the wipers to high and put the windshield wash on. Or a rapidly changing climate condition causes the windshield to suddenly fog over (doesn't happen that often, but it has for me periodically), and you need to take a glove off to get the screen to work.

My other gripe is that the screen isn't molded into the dash, but on a stem sticking out -- it doesn't really look like it is part of the car. And looking at the pictures, the only thing I can think of is that this was a cost cut, as it is probably expensive designing and manufacturing all the normal dash controls.

But then again, I could be wrong, but if not, I really hope the rest of the industry doesn't follow. And I hope that this isn't a trend for Tesla, and future models will have more driver friendly controls.
anyone knows anything similar for matplotlib?
Islands are pretty good candidates to start this. We have a couple here in NL but the majority have vehicle access through ferries.
Not quite. The large round speedometer in the center on the mini is only to honor the old mini look. They also have a fairly large digital speedometer on the top of the steering column.
Your counter argument doesn't make sense in the context of Flutter; it's not a tool you would use for mobile game development.

Xi came of age during the cultural revolution, which means he participated as a red guard, was sent down to the country side, went to college late, and much of his college education was ideological rather than practical. He is the first leader who is a career politician (has an engineering degree but never used it) and the first whose appointment is clearly about nepotism rather than merit. So...interesting guy.
Where does blame get placed when there is a computational error and my self-driving car kills another human-being? Am I still liable under my insurance policy even though the error was out of my control? Is there any conversation going on about insuring self-driving vehicles and responsibility when an error does occur and someone is killed?

I agree on keeping it clean and avoiding antibiotics in superficial situations, but I'm surprised by a concern regarding peroxide. Any cut with any depth I have that may have anaerobic potential at all, I use early and often. Anerobes can be tough, and I've not sensed tissue toxicity from Peroxide, (Isoproanol, for sure).
That was exactly the first thing I noticed. I think it's incredibly odd, but revealing, that even the tax man knows there's a common feeling of being beat up by taxes.

Then again, I'm not sure if tax commissioner is a position that usually attracts the politically savvy.

The moment the Chinese government becomes aware of hacker news and starts paying people 50 cents a post, we won't be able to even find the legitimate comments under the epic pile of shill :D

I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet, when I think about it.

Also, there are actual Chinese people (a lot of them) that are pretty supportive of their government. And many that aren't. But unfortunately you can't assume trolling behavior based on this.
According to https://cleantechnica.com/2018/02/26/can-tesla-learn-chevy-b..., Tesla managed to build Tesla 3 faster and in greater volume that GM managed to build Chevy Bolt.

Is that accurate?

I don't know but I'm pretty sure manufacturing a completely new car in volume is challenging for any car company, including those that are 100 years old, have tons of money, existing factories and lots of employees.
I don’t think we want that. I’m just telling what’s happening.
A portable vacuum chamber. Pretty cool. So unlike a pressure altimeter, this could also work in space. And unlike a radar altimeter, you don't need a direct line of sight to the surface.

Although seems like the measurement could also be distorted by large masses like the moon...
Can you point me to a definitive source as to what websites that have access log that include IP addresses (which is pretty much everyone) have to do to be compliant? If there are steps that must be taken, who has to taken them?

I've been looking, and I have found a bunch of contradictory explanations. My best guess is that if you have a disclaimer that says you log IP addresses for security purposes, you can keep your access logs indefinitely. (see: https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2041760-access-logs-i...)

This seems like the sort of concern that should be clearly addressed with an official answer before the regulation takes effect.
Likewise, I grew up in Scarsdale. Very few of my friends work withinin the same industry. Excluding a few people in finance, I'm working through my group of friends in my head and everyone else works in a different industry: publishing, law, actuarial, fashion, art sales, advertising, education, medicine, and insurance (just off the top of my head). What's really nice about it is that we're all able to learn a bit about each industry. I don't need a mile deep, but it's nice to learn a few feet wide.

This is what fuels the revolving door. Regulations create a class of workers with previous experience in the regulatory and political system, that fetch an access premium.

Another example of this is members of Congress who become lobbyists seeing an average increase of 1,500% in their salary upon the career change.

iOS does interact well with C.
>it communicates cheapness; I’d suggest you drop the 0.99 accordingly here

>I’d probably increase your pricing to $99 / $499 / $2,499

Would the argument that $X.99 implies cheapness not apply to $X99 as well? I feel like 99 anything is an old psychological trick to make the customer feel like they aren't really paying $500... they are paying $499.
Should be a heads-up display.
Beam Search – A Search Strategy
I've been trying to figure out the ideal pricing structure for EnvKey[1], a saas configuration and secrets manager. I want something that is affordable for indie devs and smaller teams, but then scales up for larger companies who face this problem to a greater degree and tend to see more value in solving it.

The pricing is currently per user, since I've envisioned it as a tool that you'd invite all your developers onto. For the most part, this has been the case, but there are some companies using it heavily on the server-side and only inviting a small number of users.

To account for this, I've considered charging a small amount per access key (say $2/mo for a base plan) instead of per user. A typical app has an access key for each developer working on it, plus one per server, so for a team of 5 this would work out to ~16/app/month (assuming test, staging, and production server environments; some have more). Most teams seem to have at least a few apps; some have as many as 10.

The good thing is this would scale up with usage, starting very low and then getting pretty substantial as you get more and more use out of the product. The bad thing is... it would scale up with usage, and therefore might disincentive heavy use.

Any thoughts?

>It's amazing to me how China is so effectively creating a 1984-type situation without much stir among the rest of the world.

This is perhaps because of several things:

1) That's the way "the rest of the world's" governments and corporate interests want their own countries to go, and have been pushing towards since decades. The rest of the world's leaders (most of them) could not care less for the lip service they pay to "freedom" et al.

2) A superpower gets to do whatever it likes "without much stir from the rest of the world". Heck, France and Britain had 1/3rd of the world, outside or their national borders, enslaved "without much stir from the rest of the world" until well after WWII. And suddenly the "rest of the world" will care for what China does to its own citizens?

3) It's nobody's business really what China does to its own citizens. There are other countries with the worlds largest prison population and most police shootings (by crazy amounts, like having 25% of the worlds prisoners for 4% of the worlds population), and they continue in that path "without much stir among the rest of the world". Why would it be different here?
That's why I qualified with "easily traded."

I have seen people argue for it still working for other forms of property (most notably houses; I don't want to be forced out of my home) with the argument that if people set a value e.g. 2x what the property is worth, that will deter forced selling and then the tax rate can be lowered slightly to be revenue neutral. I'm less convinced.
There are plenty of cars with speedometer positioned in the middle (particularly from french automakers), some people don't mind that.

I personally never even look at the car with speedometer in the middle, just cannot stand the looks of it. Maybe by the time I will be able to afford Model 3 I'll grow not to mind their interior looks, but at this moment it's the most horrible looking interior I have seen. Seems more like something what hobbyist would do rather then automaker. Sad really.
They may have said it, but the CCP nevertheless used propaganda, Han-centric nationalism, and control of the news media to elevate certain leaders into cult status. Xi and Deng are obvious examples, but I also recall the Jiang apparatus trying to play that card as well.

Marcus Aurelius was followed by Commodus, and Charlemagne's grandsons broke the Carolingian Empire in civil war. As IntronExon pointed out, a major problem with benevolent dictators for life is that their successors may not be as benevolent. Furthermore, most dictators throughout history were not nearly as competent as the half-dozen handpicked examples.

Possibly off topic, but I'll ask it here anyway in case someone can point me in the right direction: I'd like to ship a preloaded and privately owned 20 ft shipping container from urban West Coast US to rural East Coast US. From what I can tell, probably would make sense as truck-train-truck intermodal freight transport. But this seems to be rare enough I'm not finding a lot of information online, at least given those search terms. Are there better terms to search for? Who would I talk to about this for what is likely a one-time shipment?
The last time I did a first aid course, they really pushed the idea of just water and bandages. They cautioned against the use of other ointments as well as alcohol and peroxide as they can dry out the wound, prolonging healing. It certainly went against everything I feel like I would normally do, but it makes sense.

I'd be curious if this is a recent* change in methods, or a recent* push to ensure people are doing it.

*recent being the few years between when I've taken first aid courses.
It seems you're confusing the effects of travel being slow with the effects of travel being unreliable. It's not the slowness of a train that's annoying you, it's that the train has slowed unpredictably.

That said, I suppose there's every reason to think traffic impacts of self-driving cars (more cars circling, waiting for passengers) would make traffic slower and more unpredictable.

Edit: And, of course, the people in the non-self-driving cars would get the slowness without any direct benefit to themselves.
Don’t fall into the cost-plus trap. Figure out typical usage sizes and then provide tiered pricing. Don’t underestimate what people will pay, and don’t try to capture the $2 user. They will not make you rich unless you have mega capital to find millions of them.
"missing" is relative.

The original official (from Tesla/Musk) estimate for mass production (5k / week) of Tesla 3 was 2020.

In 2014 they moved that back by 2 years to early 2018.

In late 2017 they moved that forward by 6 months, to mid 2018.

So depending on which official estimate you're looking at, they are either 6 months late or 1.5 years ahead.

And by tiered, I mean $49/mo for up to 10 keys, $249.99/mo for up to 50 keys, etc... and gate features at each tier.
Net metering is not the same thing as only paying for what you use. Net metering means you could push 4 kWh during the day and draw 4 kWh overnight and get metered as zero consumption from the grid. This pushes a storage and distribution cost onto the utility and its other customers. Paying you at wholesale for the daytime push and charing you at retail for the nighttime draw moves those costs back to you.

What others are saying above is that you could generate 4 kWh during the day and consume it on premises, i.e. with air-conditioning or other day time appliance use, and still have zero consumption from the grid. This is also the point of the powerwall and any other on-premises energy storage.
It works even though it looks cheesy.

A listening device in private homes is a genie that won't go back in its bottle.

Somehow almost all phone manufacturers in 2018 still include hardware buttons in their phones, precisely when the UX of a hardware button is better.
>But, when Go came out, there were no libraries. And it didn't get so much bad press.

1. Go had a lot going for it when it came out (single, static, exe, memory safety).

2. Go's stdlib came with a lot out of the box. To the extent that you can write some fairly complicated code without touching a single library.

3. There was cgo.
