sorry, i deleted that comment because it was..a little too much.

i would caution anyone with the resources to purchase a home to be cautious right now. there are too many political unknowns that could easily make it a poor financial choice.

or you can go all-in knowing that if you become underwater, you can just walk away (CA is a non-recourse state) as long as you don't have a HELOC on the property.
The post you are replying to was talking about a different model of the Model S to sell to enthusiasts who wanted more, not "for the average driver".
Easy is something else than no effort at all. Wordpress by default comes with RSS feeds enabled, but e.g. Jekyll doesn't - and I've seen many static sites even by tech-savvy people or for software libraries that hadn't enabled them. That means I have to contact site owners to enable their RSS feeds before I'm able to subscribe to them. And that's just when they're using a package like Jekyll that already has RSS support baked in.

Yes but pypy is designed for speed, not for simplicity. The source code is very, very hard to understand.

cPython is the reference implementation, and has an explicity goal of being easier to understand. Yet, some part of it are quite obscure.

So here we are, with this beautiful blog post
> This doesn't really surprise me, it's a natural consequence of the cloud era.

Not necessarily. As you mentioned yourself the cloud era just exposed existing bad practices. Perhaps over time that's even a net positive because people might start to take security more seriously.
If housing is only for people who've already been in a place, why do we allow children? Your argument is patently absurd. Especially in a growing state like California, accommodating newcomers is good if not necessary. I was born here, and I want to live in a place that welcomes outsiders and is affordable for all who want to live here. Don't you see you're just the beneficiary of a pyramid scheme?

A tax raise is not punitive if your taxes were not commensurate with what you need to contribute to society in the first place. A homeowner in California for the past 30 years has paid drastically less than what a homeowner in basically any other place would have, while probably getting more in terms of public services.

You got lucky. You got in early and now you get to benefit from the massive unfairness of Prop 13. I will also graduate in-state from a UC. What will I inherit? Will I ever be able to afford a decent home in the metro area I grew up in? I doubt it — and even if I did, how much less would the guy next door be paying than me every year?

It’s dangerous to point lasers at planes because if you hit the window the light scatters and illuminates the complete window, blinding the pilot.

There are videos on YouTube if you want to see what it looks like. It isn’t like you’re pointing directly into the pilots eye, the chances of that are rather slim.
Acqui-ad? Doing something bike-related is the "politician posing with a baby" of car companies.

If they combine accounts there will be true synergy though: many people either have zero rideshare accounts or almost all of them, the famous lack of moat. The same is probably true where multiple bikeshares are available. Those who have zero accounts in one "x-share" group and multiple in the other would be 100% locked to Uber when they occasionally do cross over from bikeshare to rideshare or vice versa.

You are 100% right with this being just a drop in the bucket though.
Seems like there's plenty of wind activity in the baltic. Couldn't you create off-shore wind farms like Denmark does?
Uber has become an expert in handling legal frameworks (in particular grey areas), politicians, and precarious workers. Bikes are exactly in their expertise area. Diversification is (IMHO) a good strategy to increase strength.
The problem is that 'similar space' is too easily misconstrued. What exactly is the 'space' that Google or Amazon operates in?
Sounds bad. It's vague but it's not permissive. I'd be afraid they were changing overt rules for hidden rules.
Where I live it's pretty common to have a 6-7 year old gaming PC with SSD, and RAM upgrade among less tech savvy people.

They are fast enough to do web browsing and media consumption.

i5-5350u from newest Macbook Air is actually way slower than 9 year old i7-960, and it's sufficient for most people.

Four year old Nexus 6P has latest system version.
Android One phones will have it too.

Time to live was a big difference in favor of Apple few years ago, but it's getting way better for Android phones now.

My 2014 RMBP is still the best laptop I have ever owned and everything before that was a Thinkpad, one of them a real IBM one. User-serviceability is overrated in general. You can still replace the battery in a MacBook, it just isn't easy. Mine is 4 years old and gets heavy daily usage and the battery is still acceptable although it is showing signs of age. I will probably look at getting it replaced next year.

My iPhone 6s is starting to act up, especially when cold but I haven't replaced the battery in that yet. I'll probably get that done this summer when the phone gets to the point it can't go a full day without a charge.

I don't care about the supposed technological superiority of a cellphone. I just want it to work. Apple seems to put more effort in to privacy and security and I like their business model more than Google's. I prefer to be a customer instead of a product.
It means the universe it vast, diverse, and ever changing. You are changing too, and your life is a function of time and space, so you will have a lot of opportunities for happiness. That's doesn't remove the hard things or the sadness, but it's here and it's a good skill to practice to be able to leverage it.

I tried clicking on the link to their PDF of exemptions - it is no longer available.

The actual ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC Section 25 does not mention exemptions for any type of cookies, and specifies:

"Users should have the opportunity to refuse to have a cookie or similar device stored on their terminal equipment. This is particularly important where users other than the original user have access to the terminal equipment and thereby to any data containing privacy-sensitive information stored on such equipment."

"It turns out that photosensitive diodes aren’t totally opaque — in fact, quite a lot of light passes right through them. So putting the solar cell under the image sensor doesn’t actually deprive it of light."

Does that also mean we could put multiple layers of photosensitive diodes under one another to perhaps get higher resolution images? or better images in the dark?
or get a hakko clone from aliexpress. half the price and just as good in my experience.
Also, not only will you change, but if you invest in something, your taste toward it will change as well. It's a nice trick for people looking for a passion: invest yourself in anything that has depth and you don't have, and you may end up getting passionate about it.

We often have it backward, trying to "feel like it" to do things. But it's one of the tricky things in life: you may very well have to do things so you can feel like it.

Is submitting posts from your own site spam as long as people find it useful? As long as they don't use ring-voting to get them on the front page it should be fine imo.
Higher resolution - no. Resolution is limited due to diffraction, so adding more pixels doesn't necessarily add more details.

Better images in the dark - possibly.
Family is in real estate— we would never purchase a property in San Francisco this late in the game (and I love that city!). The writing’s on the wall: that same law homeowners voted for to artificially lower their tax burden will also be the law that sends California into a bona fide housing crisis that makes the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis look like peanuts in comparison. It’s artificial, unsustainable, and shows a complete disregard for how markets work.

The current, very real housing shortages and homeless epidemic is just the tip of the iceberg.

General home connectivity also suffered, at least a few people (and myself) had connectivity issues, if you search for @vodafone_de on twitter you'll see a lot of people complaining (though I assume it was not just vodafone with issues)
Besides it means they don't have a culture for it at all, they just pay for it. That's a very different way to do it, with vastly different consequences.

One of them is how it influence internal decisions now and in the future. Another one is how it influence employees and their social circle.

But the most important thing is the total removal of the feeling of responsibility: it becomes an economic metrics. One of the things it means is the total lack of incentive to actually have results as long as it looks like you do have results, and so no checks will be ever done that the "commited" suppliers will actually do things correctly, and not just fake it.

I agree with your edit: it's a good start, and a good thing. At the very least it makes the promotion of a good value. But it's not the end of the effort as they promote it. It's barely the beginning.
