TBH I prefer ads. As a small business owner, online ads have allowed me to grow my extremely niche business without spending a large bundle of funding, and I'm sure it's helped countless more small businesses compete against the big box stores that can afford to do their own advertising. From a user perspective, the product can be given out for free, which for social media is a must, unless we want to start seeing classest messaging platforms excluding people in countries who can't even afford 1 dollar or make digital payments. If I was going to let ads bother me I'd be much more upset about someone owning my search engine, phone, email, personal documents, cloud storage, etc... who could cross references those sources to build an accurate picture of my identity, rather than someone just owning my social media accounts where I'm just about as fake as necessary to make my grandma think I'm still going to church.

> I believe it is generally accepted that the policies in the 70's led to the destruction (dismantling?) of the urban/poor family (yes, predominately African American).

These problems existed long before then. For example, a famous and controversial report from 1965:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Negro_Family:_The_Case_For...

The problems are largely due to systematic oppression of African-American people for generations, denying them access to adequate housing, education, income, credit, access to legal protections, and exposing them to risks of violence by the state and by white people.

>Strange how good it is at that price.

The margins on flagship phones are substantial; most Chinese brands are happy to make fairly slim profits on hardware, or none at all in the case of Xiaomi. Most of the cost of the components in a flagship represents the R&D and infrastructure costs incurred at the cutting edge. Mid-priced handsets from Chinese brands use slightly older components, which aren't drastically lower in performance but are drastically cheaper.

There's an odd sort of trickle-down effect - people who buy $800 flagships are effectively subsidising the price of $200 mid-range handsets.

>I'm a big BMW fan, and they keep promising that they'll be selling normal electric cars Real Soon Like Now

I feel ya. I'm a chapter officer in the BMW Car Club, but we just placed an order for a Model 3 for my wife on Saturday. The only thing even remotely on the horizon for BMW is the iX3, which will be produced in China (even though BMW produces all X3s in the US currently). It will only have 250 miles of range. And it launches in 2020.

I currently drive a 530e plugin hybrid. I tell anyone who will listen not to waste their time with it. It has 15-20 miles of real world EV-only range. I live in a small town and it typically isn't enough for me to drive across town and back if I have the AC on. If I wasn't so upside down on the lease (12 months in), I'd be ordering myself a Model 3.

My wife made me get rid of the 2015 M3 I had prior to the 530e. I greatly miss that vehicle, but now the joke is that she's going to be the one with an M3. Just a slightly different kind of M3.

My next vehicle is not likely to be a BMW. It is mostly likely to be either a Tesla or a Porsche Taycan. Maybe BMW will have something worth my time in 2023. And it's so sad as they were ahead of the curve with the i3. And then they did... nothing.
I'll believe it if I see it. I'd be really surprised if they have anything in the US before 2021 or 2022.
Google has no morals. Only marketing.
> At least in the US, the only two cars I can think of (besides the Model 3, which is hard to come by) that move the needle at all are the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Bolt, both of which look... not great.

Yeah, Nissan LEAF and Chevy Bolt might not look great but they are far more affordable. With heavy federal and state incentives (and sometime as much as $10k incentives from local utility companies), you are talking about half or even as little as a third of the Model 3 MSRP. [1][2]

Is 50% of annual income a typical price point for car purchases?
Or sell bit-by-bit. With 50% before and 50% after the good are "delivered". Thereby building some level of trust and allowing the buyer not to take too much risk at once.

Sedans are a bit easier to cool/warm due to less air volume. The trunk also feels more secure for storage of valuables than leaving them exposed in a glass hatchback’s rear. Style and price also play into it I think but even cheap hatchbacks like the Ford Fiesta don’t sell that well in the US.

In general people looking for a practical car in the US are often buying a crossover, SUV, or pickup truck.
Well, yeah.

Some people have a low self intertia. It takes very little external preasure to change their perception of them selves. They can’t just “fix” that. Many don’t even know they could “fix” it.

It’s like a parent telling a kid they suck at somthing. It has a lasting effect on the persons perception of them selves.

Besides Google, I find Wikipedia is often helpful when finding acronym definitions as well. In this particular case, probably adding "Lisp" to your Google search would have helped, but if you didn't know it was limited to that domain, it's understandable that you didn't include it.
I guess I just don't get the original comment. Even if some prc supporters oppose the US military, what on earth does that have to do with the (equally silly but for different reasons) "where are all the people who were against maven?" question if not to paint the majority of maven opponents as prc shills?

I wonder how many of those are Model S. I hope that Model S is not suffering any problems so that Model 3 and Model X can go forward. I am only person in my circle of friends interested in Model S as opposed to the other two models.

Anecdotally, I lost count of the number of Model 3's I see on a daily basis in Bay Area.

I doubt it, Signal is terrible. Extremely sterile user experience, almost the complete opposite of something like LINE. They need to make it more fun.
Buying a car that's more than, say, $30,000 is such a laughably poor decision. Cars depreciate rapidly unlike real estate where you actually maintain some equity. If you're in your 20s and looking to pump your new RSU wealth into something, almost anything is a better choice than an expensive car.

By a combination of 4 different, complicated things that most technical users know little about and non-technical users know nothing about? And problems still remain? That doesn't bode well.

According to the National Institute of Health, Many drugs that are currently available are “one size fits all,” but they don't work the same way for everyone. It can be difficult to predict who will benefit from a medication, who will not respond at all, and who will experience negative side effects (called adverse drug reactions). Adverse drug reactions are a
significant cause of hospitalizations and deaths in the United States. With the knowledge gained from the Human Genome Project, researchers are learning how inherited differences in genes affect the body’s response to medications. These genetic differences will be used to predict whether a medication will be effective for a particular person and to help prevent adverse drug reactions.
Of course, but these are historical artefacts (the crown jewels are kept in Stockholm) and their cultural value is way higher than the monetary value, and part of this value is that they are well preserved and have a traceable history.

So if the stolen objects are damaged it is just sad. Like someone snapping a finger off an old statue, or ripping pages off an old and culturally valuable book.
Sedans are aerodynamic. Hatchbacks can fit more luggage.

A hatchback is the responsible choice for for a family car, and therefore boring by association.

Buying stock is investing in economic terms if it's a new issue. Buying bonds is investing, too (again if it's a new issue), and the bond market is twice as big as the stock market.
On the rational side (in addition to aesthetics, preference, etc.). There's also aesthetics and probably a general feel that a sedan is a more serious adult car.)

Some people prefer a separate locked trunk.

In addition, small hatchbacks often tend to be designed as 2-seaters with a vestigal back seat as a way to maximize the use of the hatchback for cargo. As you get bigger you get something more like an Outback wagon or (increasingly) a crossover of some sort.
BBOXX | Software Engineer | London | Onsite

BBOXX provides affordable energy to off grid customers in sub-Saharan Africa using an innovative IOT based solar kit combined with cashless digital payments. We are looking for experienced developers to maintain and break our back-office solution into focused micro services.

Apply: https://bboxx.workable.com/jobs/774071

About BBOXX

Lack of energy access in sub-Saharan Africa is a significant problem, with more than 600 million people currently without mains electricity supply. In Rwanda, 9.5 million people or 81% of the population cannot access mains electricity, which has a negative impact on quality of life and limits people's chances of achieving economic prosperity.

BBOXX is helping to address this issue by providing off-grid communities in developing countries with affordable energy solutions. BBOXX customers typically use a Pay-As-You-Go payment method, which enables very low income customers access to electricity at home that they would otherwise not be able to afford. To date BBOXX has installed more than 150,000 systems and provided around 750,000 people with access to energy.

It is anglocentric and valid. I live in a country of over 300 million people almost all of which speak English. Almost half the people on the internet at present speak English and virtually all the content I could possibly want to consume is available in a non unicode domain.

For me and 300 million users avoiding malicious attempts at spoofing is important. Setting show punycode to true enables me to view pages in international domains in case I need to do this while preventing me from being exploited.

Its at present the best option for hundreds of millions of people.

Its not shortsighted or racist to acknowledge different populations of users have different needs.

Edit: In case people can't be bothered to read it should be obvious that I am advocating for shipping with show punycode true for the English US version of firefox.
