I've been running a RT-AC68U for a while. Rock solid stable on Asuswrt-Merlin[1] (204 days uptime last I checked, and the last reboot was due to a power cut, and easily get 50MB/s to my file server over wireless). The Asuswrt interface is a little clunky, but once it's set up it works fine. I've recently changed to Tomato (needed VLAN tagging for wireless), which seems just as solid (55-60MB/s to file server), but I haven't tested WAN/NAT performance (moved to a pfSense box).

It looks like a CAN bus hub weights about a pound. That's negligible, considering I have about twice that weight in garbage sitting in my cup holders.

I mean "a lot" in computer terms is like 4 lbs of equipment but since the brake pads on a truck weigh in at more than that I assume its not weight related.
Slower and less range but cheaper has to be where most of the market is.
Airtable's API. Every API document is specific to you, playing around with GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE requests is really straightforward to understand, even for someone that isn't familiar with how these requests normally work.

The sample json responses are also based on your data too, and the docs showcase what those look like

The Beginning of Infinity by David Deutsch. The sheer breadth of the ideas covered in this book is breathtaking, and there are some truly mind-bending ideas explored in this book. If you're looking for a good general science book I highly recommend this one.

Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom. Few thinkers have thought about this issue as deeply as Bostrom, and it was fascinating to hear his thoughts on AI.

Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. Pretty traumatic read but essential if you really want to understand a dark and overlooked chapter of American history
Disclaimer. The following comment was re-written after Greg replied:

Responding to Greg’s points, if you buy out the battery lease on the long range car, it’s $34,000 dollars. The Tesla Model 3 you can buy today starts at $54,000 dollars. I didn’t know about NEDC vs EPA, so I was off about the range. Looking here it seems like a rough average for the range is 284km. https://pushevs.com/2018/07/29/range-efficiency-test-of-10-e...

Maybe it’s worth it for most people to pay $20,000 for ~200km more range, but certainly not in Europe. I’m also consistently met with points that 99% of trips are below 70mi. Plus as I said earlier, you get actual instruments and not one massive touchscreen, and quality control from a company not struggling to make cars at any cost. Then, if something breaks you don’t have to wait months for the part, and if you order a car now, you get it, you don’t go on an indeterminate wait list while they hold your money.
MOOCs aren't the competition for colleges: higher education largely sells credentials, not skills.

The risk is a mix of a decline in credentialism (eg, no longer wanting a college degree for babysitting or firefighting jobs) and a rise in an independent credentialing bodies (like what actuaries have).
The guy sitting right next to me has been increasingly angry about not being able to get a new headlight for his Model S, at a price well over $2000, for over a year. I don't think the lack of a dealer service network is a big plus for Tesla. It's just another aspect of their "disruption" circus.
I am fascinated that so many people do this. I always thought I had discovered a little cheat code to sleep. I try to solve impossible technical problems (eg designing a perpetual motion machine, walk on water, space propulsion system to put humanity in Alpha Centauri.) I figure that if I don't fall asleep, I may just make some major breakthrough so it's worth it!

The other approach I take is to listen to a podcast that has an even emotional flow (99% invisible is a great one).

The common thread in all these approaches is that they help me stop thinking about the real issues in my life. It's easy to run a groove in your mind thinking about some very real problem you're dealing with and that makes it hard to fall asleep.
I always disable winbox on installation.

/ip service disable winbox

Why would anyone want to use that? My theory is that it has something to do with how in many cases the MT sshd has to be told to figure out the terminal:

$ ssh user+t@192.168.88.1

...and this information is really hard to find. If the terminal settings aren't right and you can't fix them, ssh is unusable and you're stuck with either winbox or webfig. Fortunately, if the ssh session is wrapped in a mosh session then mosh will handle MT's terminal settings.
I would highly recommend getting a copy of the book Will It Fly by Pat Flynn. His method of building a market map will help to validate the idea.
This begs the question: how do you know this is true?
This is a bummer for people who already suffer long commutes. All the more reason we need Hyperloop and VTOL transit for everyone.

The Selfish Gene has been the most influential book on my life. Especially when Dawkins makes the point about pre-darwininan philosophy needing rethinking. His point being that natural selection/evolution is such a profound notion that it should be embedded into the underpinnings of philosophy itself.
Does anyone know of any open-source arXiv like frameworks that can be self-hosted?
What if the secondary counter overflows? And should all software now check two counters when they want to know the actual time?

Just use a 64 bit integer, at least for this purpose (since this apparently needs only 10ms precision): that is twice as large as a normal integer, so basically the same as using two counters, except you don't need extra logic in your code.
Major props to Dave for realizing that his previous position (that adding generics had nothing to do the syntax) was mistaken, and for admitting so publicly.

Why Nordic countries might not be as happy as you think
The article makes an attempt to answer the question in the title (cheap computers forced Eastern European programmers to be really efficient) but I am reminded of Paul Graham's "Beating the Averages" essay [1]:

> It must have seemed to our competitors that we had some kind of secret weapon-- that we were decoding their Enigma traffic or something. In fact we did have a secret weapon, but it was simpler than they realized. No one was leaking news of their features to us. We were just able to develop software faster than anyone thought possible.

PG and Robert Morris could do that because they had a "secret weapon" (LISP). The Skype developers had one too [2]:

> Delphi was chosen because our first senior UI developer was very skilled at Delphi (besides dozen other languages-environments) and we saw D as most productive, fastest, efficient way to build our app given our team/lead developer skills and also getting very good UX on MSWin platform.

Start with a project in vanilla JavaScript (try to write your code in an idiomatic JavaScript style). Keep building on it until it gets difficult to manage, then go add TypeScript to it.

If you're not a JavaScript developer then that exercise will help you understand what a typical JavaScript project look like and where TypeScript adds value. I think that, as a Java dev, if you just start by writing TypeScript you're liable to write code that looks a lot like Java. Doing it this way helps you see TypeScript as "JavaScript with Types" instead of "Java in the browser"
That graph does deserve some explanation, but perhaps it is sales by year rather than production? Tesla is currently running off orders they booked years ago, so production rate is running well ahead of sales rate.
> Bankruptcy isn't a bad idea for universities.

It's important to note that the way university finances / endowments are structured, as well as the demands of alumni make it so that bankruptcy isn't really that simple in higher ed. [0]

> They're not supposed to be for-profit corporations

I suspect that you don't totally grasp the non-profit vs for-profit distinction. The essential difference between a for-profit and a non-profit is simply that non-profits re-invest their profits into the organization rather than distributing those profits to shareholders. The original intent of this structure was to facilitate philanthropic endeavors (which have pretty much always been self-serving in some subtle way), but just because a non-profit corporation isn't associated with some obvious social benefit doesn't make it any less of a non-profit if it doesn't have shareholders.

It's not always obvious, but Rolex and Ikea are both structured as non-profits (with some for-profit subsidiaries iirc).

But when you use a tool like webpack it's even simpler - you just save your file and it recompiles & reloads.

You can also run 'tsc -w' (watch mode) and it will automatically recompile as soon as files change. And since doing so maintains a local cache of the compiler's state in memory it's extremely fast.

The tiny amount of time I spend waiting for compiles is several orders of magnitude less than when I had to deal with the lack of static typing, particularly when refactoring code.
Most journals still publish a list of titles in the open, so you can 'follow' influential journals, and read the relevant articles on the arxiv.

Why do manufacturers feel like they must always have dealers? Why don't they ditch the dealers and sell directly?
> The heaviest page, the marketing page, today weighs 110 KB with a cold cache, and 4.6 KB warm. (more comparisons between cold and warm loads)

I set HTTP cache-control immutable on my blog's image/JS/CSS URLs this weekend. Cache-Control: immutable tells the browser that this URL will never change, so don't check to see if it has. It should cut down on the warm loads more. If it does change, the timestamp in the URL path will change, so browsers will check the new URL.

https://bitsup.blogspot.com/2016/05/cache-control-immutable....

I suggest caching the main HTML, too. It would get the total warm load down to less than 1 KB.
There ya go then. Like I said; you're eschewing leveraging -any- managed service cloud providers give you, and instead just use bare VMs, and relying on cobbling together open source stuff, that you have to manage yourself, to build a solution. That's fine for those who have that kind of time, but some of us want to build things and push as many things onto the cloud provider as possible, so we don't have to deal with them.

I like having out of the box authentication with Cognito, out of the box DBs with RDS and Dynamo, out of the box object storage with S3, Serverless as an option with the API Gateway and Lambda...and I'll worry about vendor lockin when Amazon ups the price of an AWS service.
> Why don't they ditch the dealers and sell directly?

This is illegal in many states.
Promotion shouldn't be compared to castling/en-passant here.

A game without castling or en passant would be similar enough in spirit that we could call it a "chess variant". Removing promotion, on the other hand, would result in a wildly different game.

I actually suspect it'd be impossible to win against any non-beginners, making it more similar to tic-tac-toe than to chess.
I'm not a cyclist, but I'm a huge fan of having these on bikes. They've become more popular in my area and because of that you notice the bicycles earlier so you have a much smaller chance of accidentally hitting them because you don't see them. After I started seeing these, I've become quite baffled why more cyclists don't use them.

Also I wish that road vehicles had radios so drivers and riders could communicate intention like we do when flying. All you have for communication in a car is turn signals, high beams, and a horn, and many drivers take severe umbrage if you use them because they willfully or accidentally misunderstand what you're trying to say.
> I’ve always thought Tesla’s deepest moat was its battery production.

I wonder. Panasonic's got a truly massive amount invested in the Nevada "gigafactory" and I imagine they could sell batteries to Mercedes if they wanted to.
Bomber Command by Max Hastings. This book explained the change in Allies attitudes around bombing during WWII from "only barbarians bomb civillians" to the mass fire bombing of heavily populated cities. It was also eye-opening to read about the massive death rate in bomber command. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bomber-Command-Pan-Military-Classic...

The Art of Electronics, and especially the student manual that accompanies it. I read these a long time ago, and at the time it was a pretty good introductionto electronics, especially if you bought some cheap second hand test equipment and had a few breadboards and components to do the lab work. I'm not sure if it's aged well. There are a bunch of people on HN who still do electronic work who could recommend better newer books.
Don't seawalls have a bad track record? I.e. the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster and New Orleans flooding in 2005 happened despite seawalls intended to prevent such incidents in both cases...
This is such an overstatement. It's just a regular superposition of A then B and B the A. Causality in a strict physical sense of course holds.
And to expand upon pjc50's comment, the mobile experience still pushes the app, even though I'm logged in and always dismiss it.

(I know full well why they want people to the install the app, but I still find it unfortunate that they a) don't remember that I dismiss it/have an option to never ask me and b) despite the redesign and having a relatively good mobile experience (assuming you didn't first hit an `amp.` link) still push the app.
All I can say is read the book and decide for yourself. You seem interested in these kind of questions about life and energy in the universe and personally the book blew my mind. Btw, he does talk about suicide terrorists in the book and how it relates to his thesis.
I think this hubris is what is going to kill them (unless they , hopefully, wake-up). They couldn't admit that maybe other people made cars pretty well already and that they'd make that process even better over time.

I think they imagined themselves too much like Apple and it's attempts at automating it's production of the Mac. However, they forgot that by this point Apple/SJ had already figured out a lot of how to do assembly of computers quickly and automating a good process is much easier than figuring out a process that'll be automated.

Prior to this automation everything was done semi-manually for Model S and Model X, with huge delays, so automating whatever they had was not the next logical step. It was short sighted of them to go to automation first and it's frankly causing unneeded delays to delivering the Model 3s and volatility in the market.

"Dozens" seems to minimize the true count. The true count killed in this incident is 87 elephants. Additionally, five white rhinos have been poached in three months as-well.
That just sounds so boring and scary. I am 30 and the thought of being with the same person for the rest of my life sounds scary. To be honest I would most likely cheat in that situation.
The problem is that dealer networks are protected by state franchise laws. The manufacturer can't readily cut the dealer out of the loop and go into direct competition.
You can justify Apple's valuation through cash flow. You can't do it with Amazon. However it has always traded at a high valuation. Lets suppose it becomes the size of walmart which close ~500 bil in revenue. On the retail end their margins aren't really any better. So that is ~300 billion dollar business. That would mean AWS + prime video/music + amazon ads are worth 700 billions?

The videos and blog are free. The paid service is for “coaching”. There are thousands of people in a Facebook group who discuss the free material on videos and blog. Based on the Facebook discussions, almost no one pays for the coaching, and even if you want to pay, you need an invite. The author seems to have a separate business unrelated to eye health. If he is trying to make money from the blog, he is doing a terrible job by giving away so much for free and making the paid service so hard to buy.

All of that is irrelevant to the point that the scientific knowledge is public, cited and requires no payment. If you are someone motivated to improve your vision, you get to decide whether you will believe what you can see with your own eyes. You can also find a vision therapist via covd.org, which can easily cost a few thousand dollars in the US.
64 bits is certainly the solution I would go for as well. Arbitrary precision numbers are going to involve heap allocation which is something I would normally like to avoid entirely in a system like this.

> Once you type the column names, it can guess the table name easily.

If the query is simple enough that a natural join would work and you aren't doing FROM clause aliasing (which can be useful to make reusable queries self-documenting), sure.

For more complex queries and obviously any time table or column aliasing are used, that becomes somewhere between less likely and logically impossible.

I wonder what the costs are of the plan in the article and how it compares to digging more tunnels for subway (down) or adding some kind of elevated rail (up).
Which ones did you own? I've owned both the 1st and 2nd gen Chevy Volt. I have not needed any software updates or patches and my recalls were not serious. The only real maintenance I've done on both cars is for tires and an oil change every 2 years. This is nothing compared to a car with a combustible engine.

Yes the manufacturer pays for recalls, but since it's from one large customer; the dealers probably generate less revenue from the manufacturer vs a horde of consumers
