The issue of course is that about 80% of websites don't need to be 'apps' or SPAs or what not. If you're building a news site for instance, it's basically a blog at the end of the day, not something akin to Gmail or Discord or what not.

Same goes with a lot of sites that seem to be built as web apps despite not needing to be apps in any shape or form.
Tesla wanted other companies to use their charging system which the other car companies replied hell no. I think what will happen is that there will be legislation for this exact problem of competing real estate which in turn means that whoever has the biggest network by then will have the upper hand. So Tesla will probably get the standard they want but they will also have to pay for a big part of the network too.

I'm already laughing at the story before the adventure begins, where your dad was trying to meet up with someone via car, on the GW bridge. It's amazing how we take for granted the ease by which we can now coordinate meetups. The days of, "I'll meet you at the GW Bridge at noon" certainly lead to many missed connections, or in your dad's case, pulling a 180 across 4 lanes of traffic. I'm really going to enjoy this book.
What are some intervals that you've seen recommended in Europe?

I seem to recall Porsche going to 30k mile intervals, but I believe that they had a shorter filter interval. Of course, they were using a synthetic. My understanding is that this was a move to make their cars more environmentally friendly, and I'm not sure whether engineering approved, but the manufacturer only really cares about longevity for the duration of most leases or initial ownership periods (obviously a reputation for longevity helps sales overall, but if they're going to cut corners they're going to focus on initial ownership satisfaction).

IMO there's no point in discussing oil change intervals unless you have an oil analysis (e.g Blackstone Labs) to prove the condition of your oil.
I think it's good. There's not much space in the microcode patch RAM, so hiding a malicious update like you would a root kit would be extremely difficult.
I use Facebook and I don't think that's going to change any time soon, but I also used to develop against the Facebook API. I say "used to" because there is nothing of value to get from the Facebook API anymore. Their data is now entirely locked into Facebook and cannot be easily moved.

My site pulled local event data into an event calendar, since Facebook's discovery of truly local events is shitty at best and useless most of the time. These are all public events at businesses open to the public and the businesses want more people to come. But now Facebook considers public events posted by public-welcoming businesses to be too sensitive of information to share, and that API disappeared overnight in April, with no advance warning and no ability to get it back. It's gone. Completely gone.

Coincidentally, they now have their own app called Facebook Local that shows events near you. I'm sure that has nothing to do with them shutting down that API.

Break up Facebook.
Paid software updates you say? I have a 2014 Opel Ampera and noticed the maps on the nav system are pretty out of date. So on a whim, I googled how to update them. Apparently you have to get a DVD coded to only work in your particular vehicle, and it cost over 200 pounds!

Given how clumsy the nav is to use in the first place - you have to use an abcdef touchscreen keyboard for input! - I decided it wasn't for me.
> Servicing our market makers is top priority

I fixed it for you.
I'm in a similar spot at you. I have no CS degree but I was fairly active in creating game projects with C++ many years ago. Although I used SDL instead of Allegro :)

I taught myself C++ when I was still in college for a digital media degree. As time went on, I was learning how to use various IDEs and build processes, and became active for a while on GameDev.net. I even made homebrew that natively runs on PSP hardware, using an unofficial community-built toolchain. But there was no Github to post my code to, and I didn't consider showing my game projects to the companies I interviewed at as a beginner, because I was not applying to game companies.

I eventually picked up web development jobs after graduation, but still doing some C++ hobby work up until around 2011. My most complex C++ project was a graphics framework built on the DirectX 9 API.

I would consider a C or C++ programming role for the right company, but you're correct in that it's hard to get your foot into with your kind of credentials. That is, unless you know someone who works at a company that is using it. A lot of it is gatekeeping, honestly, but there is a real need to understand how to write high-performance code with it.

Unfortunately most of my C++ dev work was lost in a hard drive crash. But I don't know if project age is a factor too. As in, would most companies even put stock in my ability to program in a language that I last used 7 years ago?
A green light is one possibility, as are people pulling out into the street without looking. See this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17910799

I never run red lights or stop signs, and don't appreciate being associated with bad cyclists any more than you would probably appreciate being associated with bad drivers.
My hope is that the competition will force the force Tesla to make it easier for 3rd party mechanics to make repairs.

Mercedes is more experienced in building cars that last for a long time. The C-Class is known for being able to drive up to 1,000,000km.

Further it is still fundamentally an engineering issue to have cars last longer, the Germans have a very long history at being the best engineers. So they too will benefit from having less parts.
4 million miles of traveling, wow. Did that cause any systemic back-pain issues for him sitting on long-haul flights non-stop for a solid decade?
You keep moving the goalposts. This series of comments started with someone pointing out that Mercedes don't have capacity to build a lot of batteries. Then you said 'Same with Tesla'. But thats not true.

I am of two minds about immigration enforcement.

One on hand, I don’t have a problem with enforcing immigration laws.

On the other hand, I hate the demonization of “other” and immigration enforcement has turned into being more openly racially motivated than it ever has been before and this isn’t a Democrat vs Republican thing. None of the other Republican administrations have been like this one.

I hope the Romney/Bush wing of the party can take back over. I can deal with “big business” Republicans even if I don’t agree with them on a lot of issues. I would love to have two sensible parties fighting over ideas or even more cynically which special interest they favor.

The average age of cars on the road in the US is just under 12 years.

The issue is that German cars in particular have a reputation for being quite expensive to maintain outside of warranty. In general for most cars it's not a big deal.
The fact that Gobekli Tepe potentially overturns our understanding of the invention of agriculture, or at the very least completely rewrites the timeline is very interesting. Potentially even more interesting though, what's the deal with all the handbags?:

Reminds me of the pseudoscience of "applied kinesiology". Basically the trick is they do flexibility tests before and after "treatment", and patients magically get better at them the second time around.
I remember having read something similar a while ago about a cave in France which was used a sort of natural paint supply over a time of around 10,000 years.

Apart from how far back those things span, this also illustrates how enormously the rate of change in culture and living conditions has accellerated in our time.

Think about it: If you could time-travel back to somewhere within those 40,000 years, you might encounter a group of hunter-gatherers.

Their remote ancestors, as far back for them as ancient egypt is for us, were: hunter-gatherers.

Their descendants in the distant future, as far away from them as Star Treck is for us, will be: hunter-gatherers.

Compare this with our time life style and technology is radically different than it was 200 years ago and at least technological innovation seems to be accellerating even more.
Frameworks don't make your code smart. Writing a webapp that aggressively preloads without causing problems is hard, and while frameworks give you some tools to make that easier, they don't do the hard work for you.
How would you quantify it? I measure it in part by pursuing a track record that is meaningful to me not aligned on income or titles alone, but the innovation/change I've been able to be part of that is remarkable and memorable for it's time.

Sometimes I meet people who have a lot of experience/expertise (not a title) they have no business having at a particular age or experience level. They have really been able to extract a lot from their opportunities. Sometimes I get approached in this manner for senior, or leadership assistance while I'm young on the basis of my experience and track record.

Quantifiably speaking, experience, expertise seems to be listened to the more experienced I get. Also helpful is where it's relevant participating in startups or small businesses that scaled from from 0-5M, 0-10M, and now 0-60M/year.

A measure that I like is it by whether I can see opportunities early and recognize others who do the same and what I can learn from/with them.
Pods, services and replica sets are not complicated in and of themselves. The problem is that they don't reflect the mental model of a user at all. I just care about instances and load balancers.
Playing around with old ASIC designs
I think you have it pretty close. Also FPGA are good for low volume custom circuitry. ASICs are good for high volume custom circuitry. And things are a hybrid of the three these days. Something like a cell phone has a ASIC with standard features like an ARM core, cellular communications, WiFI, display controllers.
Comparing absolute insurance numbers without context of age, professional discounts, geography, etc. is pointless.

I paid $500/month as a 20 year old on a $5000 used Intrepid because I was in a high risk category in a major city. My uncle who lived on a farm in another state paid $500/year for both him + his wife on newer cars.

Point is, if he thinks it's fairly or underpriced for his particular situation, it probably is.
Dijkstra gave pretty concise justification for 0-indexing, so I wouldn't reduce it down to "authority" for why people use it. While I'm personally comfortable hopping back and forth between conventions, is there any deeper justification for using 1-indexing? "Vast majority of people" seems like the same meme you're rejecting for 0-base.

This is generous of Kapwing.

It's worth noting that, outside the United States and a very small number of other countries, parental leave is usually publicly funded through taxes and administered through social security. Companies can then augment these social security payments.

For example, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Finland, France, Hungary, Italy, Ireland, Mexico, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and Turkey all fund parental leave through social security. Others as well.

> It is not "unethical", for example, among the huge majority of the population, to cooperate with law enforcement in matters of immigration --- but to listen to advocates, cloud hosting for these organizations is beyond the pale.

It is unethical to co-operate with law enforcement, if you believe law enforcement is done in an unethical manner.

Anything else is an appeal to authority. Do this because the government wants you to.
I was at a body shop a few months ago because I got rear-ended. They listed their prices on the wall, and I thought it was interesting that they had separate rates for working on Tesla and non-Teslas. Depending on the work, the prices were anywhere from 20% more to triple.
The interior design looks very cybertrashy and pseudofuturistic. Why is the automotive industry so diconnected from general design trends and minimalism?
I seriously, seriously, seriously doubt that if you examined all those countries with the same level of examination you've applied to the US (even if that is not all that much) that you'd find they're all just hunky dory. In fact I all but guarantee you'd find over half the policies aggressively racist, let alone all the other things you might think to fault immigration policies for.

Note this is not an "everybody else does it so it's OK" argument, this is my not being particularly sympathetic to a lamppost argument. If the area under the lamppost is dirty, you don't have much logical basis to assume that everywhere else is clean, and then critique the area under the lamppost for its unique dirtiness.
Personally I'd never take a job that my future colleagues try to talk me out of... Does this approach have any success?

Surprised to hear this, I had opposite experience, given they are from the same parent company as Dodge/Chrysler. It wasn’t the most reliable car I ever owned (a Fiat 500), but servicing/maintenance was a a total non issue for me in the US, anywhere that did Chrysler/Dodge seemed to handle it fine. Many of the parts are even marked as Chrysler/Dodge under the hood.

“Will you fax that to me?”
I have 4 kids, so I'm consistently unimpressed with all these 5 seat "SUV's". So far the only full electric SUV with 7 seats I can buy in Europe comes from Tesla.

It's annoying, because the X is still so expensive, and the Dutch gov't is increasing bijtelling next year which will add a huge extra cost for business leasing.
We leased a Chevy Bolt back in February. $2000 down and $325/month including lease & tire protection plan (3-year lease, 15,000 miles per year). $41/month flat rate for electricity for the garage charger. 240+ mile range and great pickup and driveability (not quite the acceleration of Tesla's Ludicrous Mode, though).

But yeah, it was pretty obvious that the dealer wasn't thrilled about carrying and selling this model. They don't push them or advertise them at all -- I'm guessing because they hardly go in for repairs or maintenance.
Google Posts ‘Testimony’ After Senate Panel Rejects Its Witness
Ah, I'd missed there actually were Opel Ampera E sold; I'd had the understanding the sale stopped any deliveries ever happening.
It absolutely could be, though. Or you could use half an ethernet port. The idea of a data diode is fine, it's the [lack of] implementation that's at fault.
Yeah, makes no difference.

I imagine, the software needs to remember some state variables with time stamps, to ramp power up at a certain rate or to implement PID control of the power level. Crucially, it never needs an absolute time stamp, it only needs to know how old the data is.

The most simple(!) approach is to use an unsigned integer as timer/counter and let it overflow all the time. Age is computed by unsigned subtraction, ignoring wraparound. With a 16 bit timer and 10ms resolution, ages up to almost 11 minutes can be represented. Why would a turbo-generator even need to remember what it did 11 minutes ago?

In other words, the mistake is probably not the narrow counter, it's the signed arithmetic and the subsequent failure when it computes a negative age. Someone else said "they probably stuck a crappy old 8-bit micro in there." That would surprise me---people programming 8-bit micros tend to know how to use unsigned arithmetic where it makes sense.
As far as Tesla is concerned I think you should look for the Model Y when that's announced. That's probably going to be much closer to your price range.
Yes sure that's one way. Another way is a landlord granting a title to a monestary alotting 200 existing villages around to supply for the monestary.
Mercedes already has dealers for their non-EVs. They can't just dip their toe in the water without starting fight with their dealers.
Or you could buy a Lexus. They seem to be good for a million plus miles.
Too much information that should not have been available, yes. It's hard to argue that reading public event information published on public pages that even people who do not have Facebook accounts can see would be considered "too much information".

Their response was more "oh you don't want your friends list to be public information? how about we shut down everything?"
The main difference there being subject to persistent and total authority vs a high degree of freedom requiring personal initiative.

I'm still not really clear on why it matters. If anything, grooved rotor/pad combos have more friction surface :)

I just swapped pads last weekend for a track day, my rotors are grooved and should be replaced next time I have to replace my street pads, but once the pads are bedded in, they still grip amazingly well.
If the area under my lamp-post is dirty, that's what I should care about. I don't care that there's some dirty lamp-post on the other side of the world. I don't live there. I don't have any power, or influence over that lamp-post.

How to think like a hacker
I have been using evernote since it practically launched. I only use Evernote these days because there is no competitor I like a lot. Not because it's good.

The app crashes, it takes forever to open, and the company has not improved anything in a long time.

Now they even changed the logo making it harder for my mind to locate the app.

Total disaster at Evernote.

I can't believe Microsoft hasn't bought it yet.
Too much information about people, yes.

Business tend to want the kind of information your comment's parent was bemoaning being siloed up broadly available. People tend not to want their personal details treated that way.

FB locking that info away isn't about protecting those businesses; it's about protecting their own position in the market.

EDIT: Explain to me, then, how Facebook "protecting" info businesses want widely disseminated is in anyone but Facebook's interest. If I have a coffee shop, and we're having an event, I don't just want FB users knowing about it, do I?

Treating this as a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" is disingenuously specious.
Evidently GM is shipping a lot of Bolt EVs to South Korea, contributing to low inventories elsewhere (including here in the colonies). It took almost a year for me to get my Bolt after registering my interest with local Chevy dealers.
