Oh that's why I get all of the downvotes, finally I understand it.

But you haven't really kept up with Apple and ARM for the past 4 weeks have you? Performance of the A12 is up something like 15% up - which is still impressive if you compare it to what Intel does on a yearly basis - but a lot less than it used to be for Apple SoC's.

In the mean while the latest Qualcomm SoC's (845 is like 35% faster than 835) are performing almost as well as the A11, while the performance gap used to be more than two years.

If Qualcomm manages to get another 35% increase next year their SoC will be faster at least until the A13.

So:
- Qualcomm is catching up
- While single core and multicore did not improve as much as it used to YoY for Apple

I agree with you, I felt the same when reading the article. It feels that Python's design is deeply at fault here, it is actively harming people's perception of anonymous functions, which is the opposite of what a supposedly educational multi-paradigm-capable language should be doing.

To give an example based on the article, I find it cumbersome to use itemgetter. I could use the library function:

import operator
sort(values, key=operator.itemgetter(2))

but it seems decidedly trivial and common to use a lambda:

sort(values, key=lambda x: x[2])
The Volt was also not GM’s first EV. Both the Roadster and GM’s EV 1 were niche products. You can call the Leaf a golf cart, but it’s sold more vehicles than the Model S. Yes the Model S has more performance, but it’s also a vastly more expensive car.

As to other manufacturers, they were “building up electric manufacturing capability” before Tesla. Toyota was selling thr first RAV 4 EV before Tesla was even founded. Tesla didn’t have the first EV. It may have the best EV now, but that hardly says anything—it’s much easier to make a $50-100,000 EV than on at a mainstream price point. The remaining question is who is on track to create products in the form factors people care about (not sports sedans) at prices they can afford? At this rate, that’s not Tesla either.

>And even if I were totally paranoid, what can I do about the Internet of shit? Am I supposed to strictly segment everything?

Frankly yes, or at least it should be in the back of your mind when you inevitably need to upgrade some gear down the road anyway and thus the marginal cost is lower. People on HN talking about Ubiquiti probably sounds like a broken record at this point and there are certainly other providers and solutions, but you should recognize that solid centralized management and VLAN functionality and the like now has fairly good SoHo options at SoHo pricing too. You don't need to run right out and buy stuff, particularly since 802.11ax looks like it'll be a much more significant general upgrade then anything since the original AC with its focus on more efficient utilization rather then theoreticals.

But when you do, you should be getting something that lets you trivially soft-segment your network at will. At the least shoving IOT, any VoIP, and any cameras onto their own VLANs separate from your main systems is a good idea (not just for security but it can help performance too for VoIP, if you ever use it). At this point particularly with IOT I'd consider that a minimum required feature for any network gear to even be on the list for an upgrade.

>At what point does prudence and caution drift into paranoia?

At the point where hacks aren't trivially automatable for drive by and the difficulty of anything more is higher then the value of getting your stuff. When it comes to IOT though that point is regrettably a long long LONG way off, the security practices in that space are so utterly abysmal even before the typical practice of no updates ever comes in, assuming it's not actively backdoored. And of course this isn't just about you, IOT botnets are a threat to the whole net.

There certainly can be histrionics around this stuff that aren't justified, but I don't think basic segmentation, firewalling, pi-hole, and (if you must have your IOT on the public net though really you should consider using a VPN instead please) strict IP whitelist access or at least rate limits are unreasonable at all. Certainly not for the HN crowd. We can do our parts at least for our own benefit, and maybe[0] even help keep a few coworkers/family/friends/neighbors from contributing their uplinks to DDOSing our stuff too.

0: I genuinely mean "maybe" there, I know very well the payless thankless time sink it can be to take on any sort of IT work after hours. Depends on what family and friends are like.

My college used to do similar. If you did not register your MAC address, you would be DHCP assigned into a walled-garden IP block.

We found we could run an IP scanner on the authorized subnet (from a computer with a whitelisted MAC), and find the unused IPs, and just set those statically for 'visitors'.

No need to register any more MAC addresses.

John Searle, in his "The Construction of Social Reality," does a memorable job dismissing arguments against objective, unbiased non-ideological reality by reminding the reader that we take the common human viewpoint for granted constantly. In fact, there is vastly more that we agree on that what we don't, e.g. "There is snow and ice at the top of Mt. Everest," or "this dollar is worth a cola"

Sure, there are groups that impugn these most basic shared truths — e.g. flat-earthers and crpyto-financiers — but for most of us, the foundational nodes in our cognitive perceptual framework are boring, ie common.
Tesla is a product company, they do little, if any, marketing.

Find me a Tesla owner that doesn't love their car.

Tesla is an engineering led product company first, both for the good of the environment and for making products that people love.

Not many could have built what Elon Musk built, if any others today at the time and survive the Great Recession or get people excited about the product.

Tesla has that excitement that nostalgic leaders like Disney, Ford, Jobs, 'World's Fair' type of innovative excitement had in the past.

He definitely has a lot of say when it comes to the technical details of rocket design. Mueller told the story about how on Merlin engine he insisted on utilizing fluid Dynamics to control the fuel instead of using valves, when everyone else disagreed, and the idea worked really well. And you know that there is no way Musk can fire Mueller and keep SpaceX so he doesn't need to brown nose Musk.
When you look at all the purchases you make over a week, I assert you are only interested in paying the overhead of open, reversible transactions for very, very few of them.

I think we'd have a healthier view of credit cards if we indeed only used them when we actually wanted their features beyond the sheer convenience.

I use bitcoin online where possible precisely because I know I am not going to make a chargeback down the road and I don't want to give someone pull access to my bank account. Only few banking services offer virtual/"OTT" card numbers.

If chargebacks were so critical for every purchase, then everyone would be scared of ever using cash. But that's not why people don't use cash.

- arteries constrictions, nearly all your arteries (even micro capillaries) have tiny valve-rings, since fear can induce vasoconstriction to ensure high blood supply, I think high anxiety can force your system in that state for prolonged amount of time which will lead to blood flow disruption (tiny clots, mild hypoxia) and derail organs on the way.

This changed the way people coded, stored data, and thought about data in general. In my mind, the implications, not necessarily the details, were some of the most profound in the history of computational papers.

For the last few years, I've been working with the premise that there is an analogous information-minimization theory for all project information, not just data storage. So far I'm optimistic that this is true --- it's just not the same minimal format for different teams working on the same problem. It's people-dependent, not data-dependent. (Obligatory link: https://leanpub.com/info-ops ) If true, and it looks like it is, it means that teams can have "analysis compilers" that work inside the build pipeline alongside all the other tools. This leads to "continuous information deployment"
Pension funds also have money flowing in. They invest more money in down markets than good ones because they need to ‘catch up’ in bad markets and can scale back in good ones. The risk is the company failing to keep up in a bad year.

TLDR: I was issued couriered C&Ds to a postal and email address only used on Namecheap.

The attacking party had no court order, subpoena, judgement, etc.

Ted from namecheap asked me to email him. He confirmed legal had received the complaints, but said they hadn't replied.

He hasn't replied to my email since (3 days ago) to offer any explanation how the attacking lawyers got details on in NC.

YMMV, but it is a real issue, which cost me just under 2k in legal fees to unwind. I am definitely moving away from NC, sadly, after 10 years.

i didn't choose python 2.7. it is what i have installed on my work computer because the three projects i have worked on at work that used python were all using python 2.7, and the projects were led by "python people". in a couple cases, it was me who got them to upgrade from 2.6 to at least 2.7, and i have tried communicating to people to use python3 if they insist on python. i wouldn't choose python for a new project unless i had to again help someone else's project.

I don't see how this 'man' in the middle could actually intercept passwords, except for http, but who runs auth over http anyway.

Are you aware that the RAV 4 EV used Tesla batteries?

Regarding the Roadster being "niche", it still looked like a normal car at least, unlike the EV 1, and any other electric car at the time. Furthermore, they had a roadmap to more affordable cars that still fit the moniker "normal". Other car companies were just running their EV projects as experiments, or as a way to appease California legislators to meet quotas, or simply retrofitting a non electric frame with batteries in a way that left much to be desired.

No one was trying to make a non-toy full electric car until Tesla.
You're being downvoted, but its true - many CC and Debit card services have built in stop gaps that restrict the maximum transaction amounts, usually around $2,000. (You can temporarily remove these with a quick phone call)

It also doesn't have tail-recursion or macros. There are many who also regard that lack as a deep design flaw.

There never was a goal in Python development to support all programming paradigms.

How do you distinguish between "design flaw" and "different design goal than what you want"?

An important difference in my mind is between designing a web application vs designing a web document.

In the document case, it is possible to mostly keep the document semantic and apply styling via CSS. It matches the content/style separation well.

For web applications, I really like tailwind-like approaches, for multiple reasons:

* changing the style globally is probably hard anyway without adapting the HTML as well (as in the app case, often lots of other things depend on margins etc for example and you have a lot less uniformity/more special cases than in the document case)

* because there is less uniformity, the reuse aspect of the traditional content/presentation split is greatly reduced anyway

* web apps often use component based frameworks already, so you still get reusable components

> In your comment you state, without any source or reasoning behind your claims, that:

> - Finite supply of currency is good

> - Bitcoin is "best money"

> - Everything else is bad money

My arguments aren't based on feels about what one might think as "good" or "bad", but just based on the undeniable fact that people are self interested. If it's a choice between holding my assets in a currency where they won't be devalued, and holding them in another where they will lose 1% or 2% annually, which am I going to chose?

The people who care about the rich getting richer are really complaining that they aren't getting richer by the same ratio. They obviously won't if they think that the second option was a better choice.

The rich already get richer. If they have money, they will invest it into other assets which offer them various levels of return, some more risky than others. People without money are traditionally excluded from these kinds of investment, and thus, their only for saving for the future is to put money into a bank account and let it have less purchasing power than the labour they put in to earn it in the first place.

Bitcoin changes that completely. Anyone, even low-income earners, can put small amounts into Bitcoin and it will retain value in the longer term. They can completely shift their mental mode from high time preference into low time preference and begin investing in their own future. The idea that everyone needs to spend spend spend is not grounded in reality. It's necessary for governments to continue their bad policy making which only enriches the elite who print the money. High time preference is the source of inefficiencies, cutting corners and high debt.

People should save rather than spend. People should spend more wisely in ways that are an investment into their own, and their descendants future, rather than borrowing from their children's labour through debt.

Interesting perspective. It is conditioned, though, on the existence of a robust set of safety nets provided by society, and on those safety nets existing long enough that people have grown up with them[0].

This assumes Bitcoin survives longer than BCash.

It’s not the store of value that will keep a chain alive but rather a stream of transactions sufficient to pay enough miners to survive repeated attacks. All it takes to kill a chain is more resources with incentives to kill it than incentives to mine it.

PS: Hashing power also assumes the owners of that hashing power control their network. A tiny group of hackers with limited capital could take over a coins network.
3 cents per user per month. Is that right?

Is it hard to make 3 cents a month from a user?
Decent rules of thumb, though even with root I'd base it more on whether the device really needs general access or not. Speaking of which, a corollary I use is: if an IOT device requires internet access it's automatically bad and I won't even consider it. If they want to offer some built-in but fully optional "access away from home" that wants to use their cloud that's fine, I can just block that anyway and use VPN. If it wants to access one specific address for updates (though you don't have to) or as an optional passive information feed I can see that. But anything IOT that depends on remote resources for its core functionality is right out.

That eliminates a surprising number of IOT devices, but given the flood of crap I think that's no bad thing. These days being able to have something be LAN only with zero service tie-ins seems a decent low pass filter to narrow down choices before diving any deeper.

I remember reading in Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future something that Elon had been formally admitted to the PhD program at Stanford, but dropped out after three days. Vance contacted the Registrar's Office (or the graduate department itself?, I cannot remember) and received the confirmation that he was admitted.
I'm just baffled by this narrative about a shadowy cabal of nefarious short sellers. Is the claim that there is no reason to have legitimate concerns about Tesla?

Honestly it just reeks of people being in over their heads regarding the markets. It's about as compelling an argument as those ridiculous George Soros conspiracies
