That is the one thing I give to VW: their first new electric car is going to be the NEO, which is basically a Golf done from scratch as an electric car. If they can get it into production numbers high enough for the promised prices, it could be the electric car for the masses.
How is that related to eastern europe where 99% of population is white?

Of course our politicians are white. And we're not afraid to be murdered by cops because cop violence is next to non existent in there.

It'd be interesting to hear how there're "no closed doors" and "every opportunity is available" to nobody since whole population is white. Yeah, right, everybody is white and rich and healthy and has plenty of opportunities :) Especially the older generation that grew up in soviet times and lived through 90s :)

Relations with western europe, both on political and personal level, is a wide topic as well...

I'm pretty sure average black american is more privileged than average eastern european. So how about black privilege? Or is it just people in different countries and in different socioeconomic status face different issues, regardless of color...

> no DRM locking me out of reparing my own car

That's going to be nearly impossible to avoid in the future. I do some software work for one automaker and every 2019+ model has a firewall on the data bus. It's not because they want to lock you out of repairing your car, it's because the pen testing and Defcon hacking has been accelerating over the past few years and they don't want headlines that say their cars can be hacked. That's bad for sales. They'll lose sales from guys like you too of course -- your concern is certainly valid, but more people are concerned about the security of their car than being able to repair it themselves.
By default, Amazon uses stateless firewall. It means that by default it's not tracking connections.
Plot double twist: VW won't actually produce more or cheaper EVs but Tesla goes under and stops making cars so technically this statement is still correct.

It has to do with separation of powers.

In a democracy a single individual couldn't make this decision, so if a president or prime minister decides to do such a drastic change so quickly other people (congress for example) will put a brake to it and force a reflexion/transition period.
Well tags are usually perceived as immutable but one can imagine adding an info to the tag with the "next version" coordinates.

For example, tag v1.0: and a text at the bottom of the message "Next-Version: v1.1".

Or if one can enumerate versions/tags you could add back pointers to new versions/tags. Example, tag v1.1 with message including "Replaces-Version: v1.0".

EC2 throttles everything by default and PPS is no exception.

What can you do when your system needs more bandwidth, cpu, ram or any other kind of resources?

You can either scale vertically... which is not bad at beginning of a project, but sooner or later you will hit the ultimate limit.

Or

You can scale horizontally. Which means that you have enough nodes or instances to bypass those limits and make sure your projects grow well over time.

Netflix runs on EC2 and they probably generate billions of PPS from Amazon. For sure it's several millions PPS a d they seem to not hit the limits mentionned in the article.

How Machine Learning-Based Codecs Can Cool Down the World
I mean, this is close to being right, but it's wrong in every one of the details.

Crassus didn't own the fire department. Crassus owned a bunch of slaves who he had trained to put out fires.

Crassus didn't charge for extinguishing fires. If your house was on fire, Crassus took his team and negotiated to buy your house. If you sold it to him, he'd put out the fire. There was no flow of money from you to Crassus under any circumstances. (But he could get a low price, because the value of your house was constantly dropping while it burned.)

In imperial times, private firefighting groups were illegal since they were viewed as a potential source of rebellion. (Using your own slaves to put out fires on your own property was of course fully legal.) It's in my mind that Crassus benefited from similar laws, but he was active during the Republic. Maybe someone else knows more about the precise timings.

Smalltalk is the product of a very well funded research lab - Xerox PARC. It was not so much a successful product.

It's less interesting about think what Apple did with it - because they had other, more conventional, goals in the end of the day.

I think it's more interesting to think what happened at Xerox - why didn't they get it out to millions of people as the software a computer boots into or as the primary development environment. Or even as a system design philosophy?

Xerox sold expensive systems like a few Smalltalk machines, but much more they sold office systems on the same hardware NOT implemented in Smalltalk. IIRC they might have sold larger laser printers with Smalltalk-based control software - can't remember.

Xerox gave Smalltalk 80 to a few companies - like Apple and others. Apple ported it to their machines - this is also the origin of Squeak (a later open source Smalltalk). But it never really caught on. Even though Apple gave developers access to it.

Now the philosophy of Smalltalk was already in the Apple ][. It booted into a BASIC prompt. But later computers were more universal and current incarnations are only seen as appliances. Nobody needs to program to use an iOS device.

On a Lisp Machine one can force any application into a REPL (called listener) at any time. The keyboard even has a key for that. Live programmability is the main purpose of such a computer. Source is only a keystroke/mouse click away.

We don't have that anymore and there must be a reason for it. Probably it would also be a security nightmare in current networked surroundings...
Elon Musk: “Do it.”
Not sure. They did not really deliver on the Model 3 initial price, since most models are sold with the more expensive options. And if I remember correctly the price paid by the consumer depends on government subsidies as well to promote EVs.

I think you'll find that what VW cares most about is selling cars, not selling ICE cars. If someone proves the market for electric cars viable (thanks Tesla!), VW will not have trouble convincing themselves to make some.

In fact, the Audi e-tron is coming out soon and it is based on one of the most popular VW group compact crossovers, which is a much hotter market segment than sedans.

I know a lot of Tesla owners and they don't rely on superchargers when they travel. They just drive one of their other cars, or fly. The superchargers are not as big of an advantage as they seem to be, especially in urban areas where they are overcrowded. Futhermore, they are not free for owners of the Model 3, and usage is free only under certain limits for owners of other Tesla models: https://www.tesla.com/support/supercharging

Is it though? Hosted k8s clusters make deploying a single app just as simple as heroku or elasticbeanstalk, but you still have the flexibility to deploy more. For a small team it's just as easy to setup a managed k8s cluster as it is any other PaaS - you go though a wizard on GKE or some other provider. And if you apps are simple then you don't need to use the complicated features of k8s itself. 1 deployment and 1 LoadBalanced service is simple enough for most Ruby, Python, C#, Java monolith apps to be off to the races.

I'm not trying to argue that it's a silver bullet but there's a bit of circle jerk over k8s complexity when it's not that hard.

I agree with your other points but not with the charger network one.

What do you mean by multi-decade infrastructure investment? It hasn't taken Tesla multiple decades to spin theirs up. If you mean it's a multi-decade commitment, well sure, but it's very clear at this point that VW (and others) are going to make that commitment.

Also, it seems rather likely that actually there will be a much better commodity charger network, running on an open standard, set up. Seems unthinkable that it wouldn't be the case, actually, probably even legally enforced by regulation if necessary - though it will probably just make economic sense for all manufacturers to agree to this and evolve naturally.
Asphalt: A design language system by GO-JEK
This is very inspirational but not sure if this is done in the best way. The core value of Mendeleev's approach is to find gaps and predict things that should exist but we haven't found yet. However for this to happen, one must isolate the "atoms" that can't be further broken down and identify the pattern in these atoms. The periodic table created in Figure 4 of this paper doesn't exactly sounds like isolation of "atoms" of data structures.
I suspect rust isn't referenced because these things play out on the scale of years, and rust is only 1 year in, so it'd probably be premature to judge. Sure, it's a good source of ideas, but it's too soon to really have enough data to judge the results. These other languages have over a decade behind each of them.
> VW produces 10 million regular ICE cars a year.

Yes, VW knows how to build cars, and manage all the aspects of the process, both technical and political, with plants spread through multiple countries continents.

And VW knows how to do that at scale.

> It will take time to shift an entire entrenched organizational culture to focus on EVs...

That assertion makes no sense, specially because VW does not need to switch the focus of anything. It's another power plant with a particular set of requirements, and VW is already handling those for decades and at much larger scale.

And production-wise, VW is orders of magnitude more capable and experienced in handling entirely different production processes.

Let's put things into perspective: Tesla is currently redlining its production process, including resorting to tents to perform ad-hoc extensions to the company's plant, just to reach 1% of VW's current production capacity, and currently VW is actually scrambling to keep entire factories with a residual production line for non-technical or economical reasons.

I recommend removing evaluative words from your vocabulary when discussing someone’s code or work.

“You’re always late” is evaluative. Causes an argument.

“You arrived at 10:30 am, and we agreed to meet at 10.” is descriptive — it lists observable facts.

Take a similar approach to code.

“This is sloppy” will only bring up defenses.

“I’m reading this and notice that the one or two letter variables cause me to have to re-read the method every time to figure out what each does. Maybe we can use more descriptive variable names, like accounts_payable instead of ap?”

There is such a thing as over stimulation. I'm rather sensitive to stimulation and become uncomfortable quite quickly around bright lights, strong smells, loud films, large grouos if people, ect. The flush of dopamine causes too much stimulation and we sensitive souls become too aroused, our thoughts become too loud and overlap each other and we become confused, dissoriented and function poorly. It's quite uncomfortable.

> I think you'll find that what VW cares most about is selling cars, not selling ICE cars. If someone proves the market for electric cars viable (thanks Tesla!), VW will not have trouble convincing themselves to make some.

I would also add that even VW's unions backed VW's transition to EV, and actually insisted that VW "invested heavily" in EVs.

And that actually happened way back in 2016

https://www.forbes.com/sites/bertelschmitt/2016/11/18/volksw...

So, claiming that VW will be unable to perform that transition when at this stage the company has been actively shifting its focus for years... It shows a complete lack of understanding of how VW operates and what VW's plans have been for years.
Will VW be willing to sacrifice solid profits from its ICE cars for likely lower initial profits for electric cars, similar to how Apple cannibalized its iPod line for the iPhone? I don’t know enough about German management culture but I have not heard it to be particularly dynamic and flexible.
When EV gets popular enough won't all petrol station install chargers too? When this happens the super charger network will not be a large advantage. The only issue I see is if each company creates it's own "super/fast" charging system and DRMs it for "security" reasons.

Interesting, even the German newspapers still use Peking.

> A Golf with electric range as much as a Tesla, with supercharging like charging capabilities will be the best...

VW's e-golf is advertised as having a 140 mile range. It's noticeably lower than Tesla's advertised range of 200 mile but as it's a city car designed for the european market I'm not sure it's relevant. I mean, in some european countries that's more than enough to drive through the entire nation.
You‘d think they could also sell cars without fraudulent software then, wouldn’t you? The question is whether they‘re prepared to lose money doing it or are just making more dishonest claims as usual.
