The cells are probably the hardest part of the system to manufacture. Damn near anyone can make a BMU (and they do), though there is a fair amount of effort needed to design a decent and affordable pack. Very few entities can make a decent lithium cell.

Same here. The only difference I noticed was startup speed when restoring 200+ tabs; that was indeed far faster in Quantum, but I never noticed any other speed improvements. And it was something I only encountered once every couple of weeks anyway.
I'm not quite so quick to dismiss this out of hand, despite my own (negative) experiences with AMP.

Google is certainly capable of making mistakes, but I find it hard to believe they would invest so much into AMP without strong metrics to indicate that AMP pages load faster overall. And on a theoretical level, the explanations of why AMP should be faster also make sense.
No, but why would that be a concern? If you're going to use Emacs as your environment, it's best to learn how to install additional packages, as you'll get a lot more functionality that way. If you're using Sublime or VSCode, I'm sure you'll one day install plugins for it as well.
Finally! I've been waiting for this for a year. I love that it learned from scratch without human bias and how it plays in a much more captivating style than alpha-beta engines.

Will you be answering questions?
Pretty much this. Market trends change how you invest, but they certainly don't prevent you from profiting either way. The last couple months have been particularly lucrative if you're shorting the market.
No, making good cells is actually the hard part. The charging electronics is simple and easy. You can buy these ICs for cents from the usual suspects. Or does TESLA have some special, hard to circumvent, patent on the charging algo?
C# is very well thought out language. It development team is super experienced in language design. Its head designer Anders Hejlsberg has made other languages. And they borrow stuff from other languages like lambda etc.
Interest rates rising will lower prices a bit (in the end, a buyer taking out a loan will likely be paying the same, because what ever drops in house prices goes to the bank in interest). I dropped my home's price (undesirable neighborhood) pretty aggressively in the last 6 months before hiring a property manager to rent it out. I would recommend just keeping your eye out for deals. Right now is off peak season (in the US) so you might find someone desperate and get a bargain.

Actually, this is a class D transmitter. Minus the usual output filter to eliminate the higher harmonics. Look at that spectrum chart. The second and third harmonics are huge!

It's quite possible to build something that will turn a square wave into a clean sine wave, and you need that. You can also generate waveforms digitally that have weaker higher harmonics, which means the output filter is simpler.
There's something called a class E amplifier, which is like a class D but with an unusual analog tank circuit on the output end to clean things up.[1]

A device like this with no output filter is an annoyance, not a communications device.

His main justification: "Just about everyone I talk to in the capital markets, including erstwhile bulls, acknowledges that things are slowing down." And "everyone knows it is coming." And "everyone knows that inverted yield curves are the most reliable recession indicators."

He talks about home builders "getting crushed," which means they're trading at levels last seen in 2017. The large tech stock haircuts he refers to means most are at levels they traded at earlier this year.

I'm not saying he's wrong about a recession coming, but if you're looking for some real substance to justify that stance, you won't find it in this article. Just a guy copying Trump's tactic of saying "everyone knows" instead of offering evidence.
If you're investing for the long term, why not just find a spot you're comfortable with on the way down and invest money in an index fund while the market is down? A recession is the perfect time to invest, isn't it?

How would you suggest I invest in Uber today?

The most obvious reason to invest in the Lyft IPO instead of the Uber IPO is that there is no Uber IPO.

If you're asking whether Lyft and Uber can achieve simultaneous financial success, the answer is yes.
It was more than a System V licensee, but it only ran on the 68K line of Macs, so it really didn't have a chance and was dead before Copeland.
Given the projected IPOs next year (Lyft, Uber, AirBnB) I think this is a little pre-mature. I think the bull market has another year in it. That being said I'm shifting some of my assets out of the market.
Lots of factors in play, you'd need to bet correctly that the recession will actually affect prices that way in your area.

Also, the yield curves just inverted within the last week, and the average time-to-recession from that point is 12 months. So you may want to wait longer than a year.

Or... just buy something and be done with it, as long as it fits your budget and your income is stable, it's just housing and in the long run it'll probably work out fine anyway. Timing the housing market isn't any easier than timing the stock market.
Actually Eclipse's git UI is very practical. I use it whenever I'm developing somehting in Eclipse, however I still command line as much for other reasons.

OTOH, I despise heavily modified bash/zsh/whatever profiles which makes the environment non-portable. Extreme eye-candy in the console makes stuff harder for devs/admins who logs in to thousands of servers.
They don't need to increase prices in established markets because they are already profitable in those. So whenever they run out of cities deemed viable to expand into (and they will because the number of cities in the world is obviously finite), then they will no longer need to subsidize growth costs in new cities via profits from established cities.

The main difference between Uber and Lyft is that Uber is already in a lot more cities than Lyft, so if Lyft wants out of the subsidizing game, they either have to settle for being in less cities or somehow significantly outdo Uber in terms of growth cost efficiency when penetrating new cities where Uber/others already operate.
According to the article, prior to Bourdain's publication of Kitchen Confidential when he was in his early 40's, his outside-the-US travel experience consisted solely of a few trips to France as a child and one trip as an adult to Japan:

> He just talked about what traveling the world would be like for him. He had gone to France as a kid, he had gone to Japan once, and that was it.

The fact that Bourdain not only achieved massive professional success after toiling in obscurity well into his 40s, but more specifically became the most famous traveler in the world after barely having traveled in 2+ decades of adult life is pretty damn impressive. Definitely gives weight to the argument that "it's never too late"!
No.

Can you select a physical area that you are going to visit and download that you to your phone for offline use? Yes.

Perhaps you can explain to me: what does selecting an area from a list afford you that highlighting an area visually does not? I've even used this, on a couple of occasions, to download the roadmaps for entire, albeit tiny, countries.
I will probably be heavily downvoted but here goes nothing. I have not used React Native yet, but I followed and was heavily invested in the "write once deploy anywhere" trend between 2009 - 2014.

From phonegap (before it became cordova), to Adobe Air with it's bad performance and "native extensions", to Appcelerator Titanium that put a nodejs server in your phone and even had Windows Phone 7 support, to cordova, to Haxe, to sencha and others.
Appcelerator Titanium was the only ones that did real native for some cases like scrollviews, Haxe used custom C++ apis, the rest used webviews, and adobe air was basically flash emulated that ran like shit.

Write once deploy anywhere, meant write once, deploy somewhat anywhere, spend double the time to make that promise true. Kinda like having to do IE6 support in the past.
I was deep in that madness up until mid-2014. At that point I decided to buy a macbook and give native development a try (obj-c for ios and java for android -- When I say native I mean real native and not React Native).

What a magical experience! Things that are tough to do in web even today, like real never-ending scroll lists, are a breeze in native with their reusable cells. Things like standard headers and modals, are already built in and a few lines away. And I actually prefer the touch event handlers on both ios and android to the web's "mouse/touch/PointerEvents" ones.

I do not understand why web developers have such a knee jerk reaction to native development. ObjectiveC/Swift and Java are actually easy to write. Tooling (especially for ios) is fantastic. In my experience, it is much faster to write UI interfaces in Objective C and Swift (I never use xcode's UI builder) than html+JS. But the real joy is being able to harness the real power of your phone. I run some C++ algorithms on both ios and android (I guess C/C++ is the original cross platform) that on android are faster than the built-in Java apis themselves! And of course, true multithreading!

But here we are, non-stop chasing the "no! I want javascript in my frontend, and in my servers, and javascript in my ios apps and android too!" dream.

Perhaps React Native accomplishes that. I hope it really does and solves that decade-long promise of "write once deploy anywhere". I guess all what I 'm trying to say is, don't be afraid of native people! Web devs are willing to go through insane hoops and loops instead of just... giving the real thing a go. So weird.

This is where I am right now. On the one hand, waiting allows me to save up more, and put more thought into where exactly I'm buying. On the other hand, waiting for a recession to buy is timing the market which is notoriously difficult to do.

If your area is already a buyers market, then you should just go ahead, and buy some place you like.
What is your support for that claim? Can you quote other sources? I can quote my sources: Here are documented two independent approaches in estimating baryonic density: one is calculations based on the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis D/H ratio and another one is the values measured by the satellites observing the SMB. Note the two decades of similar values using both approaches:

https://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/education/graphic_history/baryo...

"There is general good agreement between the recent CMB and D/H+BBN determinations shown in the figure."

I don't see the "double" anywhere there. And the values could be traced to all the sources mentioned there.

For me it feels like RN is still not ready for an enjoyable development experience (it feels more around alpha/beta version), which maybe it is because the version is 0.57 or somewhere around that. The main problems I have with RN are:

* Cryptic error messages. Out of maybe hundreds of errors/crashes I had while developing a medium sized app, only a few of them provided useful info about what/where happened.

* Lot's of outdated/abandonware/low-quality libs in the ecosystem. You really have to be careful when picking the dependencies.

* Fragile and complex builds. You'll have to use dependencies to make anything more than a basic app (unless you want to DIY), so get ready for some "fun" when upgrading the project because not all of the dependencies will be upgraded at the same time, might also often have the APK/IPA or development builds fail because of dependencies not properly installing or not playing nicely with one another.

* Lots of little stuff. For example, I had the ios simulator logs not work out of the box when launching with "react-native log-ios", so had to use a third-party solution for that. Metro bundler sometimes just breaks. I still have a problem of the app randomly closing down after some time on iOS, which I did not look deeply into yet but will have to solve before release. Constant issues with nesting scroll views on android. Hard to predict cross-platform inconsistencies in layout behaviour in some places. Can't name everything right now but they played on the nerves throughout the development.

I hope it gets better some day, but until then I'll probably look for alternatives for my next project as I wasn't very happy with RN.
They will be using Chromium (blink+V8) but intend to continue the open source development of chakra, but I suppose edgehtml is dead.

Keep in mind that you'll see a corresponding increase in rents as more buyers in a given area hold off on buying. The demand ends up just shifting. That's been the effect in Boulder, CO.

It all comes down to this:
If you are looking at housing as an investment, you are buying into a decades long market aberration driven by super low interest rates and government policies.

Otherwise, if you look at it in terms of the specific supply and demand curve in your geographic area, you can better steer your decision making. My area (northwest of Denver, CO near Boulder) has local government policies which have seriously constrained housing supply. That made me choose to buy despite a less favorable macroeconomic landscape to home ownership.
During periods of fx doubt, even more so. This includes recessions and right after them
Agreed. Time in the market beats time out of the market.
Anyone who ever used MacOS X v10.0 (or the server preview of it) around the year 2000/2001, and had previously used a NeXT from the command line, could immediately tell that it was the NeXT OS with a MacOS-resembling veneer of GUI on top of it.
What would be the best way to do this? Is there an index fund or something that is based on shorts? Sorry for the lack of knowledge.
It looks like JSON doesn't specifically define how numeric numbers should be stored. It just recommends expecting precision up to the double precision limits.

Still interesting to know it's not just a jq quirk.
Tend to agree. All the OS attempts that tried to seriously innovate the desktop failed. Add WinFS and OpenDoc to that list.

I believe Unix passwords were salted and hashed in the 70's and those weren't typically for customer-facing accounts nor obviously for public internet-facing systems.

It boggles the mind that the 90s internet boom had to reinvent all the security wheels with such a great history to draw from -- then now that we have bothered to reinvent these wheels yet still decade or two back people are still delinquent in their use.
That has a very bad impact on the economy. When lots of people (it's a systemic problem, it's going to be LOTS of people) who are a part of this society start to become infirm, die out prematurely, leave the workforce, undergo radical drops in productivity, or merely become financially crippled from dealing with normal healthcare costs--that will send ripples through the economy. Our style of healthcare is a ludicrous expense for us all. It's a lot bigger than just the sticker price.

It's not just their own problem. They won't simply die and get out of the way of the more fortunate.

hi, author of the article checking in.

Thanks for commenting in the open from Mozilla's perspective, even if its just one voice, it's much appreciated.

I agree that Firefox will remain an attraction to the group of people caring about openness, standards, and their privacy. My deepest concern is on how small that group is going to be. Will it settle at the current ~10%, or will it be as low as 5%, which I consider very dangerous grounds to be in.

As for Google's abuse of market power, I strongly believe it has already happened, in plain view. There's no doubt in my mind that dominance in one market has been used to capture another market. We don't have to wait for that "mistake", it has already happened.

These abuses are already under investigation, but I'm afraid it won't change the outcome. They'll pay some fine in a few years, but none of the browsers will be uninstalled.

It won't matter much, but added an update to the top of the article suggesting people to install Firefox.
On the other hand, if you use a password manager to keep track of all those different passwords, just make them random 128bit hex values, you won't need to memorize them anyway.
It's more of a "not yet implemented" thing than a non-solvable problem.

However a thing that needs to be considered is that building good IDE support for Rust is a very hard task, since it's a pretty complicated language (e.g. with all the type interference, traits, automatic dereferencing and conversions going on).

Another fact is that the rustc compiler hasn't been built for supporting these kinds of use-cases right from the start, as e.g. the typescript and kotlin compilers have in my understanding. That means the IDE tooling can't directly query the compiler, but must duplicate some of the parsing and interference logic.
Thanks! I think there will be a similar challenge here, but we have community moderators (as of launch) and pretty strict rules around self-promotion. Example: some vendors (tool makers) wanted to write Decisions about their own product, but we explained why that's not helpful to developers and they understood. In many ways HN is really good at this, so the hope is that we can let the community moderate itself which seems like less of a thing on sites like Quora.
There is significantly more extractable lithium than needed at any rational forseen rate of ramp-up. The impact of mining has to be borne by all real goods which depend on mines, not just this one.

You are adopting implied reductionism around the "cost" side without having done the work (in my opinion) to justify that this concern outweighs the upside benefits of ceasing to use coal.

PS a lot of the minable lithium which isn't in Chile, is in Australia. So, we have low-miles lithium!

Copland was a bundle of fail. It would crash doing nothing at all and couldn't run anything of substance. But, typical of Apple's death spiral at the time, it took Ellen Hancock saying a strong, unequivocal "kill it" to get Amelio to do so.
