Business-wise it's clearly a big advantage for Tesla. A superior supercharging network can very well be the thing that makes someone buy Tesla over a competing electric car.

That being said, Tesla has said from the beginning that they are open to sharing the supercharging network with other car makers as long as they share the cost of building it.

No car company took them up on that offer but it's hardly Tesla's fault.

I hope they can figure out how to make it work over at Facebook. I would happily pay for a service that clearly stated how they use my personal information, and curates news and provides a platform to interact with friends on/offline, as well as with a greater community. But it doesn’t do any of that well. & that’s why I deleted my account.

My wife works for Essilor here in the states at one of their distribution centers as an industrial engineer and the scope of how they operate is mindblowing sometimes considering how much space they have.

In a building the size of a Costco, they have over a million SKUs of lenses ans contacts.

I don’t really have much to add except for I agree the prices are a ripoff. Luckily, I get a new pair for free once a year since my wife works there, which is nice because I’m pretty hard on my glasses. We also have access to an on-site optometrist and her pay is decent for our location and her experience.

Not much has changed since the merger except some corporate types coming around doing inspections but from what I understand, Essilor and Luxottica were about the same size before the merger, and now the have the benefit of a larger supply and distribution chain for both companies.

I’m more surprised that the EU hasn’t broken them up, but maybe they will in the next year or two.

FWIW that's "xsv sample", and it handles headers by default (with an option for headers-less CSV):

Randomly samples CSV data uniformly using memory proportional to the size of
the sample.

When an index is present, this command will use random indexing if the sample
size is less than 10% of the total number of records. This allows for efficient
sampling such that the entire CSV file is not parsed.

This command is intended to provide a means to sample from a CSV data set that
is too big to fit into memory (for example, for use with commands like 'xsv
frequency' or 'xsv stats'). It will however visit every CSV record exactly
once, which is necessary to provide a uniform random sample. If you wish to
limit the number of records visited, use the 'xsv slice' command to pipe into
'xsv sample'.

Usage:
xsv sample [options] <sample-size> [<input>]
xsv sample --help

Common options:
-h, --help Display this message
-o, --output <file> Write output to <file> instead of stdout.
-n, --no-headers When set, the first row will be consider as part of
the population to sample from. (When not set, the
first row is the header row and will always appear
in the output.)
-d, --delimiter <arg> The field delimiter for reading CSV data.
Must be a single character. (default: ,)

Another voice for fasting from here too.

I do 16:8 intermittent fasting and my energy levels are a lot better. Basically I just eat my last meal around 19:00 and skip breakfast. Lunch around 11:00.

Serotonergic signalling is a really important regulator of sleep architecture, and this is why psychiatrists are increasingly prescribing trazadone as a sleeping aid. It was previously used as an antidepressant, but lower doses and it is a remarkably effective sleeping pill. 5-htp has similar effects, and this is why its sold as a sleep-aid supplement.

In my experience, all of these drugs can bring on intense very visually pleasant trippy dreams, with the occasional intense violent nightmare. Aside from the mood and sleep architecture effects, I wish I knew more about the neuroscience separating the positive from negative experiences.
I still use it as a news feed: even with no sorted posts and all the weakness you pointed out, i found no other aggregator like FB. Notifications send no warning on my smartphone (i disabled them all), except the red dot inside the app: i click once in a while, just to "cleanse" it.

I believe they know that social media are subjected to fashion just like everything else: the best way to keep on riding the way is peraphs be the one who kill the old (fb) while nurturing the new (Instagram/whatsapp). In this manner, the numbers are always growing - and that's the only metric they care about.
It’s different in that you can render voxel objects in a 2D renderer in a limited fashion. Whether that’s useful depends a lot on your context and aesthetic goals. Sprite stacking isn’t a new term for it either. But I agree a sprite stack could just be an export option in a regular voxel editor.
> awk '{print $2,$4;}' is useful and easy to remember. $NF refers to the last field. FS is the variable to override the default field separator of white space. Here's an example of it's use. OFS is the output field separator.

Yeah also cut is just inconvenient, awk works much better when working with the usual tabulated data.

> Works on CSV files too with the right field separator.

You're probably better off using xsv though.

It should also be said that while many Chinese do have VPN they are often pretty bad (SLOW!) and often break. They are also only used by more sophisticated users or enthusiastic users. Most people are too lazy to bother, cost is a consideration or they are not technical enough.

The current brand of capitalism is not "free to fuck anybody", it's actually worse, it's "target the poor". Neoliberal economists specifically call for stealing from workers:

https://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/13/the-case-for-hi...

> even in the long run, it’s really, really hard to cut nominal wages. Yet when you have very low inflation, getting relative wages right would require that a significant number of workers take wage cuts. So having a somewhat higher inflation rate would lead to lower unemployment, not just temporarily, but on a sustained basis.

Shorter: we create an economic policy to cheat workers out of the take home value of their earnings to make management easier and post favorable employment metrics for political leaders.

That "growth at all costs" policy, which, by the way is not inherently a free market policy, exists to short shrift the labor class by means of a compounding treadmill that most will fall off.

This is my experience too. I think some of this also comes with movement tracking. More of a dopamine/neuropinephrine signaling axis.
In a way this is a direct consequence of sharing. Almost any shared resource will have contention, or stored state and this will affect use of the resource by (typically) other cores/threads. This will always end up telling you something, you just have to hope it's nothing useful.
I bought Land of Lisp by Conrad Barski but never really read it due to procrastination. I really wanna read Lisp one day. Also, I didn't see Land of Lisp mentioned here. What do experience lispers think about it?

So what happened here? There's an in-the-wild exploit that's bypassing sandboxing - so there must be at least two bugs, or the sandbox isn't tight enough (which, for Chrome, would surprise the hell out of me).
But I've already got code in my xmonad.hs that clamps firefox windows to common monitor sizes?

It's truly unfortunate that browsers just punted on security, dumping endless amounts of sensitive information into a purported sandbox. Why bother developing something with a secure mindset to begin with, when you can just band-aid on patches later?! It's the sendmail/ActiveX philosophy all over again, only now with network effects.
Exactly this. Death by a thousand paper cuts, is another.

Digestion issues didn't go away completely, but everything is noticeably better now.
My effexor comedown was rather severe, and also resulted in shivering episodes and an overnight ER visit. This was years ago.

I blame the doctor, who switched me immediately to Lexapro with zero tapering on either side. Effexor is something that really should be tapered very slowly.

If its making life awesome though, why get off of it? The stuff gave me lots of confidence and was the only thing that ever regulated my weight and energy levels.
A moderate distribution substation is probably more like 50 MVA.

A house with a 200A service at 240 V is about 50 kW. You might see a 250 kVA padmount transformer feeding half a dozen big houses but that is not the same thing as a substation.

I know most of those, but I've never used awk.

One command I didn't see mentioned that was surprising was cut[1], especially the -d flag. (Maybe it's less necessary if you know awk?)

It's really great for cleaning up the output of poorly structured, wordy scripts. It's also a quick and dirty way to generate csvs with the –output-delimiter flag.

My local utility seems to offer it, though they prefer that you install a transformer. They also offer 3-phase for residential usage. Yes, this is in the USA. From what I can tell, most likely you'd get 480 volts at 500 amps.

There is actually a home not far from me that gets 3-phase. It is hooked up to a commercial-style air conditioning unit (huge house) and has a separate power meter; the home has separate 2-phase service as well.
Seriously, remove the power given to developers to exploit JavaScript in every kind of exotic mode and you'll have zero bugs.

They really aren't though. It's just that that is the stance the big players have. And the reason they have that stance might be because it is the only stance that can motivate their existence.

You can still target content rather than users.

> It's always sequential.

It's monotonic, but not sequential. On one login you will be asked for positions 1,3,4,7,9, 10, on another you will be asked for letters 1,2,5,6,7,8. Merging such partial information isn't trivial if you don't know which positions you got.

Let's say you have 16-letter password. That's 4 missing letters during each login.

There's (16 over 4) = 1820 possible ways that the characters the keylogger see can be positioned in the real password.
Huawei made the Nexus 8P and has been in the news pretty regularly over the past few years. There has been a lot of recent media coverage because of this issue. You have been hearing more about them because there has been more newsworthy events, but they have been in the news for a while.

I think a lot of that has moved to WhatsApp - at least here in Germany people create and participate in groups for all kinds of social circles and activities:

From never ending, ongoing groups, like family, friends, clubs / sport teams or work to temporary and occasional groups dedicated to events like birthdays, travel with friends, festivals, etc.

The concept of groups is easy to grasp and it's much simpler than organizing Facebook in a similar way. It includes people who don't have a Facebook account (all they need is a phone number and even grandma can join in) and participating feels much less public than posting anything on Facebook.

Of course I imagine Facebook won't mind that transition and development all that much.
They are end to end encrypted. There's apparently a lot of meta data (like the people one communicates with, etc.) that can still be accessed by Facebook.

It also nudges users to enable cloud backups which in practice means that everyone has them enabled (...which in practice means that all your messages are unencrypted in the other person's cloud storage.)

Protocol wise, basic shared VPNs will stop most everything short of a semi-global passive adversary. The problem is running hostile code on your own machine, coupled with browser makers thinking it is a generally fantastic idea to allow that hostile code to access a whole slew of security-sensitive information.

Sure, VPN won't repudiate the region bullshit, and can even be outright blocked. But if adoption rose to the point websites didn't want to lose the traffic, those would diminish.

However, I do agree a non-immediate user-centric protocol is sorely needed though, especially to stop those global snooping adversaries.

Not sure where you live but in the UK it certainly does seem like -everyone- from all walks has WhatsApp and would rather talk there.

Obviously texts and phone calls are available, and I do not use WhatsApp because it’s Facebook; my comment was just a reflection on how pervasive Facebook is.
No. Because if there is too much power demand the overload results in some people getting no power. You dont often hear of rolling blackouts or brownouts in North America.

Everyone can use as much power as they have subscribed to whenever they want. Your panel is rated for a certain amount of power and protected by a breaker or fuse if too much is used. Same for the transformer your panel is connected to. Same for the distribution line your transformer is connected to. Same for the transformer it is connected to. And so on.

There is enough capacity in the system to meet the demand. If there wasn't the lights go out due to some overload.

When demand grows more capacity has to be added before the limit is reached. Capacity takes years to build. Utilities have planning departments that decide where they need to add capacity next and how much.
