It got a little more complicated than that. I can't speak too much about the specifics, but people were definitely defaming the country itself and overall going out of line in hopes to amplify their protest. It's one thing to say that the project doesn't align with your ethical standards. It's another to attack the country (and by proxy its citizens) for high level political decisions that the people are powerless over, then imply that the people are complacent with it.

> "in a 500+ race, there are big debates about whether to breathe every 2 or 3 strokes."

It seems to me that debate is less about lung capacity and more about breathing on one side or two (e.g. bilateral breathing.) For me it's always seemed obvious that bilateral swimming should be the desired ideal. Most of my peers favored one side or the other, because in the beginning they had a very slight preference and over time as they used that side only, that preference was reinforced to the point where it became downright awkward to breath on the "wrong" side. If you train against this from the beginning, it seems to me that your times will improve (if only because every three strokes is less breathing, which of course is faster, all else being equal) and you won't have to worry about any physiological asymmetries.
This take seems really dismissive of the technological lead Tesla has vs competitors, the difficulty of the engineering work, and seems to assume that Tesla will stay still while competitors move closer.

This kind of reminds of a weight training regimen.

3 weeks of clearly defined goals and progressive load, followed by a "deload" week where you're not sitting around doing nothing, but you're lifting lighter weights to let your body recover.

Makes sense to me, because whether you're lifting weights or working on software, stress is stress and probably follows the same patterns of progressive overload and recovery.

Where are you hearing about these short term problems? If it's in social media, anyone reading may want to examine your own media intake and potential biases inherent to any story about publicly traded companies. There are huge interests at stake on both sides of the bull/bear aisle for all these controversial tech companies. Tesla is not alone in receiving very high-level scrutiny, it's merely more of a lightning rod due to the sensational (and ultimately fatuous) behavior/personality of its CEO.

As a car company/hardware company, I'd also argue Tesla is simply in a much tighter, harder to succeed-in industry than the other tech companies, who get ridiculous revenue for doing unethical practices with user data for basically zero marginal cost.

Finally, keep in mind that Tesla is BEV, and there are many, many well-paid opponents of BEV in the USA and elsewhere. Tesla is purposefully disrupting the bottom lines of oil and ICE companies, that is not going to be met with fair coverage in all press outlets.
Yeah... Except that if you run at your maximum capacity every day, you will get injured fast.

In swimming, everyday training (actually twice daily) is extremely hard because the length to which you can go without injury is further. Same as for say, cycling.

This is true, yet it seems there is an economic recking. It just isn't this straightforward.

Tax money does pay for it, but taxes are created by people who get in that position by being popular with the people they're taxing. It's in their best interest to keep taxes as low as possible. This can create races to the bottom where we are, as you say, running at a deficit just to keep the lights on. The people running the budget have been kicking this can down the road (no pun intended) for a while.

Simply put, our taxes are paying for it, but they're underfunded for the level of planning and improvement needed. Congestion is a failure to scale.

Something to think about as Tax Day approaches...especially if you think your taxes are too high.

There is nothing wrong with having road infrastructure to move people and goods between urban centres.

There is however, a lot wrong with designing cities around the use of the most inefficient form of transportation, which increasingly looks like one person in a giant gas powered SUV or pickup truck going to work or the grocery store.

There is a reason that cities with functioning political systems are tearing down urban freeways and moving toward narrower, human centred street design. These are highly desirable places to live, and people are clamoring to move to these communities.

If you ever have the pleasure of riding on a properly funded and maintained rapid transit system (of which there are very few in the US), you will know that it is preferable to being stuck in traffic in a private vehicle.

$0.25/rd is a fair price for 9mm or 5.56mm. However, it is 25000 rounds per week. $6250/wk. Plus a bunch of other costs far exceeding the ammo costs. I don't think the 150k rounds round count is reasonable, unless a lot of that is fired from something other than individual weapons used by the servicemember.
I'm an advocate of breathing every 2 strokes. Watching phelps 200 free in beijing was the time I switched from 3 to 2, and i think many swimmers followed suit, even biedderman who still currently holds the world record.

Sun Yang however mixes it up in the 800-1500, he'll do 2 for the majority of the swim, but there are times where he'll put in 3.

I've been doing every 2/4 for so long that it feels awkward trying to breathe to my strong side. I feel that muscle memory is actually a key component in why swimmers who generally breathe every 2 are faster.

An authoritarian one-party government correctly views religious organizations (or corporations, or large unions) as a threat to its power that needs to be managed.

With regard to religion, they can try to cope with this by driving people out, "reeducating" people, or manipulating the leaders of the church (issuing threats or just appointing their own Catholic bishops, Buddhist Lamas, and so on). I believe you will find examples of these things happening in modern China.

Here's the cite:

https://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/04/05/media_player_weedsh...

I misremembered the technical details, but the end result is the same: user's lost the content they purchased.
Consider:

FROM nodejs
COPY /mycode /app
RUN npm install /app

Now suppose I change my app code. In a Dockerfile situation, the change to the `COPY` invalidates the `RUN npm install /app` layer, even if I didn't change anything that NPM would care about.

An NPM buildpack can signal that there's nothing to change, allowing the overall lifecycle to skip re-building that layer.

There's also the problem of efficient composition. Suppose I have this:

RUN wget https://example.com/popular-shell-script.sh && \
go get https://git.example.com/something-else@abc123 && \
./popular-shell-script.sh && \
rm ./popular-shell-script

And this:

RUN go get https://git.example.com/something-else@abc123

Both of the resulting images will contain the same `something-else` binary and in an ideal world of file-level manifests I could save on rebuilds and bandwidth consumption (NixOS has this, approximately).

But I don't get to do that, because the layers have different overall contents and different digests. Buildpacks don't get you all the way to a file-centric approach, but because they follow a repeatable, controlled pattern of selecting the contents and order of layers, they greatly improve layer reuse between many images.
I wonder how much such a blast costs. This may be a cool tourist attraction.
> If you're schedule-bound, estimation failure means you'll be incomplete.

Schedule-Bound development (or Deadline Driven Development) can actually work well with minimal estimation as long as you are truly building MVP (minimum viable product), you have to ruthlessly slash features and only build the core features that are going to deliver the most bang for the buck.

Not easily done.

This is the exact same situation: Your tax dollars paid for part of it, sure, but not close to enough to support what is needed. Therefore you either need to pay more to either increase capacity or reduce impact.

IV actually has an interesting methodology where inventors can license their patents out to IV and IV will licence those patents out to larger companies to make actual products.

That, for awhile at least, was their core business model. As part of that agreement, they have to fight to defend the patents of small inventors who have literally entrusted their life's work to Intellectual Ventures.

I went to a public presentation by IV awhile back where they talked about their reputation as a patent troll and how they've tried to back off on the lawsuits and do more and more to work with partners to get products to market.

IV also does a lot of original research in hard sciences. If you remember that mosquito laser thing, they've spent a lot of time trying to make an actual product out of that. Turns out making a death laser that only kills harmful species, and is safe around people is rather hard, and involves a lot of original engineering work, and then a ton of work going through the government regulatory process. (Rather strict rules about lasers and all that!)

One of the coolest things they talked about was putting that laser tech to use on farm lands to zap bugs that harm crops! How they described their bug species recognition tech was incredibly cool! Obviously it doesn't take care of all types of bugs, but it is the coolest way I've ever heard of to reduce pesticide usage, and to do so in a way that is hyper-targeted at only harmful insects!

Anyway, they make cool tech, and if anyone ever gets a chance to see them talk about what they do, I'd recommend it.

tl;dr Hacker News meetups have some cool speakers.

Co-founder of Unubo here. We created this platform because we're dissatisfied with the current landscape:

AWS is a headache.
DigitalOcean is great, but you’re on your own in managing it.
Heroku gets expensive, fast.

I've joked that a lot of the nerdy sports like League, Smash, speedcubing, etc. need some crazy Russian coaches. Someone who forces them to train like hell, complete like hell and win. This isn't exactly the same, but it's still cool seeing them adopt mainstream sports training techniques.

But for real, it's funny seeing competitors in these nascent sports not doing the basic min-max tricks that established sports take for granted. Stuff like consistent sleep, good diet, conditioning, etc. isn't just for show. It's about maximizing your mind. Fencers, for instance, have long known about the effect of meditation and physical endurance on their mental game.

Now we need the gamers to learn to scream like a proper athlete.

I'm not that familiar with Rust, but what is the rational against higher-kinded types? Is it a technical limitation that everyone agrees is a limitation, or is there some rationale why higher-kinded types in Rust are not useful?

This is probably not relevant, but as a professional Scala programmer, I find higher-kinded types absolutely indispensable. Without them, writing truly generic (and imo, beautiful) code is almost impossible. Programming with higher-kinded types does really feel like some "next level shit." higher-kinded types are to types as first-order functions are functions: the natural and logical extension that unlocks simplicity, genericity, and beauty.

> I don't see this delivery issue for Tesla dragging on beyond this quarter.

My perspective is that these issues will continue.

1. Tesla closed a severe number of their stores. All sales-staff thought they were going to be fired, but then Elon Musk reversed his decision. In effect: Tesla's sale staff has low morale due to boneheaded moves by Tesla leadership.

2. Tesla's future sales strategy is still a big question. Will Tesla push "online only"? If so, all of these salespeople should be looking for a new job, before the next round of layoffs. Tesla has done nothing to satisfy its sales staff. Rumor is that the commissions program was also severely cut during the whole process.

3. Tesla has had dramatic price cuts throughout Q1. We all knew they needed to do this as they lost the Tax Credit, but I think most people hoped that the price cuts would have worked. $2000 off of all vehicles in January, the "release" of the $35k Model 3 (except none have been delivered yet), etc. etc.

4. Tesla changed their sales policies to be far more forgiving to customers in Q1. Customers can return a vehicle as long as its under 1000 miles and before a week is up (allegedly anyway. I dunno how the process works). In any case, the price drops + very forgiving sales policies are trying to court more buyers. But... all of this resulted in 30% fewer sales in the Quarter (compared to last quarter). So Tesla was unable to counteract the drop in demand.

5. The $3750 US Tax Credit runs out in June, and is halved again to only $1375. Other cars, like Honda Clarity, still have the full $7500 tax credit, and are available at $33,000 (under the $35k Model 3, which isn't even being delivered yet). The competition is picking up, and the competition still has all of the tax credits available.
