Chinese (and to some extent Indian) groups of tourists tend to behave maladjusted compared to other tourists. You can observe it all around Europe too.

In the Netherlands a recent phenomenon is Chinese tourists wading through the famous tulip fields this time of year to get the perfect photographic memento. Tourists from other cultures mostly respect the societal boundaries that prevent you from just barging in and damaging a farmer's crop, but the Chinese tourist just doesn't see those boundaries (whether it is an explicit sign or just the common sense that these flower fields are not part of a theme park but an actual agricultural enterprise).

At any rate, to them everywhere they get herded to in touring buses is a theme park; historic city centres, tulip fields, authentic windmills, etc. They just don't see that people live there, or make a living, or that some old building may be a natural treasure, not a theme park replica you can safely climb on.

It might be a mindset thing. Chinese tourists seem to expect that people around them (tour guides, local staff) tell or show them explicitly what to do and where to go. Without guidance, they end up stepping into cordoned areas, passing no entry signs, and wandering onto private property.

The solution to the Chinese barging through your flowers seems to have been found in changing the communication strategy. Instead of signs forbidding entry (which get ignored, even when written in Chinese) they now put up banners asking visitors to respect the flowers (in Chinese) and not trample them. It seems to help a bit.

A few observations, before I derail

I do not want to dismiss the efforts of Audi or Jaguar but I think their initial focus was being good examples for their respective brands with regards to their packaging. Their interior quality of a different generation and caliber than Tesla. The EV part was an important concern but secondary. They can still rack up significant ZEV credits in California letting them off the hook of buying them from others.

Tesla needs to refresh the S and X to improve interior fit and finish but also concentrate on making them quieter, an issue I have with my 3. without the drone of a motor every sound stands out and EVs tend to ride on stiffer, noisier, tires.

As for difficulty, other than i3 and Tesla cars I do not believe any other EV was a clean sheet design. Even the Leaf appears based on traditional cars. the Bolt is simply a spark when a new motor cradle and battery back pushed under it. The Hyundai/Kia models are all adaptions. Not 100% sure about the iPace but Jaguar even contracted out assembly.

--

The manufacturing difficulty is probably secondary to the seismic shift crossing the auto industry and associated industries. EVs don't need the large established dealership base and their included maintenance facilities. Secondary market means little use for parts stores and their suppliers. Gas stations will be right out with most charging done at destination points. Manufacturing of the autos themselves will implode the number of employees and that will lead to union difficulty in some countries; where they sit on boards and can stymie the move to EVs and loss of production jobs.

The Kia Niro EV numbers you mention are not EPA which was 258. I mention this because your other numbers were EPA.

> This is basically theft where there is no risk for the thief.

Sure, my point is just that the difference isn't in legality or possibility for recourse, but in the probability of successful enforcement of the law. The problem isn't so much that the thief is in another country, even if he lives next door to you, it's impractically hard to track him down unless he makes a mistake.

> But also because crypto is totally unregulated -- and by the rules of the game, if you have the keys, you have the coins

Nothing could stop you from opening a business that would offer insurance in case of key theft. Most banks offer around $100k (depends on the country) in case they go bankrupt or robbed which is very little if you have life time savings in them that are way more than $100k. Big banks have an advantage though in that if they ever go bankrupt they tend to be bailed out by the government which is hard to replicate as a business (you still end up paying for it through inflation so you don't technically get your money back when your bank goes bankrupt as the total value of your money goes down).

I think you are taking a moral high ground by attacking the company's practices.

I think defending corporate legal rights is mostly not about morality which is why speaking about morals in this story is important.

Like in how the legal system it's not what's right or wrong or truth that's important but legal justice, so we need morality to play a part in making sure it doesn't get out of hand.
I believe they last longer if you don't fully charge. My thinkpad used to have a setting where you could stop the charge at 85 or 90%. For storage apparently its best to have them something like half charged and kept somewhere cold.

> A friend recently had their vehicle broken into. A thousand dollars worth of physical items were stolen. Half of it was recovered quickly by checking local pawn shops. Good luck doing anything like that with Ethereum and a foreign bandit.

That's true, at least for recognizable things. If the thief steals currency, e.g. a stack of dollar bills, you'll have about the same potential to get those bills (or others) back unless you locate the thief. The jurisdiction adds a layer of confusion, but that's not the relevant part imho. If I break into your mail account and illegally transfer your domains to my hoster, you'll have high chances to get them back, even if I'm in another country or continent, because there's a central authority that has the power to make it happen if you can provide sufficient proof. There's no such authority for ether (well ... they could fork, but realistically, they won't) or cash, and that's what makes it hard.
This is very much so. It is even used by the Chinese government as significant economic leverage over Taiwan. In times of political confrontation ( such as with the present DPP government ), the Chinese authorities regulate ( read : prevent or even stop completely ) tour operators from managing large numbers of Chinese tourists in Taiwan. This prompted the Taiwanese government's recent shift to strongly promote tourism in other Asian countries, starting with the many agreements with Japan in this regard.
I was kidnapped many years ago and in conversation with them (to calm them and myself) they regarded kidnapping their profession, literally asking me to allow them do their job.

You could feel they had a script for how things had to go. First they scare you to try to get you to say things from which they can get a feel for how much you're worth, then they throw a high number (I guess based on the previous step), negotiation starts, the ransom delivery and finally release.
That's a bit like saying a vector is 'a row of numbers'. Not incorrect, but missing the point. What matters is what vectors do. It's the properties like pointwise addition, scalar multiplication, and existence of an inverse that make vectors vectors.

Deep Work, the ultimate state of focus?
I've been using it on my personal laptop for the past two months.

There are a lot of rough edges to the desktop experience, but it generally works. And while that's faint praise, I have no current plans to switch back to Fedora (3 years) or Debian (12 years prior to that).

It's comforting to know that my entire base system configuration is declarative, and it's pleasant to not worry about libraries conflicting or unnecessary packages lingering around.

Immediate, ephemeral access to programs via, e.g., `nix-shell -p pdftk` is extremely convenient: they're only available in that shell session, and they (along with their dependencies) get cleaned up the next time you run `nix-collect-garbage`. Super handy.

I still don't understand what C#/.NET brings to the table that the Linux ecosystem is lacking. All these years it seemed to me that MdI was understanding something that I don't know about. I really appreciate all the efforts that MdI has put into Mono and I appreciate the fact that we have .NET core for Linux but I completely fail to understand what the practical benefits are. C# seems to be a more flexible version of Java that is suffering from feature creep. I have not seen any notable .NET libraries that I want to take advantage of.

Maybe I am too deep in my Linux filter bubble. Can someone give me some examples of where .NET on Linux really shines?

>But then I don't understand why so much capital would be required just for getting permits.

There are lots of permits that only become available much later in the process. For example, an occupancy permit is only granted once the building is in a habitable state.

There are always permit delays of some kind or another because no matter how much research and planning you do, there are things that are simply unknown or that have to be changed (and thus re-permitted) at the proverbial last minute.

I agree on most things written in this articles, except that sadly, very few can afford eating meat two times a day (and it's not advised either).

Not agree at all with the rant about dulce de leche. I traveled around the globe, and I can tell that many countries will be better countries if they include dulce de leche in their recipes (specially Italian pastry and ice cream).

A mention to roasted molleja (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gizzard) would be deserved, since it's one of the most appreciated component of the asado (roasted meat).

The article is about restaurants, mostly. There is also the Sunday morning tradition of making asado, in family, where the man prepares the meat, and the women make the salad and side dishes.

Oh, I meant more generally seeing someone getting forced out by a single other person in the organization.

What is sad is the corporate speech in France which looks like this for no reason, because not only people are not really that good in English, but also the used words have French equivalents (e.g. "J’peux pas aller au meeting car j’ai un call avec la team qui bosse en remote").

As I’m living abroad I use a lot of local words in my speech with other French or locals that speak French but most of the time it’s because there is no direct or short equivalent.

Unlikely about battery capacity and range. Tesla have consistently delivered in that side of things. The core of their car business is solid.

Their problem on the production side is not surprising. Missing deadlines and production targets is business as usual for "startups" (between quotes because they are massive, however still very much a new and small player in that field) "We will deliver million of widget in 2 years for $20" really means "we will deliver 100K widget in 5 years for $40" with the enthousiasm you expect of a company at that stage.

Every claim around autonomous driving have been bullshit and they have doubled down on their bullshit instead of owning up. The grandiose announcement, Trumpish tweeting and technical presentation that carefully avoid talking about the current technical issue they must have solved ? That smells like they are trippling down.
