As I replied in another comment:

This echos my own experience over past couple of months. Deliberate intellectual approach and introspection. I improved a lot when I started doing that. However, when I try to talk about it with my friends and trainers, they dismiss it. I don't expect them to have the answers, but they're not particularly willing to engage in conversation either. They don't understand what I'm talking about. The advice I always get "this is different, you have to feel it". Repeat repeat repeat until you get it. That never worked for me. Or rather, I work hard but the benefits are slim. I feel like I've been getting 30% gains from the training while I could be getting 80%.

Wow! Lisper, Ron Garret. This is Rod Rinkus, inventor of Sparsey. You and I had what I thought was a congenial email exchange about quantum computing a month ago. And, here, out of the blue, you disparage my work in the public square, and in a cowardly fashion, behind my back. I guess that says a lot about your character. Yet, your comment really doesn't make much sense, does it? You even begin your comment with a disclaimer to the effect of "This is really not relevant to this thread"..but then you go on to disparage my work. Kind of a weird thing to do. We're you drunk?

In any case, I demand a public apology from you, here in the public square, where you committed your cowardly wrongdoing. We'll see what you're made of in how you handle that. If you have enough conscience and consciousness to apologize for your behavior, then we can move to you explaining your specific criticism of my work, which is now incumbent on you, is it not?..since I've called out your unwarranted and thoughtless attack. This will be a lot of mental work for you, since, thus far, you demonstrate no knowledge of Sparsey, or any of the relevant computational principles. But again, that will take you a long time. So, I recommend you apologize first, rather than keep your audience waiting.

You probably won't buy the EVs without checking you have the charging capacity before hand.
You don't need to necessarily have independent audio streams to have good audio, just independent sources. I did a podcast up until January, and as the person doing the editing, I found zero benefit to having one input stream per microphone, and ultimately I eventually just started outputting the multiple inputs as a single dual channel stream. Podcasts that aren't in person are rough to listen to though, for sure. The ability to read body language and respond without weird little timing idiosyncrasies just isn't there with Skype.
There are a lot of people that are tied to C#/.Net that would never consider Linux as a target if not for the cross platform nature of core. It's the same reason Electron apps are on Linux. They'd be Windows/Mac only if not for the ease of being cross platform.
> There's probably order of magnitude fewer parts to break.

According to Tesla a comparative ICE drivetrain will have around 200 moving parts, while one of their vehicles will have roughly 17.

The real upside is longevity. While it is a miraculous feat that machines, such as transmissions, last as long as they do today - they're not needed in electric vehicles. I think it's fair to assume we all expect 100k miles and more out of a car produced in the last decade. The two main components of a traditional ICE vehicle are the main contributors to longevity of a vehicle: engine and drivetrain. Those two items are of such high cost to replace many people will not consider the repair as replacement is more feasible.

As electric cars stand today longevity is significantly improved immediately. The major failure components will be batteries and electric motors. However the former can be considered a wear item and is, generally easy, to replace. The latter is also much cheaper and more simple to replace compared to the ICE equivalent. That being said the expectations of a BEV today are 300k+ miles with significantly less wear maintenance.

Finally as electric vehicles tend to be more modular it may very well be that we finally start to see platforms instead of model year differentials. If I have 'platform 1' here are motor, battery, electronics, etc upgrade options. We haven't seen this that bluntly yet, but I hope we get there. Cars today are built as non-upgradeable partially due to the built in life cycling / planned obsolescence the manufacturers have created for improved sales. It would be great if we could truly move cars to a more repair / upgrade centric platform. Not only could this spur new forms of labor and business but help waste reduction and overall manufacturing waste and pollution.
Some oil places just straight up tell you a lower number even when the owner's manual of the car says a higher one. I just go with what the manual says, rather than some random Jiffy Lube employee.
Does this book explore what does it mean to think? This is a topic that I'm interested right now. It became clear to me that the way I think is different than a lot of people do. Most people seem to be the intuitive type. So how does a thought appear in your head? How do you link thoughts together and make a decision? One mental process will be good for training, another for coding. If one were able to articulate the process and describe the state of mind then maybe we can learn better.
Nodes are just pages, nothing else. Think of them as HTML pages in a browser.

Note that info does allow for global search, if anything searching is one of its main strengths over a bunch of HTML files in a directory, and it even allows both for arbitrary text search and for index-based search (where documents can place invisible index markers mid-text and searching for the text of markers as keywords you jump to the exact text position).

Of course this relies on the info viewer to implement. In the default GNU info viewer the / key does a search in the current page only, Alt-/ does a search in the current page and any pages linked as subpages (so you can do a search across pages but only at the current node - e.g. if you are in a book about a programming language and you are in the reference section you can search the entire reference, but ignore any tutorials or guides that may be placed in sections adjacent to the reference), i does a search in the index (here the prompt can do entry completion for you by pressing tab) and jumps to the appropriate entry and finally I (shift+i) does a search in the index and displays the results in a generated node (page) with links to each target (you can search this generated node using the / too).

Tkinfo provides similar functionality although i do not have an installation at the moment available to ensure (i'm under Windows where i have GNU info via msys2 but not tkinfo). Being a GUI application it does provide a few niceties like displaying the index and search results in separate windows and you also can choose to open links in separate windows (no tab support though).

I haven't used pinfo much, although IIRC from the little i used it (mainly to see how an info file i was working on looked there) despite it colorfulness it was a bit limited compared to other viewers.

No, I've always been befuddled by how both the Dutch and Belgian have basically had their colonial reigns of terror handwaved away.

It's likely that neither nation really acknowledges it or has anyone agitating internally for the nation to own up to it. So like you said, they're rich and a bit amoral.
No. I'm talking about the EPA (USA) rating of the e-Tron vs other cars. EPA ratings for EVs are generally pretty accurate vs real world range, although in the real world a lot depends on driving style and weather etc.
Those are far easier to handle than, for example, changing a timing belt on a gasoline engine. Faster too...

You need less qualified people, less time, less parts, less often for repairs that a handy person can often do themselves and save on labor and parts. Significant sources of income are therefore shrunk for dealerships.

Ask HN: What are your mental frameworks that guide you through life?
I've learned some interesting "one-line-frameworks" that just seem to make my life easier and guide me through different situations. I started to use most of them in a business context but transfered them to various social and family situations over the years.

Here are my two favourites. The first one is "Angry people demand, professionals require". I picked it up some years ago and it works like a mirror for me. In stressful conflicts, it reminds me to anchor what I want to a requirement. It helps me communicate why I need what I ask for, not just command and demand. Often I reverse my requests completely when I notice I'm just angry and I don't really have a solid base for what I'm asking.

The second one is the "Gap of Suck" which I first read in a book by Kathy Sierra. The idea is that most new skills require you to work through the Gap of Suck, the initial zone where you feel overwhelmed and stupid. Be it a new programming language or paradigm, a new sport, gardening – this model encouraged me to work through the first ugly and foggy hours of learning a new task.

Do you use similar mental models or frameworks?

I'm wondering what types of range extension methods could be easily added to an EV.
Scenario: I'm going to drive 900km/560mi and it's -10 outside (I do this multiple times per year).
I want a cosy room temperature inside the cabin.

- How can I ensure I waste as little range as possible on heating, so that I don't risk having to make e.g. 2 stops instead of one?

- More critically, if I get stuck in traffic for several hours because of an accident, I need some way to ensure I don't freeze to death in my EV as I'm standing still and the battery runs out.

It seems these two things should be solvable with a single solution: a plug-in space heater to be used in emergencies and for maximizing cold weather range. The space heater could be e.g. a kerosene burner or similar. But for best effect it should of course "plug in" to the car vents.

Is this a thing? Or is heating the passenger compartment such a trivial use of energy anyway if the car is insulated, that it doesn't make a difference? In a concrete scenario: If I drive a model 3 and have 100km battery left, and I have 20km to my planned charging stop half way through my journey. Suddenly traffic stands still because of an accident and it's freezing outside. How long will the "100km" charge maintain the 30K temperature difference while still having 20km left?

The unquestionable notion that democracy with capitalism is the only reasonable form of society has created highly corrupt states with facade institutions pretending to be democratic, serving the interests of the local elites behind the scenes. Democracy is just one possible way for a society and it has to be developed organically through history, not forced upon populations. Many people are perfectly happy with someone else making decisions for them, as long as they trust that other person.
But the number of required service stations is also a function of how many customers you have and how they are distributed gographically, not only of how often they visit a station?

Surely you don't want people to drive 200km to the nearest service station, no matter if that's once a year or once every 3 years? Maybe that's the difference - customers expect EVs to be bleeding edge, so the service can be a hassle, and you can still get away with it?

I don't think I know of Pico Iyer (I'm pretty sure I've never seen any of his books). Nara is an extremely wonderful place, though. It's a really nice mix of suburbian/small town living, with a ton of beautiful scenery, insane amounts of history and culture and is only a stone's throw from the metropolis that is Kyoto. He seems to have his feet in two places, though. Coming to Nara in the fall is great, but I can't quite wrap my head around the concept of living in Japan and not "experiencing the 4 seasons". Any foreigner who has lived in Japan long enough has been asked "Does your country have 4 seasons" an incredible number of times.

When I first moved to Japan, I asked an old woman how to learn about Japanese culture. She told me, "Spend a year with no heating and no air conditioning. Use only a hand fan in the summer. To be Japanese is to be acutely aware of the seasons". And so I did it (to be fair, Shizuoka rarely gets below freezing in the winter, so I wasn't going to die -- and I admit to 2 weeks of heat in March ;-) ). Going without heating or air conditioning in itself didn't actually teach me anything, as you may have already suspected. However, if the inside of your house has the same weather as the outside of your house, you have no incentive to stay inside. Indeed, walking around in the abundant sunshine was my only way of warming up. This meant that I had to go places and meet people and live in my town.

Every season is different too. I mean, it's not unique to Japan by any stretch of the imagination. However it was the first time in my life that I just went out and looked at everything every day. The birds are different. The fish are different. The sky is different. The flowers and plants are different. They change from day to day. It got so that I couldn't bear to be away from it -- I would miss the day that the crocuses open. Or I would miss the day that the namazu barge their way into the rice fields to spawn.

People wonder why the Japanese celebrate cherry blossoms. In fact, hanami (or flower watching) was originally meant for an earlier season when the ume (flowering plum, though actually a type of apricot) blooms. In the olden times cherry blossoms were seen as over the top and audacious. However, there is something to be said for cherry trees -- they bloom for a very short time. You might have only 1 day or at best 2 days to enjoy them when they are at the peak and so you must pay attention. Similarly, when the time is right, you must make sure to stop what you are doing and go to see the cherry blossoms. They will not come again for another full year.

This is what Japanese culture means to me. I'm not sure if it is only me, though :-) My town is my town because I live in it, not just exist in it. Every rock, every flower, and every animal is precious to me. I can't bear to be away from it. I also have to travel for work and every time, I leave a piece of me behind. For me, I can't imagine having my feet in 2 different places.

Of course. I'm not trying to play a game of 'my EV is better than that EV' (nb I drive a Leaf). I'm pointing out that many people underestimated the lead Tesla has in EV technology. This year we've seen major, and esteemed, automakers put things into production that are clearly years behind what Tesla can do. I'm glad they are joining in, but I'm just trying to set the record straight.

FWIW the Kia Niro EV (and the Hyundai Kona Electric which is based on the same platform) are very serious competitors for the Model 3. Kia and Hyundai seem to have got the EV tech figured out. But alas they can't hardly manufacture any of them. So thats Tesla's other advantage - a whopping huge battery factory.
