I hate to break it to you but very few vehicles are going to the dealer for engine/trans related work. Dealerships mostly only see vehicles that are new enough to be under warranty or recently out of it and major power-train stuff doesn't often break in that time period. It's stuff like steering and suspension wear items, the occasional window motor, trunk latches that won't pop, HVAC and stuff like that they make most of their money doing. EVs would probably actually net more money for dealers more money because they wouldn't take a loss on fixing random leaks under warranty (they get paid but book times are often unrealistic).

> who can see how powerless or unwilling social networks [...] are to stop them

They're not powerless. They're certainly unwilling, and demonstrate an obvious active mindset _against_ democracies:

1. Nothing, nothing in Facebook' or Twitter' CEOs, PR deparments or boards demonstrate an inch of knowledge or understanding of what a democracy is.

2. On the other hand, their actions and their words clearly speak that they ought to make their (privately owned and controlled) platforms fundamental building and governance blocks for society.
But the capitalists can't field the firepower to enforce their surveillance unless they become part of a governmental apparatus.

People don't value or pay for news that way and it hurts many who otherwise couldn't afford it. Publishers also don't work together and the long-tail doesn't make enough anyway.

Agree, kinda.

E.g. rather than how domain names work, I'd rather people learn about privacy in the internet era.

Rather than say, RAM, I'd rather people learn about how social media is addictive and why, etc.

All of the above would be good too :)
> It doesn't matter whether the propagandists succeed or not-their mere unfettered existence is enough to disturb people.

Are you sure that the demonopolization of the marketplace of public opinion isn't disturbing a small minority that in turn riles up the public? That is: are you sure that "the people" at large are worried about "populism", "propaganda" and "trolls", or are they merely worried because the media tells them that it's basically the end of the world as we know it?
Because I actually spent time consciously deprogramming myself as I become aware of the perniciously racist elements of our culture natch.

And it’s not complete. We all harbor some of the racist conditioning, I’m just willing to be cognizant of it because I think perpetuating racist things is worse than being called out on it.

Isn't "Apple news" something like that? I remember Apple also had a NewsStand (which I never used).

Do you mean a monthly paid service (e.g. $10) that would provide infinite or finite number of articles (e.g. 200 articles for $10, or 1000 articles for $20)?

I see a problem in that area. How would a company get paid? The <insert title of serious newspaper> will want to price their articles more thatn the <insert title of trashy gossip newspaper>. It would be a mess to figure this out.

And who will be hosting all these articles?

This is an interesting point to discuss/develop.
Yeah, the whole "Long time listener, first time caller" thing where they take like a minute before they get to their question, if indeed they actually have one. To be fair, I see this sort of thing in person fairly often in scientific seminars where somebody "asks a question" but spends time first complimenting the speaker on the seminar, and then spends a couple of minutes just making comments rather than actually asking an answerable question.
Engine and trans stuff isn't a significant source of income for them though. If anything ICE specific parts are a break even waste of a bay because for every person dumb enough to have a dealer do a timing belt out of warranty there's another person getting some leaking gasket replaced under warranty. Dealerships probably stand to make more money on EVs. Independent mechanics will probably lose out some though.
Its funny how this is a worry but it basically never happens. There is basically a incredibly tiny number of actual cases where this 'predatory pricing and then raise prices' has worked and not in markets as open as e-commerce and delivery that other companies could easily get into.

In fact historically this has not happened before Anti-Trust laws. It has basically been used by competitors who couldn't compete on the market so they went to their friends in government to stop their competition. Since they didn't want to argue 'Their product is better and cheaper' they argued, 'Its predatory pricing, as soon as I'm gone this company is gone raise prices'.

The first US anti-trust law was enacted because butchers were extremely angry about centralized slaughtering houses that used refrigerated trains to transport meat. Classic special interest politics. But somehow 150 years later the evil centralized slaughtering houses haven't raised the prices yet.
Yes, sorry, the phrase repeated by nearly everyone was "90% [of [small] businesses] fail in the first year". Which compared to your 25% figure is pretty markedly different - that's the sort of discrepancy I was seeing.

I don't understand where these sweeping statements are coming from. I grew up in a third-world country too, and transitioned myself from belonging to a lower middle class family, into an upper middle class life.

I’ve consulted with a project that used JSONAPI Compliable (Lee’s original project) and has since switched to Graphiti. Lee’s support of the team lead of that project via Slack is nothing short of incredible. He’s gone so far out of his way to help, refusing any form of compensation. Wish more open source devs had the extreme care for support that he does. Kudos @richmolj!

Companies other than Apple do this all the time. That's what most "X beat Apple at innovation bringing Y to market" amount for.

For all the BS lip service about "innovation" (in an industry where few do any), Jobs Apple was thoroughly evolutionary. Each subsequent iPod iteration added something small but substantial, each iPhone iteration ditto.

There was no huge revolutionary steps between releases -- the product itself, and being well thought out and usable and good was the revolution.

The product idea wasn't revolutionary either (there were touch smartphones before the iPhone, and mp3 players before the iPod, tables before the iPad and so on -- the key wasn't that it was the revolutionary, but it was the first finally decent all-rounder -- as opposed to the first thrown-together mis-mash that works if you have low expectations and love tinkering as a "power user").

That said, Apple has increasingly been doing the same "pre-announce/release half-though BS" themselves past 2015 or so (e.g. the butterfly keyboard, the can Mac Pro, the touch strip, the wireless charger that never materialized, the 2+ years in the making Mac Pro replacement, etc).
It's almost as if decentralized federalism of the United States, with a limited federal government, states which are essentially 50 laboratories to experiment with which ideas work, which don't, and which need to be different, with lots of county and town level control as befits the granularities of each level of affiliation, starts to make sense.
So don't listen to NPR? I don't understand how any of this is a reflection of podcasts as a whole. There are so many different podcasters and organisations all doing it completely differently. It's one of the most democratic forms of media consumption that I'm aware of - you can pick any platform, you can pick whatever you want to listen to, you're not locked into a certain player or anything else. If you don't like the way one podcast sounds, listen another podcast.
I’ve always liked a framework from the book, “Seven Habits of Highly Successful People,” where you break your life into roles (i.e., self, spouse, parent, employee, entrepreneur, volunteer, etc.). Then you organize around these roles (tasks, events, goals, etc.). This is much more than a one-liner, of course.
> It’s great for lawyers, but irritating and expensive for everyone else. And when done clumsily or maliciously

I’m not arguing the truth of the claim, but consider: if a lawyer advises you to defend your trademarks and that you could lose them if you don’t, would you risk it? There’s no obvious upside to being nice in cases like this.
"Openness and the exchange of ideas" is not something that developing countries are known for, though - and not something that would be promoted by having government-sponsored "propagandists and bots" around, either!

In general, while democracy in the sense of having regular elections might be a bit overrated (as shown, e.g. by the failure to "export" it in places like Iraq!), basic freedom, openness and widespread awareness about the values of a "commercial society" (sometimes called "bourgeois values") are extremely important and the closest thing we know of to a recipe for successful development and enduring wealth.

I agree but I'm not quite sure what you mean with your last statement. Lacking knowledge of "perfect" size for cities (and countries) is one thing, and iirc there are people studying just that (looking at stability, self-reported happiness of citizens, crime, mental health etc), but what technology would we need to implement the results? "Let's split this country into five smaller ones" doesn't sound like a technological problem ;)

Do you read commit history looking for, say, relocated secrets? Do you go through the pain of rewriting said history regardless of whether you avoid merges with your current workflow or not? For me, that's too many risky and involving things to do. This advice will only work if you're only going to export squashed commits from private repo to the public one once in a while.
Also that one purpose for NULL is "unknowable" or "undefined," which means you're jamming some other value there in its place.

Yes, but if I have more batteries I'll already factor that into my planning so I'll make fewer stops. If I have to always maintain X% battery when I'm driving in cold temps (to be able to survive N hours in case of a cold weather traffic jam) then it effectively just shortens the range. Adding X% battery to compensate this has to be very expensive compared to having a burner space heater and a gas/kerosene bottle for emergencies.
Is this what's done? The Tesla fans air over the batteries into the cabin?
In some countries yes. The US system is more intended for you to pick the person you distrust the least.
There's a whole lot about advertising I don't know, but the question that sticks in my mind is, did you need that ad to know which rice cooker to buy the second time? Did it change your decision? Did you see an ad for a different rice cooker and act on that?

It seems like an effective ad would be this: Say you bought a rice cooker on Amazon for $75. Now Walmart shows you an ad for the same rice cooker for $60. That would certainly stick in my head- not for the rice cooker but for the price difference that Walmart can provide.
I tell people to just change it on the 5s because that's an easy round number and an engine that burns/leaks a little probably won't run out in that time. For synthetic I'd say 10k.
True. Java makes it trivial to write cross-plattform code. But we are no longer in the 90s. There are plenty of cross-plattform C++ libraries available that make it easy to write cross-plattform programs. I do not think that this is such a major argument any longer.

And yes, Java is very feature-conservative.

Thanks for posting that, TeMPOral. It helps to put things in a good perspective - our business has given us much joy, far more joy than a regular job would. Not so great on the money aspect; which I guess is why no-one has stepped up with interest to take it on.
While true, they are wrong of course. I also don't really think that trolls are a real issue, even if they have been thoroughly fed the last years. They also don't represent the worst in humanity. Everything that happened people did to themselves and they are looking for scapegoats and someone to blame. This is the worst of humanity. Granted, you could blame trolls, but that should not convince anyone.

At least not worse than the frightful recoil, abandoning ideals like free expression/speech, democracy and freedom. Equality still seems to be the holy cow even if it will collide with freedom at some point.

Stability can be convincing, but people in western nation do not have that excuse. Reading something on the net you don't like is no reason to abandon principles that any modern nation is based upon.

Democracy is the correct form of government, since it is the only form of governance that doesn't extract its legitimacy from power. Democracy requires emancipated voters. You cannot apply that to any third world country and suddenly things get better. It has to come from within a society.

There is also a secret to online mobs/trolls: ignore them and nothing happens. I also do not believe in the power of bots aside from faking ad reach. That would require an example of a talking point. This is why it was difficult to believe in far reaching Russian propaganda efforts: The message was lacking.

I do see the "hateful noise" of social media. If that matters to me is fully in my hands.

> their mere unfettered existence is enough to disturb people.

Mostly induced by false media reports.
I guess this is the way to go. Quite annoying as I am switching between different screen setups/resolutions/physical layouts frequently.
Really. I have friends and family who have moved from NY to London and they all say London is slightly more expensive.

Most online comparisons are weird for two reasons: 1) they include the cost of car ownership, which is common in neither place, and 2) most rental apartments in London are furnished and in NY are not. I’ve seen comparisons for the cost of a furnished rental, but in NY you’d pay a huge premium for that. It’s also, of course, just plain hard to choose equivalent neighborhoods.

Reportedly, the rental market in London is even tighter than in NY. My friends say you can get a 1-BR or 2-BR for about 10% more than in NY (after accounting for exchange rates, and with housing stock / in a location that they consider equivalent to what they’d left behind), but it will be smaller simply because historically London buildings have been constructed with smaller rooms than NY ones.

Food in London seems to be more expensive than in NY. Medical care, of course, is less expensive. Transit is close enough to be a wash. Etc.
My inbox is always 0 shortly after I check it without filtering any emails that aren't automatic.

No fancy layouts required. It really just boils down to if I open gmail then I'm agreeing to myself that I'm spending whatever time it takes to address everything right now.

This is coming from someone who usually wakes up with 10s of emails since I offer personal support for 30,000+ people who take my video courses. A lot of these questions are quite technical too (Docker / Flask / programming things) and require writing custom responses and sometimes troubleshooting. I do this a couple of times a day but the bulk of the emails come up at night since that's the longest period of time where emails go unchecked for ~8 hours.

I wouldn't ever consider ignoring or not replying to an email from a person who isn't spamming me. To me that's almost the rudest thing you can do online.

For the people who struggle with email, how much email do you get and what's the nature of those emails?
I know many from various Middle Eastern countries who share a similar viewpoint.

As an Arab myself, I see it as nothing more than a defeatist attitude that is typically held by those who have enough money and connections (typically upper class).

Safety and democracy can coexist and are not mutually exclusive as you claim. The safest countries in the world are democracies last I checked.

Democracy is not only about “abstract notions of liberty”, but also (and more importantly) about justice and equality for all. When these “lesser-educated” people are held in prison without trial for watching the wrong Youtube video or practicing the wrong religion, they also realize this fact.
I'm 30, and was never really bored as a kid, thanks to my Sega Mega Drive, followed by my N64, followed by my Playstation 2 and the internet, etc. I think you need to go back a lot further to find that generation.
Exactly. Financials come out today, and after saying that it's "profits from here on out" ntwo quarters ago, Tesla will probably produce another huge loss.

My hunch is that heating is pretty insignificant compared to the huge power needed to move the car, like single digit percentage. But I like your question at the end and would be interested in someone running the numbers.

edit: Ok here we go - Model 3 users report using about 240 to 300 watt-hours per mile. So I think that means a 1KW heater for an hour is equivalent to about 3 or 4 miles of range.

My last car said 10k miles in the owner's manual, but every time I got the oil changed the dealership would always lie and say 5k miles was recommended.

Maybe that was true decades ago, but it's no longer true. They prey on the misinformed. To be charitable, maybe they know many people wait too long, but I doubt it.

I went every 10k miles or so.

Other cars can go longer distances without an oil change, as you say.

The oddest thing about 1984 is how the education system ( at least here in the US ) has turned it into a warning about the soviet union when it was in fact a warning about the west. Animal farm was about the soviet union. 1984 was about the west. And yet we are taught over and over again that 1984 was about the soviet union.

George Orwell worked as a propagandist for the BBC during ww2.

"I was wasting my own time and the public money on doing work that produces no result. I believe that in the present political situation the broadcasting of British propaganda to India is an almost hopeless task."

https://www.latimes.com/books/jacketcopy/la-et-jc-orwell-sta...

Orwell based the Ministry of Truth and Room 101 on the BBC. And yet the BBC is building a statue for Orwell for his work as a "journalist" at the BBC. What an insane world we live in. The BBC is co-opting Orwell to burnish their own reputation, even though Orwell criticized and warned us about the BBC. You have to respect the hubris even if you disagree with the misrepresentation.
