This is exactly it. I drive a diesel and I dread going to the fuel station. That stuff gets all over your hands (even using the little plastic gloves), it stinks and is very difficult to wash off. It's incredibly rare for me to drive more than 100 miles per day (my commute is a 60 mile round trip). I honestly can't wait for the day that I can swap it for an EV and wake up to full range every morning.

Unfortunately I just can't justify the cost of changing car at the moment, but that day will come.
I do the same, I used to run my VMs off of ZFS with spinning disks, but that was too slow at times, so my last upgrade has been giving the VMs their own SSDs and that has worked out great, I then backup the VMs to ZFS and snapshot them.
I see it as the schools in rich neighborhoods get more attention. If HVAC broke down the school district would hear it. Because the parents are more attentive and reactive. If the same thing happened to a school in a poorer neighborhood the parents wouldn’t react. Would t take time from work to attend those district meetings and the politicians will allocate the monies for their biggest complainers. Rinse and repeat for a decade and you end with those schools being in really bad shape due to delayed and neglected maintenance.

I live downtown and have been petitioning the school district for our own school. Downtown has grown from 10K to 80k residents in a decade. The school board has submitted and withdrawn plans for downtown. Costs are a big factor in withdrawing. But each year they delay that construction on a downtown school is only going to get more expensive.
Even with bicycles, those days are almost over. Wireless electronic shifting is trickling down from the top-of-the-line bikes.

The inside story of John McAfee's crypto promotions business
Hi HN!

This is the first freemium release of HTTP Toolkit: a suite of beautiful & open-source tools for debugging, testing and building with HTTP(S).

I've been working on the internals of all this as a free & open-source project for a year or two now. That came together as a standalone free app a few months back, and today's the day it goes freemium (but still 100% open-source), with a pile of massive new features and a move towards long-term sustainability.

Screenshots & explanations for all the new features inside. Let me know what you think :-)
> So, unless you can get to the point of being "fuck you" rich, salary does not really matter.

That's the main point of having a high salary for a lot of people.
I don't think that's true at all. The BBC has run lots of major stories embarrassing to the government such as the failed role out of Universal Credit and the Windrush scandal.

Right now there's this story on the front page -
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-47884273 - which appears to be original investigative reporting into a Tory MP.

What are you basing your opinion on?

> The only thing we disagree on is the best route to get there.

So we agree on most of everything, except this massive, critical thing?

Even aside from that, your examples of shared values also don't strike me as universally agreeable. I find many of these apparently agreeable things just poorly defined. It's much more obvious why these issues are so divisive when you dig a little deeper.

What exactly would getting rid of all crime mean? Because people disagree on what should be considered a crime.

Getting rid of poverty? Well, what kind of poverty do you mean? Because poverty in many ways is relative. Getting rid of all poverty implies getting rid of all wealth inequality. Is that really something you believe everyone agrees on?

Everyone owning their own land? I'd be surprised if everyone agreed on private land ownership. Everyone has a nice house? What kind of house? I'm not sure everyone wants to live in a suburbia.

Would you rather spend the 10,000 to capture 1 ton of carbon or instead pay 10 factories to reduce their output 10 tons each.

We can make it a concrete example.

Build a nuclear plant first.

Alternative 1: use the nuke plant to do carbon capture from the atmosphere while next door ten coal plants run and pollute as before.

Alternative 2: produce electricity so all the ten coal plants stay off.

The latter approach has about 10x the CO2 reduction effect.

Interesting read, but kinda sad that the runner in question was not interviewed for this piece. I think the points made are kinda vague and lack good examples to make a stronger case for this thesis.
This is what I was thinking. If it's something that wasn't meant to be published, I assume your right as the owner hold.

How you'd solve this, logistically in an example like yours (Linux kernel) I have no idea, but I presume by the time it's been made public long enough to be cloned/forked (a la the company in question in OP) all of your efforts should be focused on damage control.
No idea what is actually going on, but the first thought that comes to my mind is that in the US you're allowed and expected to blatantly lie in marketing while in the EU you may have to keep it somewhat realistic...

Is there even a need for such a device? Or are those desperate attempts to sell new features?

From what I have experienced, the smartphone market is basically saturated. My peers and I no longer have a need for buying new devices. Basic stuff won't get any faster and 5 cameras are not worth a new device.
As someone interested in algorithms, Erik Demaine's work (and that of other researchers in the domain) on computational origami is fascinating. It basically boils down to, given a 3D shape, find a way to fold a 2D sheet to reproduce it.

The NSA is probably better at domestic surveillance because it's much easier and/or cheaper than foreign surveillance. If people of the same ability level work on both, the domestic results will be better. That doesn't meant the NSA is incompetent.

> What happens when the junior engineer pushes an update that kills a few hundred people

That's not how we do things when working on safety-critical systems. A change is specc'd, the spec is reviewed, the confirmed spec is implemented, the implementation is code reviewed, and the updated system is run through as much regression testing as we can throw at it. By the time an update is "pushed" to consumer hardwarwe it's been verified multiple times, and in a company the size of Tesla, by probably dozens of people.
> Nothing could stop you from opening a business that would offer insurance in case of key theft.

I don't think insurance models work for this. How can the insurance company verify that the key wasn't stupid simple? It seems very hard to determine prices and premiums if can't assess the 'risk' - knowing that all 'risk' comes from the potential of user-error and nothing else

Also, there's the issue that in our financial system its very difficult for the common person to transfer all of their money to another account they own and call it theft. If I'm not mistaken that is a possibility with every single cryptocurrency, right?
A key is just a long number. The AACS encryption key controversy was the subject of DCMA take downs because the key could be used to strip DRM, not because it was a number.
Also, if you forget and then realise, there's no way that five minutes before bed you'll put proper clothes on, drive out to a fuel station, fill it up and drive home. Not going to happen. But popping down to plug the EV into the mains is something you might actually remember then go and do, like putting that cheese back in the fridge or running the dishwasher.
If you have a case on eg. an iPhone then it extends slightly beyond the screen at the sides, which probably makes quite a big difference in protecting particularly the sides of the screen.
He’s not a troll (I.e. OP is sincere, not just trying to provoke) he’s probably a libertarian that forgot that HT usually refers to forced prostitution. (As opposed to coyotes moving ppl across borders)

While the OP’s point was not well articulated (assuming I’m right about his political leanings), this illustrates the importance of the principle of charity; I.e he’s not mental and/or unredeemable. He just has quirky a worldview

For the record, I disagree with OP on eliminating borders.

A few other bits worth noting:

- You don't need to rent a car on the other end.

- You can take all the luggage that fits into the car. (even if there's a bottle of water in your luggage!)

- You can stop along the way for some decent food and a good leg stretch.

- You can listen to the radio without headphones and roll down the windows for some air that won't dry your skin out.

- No fixed schedule or chance of missing the trip if running late.

Nowadays cars use an engine life monitor and report to the owner that they need service every 8-10,000 depending on use
I don't have any data to back this up but I would think that most cars going into the dealership network for maintenance are still under warranty; are less than 5 years old and not going in for expensive or time consuming engine work such as replacing head gaskets, belts, bearings, etc.

Instead, I would think most cars going into the dealership network are either:

1. Having a part replaced under warranty because it is faulty or there is a recall

2. Having a service under a service pack or because the car is still in warranty

3. Having some kind of interior defect fixed (rattling in the cabin, infotainment issue, etc)

and that these issues are still common enough in EVs that I don't expect the dealership network to change much.
Also similar maybe not as in depth situations are made in the UK, US and others. Not just China.

A Fading Twitter Changes Its User Metrics Once Again
It's a blatant lie because the author of that code snippet is trying to trick the reader into thinking that Wayland's isolation somehow has been broken, but that's not true at all.

In the real world, any secure desktop solution is going to require a reliable execution environment ("security is only as good as your weakest link"). If you don't trust the user to properly handle that, then you must ensure they don't do anything stupid or dangerous to themselves by restricting what they can do. For desktop applications this usually means to execute them in a sandbox (such as Flatpak). QubeOS tries to do something similar, but stumbles upon the inherently insecure design of the X Server, and has to work around it running separate X server instances for each unreliable X client.

This oversimplifies the complex eco system that newspapers had. Content of a typical dozen page newspaper was headlines, minor news, infotainment, utility and ads. The minor news work by a journalist was heavily subsidized by other sections. In other words, a journalist sitting in city council meetings and doing reporting is unlikely to find revenue by himself to fund even meager life style. If newspapers were to completely fall apart, I would expect around 70% of journalists go extinct due to loss of ecosystem.

A better analysis might also be to consider emulators as well. Since virtually any desktop system of any recent vintage can run a C64 emulator capable of running this game, the actual number of "compatible systems" may be much higher.

It is true that a lot of synthetic oils are approved for 10, 15 and even 20,000 miles in some cases.

You should however be changing your brake fluid every 2 years regardless of whether or not you have regenerative braking. Brake fluid degrades over time as water gets absorbed.
