Couple points:

* how did you settle on 10 seconds? Keeping two databases in sync is a complex process. I'd suggest that the difference between running 1x/min or 6x/min is negligible -- and if it's not then probably you need something more sophisticated than a simple cronjob.

* I am providing free software. You are not contracting with me to provide developer support, so in my book I'm under no obligation to be courteous and polite all the time. I try to be most of the time, but nobody is perfect. Luckily the source is available if you don't want to talk to me. That was my point and I'm surprised that is so triggering to some people.

* Closing an issue is not deleting your thread.
I would consider the fact that one’s eyes should be on the road while driving to make the complaints slightly different.

I'm interested to see what the used market for Model 3's will look like. We're close to hitting the point where a notable number of original owners might want to trade in.

Im guessing it will be an odd market, since parts and service might be difficult for secondary owners. And a fair amount of the Model 3 parts have had a less than stellar history for durability.

is 500€ (tax included) considered high end? The first result searching for "laptop" with a 8 GB ram filter on Amazon.it is an HP 14s, with an i5-8250U, 8 GB of ram and a 256 GB ssd priced at 599€. The third result is the same but with an AMD A9, for half the price (349€).

I would buy any of them with ChromeOS at that price (I'm interested from a developer point of view, especially for the Android subsystem)

That's leaps over any Chromebook I can find, and those are real laptops that can do any workflow.
I think the cost benefits of owning an electric car. Low maintenence cost, environmental positive, etc far outweight how entertained we are in our cars. Regardless, there is no feature that carplay has that Tesla doesn't. The last update allows Tesla owners to read messages and improves voice commands.
I searched through a few Impossible patents as a result of this thread. They've certainly got a number.

As near as I can tell (not chemist), they're focusing their patents on (a) extractive methods (e.g. how to produce raw starting blocks from actual, grown plants) & (b) specific mixes or treatments that target the meat-analog market.

For example, a lot of their parents are of the form of "a food product with X% this, Y% that, Z% the other. Where X had a molecular weight of A and a gel point of B degrees. Where Y has..."

Decently popular at SMB as well.

The point is it doesn't need to outsell Windows it just needs to have markets it targets and updates for those markets. That it doesn't have updates for markets it doesn't target is irrelevant unless they've maxed out all the markets they target (they haven't yet).
Sure - thats certainly one reason. But why would a near monopolistic business (USPS) cut their prices?

tbh, electric tech has gotten very good in general. In the last couple years I've replaced my lawn mower and chainsaw with all electric models. They share the same battery so I can just move the battery between the two devices.

In terms of performance, they're 90-95% as good as the gas models they replaced. But they bring so many other benefits to the table that I'm simply not ever going to go back -- mostly the lack of exhaust fumes, the much lower (and less messy) maintenance, and much much quieter.

There's still some use-cases where the gas variants are better, just like in vehicles, but they are few and far between and it's often worth it to just figure out how to get around using the gas models.

I really don't think there's a turning back at this point. It's really now a matter of filling out all the market ecosystems with electric vehicles.
The fear is that jobs left to humans are those low level ones. Technology divide up the society into elites who control machines and labors who is controlled by machines. And gradually, the elites become less and less until the day we humans are all batteries.

Not really. "Legal Entity" doesn't mean much, it's cheap to register a company and the name doesn't have to be unique. One guy registered a company called "Stripe" and got an EV cert for his site.[1] Modern web browsers don't show anything different for EV certs (try it). They stopped last year, mostly because EV certs were ineffective.

I had an accident in October. I've looked around for cars since this time and I really can't pull the trigger on any ICE cars. Even when factoring how cheap ICE cars are it becomes even more clear that for a few thousand dollars more I could eliminate oil/gas maintenence all together. The convienence alone is worth the 5k. I really don't know whats holding people back from such a superior product.

It was great to have different languages having different paradigms but now you can do everything in everything

I don't think you can do everything in everything. Try working with lazy immutable data structures in Rust, for one.

Or look at Dart - now has "non-nullable types," monadic error handling (sort of), but of course the whole thing is on shaky foundations so what's it worth?
How? I don’t see the general populace lining up to work at nursing homes to perform those duties for minimum wage. There’s an extreme shortage of people willing to work at nursing homes because the pay is not commensurate with the quality of life at work.

Radio spectrum is regulated by virtually every country on their own land. As a result, companies wanting to beam data into / out of each country have to work with local regulators for legal access. This means working with the Chinese government which also likely means going in / out the great firewall of china. It has nothing to do with Musk going against China, but if you want to play in a country, you play by their rules and respect their laws. Personally, I just imagine how much Starlink is going to help much of rural Africa and some of the most (internet-wise) under-served parts of the world.

Starlink doesn't mean that magically Russia, Cuba, and North Korea are all going to have unfettered internet access.

Have you heard of Unison? If not, it may interest you -- it stores code in a syntax tree rather than as text directly.

https://www.unisonweb.org/

>Unison is a language in which programs are not text. That is, the source of truth for a program is not its textual representation as source code, but its structured representation as an abstract syntax tree.

It has some further goals for doing this which are really exciting to me, such as content-addressable code, but the starting point is similar to the one you stated. :)
How will the rich, in a disaster area, put it to better use than the poor? Does re-selling the water at an even higher price to the poor once they've bought out the supermarkets really contribute to the rebuilding of an area hit by a disaster?

On the other end of the scale, if your survival depends on getting water but you don't have readily available money, do you deserve to die because your "use" of the water is not the "best"?
So you're saying that an American immigrating to Japan should resist learning about Japanese culture or the Japanese language?
Just skimming section 4, this really just looks like even more syntax being added to the language without enough benefit to justify the additional complexity. At this point, I think I've made the decision to just stick with C++11 indefinitely and backport the rare useful feature. I don't want to have to memorize all of this extra stuff.
socialism used to be opposed to state intervention into social affairs. The US especially had a tradition of anti-state socialists, largely on the grounds that the exploitation of workers in capitalism was believed by them to occur predominantly when Government intervenes on behalf of businesses in favor of the capitalist.

The other major american socialist was benjamin tucker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Tucker) who wrote about the schism between state socialism and traditional socialism, predicting, in effect, that Stalinism, Maoism, and Chavezism would be the natural consequence of Marxism, a good half century before they happened: https://panarchy.org/tucker/state.socialism.html

Interestingly Spooner and Tucker fought tooth and nail over the issue of IP (Spooner pro- and Tucker anti-) in a series of letters which presage conversations we're still having today.
Having never used CarPlay, I don't understand why it's a deal breaker. I've used Android Auto and while it was better than the stock infotainment system in virtually every car I ever used, it wasn't so good that not having it in a vehicle would be a deal breaker.

It can't just be "no CarPlay is a dealbreaker".

Of all the infotainment systems I've used, including Android Auto, Tesla's is the best by orders of magnitude.

> Other cars get software updates too, just you need to go to the dealership to get them.

Not in every case. The past two software updates I've gotten for my I-PACE have been over-the-air. In fact they installed while I was driving the car without interrupting anything.
My dealership wants to charge me $330 to do software updates to several components in my pickup that will fix some bugs, since its out of its bumper to bumper warranty.
I don't think that early american socialists like spooner and tucker held that the means of production is owned in common by the laborers, that, in particular is an outcome of marxist theory, which is a late 19th century socialist development.
The sec sued asking for punishment for violating the agreement. The judge basically said, ya, no, but why don't you guys write up a new one that everyone agrees on the meaning of. And that is what happened.

A settlement where you get literally nothing that you asked for is a loss not a win.

Edit: I just realized you linked to the wrong settlement. One sec, I'll find the right one for you.

It seems that the SEC didn't release any press releases over their loss (shocking, I know) - but here is an article: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-04-26/musk-sec-... - you could also refer to the original article you posted in your original incorrect claim that Musk violated the updated agreement.
Is this primarily because of coal for power generation? That seems too high even in that case.

It looks bad in the US North East which is densely populated so I guess it could be vehicular pollution as well. Are those where the coal based power plants located?

Other coal reliant countries like South Korea, India are also densely populated but the graph doesn't look that bad over there.

You see this in young puppies (3-6 month old) a lot as well. They get irritable/exhausted after 15-30 minutes of training, and usually dont seem to learn anything at all during the training activity itself. Then they pass out ("nap") for 30 minutes and when they wake up they do the trick/skill perfectly.

Same thing as humans, just more obvious/visible.

You are looking at the wrong number. US insurances are bloated institutions full of bureaucrats that do things that shouldn't be done. So it doesn't matter if they make some profit or lose money. They are still a big waste of money.

There will be a long lag between majority of sales are electric and majority of cars on the road are electric. ICE will still be majority on the road by the end of 2029. For this reason, ICE will not be quaint.

Starlink requires bi-directional user terminals - they're not just a passive dish, but also a transmitter. That means whereever in the world you deploy them, unless you're in international waters, you're going to need a spectrum license. SpaceX won't be going against any countries - they'd just end up with their users going to jail.

If SpaceX wants to deploy in China, it will be on China's terms. I think that Tesla's chinese factory doesn't greatly change that. SpaceX will get permission to sell to users in China only if the Chinese leadership thinks it's in China's and their interests.
Yes.

This is actually common situation. If you look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Neanderthal_fossils, the first Neanderthal fossil found was Engis 2 in 1829. The namesake fossil Neanderthal 1 was found in the Neandertal valley in 1856. It is just that Engis 2 was found but not recognized as Neanderthal fossil until 1936.
