It’s basically just the fact that they’re large enough to have a “complete economy” composed entirely of their business units. Samsung (or, for example, GE) doesn’t have to go outside itself to source chips, or trucks to transport them, or, well, anything, really. One business unit can “buy” those products/services from another business unit without anything necessarily appearing on a balance sheet of either business unit. (It’ll appear if it’s beneficial for them to do so, but half the reason they’ve conglomerated in the first place is to hide the things that’re not beneficial.)

Thus, such entities can do an entire skunkworks project without needing to touch the economy. Just like a state can.
The number of cars that beat the Camry on cool-points, but sell a lot less each year is a very long list. At least the Model 3 sales are growing and could very well overtake the Camry at some point.

(Camry sold about twice the Model 3 in the US last year.)

How is it stronger? It is a bit misleading to label UofT and Waterloo as "traditional" when both provide extensive coop programs and highly relevant courses.

I'd argue it's an attempt to appeal to 30 and 40 somethings who feel out of the cool demo. It's praying on their insecurities by allowing the reader to think, "I know Beyonce, I'm still cool."

Why are you sure of that? How much do batteries cost to replace? What is the mark up on a Tesla shop for parts and labor and how does that compare to a Toyota dealer?
I hope I am not confusing things but as far as I know there is still a coil if you have a distributor.
Perhaps. The thing is that what you really care about is 40 in a 30/20 sort of stuff.

Which I suppose could theoretically be done far more easily.

If the GPS coordinates are within the ring road of the city and no limit higher than your current speed exists there then you're a baddie and we should bust through your ceiling.

Personally, if we're going to use car telemetry I'd be far more in favour of having the system decide whether someone is actually driving dangerously rather than deciding that 55mph on the North Circular at 2am is worth hitting someone's license up over.

This is a huge straw-man. The claim is that it is that it takes a probability distribution that inherits from the underlying multiversal one, but weighted by your existence. All this proves is that the none of the n-bit random messages will cause you to immediately divide into at least 2^n copies of yourself.

I did read the whole article. The headline is the clickbaity and misleading part. The end of the article is... well, true? The Model 3 is a somewhat-higher-end car. Note that I mentioned the price complaint in my original comment, which is at the end of the article.
>How long before a speed safety campaign starts arguing that car manufacturers should be handing over information about people breaking the law in their cars to law enforcement...

Probably sometime after we have speed limits reasonable enough that the overwhelming majority people do not routinely exceed them and/or the politicians who write the laws stop driving.
Probably would cost more to stay. Besides, after Britain leaves, other countries will exit and then the EU will be no more.
I remember a while back seeing an ad for smart toilets. Somewhat intrigued, I googled for them and found that a good many of them cost several grand.

I remember thinking "who the hell are they advertising to?" No average person is going to spend that money on a smart toilet, and I'm sure even the upper middle class has better purchases to make in that price range.

Also I've noticed everything in commercials is so idyllic. A nice house in a beautiful setting, with a functional family. People just buying each other cars as Christmas gifts. It's kinda distressing to realize that most people, including myself will never have this (in part, because I dont think it exists)
Well, I know they exist, so if the former was a goal, that failed.
Yep, my feeling for the UK is that's one of the reasons they've not started down this line. The level of convictions for speeding on the motorway would jam the courts solid if they tried it and even a small proportion of people contested the offence.

You would like to think saner speed limits could be agreed as car brakes and safety have rather improved since the 70mph limit was imposed...
He's not comparing apples to apples. $0.28 per kWh is the most expensive way possible to recharge a Tesla, while $2.59 per gallon is NOT the most expensive way possible to refuel a Camry.
This is a decent possibility, yeah. Other companies keep old trademarks active that way too.

"Standard Oil" in the US is one still used like that. It was split up between different companies for different states, and the current companies still use "Standard"/"Esso"/etc trademarks in obscure places to keep them active even though it's not part of their regular branding. I believe Chevron has a single gas station in each state named "Standard" although everything else looks like a Chevron station. Exxon sometimes labels their diesel pumps "Esso Diesel". At one point BP owned it in some states; I think they sold marine fuel on Lake Erie as "SOHIO" (Standard Oil of Ohio) still despite rebranding SOHIO stations in the late 80s everywhere else in the state. (This was several years ago that I remember seeing this, some things may have changed since then.)

(Outside of the US I think ExxonMobil owns it everywhere, and still regularly brands stations as Esso.)
There's a very long tail of used cars. When you are talking CPO (certified pre-owned), you are talking 0-3 years old, with perhaps 50,000 miles or less (15k-30k probably the sweet spot). Sometimes these can be a good deal, sometimes you can get like 5-10% off the new price (which seems not worth it...to me)

The OP talking about a $5,000 car is talking about a 10-20 year old car with 100,000+ miles.

Both cars appeal to a different set of buyers. The CPO car effectively competes against new cars.

It's not uncommon at all today to see a car tick over 200,000+ miles, so buying a car for $5,000 with 100,000 miles on it can be seen as a pretty good deal. Usually people would recommend a good Japanese / Korean car (Toyota, Honda, etc.).
I would say that this test is especially vulnerable to error, because all the auxiliary hypotheses being tested. The problem here is known as the Duhem-Quine thesis:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duhem%E2%80%93Quine_thesis

> The Duhem–Quine thesis, also called the Duhem–Quine problem, after Pierre Duhem and Willard Van Orman Quine, is that it is impossible to test a scientific hypothesis in isolation, because an empirical test of the hypothesis requires one or more background assumptions (also called auxiliary assumptions or auxiliary hypotheses). In recent decades the set of associated assumptions supporting a thesis sometimes is called a bundle of hypotheses.

I’m not going to enumerate the auxiliary hypotheses being tested, but this is a particularly thorny problem in the philosophy of science, and it becomes less tractable as the problems you are solving become more complicated (like this one).

My personal feeling is that the philosophy of science, as a field, is still quite immature.

It just costs less to fuel in a narrow scenario (always charging on the road). For traveling salesmen, this might matter somewhat, although there aren’t that many of those left. The TCO of the Tesla is still lower. I’m not even a Tesla fanboy, but on a typical car, maintenance is ~$500 per year over the life of the car.

In a lot of industries there’s a huge conflict of interest as the auditee is also the company paying the auditors.

If the auditee loses a certification / accreditation, that’s also a loss of business for the auditor.
You don't need a Seeking Alpha article for that. You only need Tesla's own silly "with gas savings included" price estimator to understand it will take awhile to pay back vs a cheaper car.

Either that or, I don't know, common sense after looking at the gas pump every time you fill up and recognizing that $50 every week or two (or whatever) isn't a huge chunk of change, and likely won't be offset by buying an expensive new EV.
This is a great additional tip, I keep my papers in a compartment on the center console rather than in the locked glovebox with the 1911 for exactly this reason.
Does US class 1 require - "complaint handling unit, to raise and analyze every adverse effect on the field, and report to regulatory bodies the worst hazardous case in a limited time frame, be able to do recall and so on." - Don't know so I'm asking. I would assume any product with class 2 has these requirements. My assumption under class 1 is that you need to be able to determine you built the product to a predefined set of specifications.

I think the used car market will get destroyed. In a few years buying a used car older than a few years will probably be a quaint memory. That is unless manufacturers will get forced to open up their systems by law.

I wouldn't worry about it—though the subject being so close is pretty coincidental!

The format isn't uncommon, though. The rhythm of the first few lines is pretty strikingly similar and made me laugh a little.

I bought my 2003 mazda for 2300. Lets see how many years will it take for a Model 3's fuel savings to make up that...oh never. It will never happen. Nobody on this website needs to be told this, and this article is just another battleground in a completely pointless debate between tesla lovers and haters. It is stupid and it demeans hacker news. So do electrek.co articles, although their average quality does appear to be significantly higher than this site.
"Toyota Camry cheaper to fuel than a Tesla Model 3", only under the unrealistic assumptions I mentioned above.
And like almost every similar article, it fails to take into account the externalized cost of carbon.
The headline was the controversial bit. The bit at the end is the "water is wet" news that a more expensive to purchase car is in fact more expensive to purchase. If you've ever added up your fuel costs for a year, this conclusion is self-evident.
We changed the URL from https://github.com/vesoft-inc/nebula to the project page.
And I think it's safe to say that the vast majority of Tesla owners today are not living in apartments and parking on the street.

It's pretty hit or miss. I went to community college, and some classes were amazing others were a complete joke.
Are the higher maintenance costs of projects offset by the lower costs of all other services -- additional roads, land, sewer pipes, telephone poles, electrical lines, etc?

My understanding is that projects are overall very efficient. I'm aware that they cost more per unit than a rural home in the middle of nowhere, both up-front and on-going. But a rural home in the middle of nowhere costs a fortune in services paid for with taxes, on-going.
I disagree on any comparison where the cost difference between the vehicles is one of the big arguments.

This same argument applied to the Prius, but it completely ignores how the majority of people actually buy cars. Very few people will cross shop these cars, regardless of cost savings, because they were already planning on buying a 35k+ car. So if they start looking towards other cars, it will almost certainly be other cars in that price range.

Taken to an extreme I can compare the Tesla with a electric moped, but that doesn’t benefit anyone. The model 3 is targeting the entry level Bmw, Mercedes, Audi crowd, the high end American sedan crowd, and the low-mid Asian luxury sedans. Compare against those cars as that’s what the perspective buyers are comparing against.

If Tesla makes a truly budget sedan in the 20k range, then it’s a different comparison.
In java I like using variable shadowing in constructors, that is, I write something like:

public SomeObject(String aField) {
this.aField = aField;
}

I think this promotes clarity for the user of the code, although you can possibly make the mistake of writing

aField = aField;

but if you declare aField as final, the compiler will give you an error if you make that mistake.
> The headline is the clickbaity and misleading part.

It really isn't misleading. They demonstrate that it takes a 20-year service life for Tesla Model 3 owners to recover their expense when compared to Toyota Camry owners of they charged at hime, and demonstrated that the problem would be worse if they used superchargers.

Thus they covered both extreme cases, which bound any real-world example, and showed that the Camry would be cheaper even when compared with Tesla's most favourable scenario.
They did, when they were the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and controlled Venezia and the Dalmatian coast.
They're publicly well known, and as far as I'm aware they don't have any rules against telling people you're a member. Many of their temples/lodges/whatever you want to call them are identified somewhere on the facade (Freemasons' Hall in Edinburgh for example is available for hire as an event space).

However, what they do and talk about within the lodge is secret.
You have not worked on bad enough code base.

Duplication is a problem as the different implementations inevitably drift and get repeated bugs, but simple reduplication results in the rather known problem of RavioliCode() of thousands low cohesion functions. Which ends up unreadable thus bug prone and slow to develop.

Use of the right patterns or rather paradigms reduces amount of code in general, thus reducing duplication.

Wrong patterns are hard to actually change especially on change averse projects. The more widely used the wrong design is, the harder it is to change as the hacks on it multiply.
Even worse if the wrong patterns (not code) are duplicated.

These require in depth rewrites to which bosses are usually allergic, which are very hard to pull off on bigger teams too. Incredibly hard to coordinate.

> It would help if Khronos would promote an API for people who “just want to draw stuff”

Would it?

What you really want is a stable API to talk to the hardware. It doesn't really matter if the API is nigh unusable, as long as it is stable. Only when such stability is reached, can we reliably build stuff on top of it. Including a "just draw stuff" engine.

We could for instance re-implement Flash on top of Vulkan. Such a thing wouldn't need a standard body to get done and be usable by a wide range of people. (Though in this particular case, we'd likely have some standard body involved anyway, since there's already so much Flash code out there.)
I find this analysis hard to take seriously. The majority of Tesla owners aren't average Americans, most have homes.

Secondly Tesla has positioned itself as a luxury car manufacturer, a better comparison would be the Lexus ES Hybrid($42k base) vs the model 3($39k base), Or comparing the Camry hybrid ($28k base) to a Chevrolet Bolt($37k base), or even the Nissan Leaf EV ($29k before tax credit, $22k after)

I do however agree the average American who lives in an apartment isn't getting the best deal with a full EV at the moment. I'd be pushing for PHEV vehicles like the Volt or Prius Prime to those who want to be able to charge but don't always have the opportunity.
I have to admit, I’m quite impressed by the performance of the Camry Hybrid here!

In the long run, I suspect gas price will keep going up. I live in Los Angeles and pay around $4/gallon, at this rate it will become extremely hard for gasoline vehicles to compete against electric vehicles.
I love the spacing-related ligatures. Having said that, I have mostly the same complains @crazygringo has. I'll continue to use my old 3270 font. It's clean and easy to read and, best of all, reminds me of a more civilized age.
I hope you’re not implying the old wives tale about Apple nit allowing apps that compete with it on the store. If so, there are plenty of existence proofs that that isn’t true.
The headline is "cheaper to fuel", and under the realistic assumption of paying home utility rates it's not. It doesn't pay back fast enough to make up for the price difference, but that's a very different claim.
Glad you read all the way to the third bullet point, but next time why not go for four?
TL;DR: Calculated using the national average fuel cost and double the national average electric costs.
Serifs are easier to read the more pixels you have to work with. For a printed book at 3,000+ DPI, serifs are fine (though it's still possible to overdo them!). For a high-res monitor, microserifs like the ones Consolas uses can help if your text is not too small. This font was designed for small sizes, where anything except the cleanest lines will simply cause blurriness.
Garage, fine. How many car ports have electrical power?
this still will blowwww your mind man.. hehe..
Of course the Tesla costs more? Why is the $10k difference even a matter, it should just be about the fuel. That part seems to indict this article is biased.
