The problem with Fair Vote and the CGP Grey videos, while I like them for an introduction to the subject, both have two very misleading points.

1) When they say RCV they specifically mean Instant Runoff Voting (IRV). There are many other, and better, RCV methods.

2) They overclaim IRV's ability to solve the spoiler effect (see my other comment for links). While other RCV methods have strong resistance to spoiler effects, IRV has a weak resistance. CGP actually hints to this when he talks about that IRV doesn't prevent a trend towards two party systems.
It would have been nice to have a more proactive response in the original discussion on this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12092188
The Ford F-150 has been America’s top selling car (not just truck) for a long time. So lots and lots and lots of Americans buy pickup trucks.
The article mentions most of these points and provides some compelling reasons why one might prefer an integrated system. I'd certainly rather have one powered by the truck's engine. It's vastly more fuel-efficient, quieter, and vastly more environmentally-sound than a loud-ass 2-stroke portable generator could ever hope to be, and if you're the kind of working person who'd benefit from this, it's a godsend.
Encryption that can only be unlocked by the "good guys" is fundamentally not how encryption works.

makes sense, sorry I missed it.
If you want a base of operation, a SUV is not what you're looking for. An expedition vehicle is. That's literally what they're built and set up for.

A "supercarrier" would be a lorry-sized one e.g. a monster like an EX70-HDQ[0]. A smaller BOO would be something like a maximog or a rally vehicle. There are also conversions for SUV-size chassis replacing the entire back half.

If you drive through suburbia, you'll probably find one in every other driveway. Very few of them are being used regularly for anything that requires a truck.
It looks like the plugs are on the left side of the bed, and the exhaust is angled to the right:

So you want to dig a moat?
Agreed.
Making encryption the boogeyman is the wrong way, too broad. Ensuring the easily accessible comm channels are accessible to law enforcement, seems like an OK compromise. What those channels are should be the focus of the discussion imo.
Maybe on the west coast? Here where I live on the east coast there's plenty of high quality lagers, pilsners, and brown ales.
U.S. Forces Intel to Pause Shipments to Leading Server Maker
hybrid trucks get upgraded to 2.4 kW or, optionally, a massive 7.2 kW of power, made possible by the hybrid's 48-volt lithium-ion battery pack.

Would other hybrids be able to have a similar feature? Even a Prius or Ford Escape?
I think Tup uses FUSE rather than strace (which is why it doesn't track external dependencies, and requires relative paths for all internal files), but I might be wrong.
Totally thought the same thing. I would love tying this to a breakout generator fuse box for the house. Even the 2.2 kW is enough to power the house for emergency reasons. The nice thing is that you don't have to worry (as much) about someone stealing your car instead of a generator in emergency situations.

Useful service, congrats on the launch. Do 4 character domains basically never drop or why is the minimum length 5?
Things like Carfax discourage it as well. They have partnerships with oil change (and similar) services that record the mileage and date. Rolling back becomes obvious.
> That's how public broadcasting works.

That’s how public broadcasting works in the US. A number of other countries manage to have public broadcasting without any private advertisements or sponsorship. (For example, Australia’s ABC.)
I abandon carts more often than not. Pretty much for the same reason as the bot: I wanna know how much I'm actually getting charged with taxes, shipping and coupons. I'll do similar orders on multiple stores, and only finalize the best deal if I'm satisfied with it. Sometimes I just "walk away" because nobody's selling at my pricepoint.

Is this rude? I really don't care.
Apple tells app devs to use IPv6 as it's 1.4 times faster than IPv4
Yes, but that's the whole point: math is incredibly information dense. I'm trying to avoid that. Math shouldn't be hard - some concepts are incredibly easy to grasp, but the way that they're taught makes me shudder. It's like seeing code with one letter variable names -written by someone who was scared of losing their job. If you have a way of coming up with an intuitive way of conveying the concepts using geometric algebra, let me know, and I'll be happy to include it in the guide though!
The force curve precluded single-certification without MCAS, but I haven't seen any claim that it would not be certified at all. 'Stable' is the critical term, and is loosely defined.

In reality, the force curves always deviate from the ideal, save in fly-by-wire designs. There are two different issues at play:

The first is a force curve that deviates so much that it becomes unintuitive or unmanageable to fly. This would not be acceptable, but I have not seen someone claim the 737 MAX would be characterized this way.

The second is whether the force curves of the older 737s matched the MAX closely enough. These pilots are expecting a certain behavior, and under single certification, could be going back and forth between these models often. Even small differences in handling between these could be jarring and lead to bad stick inputs.

This is a much more demanding requirement because of the context; in the first case, a pilot is making one transition to a new aircraft that they expect will be different from what they flew before. In the second, they are switching between aircraft often, perhaps after long stretches of becoming accustomed to one model or the other. They must then constantly be aware of these differences and continually adjust for them, a situation ripe for error.

My understanding is that the 737Max flies kinda like a 757 without MCAS. It's not a big deal.

If you didn't believe in free will at all, why are you trying to convince me of anything?
This is the truth. They also aren’t the same batch to batch.

Part of what makes the most sought after beers so good is that you can sometimes drink them the very day they were canned.
Yeah, this kinda makes me want an F-150. Though I'd really like a more conventional SUV form factor with this generator in it. I generally keep my car stocked with a tool bag, emergency supplies, etc. such that in most cases, if I'm in proximity to my car, I have everything I might need. Add a generator and I'm golden.
That's a very bold claim. We already have warrant-proof toilets for flushing drugs down. Why do you think crypto should be illegal because old-technology warrants don't work very easily with it?

We've had warrant-proof encryption for a long time now in our society (at least 20 years?).

I'm guessing that they use one or more third parties that do indeed scrape Google results but provide plausible deniability in the process. And I'd look very closely at the employment histories of principals at those nominal "third" parties. It's not that uncommon in this industry to find companies with exactly one customer, staffed entirely by ex-employees of that one customer.
At the point where you're actively polluting google search results as if you had such a scraping program, is this a meaningful distinction to make for anyone other than Google's TOS compliance team?
Well, when the truly bad weather hits, its very nice to have an actual 4x4 truck. They are very useful vehicles. I would have killed in high school (well, in college too) for a truck with a generator. So many times helping a buddy would have gone a whole lot easier. Never mind pulling people out of the ditch. Going to rent one is not a realistic option in many parts of the country.
I'd like to watch these and appreciate you've put a decent chunk of work into the content.

But...as a desktop user the video player only has two screen sizes...too small to be readable and full screen which is pretty useless because I like to multitask. Could I suggest offering different sized embedded players, or something that resizes with the browser window?

As someone that just wants a refreshing but quality lager there's nothing for me in this current wave. It's all group think. IPAs and Imperial Stouts everywhere. To the extent that you will find entire categories of beer on beer rating sites with nothing above a 4/5 in that category due to the groupthink that says more flavor = higher ratings. Refreshing, crisp and other such metrics don't count right now due to the current fashion. Overpowering flavor is what we judge beer on.

This frustrates me to no end. IRV has a 6% improvement of VSE over plurality. But STAR and RP have 15% improvements. Not only that, but both are strongly resistant to spoiler effects and the trend to two coalitions dominance (in the States that's the two party system, outside the states that's two major parties being the dominant ruler over their coalitions).

The conspiracy theorist in me thinks it is because IRV doesn't effectively change things. The realist in me thinks it is just trendy.

For others: See me other comment (it is large, you can't miss it) explaining these topics in more detail (with links!)

Yes and no. A lot of what I'm saying is directly from the tutorial she repeatedly suggested he watch. Because I took the time to watch it, because that's the reasonable thing to do when someone suggests that you aren't fully informed on a subject and suggests a resource to improve your understanding.

Many people buy trucks. I imagine for some it’s the ground clearance, others the actual utility, others the looks, etc. There’s the fleet buyers too. They do make sense, too, if you live anywhere rural or with roads that aren’t paved or get weather and aren’t well maintained. Near me, trucks possibly outnumber cars for as far as the eye can see.

They fit a niche. I saw plenty of trucks and other big vehicles driving around a city of greater than 2 million people.
No, they aren't. That's the whole point. This idea that high level languages are slow is a pernicious myth.

However for engine life what you want to know is hours under heavy load and perhaps total revolutions.

I thought that much of the wear on an engine is load related, and non-linear, such that hours idling at low revs is utterly different from high revs at high power.

The odo reading is useful as an indication of wear on the drivetrain and suspension etcetera.

Hours is useful on a tractor/truck/boat because the engine is normally under load for a majority of the hours.

Digital maintenance logs

Seriously, how useful would that be? A simple onboard SQLite database (or even text file) you can add stuff to via a phone app. That way, when someone asks "when was the last time this car had an oil change?" you can simply check the logs. You can check when your wiper blades were last replaced, etc. If it's standard enough, Jiffy Lube can update it with whatever work they did.

For now I just settle for a paper logbook in the glove compartment...

Very clever to use the same pinout as the PCIe "flexible risers" that already use USB cables, so only the chip replacement is necessary.
A lot of folks. Anyone who is in construction and has to work on a house being built usually relies on a gas powered generator or shares plugs with the rest of the trades off the post in the yard. It's why cordless tools became popular, but unlike corded tools they sometimes lack the power required for the job.

Can you imagine having this vehicle in an emergency where there is no power. It could power a refrigerator or a small space heater if necessary. It could help out camping for sure.

Pickup trucks are no longer just work or farmer trucks. They are as luxurious as a high end Lexus with just as much room or more. My brother has an F150 and it is just as comfortable as my wife's Lexus ES350 with a better view out the windshield. The gas mileage is pretty good these days also.
Is there a good explanation why pick up trucks are so popular in the US, but no in Europe? Coming from Europe I've always wondered this and only ever have gotten reasons that would be valid in Europe as well. Uses cases of farmers and construction workers should be largely identical. Yet in Europe these get covered by tractors and vans. For farmers I wonder if the larger areas in the US make the difference.
Speaking of this. Do someone here knows any way to open a DSO in Linux not by passing the path, but by using a file descriptor or fd?

I know FreeBSD has such a call, but not Linux, and the only place i've found this was an implementation in Android, in its specialized linker that will manage to do this, but by meddling directly with the elf headers within the file.

Why i cant use the one who just uses the path? I want to load from memory (without resorting to create the file in temp fs), and for this i would use the memfd_create().

Anyway, i just want to know if there are any way to do this in Linux without having to "manually" do this by using libelf, DT_HASH, etc..

(Also in case i need to resort to elf, i bet i will be forced to do dependency resolution by hand, which will be pretty nasty just to be able to have this feature)
In general, yeah, but in this case it was specified that it's a recruiter filter. So it's like responding to someone's post that says `myusername [atsign] mydomain [dot] com` with the syntactically easier to harvest version of the email. Obviously undermining someone's explicit privacy preferences. Not unlawful but just selfish.
Duty cycle isn't mentioned. I'm assuming 7.2Kw would be peak output rather than continuous until Ford says otherwise.

I will say, inotify is one of the best designed kernel facilities, it avoid so many of the pitfalls of other facilities used for the same task, and is generally easier to use. I wonder if any BSDs plan to implement it, outside of Linux ABI layers.
Really interested to learn those two terms - "market maker", "liquidity provider". I think I kinda understand the second one (traders who are bringing money from outside the market). Does anyone know where I can read more about this kind of thing?
