It's honestly not a surprise. The European market favor smaller car way more than the American one. You just have to see the sheer number of 206, Twingo & Clio on the road.

I still see some Tesla, but usually it is a status symbol, people who just want an electric car usually go for the Nissan Leaf or the Renault Zoe.
Yes, but Facebook or Twitter are not publishers, they are platforms. You can sue your local newspaper if it publishes defamatory information, but you can't sue Facebook and other online services on these grounds because they enjoy Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act; see [1] for a good explanation.

I can understand someone leasing the entire car, battery included.

And I can understand someone buying a car outright.

What I can't understand is why someone would want to buy a car outright, but still end up paying a lease on the battery. To me, that doesn't have the benefits of either option.

Filtering is a trivial operation and I would expect the g forces felt by sledders to be sustained for the better part of a second.

These challenger banks are also currently operating in relative niches. Yes Monzo has a million bank accounts, but in terms of their product offering, it isn't close to the breadth of your traditional "High Street" bank. As their product offering expands, their compliance requirements will become a lot more complex, and will lead to more compliance personnel being hired. They have also yet to experience a massive overhaul to the compliance requirements of their existing systems. I'm sure they are better placed to handle it than a traditional bank but it won't be easy.

That is probably because of the price, it is the cheapest of them all. I know many people that bought EVs already and the one thing they have in common is vast disposable income or they got it as a company car.

I have a car which I seldom use because I am located in a city and only use it to visit family or some groceries. Did cost 2000€ and has a life expectancy of around 5-8 years. It can go from A to B. I have no parking spot so I would never buy a new car. Wouldn't take a month to get bumps in it.

EVs need to do good on used car markets, otherwise they will remain a curiosity for the nearer future. But of course the cost for the battery life cycle could pose a significant problem. Renault offers battery leasing, which means people don't need to be afraid of it failing after a few years or very cold weather.

For a Zoe, I would still have to pay 30,000€. Convince me to spend 28,000€ more on a car. It isn't a status symbol for me, times have changed, I need to go from A to B.
My Android phone is now giving me notification of an updated version of Garmin Connect and I am feeling reluctant to install. Does anyone know, is there any way to verify that the changes are safe ? (Changelog, audit, integrity check) does Google Play verify an update in a case like this? I don't know how this works

In a scenario where Garmin is completely compromised, is it unthinkable that the attacker could also distribute malicious updates to millions of devices ?

The more we have immigrants stocking supermarket shelves and constructing infrastructure the more we can focus our high end R&D on things like biotech, medicine, space, and the like. That’s economics; comparative advantage is real.

Ansible user Jinja templating. Might as well say Jinja + Jinja + Helm.

Helm uses Go templates which are awesome. It is what Hugo is built off. The main issue is that you still have to manage indentation with Helm. YAML is easier to read than JSON and TOML. If you don't like it, then what do you suggest is better?

Amazon being able to cut deals with the delivery companies themselves seems... fine? Like I'm not in the habit of advocating things be easier for giant corporations, but it's whatever.

However, giving them a better deal than a regular citizen with a nationalized service is just bullshit.

I wouldn’t say in person communication is frictionless for everyone.

There are a lot of people who do not communicate at their best in person and both feel and represent themselves better in writing or with something of a “barrier” (for lack of a better word).

I generally disagree with this and most, if not all other, blanket statements.

I think, and hope, that the good that can come out of this isn’t some absolute decision over whether we have offices or not, but that we become yet more open and recognizing of differences and nuances. That kind of thing always seems to be a long, argumentative road, however.

It has been a while since I have seen that one, but if I recall the two main points were

1 - Forced to save billions over a short period of time for retirements benefits.
2 - Inability to set their own prices, like a business would.

The extra business from Amazon should have been a massive boon to USPS. But it seems the ridiculously low rate they got into, plus the couple factors above (and I am sure many others - like being required to maintain rural routes at a loss) has put them in a bad situation.

It is 'brand dilution' for DHL Express for sure.

But hey, how can the consumer know? It is yellow and red and says 'DHL'.

This I think is the interesting part of the news.
While I don't disagree with most of what you said, I still think there are too many people. I think you are only looking at the US. Look at the conditions that people live in around the world, especially in crowded cities in places like China. The world can support more people if it has to, but the estimates I've seen range from supporting 8 billion to 11 billion people. The UN is estimating that the population will peak around 2050-2060 with 11.5 billion people.

The real question is sustainability. Our economies are based on consumption, contain a lot waste/pollution,
and unevenly distribute resources. The areas most likely to grow (third world areas) are also have the least environmental laws or enforcement.

Why do people who are financially independent or pay the legal minimum in taxes need to go? To me, it sounds like it would be better to fix the tax system, the welfare systems, and the conditions that trap people in poverty.

Also, how do you suggest we just grow more food? Land suitable for growing food is shrinking worldwide. It is highly unlikely that we will "need more people growing food", since the trend we are seeing is for larger mechanized and automated monoculture farms replacing small farms.

I also don't see access to birth control being the main goal. It is certainly a big goal in some countries along with changing cultural perceptions of using it, like what has/is happening in India. But there will be people in developed societies that have many kids too. I see plenty of people who have large families and seem to grow them further regardless of their financial situation even if they have access to birth control.

Many people have Zoe-sized cars as their main car. People rarely do cross-country trips. I'm not sure I would buy an EV at all if I were planning Belgium to South of France trips.

But even as a second car, the segment Zoe caters for is exactly the best one for EV in Europe, IMHO.

It seems to me that at the moment Teslas are for wealthy people who want to display "Tesla cool" more than a practical choice.

I don't think there will be many who decided to buy a Zoe because a Tesla wasn't available. It's the price.

I doubt there is much overlap with the ID3 too. The cheapest model will cost you two Zoes.

What's absolutely incredibly frustrating is that it's absurdly common to ignore SSH fingerprints even if they're staring you in the face. I just spun up a Fedora 32 cloud image on RamNode over the weekend and the default image oh-so-helpfully displays the SSH fingerprints as part of the MOTD so you can verify it just looking at the login prompt on console. Except apparently the script that generates that runs before the SSH keys are regenerated on the first boot of the image, so the fingerprints displayed don't match the keys on disk. Either no one else has noticed this bug yet or nobody has been bothered enough to fix it.

There is a solution though, SSHFP records for the host. I just set them up after catching that issue just because of how frustrating blindly trusting on first use is. Now I can SSH to my servers even without anything for them being in known_hosts and it checks for SSHFP records and verifies the fingerprint and DNSSEC protects the SSHFP records.
It's actually surprisingly hard to buy a leaf here - Nissan isn't a popular brand. Renaults are everywhere though - Clio is one of the most popular cars outside DACH region and Zoe being is its electric counterpart.

That's not what OP is arguing. He appears to be arguing that technological solutions should not be tried in cases where immigration can solve the problem.

If Japan can automate many of these things they will end up being leagues ahead of those who solved it with immigration and will end up selling the solutions to the rest of the world.

Renault no longer offers “battery lease” Zoes:

I fully agree that it is unfair to creators that they cannot reasonably generate income from CLI apps. Still, I am unconvinced that the model you are proposing could gain viable traction.

It might be that I am in a sysadmin bubble here, but I just think that the "paid store" model conflicts with how people use CLI software.

For example, I suppose even the MacOS developers you mentioned would be interested in running e.g. `jq` on remote servers, virtual machines, docker, ... How could good UX possibly be achieved here? If you lock your hypothetical store down even a little bit, users now have to do complicated secrets management. If you don't and simply hope that everyone actually pays, you might as well just ask for donations.
"Cows" can be a general term. (Do you suppose cowboys only ever dealt with female cattle?)

The Oxford English Dictionary specifically recognises this sense of "cows" (particularly in a U.S. context), complete with quotations that are very similar to the usage in this article:

> c. plural. Cattle. U.S.

> 1869 Overland Monthly Aug. 127/1 The ‘cow-whip’..is used only in driving the herd, which is often called ‘the cows’.

> 1930 W. M. Raine & W. C. Barnes Cattle 60 Cows, as all cattle were called regardless of age and sex, were an investment which traveled on the hoof.
Double quotes existed before as well. + and " had different meanings but were combined into one.

And yes, it was around that time that search quality took a nose dive for me.

The experience is a few years old now but I spent a year in college running Firefox on a celeron netbook with just the EFI framebuffer (anything else would crash on boot) and it was totally usable unless you opened google sheets. On my ryzen desktop that I built during the lockdown (after baking some bread heh) it’s very snappy. IME chrome (on GNU/Linux anyway) is usually much worse than Firefox unless you’re in the habit of opening hundreds (at least) of tabs.
I think it is very weird that you compare less restrictive immigration policies to slavery. Slavery takes away people's freedom. Less restrictive immigration policies grant people more freedom than they already had. People can decide for themselves if they want to immigrate.

It is also weird how you call it racially segregated when it is possible for white Americans to immigrate to India and obtain an Indian citizenship and then have trouble going back to the US.

The closest thing we have to slavery is civil wars where prisoners of war are being forced on overloaded boats that are heading toward Europe. These people probably suffer from the same pain that African American slaves have suffered from but they are not slaves, they are refugees and rejecting them will just result in more suffering, not less. You can call this human importation but it was not initiated by the receiving nations which were actually tightening their borders.

Except for bailouts - like the one currently being proposed - USPS is self-funded and does not receive money from taxes. One problem is that USPS is meant to be a service (congress has to approve rate increases), but it's treated like a business. This wouldn't be such an issue if people weren't trying to sabotage it so that they could privatize it.

I've heard the deal with Amazon is bad, and the new Postmaster General is trying to renegotiate it.

In my experience, no Priority or First Class packages were delayed in favor of Amazon packages, but the flood of Amazon packages did overburden the system causing some delays. From what I understand, USPS is receiving more Amazon, because more people are shopping online (Covid) and because Amazon is (was?) dealing with a labor dispute. A couple weeks back my station got absolutely hammered - received about triple the typical Amazon volume on back-to-back days. The clerks have to sort each package to the appropriate routes, and then the carriers have to deliver all those packages. As they're out delivering, they're picking up packages to bring back to the station, and those are the packages that were subject to delays.

In general, everything goes out every day, and even if one package is left behind, someone has to drive that package to the plant. From a business standpoint, this doesn't make a lot of sense, but it's part of the service culture at USPS, and clerks and carriers are horrified and mortified to hold up mail, which is why you see complaints like the one from the carrier in the article.

At the same time, USPS was rolling out some new policies, and they're missing a lot of people due to Covid, so a lot of factors converged to make the situation difficult. But, at my station, no mail has been delayed for weeks. I can't speak for the plants, but the vast majority of Amazon packages are delivered to the stations as drop shipments, so if the plants are having issues with volume, it's not because of Amazon.

During Covid, letters and flats had been down in volume (businesses being closed = less advertising) by somewhere between 25% and 40%, but they appear to be back to normal, and parcels had been up something like 60% overall.

I think that's most of the pertinent information. But, I'll say that this is typically the time of year where many USPS employees exhale a bit. The overtime dwindles, and the pace slows. Instead, much of this has felt like Christmas - anyone on the OT list and any non-career employees are working lots of hours to keep up with demand, and sometimes they're even compelling people not on the OT list to work OT. So, it feels like the holiday season never stopped, and we're all pretty exhausted. Of course, we feel lucky to have been able to work through the pandemic, but it's taken its toll, as well.
Sure, go ahead and set something up!

There's nothing specific about tmux that makes it hard to know where you are, but it does let you keep any number of terminals open on one screen, which is super-helpful, but requires a lot of mental overhead to keep track of where everything is.

Financial capitalism where everything needs to be consolidated, bundled and sold as an investment vehicle seems like a pretty modern invention.

To go to an extreme, look at It's a Wonderful Life. Something like a community bank in the early 20th century was not run aggressively for the sole benefit of shareholders, there was a notion of community involvement. If anything financialization since the 70s has created the fiction that corporations are soulless machines designed to optimize profits at the expense of all others.
Plus at the macro level, most economies are consumption driven and rely on population as a major driver of growth.

I disagree with subsidizing college more that it is already. There are numerous scholarships available to promising students. Also, the government has been directly and indirectly funding colleges through grants and easy to get student loans. The problem with this is people going to college who might not be able to perform at that level, or who are unable to find a job that pays high enough after graduation. There is research that shows that some minority groups tend to pick careers in lower paying fields because they want to make a social impact (think teaching, social work, etc), so not everyone's goal is to maximize profit. There are plenty of trades that one can make more money working in, such as diesel-electric mechanic, welder, auto mechanic, aviation mechanic, etc.
