How did you get that idea?

This is what an Electron app looks like:

$ ls Atom.app/Contents/Frameworks
Electron Framework.framework
other stuff...

You might also find a bunch of js files lying around:

$ find Atom.app -name *.js
Atom.app/Contents/Resources/app/apm/node_modules/chainsaw/index.js
Atom.app/Contents/Resources/app/apm/node_modules/fs-constants/index.js
Atom.app/Contents/Resources/app/apm/node_modules/fs-constants/browser.js
very long list...

Whereas these are the frameworks Zoom ships with:

$ ls zoom.us.app/Contents/Frameworks/
CptHost.app asproxy.framework nydus.framework zMacRes.bundle
Scintilla.framework caphost.app protobuf.framework zMacResRetina.bundle
Transcode.app cmmlib.framework ssb_sdk.bundle zSIPCallUI.bundle
ZCommonUI.framework curl64.framework tp.framework zSIPSDK.bundle
ZMScreenshot.app faac.bundle util.framework zSipCallApp.bundle

annoter.bundle libz.dylib zChatApp.bundle zlt.bundle
aomagent.bundle mcm.bundle zChatUI.bundle zmLoader.bundle
aomhost.app mphost.app zData.bundle zmb.bundle

Instead of Javascript files there are tons of Interface Builder files in the bundle:

Less than zero. They go out of their way to keep people from installing apps from anything but their own App Store.
True, but the i3 is not made of Aluminum, but composites which will have to be glued together in such way as not to compromise structural integrity. Also, the insurance will have that factored in and you should always consider it as part of the price of the car.

Where does an RV fit into your taxonomy?

If you have stateful containers where changes persist across restarts of the container, then I think you can't really call them containers anymore. Just like if you have VMs with read-only filesystem images generated by the CI/CD pipeline, it's not unreasonable to describe them as container-like. Once you throw in containers with a stateful filesystem or a VM with a read-only filesystem into the mix, then 'container' is no longer a good description of what's going on, and more precise terms need to be used, especially as you get into more esoteric technologies like OpenVZ/Virtuozzo, which uses kernel features, and not virtualization, to provide isolation, but it's containers are not the same as Docker's.

We could come to an agreement of the definition of container, but that wouldn't even use useful outside this thead, so maybe it's more useful to enumerate where the specific technology is and isn't important. The ops team cares about how the thing needs to be managed, and less so how it goes about achieving isolation. However, the exactly technology in use is of critical importance to the security team. (Those may be the same people.) Developers, on the third hand, ideally don't even know that containers are in use, the system is abstracted away from them so they can worry about business logic and UX matters, and not need to worry about how to upgrade the fleet to have the latest version of the openssl libraries/whatever.

Considering the state of Lebanon before this, total incompetence would not come as any sort of surprise.
A 2017 article is very out of date. The Model 3 rear subframe is cast aluminum: https://insideevs.com/news/408645/tesla-model-y-mega-casting...

Which is certainly a safety critical structural element.

Additionally, glues are not stronger than aluminum. I don't know if you're thinking of a composite resin (eg glass fiber), but normal adhesives are weaker even than pure aluminum, which is ~5x weaker than all the commonly used (copper age-hardening) alloys of aluminum.
The "weld is stronger than the base metal" argument is often repeated on the internet, but it's overly simplistic. Welded joints don't usually fail at the seam (a.k.a the weld). Instead, they fail near the seam where the base metal has been stressed due to thermal expansion/contraction and heat treating. It is correct that when done properly, everything should be fine, but I wouldn't trust the vast majority of body shops to have access to welders who would do it "properly."
I would be fearful of polls considering the 2016 presidential election. Plus, there's more than just the president and your state rep. Local positions like judges, DAs, etc are also important. In some sense probably more importany than federal politics.
>>> I've made mayonnaise by hand and by hand mixer.

Strongly disagree !!! :-) Although I'm a pretty good cook, I fail the mayonnaise 9 times out of 10. So my wife does it. And I can assure you she does that in a short and super quiet way, all by hand. Just softness. It's been like that for years and I'm stall amazed.

Oh and when she bakes, I have a lot of pride in mixing everything by hand : Chantilly, egg yolks and sugar, anything and butter, etc. The harder the better. Dunno why I like to do that. I guess it's a kind of micro sport :-)

Sure, body-on-frame cars (before the early 1960s) were easy to weld back into shape.

With unibody cars, that doesn't work anymore. Body shops have frame racks to pull steel cars back into shape. That works if the car isn't too bent and your standards aren't too high.

Aluminum unibodies don't respond well to bending so yes... If the frame is tweaked enough to screw up the wheel track, that's probably the end of the car. Maybe find a flood car with a good frame and swap everything over. This is true whether the car's body is a single casting or built up by welding 70 pieces together.
There's a world of difference between "we will notice it" and "we have to be worried about it".

Betelgeuse will explode in a faint Type II-P supernova, which is the least dangerous type. The thing to really be worried about with supernova are gamma ray bursts, which require low metallicity stars of at least 120 solar masses. Betelgeuse is a high metallicity star with about 15 solar masses. So it's nowhere even in the ballpark of producing a gamma ray burst.

Look at this graph:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5a/Comparat...

Betelgeuse will be the blue line that peaks the lowest and plateaus out. (the P is Type II-P stands for "plateau") This is a logarithmic plot, so the brightest supernova are like 40 times as bright as Betelgeuse's supernova will be. Furthermore, this is just visual light; in terms of gamma rays, while normal supernova are bright in gamma rays, gamma ray bursts are many orders of magnitude brighter.

When Betelgeuse goes supernova, no species will go extinct, no crops will fail, no uptick in cancer will happen. It might dork up some migration patterns and mess with particularly precarious food chains, but the effects will be minor, especially compared to the catastrophic damage humanity is doing to the environment.
It is a business + an insurance business. They are highly incentivized to drive down costs and have proven that constantly.
Has fishing ever struck anyone else as plain weird.

Imagine we farmed cattle by flying about in Zepplins, lowering giant nylon nets and dragging across the ground.

Fish Farming seems more sustainable. Maybe less economic but then perhaps just don't eat the fish if we cannot do it economically.
AFAIK sale-based pricing is about squeezing consumer surplus, as described by Joel Spolsky [0].

You need to understand Elon to understand that. He talks ton about sustainability. But what he means by that, is sustaining lifestyle of rich people, while feeling good about themselves.

He's actively against public transport (which is by far most ecological), pursuing dreams of living on Mars (which is unpractical on so many levels, that if it'll be ever complete, it'll be trip of lifetime to fifthly rich people), building expensive toy cars (car that does 0-60 in less than 6s? who would even want that?) and many more.

Agree. If you think of a country that can dethrone the US, its really only one player, China. The other countries (Germany, Japan, Russia) are very far behind in terms of military might, commerce, and also population. Given the US also has considerable amounts of land/resources(oil, minerals, timber, farming land) and a lions share of the worlds largest companies(Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Chevron, Wal-Mart, Google, Intel, P&G, Exxon to name some) its hard to say the US is going anywhere anytime soon. I feel like a lot of this negativity right now is based on the covid-19 pandemic which btw the whole world is suffering not just the US. Think things are bad in the US? at least it didn't suffer a 20% drop in GDP like the UK did [1], sure the US has the most cases, but looking at mortality the US is roughly middle of the pack at 3.2% [2]

The most important thing I learned from studying engineering ethics/failure analysis is that most major failures are caused by an accumulation of tiny failures (of both process and material) that, while not individually disastrous, collaborate to cause enormous damage. The "academic" engineering failures (Challenger explosion, Tacoma Narrows Bridge, Therac-25) all had that in common, as did the 747-MAX issue and this.
Not directly for sure, and as another HNer wrote there's some Darwin involved.
I didn't know there had been an investigation for possible murder, so thanks to all HNers who pointed it out. It seems however from the latest articles I could find that the murder suspicion has been dismissed and the man death ruled as an accident. What however is strange is that the couple worked both at John Deere, and the man was an engineer with a high degree of education, which doesn't seem that compatible with the level of stupidity needed to drink a fish tank cleaner.

Unrelated, but looking around i found that the two once sued their employer for sex and age discrimination against the wife.

This is a little reminder that Tesla isn't just about battery tech/ electrification. They have a lot of engineering talent pushing most all aspects of the auto industry forward. Companies like Lucid and Rivian can nail a lot of the basics, but Tesla is pushing hard on all fronts. Likewise GM, Ford, and Chrysler are going to have trouble attracting engineering and management talent. VW, Honda, and Toyota are Tesla's big competitors. Them and perhaps on the other end of the spectrum, Chinese manufacturers who crank out tiny, super cheap cars more people can afford. Though in the US those don't seem to take hold.
Great book. No "get rich quick" advice, just actionable advice which has worked well for Catalin in such a short time!
Indeed, the trades people who are my age, mid 50's, tend to be broken and hobbling. It might work in a country with a strong safety net, retirement system, and health care system, otherwise forget it. Trades people have a double whammy of working in a weak-labor country to begin with, and then having to work for typically small family owned businesses that skirt the labor laws and offer no career opportunities for non family members.

But the trades also include indoor trades such as medical technicians and assistants.
Insurance companies frequently “write off” cars with major damage that would cost more (or nearly) to repair. They generally don’t scrap them, but then sell them at salvage auctions. They are then bought and repaired by people/companies who specialize in fixing up salvage title vehicles. They are then resold (with a salvage title)...generally you should try to avoid anything with a salvage title as they tend to be fixed as cheaply as humanly possible in order to turn a profit.
Thanks for the compliment! We agree that tools like Google Slides, Figma, etc have definitely set the standard for having a "single source of truth".
Currently we like being in the browser because everybody can use it, but indeed that has some limitations in terms of recording. Eventually we'll definitely have a native app (maybe Electron) for improved recording, but right now with a 2 person team we're trying to keep it lean :)

This is a great result from some off-the-shelf materials (uh, and a vacuum deposition chamber I guess). With some engineering for cheap manufacturing and improved capacity, the modifications might at least pay for themselves.
Tesla parts are actually really valuable. A lot of people want their engines (and batteries) for hot rod projects, and there are very few around. They can't be bought new, and the used price is probably higher than new would be.

I heard some irrational sounding numbers a few years back. Maybe prices have come down, now that more Teslas have had the opportunity to be totalled and sold for parts.
Siri voice recognition happens on Apple servers.

The device continually listens for the trigger words. Recognizing these happens on the device.

Once it thinks it recognizes these words the Siri ui appears, the chime plays, the recording starts and is streamed to Apple.

The scandal the author is referring to is that to improve the speech recognition, they had humans listen to a random selection of the recordings and correct the automatic recognition. Apples mistake here was that these people were not Apple employees but contractors. One of these employees leaked information about the recordings.

Sometimes the device will think it heard someone say ‘hey Siri’ when that wasn’t really the case. Typically the the recordings will be of a random part of a conversation but it may also be background noise of people having sex.

Compounding this problem is that to improve recogniton the Siri servers know things you are likely to refer to, like the names of your contacts. That way it’ll know that where one person may refer to Tom where another may be referring to Thom. The contractors had access to this information.

Is this spying? It isn’t particularly covert. Again, it was a mistake for Apple to outsource this task to people who clearly can’t be trusted. So now you can tell Apple to leave your recordings out of that process and they have stopped outsourcing the work. The fact that the contact information etcetera is used is clearly mentioned in the agreement.
Cell convection is relatively common.

For example, this is why large amateur telescopes perform worse for about an hour after they're brought outside: the mirror is "hot" compared to the air, so a network of toroidal convection cells (spinning doughnuts of air) forms on its surface, ever so slightly messing with the rays of light.

There's actually an attractor for some of these networks (speaking in general), where they form hexagonal cells. Of course, in most cases, it's more disorderly than that.

I'm not sure how a turbocharged network could form, but I'm looking forward to learn more on this topic.

> "Tesla uses much of its engineering prowess to design products that are inherently difficult for owners or small shops to modify, maintain, or repair."

Teslas (especially the Model 3 and Y) are not inherently difficult to repair. The problem is that Tesla's restrictive policies make it difficult for individuals to access the documentation and parts to do so.
JFC we really need to turn this societal acceptance of "you don't own the hardware" around.

It's always been legal to sell parts off your car. Do not buy anything that attempts to prevent you from owning what you bought through any sort of user agreement.
I like the cleanliness of the library. I learned about and used GAs in college. It is important for this library to have the ability to hold out the fittest candidate so far. This avoids the situation where a good solution is lost because the population evolves away from it. Optionally, the best candidate can be retained for breeding. Deleting unfit solutions should be a parameter. Breeding partner selection should also be weighted by fitness.

That might increase efficiency but I bet it would reduce joy. As someone who joined the industry for the joy aspect, not the efficiency and money aspect, that’s not very appealing to me. Besides, I think standardization is already happening and being rewarded in the form of higher salaries for people who are fluent in modern frameworks and practices.

I don't think one needs mich fantasy to imagine how a corrupt government in a country with corruption on every level oft the society gets something horribly wrong.

Corruption means you pay someone to bend the rules, to write down things wrongly, to actually honour the rules they are bending constantly etc.

So if you assume that in both cases (fireworks + ammonium nitrate) corruption was involved to bend the rules, maybe nobody really knew this was actually the case? Totally feasible.

Not to speak badly about Lebanese welders, but have you ever been to a middle eastern nation and seen how they do work safety? It is a wonder that such things don't happen a little more often.
Shotwell has said that it will be competitive with existing Internet pricing at $80. She didn't say it would be $80, but competitive with that pricing. Read that as you will. I'm sure that's only the starting price, that you'll be able to pay a lot more for more bandwidth.
Does anybody know if any mainstream compiler/JIT is experimenting with struct of arrays to array of structs & vice versa conversions?
Loved this article. There are so many applications of entropy and statistical physics in computer science, and I find it fascinating that the same general properties are useful in such different contexts.

For example, there's a well-known phenomenon in probability called concentration of measure. One of the most important examples in computer science is if you flip n coins independently, then the number of heads concentrates very tightly. In particular, the probability that you are more than an epsilon-fraction away from 0.5n heads is at most around e^{-epsilon^2 n}. This is exactly the setting described in the article with the sheep in two pens, and this inequality is used in the design of many important randomized algorithms! A classic example is in load balancing, where random assignment sometimes produces 'nice' configurations that look very much like the high-entropy states described in this article (but unfortunately, many times random assignments don't behave very well, see e.g. the birthday paradox).

The sum of independent random variables is well known to have concentration properties. An interesting question to me is what sorts of other statistics will exhibit these concentration phenomena. An important finding in this area is the bounded differences inequality (https://web.eecs.umich.edu/~cscott/past_courses/eecs598w14/n...), which generally states that any function that doesn't "depend too much" on each individual random argument (and the sum of bounded variables satisfies this assumption) exhibits the same concentration phenomenon. There are some applications in statistical learning, where we can bound the estimation error using certain learning complexity measures that rely on the bounded differences inequality. In the context of this article, that means there's a whole class of statistics that will concentrate similarly, and perhaps exhibit irreversibility at a macroscopic level.
Marxists hating people is not evidence of anything. Very similar groups of people hate each other all the time. The catholics vs. protestants in the middle ages comes to mind.
They are the part of the frame that fails, but they’re also at joints, which is where stress collects. I’d be interested to see failure modes for lugged (silver soldered) frames vs TIG welded vs pressed/glued or other bonded joins of tubed (no monocoque) frames.
You're obviously lucky enough to live in a country whose military is powerful enough and whose economy is large enough that they can enforce those bills (i.e. the ship owners would mind never doing business with you again).

No, putting up your own barriers doesn't help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holly_smoot_tariff_act

Barriers are barriers, it doesn't matter who put them up, you should do your best to reduce them.
So wpuld I save enough money on this new car because Tesla saved money building it, and therefore have enough money for a car insurance that would cover any damage to the frame so that this is a non-issue? Or is Tesla just passing this problem on to the consumer?
I've had a car repaired that had frame damage. It was a 1980s car though. Probably a lot harder to do with modern cars.
At least 40% of the voting population is going to come to another conclusion. Maybe more. This is actually what people want even if we don't understand why.

Just two lifetimes ago hundreds of thousands of propertyless young men fought and died for the privilege to compete against slave labor in...an agricultural society. Not all believed in the cause. Most probably didn't. But many did.
