Isn't that just the thing about LSD it allows you to view things from a perspective that makes them look beautiful. It makes ordinary things look great.

It's not what you should take if you are truly trying to accomplish something, other than be able to change your point of view.

Problem with your co-workers may have been that they didn't assume they were on drugs, that of course it will affect your productivity when everything starts looking good enough already. That's what drugs are like, if you take drugs, be aware you will be under their influence.

LSD is not a "performance enhancing drug" like perhaps could be said about amphetamines. The effect of those is truly detrimental to your health. But they make you more productive. A fighter-pilot on amphetamine might shoot down 3 enemy planes and then get shot down themselves. Productive but not so healthy.
JSON and YAML don’t offer any abstraction. If you want to describe kubernetes resources in such a way that you can deploy the same resources to many environments with subtle differences between them (e.g., namespace names, DNS names, etc) you want something to let you abstract so you aren’t manually trying to keep disparate copies of thousands of lines of frequently-changing config in sync.

The reason you don’t use regular languages for this task is because you want to enforce termination (programs can’t run forever without halting, allowing someone to DoS your system) or reproducibility (the config program doesn’t evaluate to different JSON depending on some outside state because the program did I/O). If your use case involves users who can be trusted not to violate these principles, then a standard programming language can work fine, but this frequently isn’t the case.

I hacked on the original TiVo and MythTV a bit; did not contribute much back, but I had a lot of fun. Video output from my few boxes were fed back into NTSC modulators; I added extra channels to the CATV distribution and could tune into my TV, music, music video, and movie library from any TV. Basically I built a mini VoD system in my house. I tried to keep this up into later years to little success using gradually more purpose built hardware. I think the dream finally died for me after my Dune HD gave up the ghost.

I started an Internet radio business in 1998 so this actually predated my involvement in the HTPC stuff. We programmed several genre stations of our own, properly and legally and built audio encoding appliances that we would sell as a simulcasting service to traditional broadcast stations. Even though we were operating legally and paying licensing, we eventually got killed by the Metallica v Napster suit which prompted the licensing agencies to retool their fees and prompted commercial broadcasters at the time to put a hold on all Internet streaming.

Everything in one place is what customers want, but the businesses that own the stuff want customer attention and lock in. Why anyone would want to dedicate their career to enforcing this attitude for a giant multinational corporation is beyond me. This idiocy is the reason the youtube mobile app doesnt let you watch video in the background and hides the clock, for instance. It's untenable. Ultimately I gave up on the whole mess. I still own some TVs, but these days they are mostly off. I don't have the stomach for it.

The music services fortunately have mostly figured it out: there are a number of places where you can choose to either select and purchase from or subscribe in bulk to "nearly all the commercially distributed music there is" for a fee commiserate with your desire to either buy the product or be the product. For video, it's alphabet shit soup.

You can only power a house if the car is setup to be able to push power back to the grid. sadly teslas are not. Did the hummer launch announce such capability?
You're asking the wrong question. It's not correct to ask if COVID shelter in place orders are worth it for "200k" deaths.

The correct question to ask is, "What is the cost of not sheltering in place?" The answer seems to be between two million and three million deaths in the US from COVID alone[0]. Of course, there would be even more deaths due to ICUs being full and even more acute shortages of PPE for medical personnel.

We would also experience profound second- and third-order effects of millions of additional deaths on the economy.

> should we... force video taped gym sessions and cardio exercises? require wearable monitors? prohibit admittance to public transport without a gym validation stamp or a doctor note?

I hope you've taken the opportunity to read this again. To be charitable, it does not meet the high standards I think we hold ourselves to at HN. People suffering from heart disease don't infect others with a potentially fatal virus.

Other countries have applied strict shelter in place and mask rules with great success. In the US, compliance with such rules has been made political, and questioning it--often with straw man arguments like those above--has become the mark of supposed contrarian rebels.

As a result we have something of the worst of both worlds. Sadly, as more Americans irresponsibly refuse to apply basic COVID safety measures, more people get infected, thus supplying rhetorical ammunition to critics like those in this thread.

Yeah, the charger for my model 3 charges at the car's max onboard charger current of 48a; 48a * 240v = 11.520kW.

We charge the car to 90%, every time the battery is down to perhaps 100 miles of range, and it takes ~3h. Technically 0-75kWh at max current (which wouldn't happen but let's play) would take 6.5 hours.

For the Hummer, 200/11.520 = 17.4 hours.

This is not a tax issue, but induced by existence of dual exchange rates. I'm guessing due to the limits, most phone resellers have to obtain their US dollars from the black market at higher rates, resulting in higher local pricing. Only those who are well-connected or buy dollars in low volumes can get adequate sums at the official rate, and even then, the arbitrage opportunity may be too good to miss out on, which results in prices close to black market rates, regardless.
The problem is that everyone wants something different in an IDE (and the same person often wants different stuff depending on the language they are programming in). Whatever default Emacs can provide will be suboptimal for most users and cause additional dissatisfaction. People have a more open mind when when they know it doesn't include an IDE and may have to work to get one up and going than if they simply see the default one and think that's the best they'll get with Emacs.

To give you an idea, I used Emacs as a programming editor for a decade, and only about 2 weeks ago did I first set it up as some kind of IDE (or rather, I just installed elpy and it did it all for me). I was perfectly happy without using it as an IDE - knowing the constraints that come with it.

No, to any code that is a part of a derivative work of GPL code; a product may often be an aggregate of code that is not a derivative work of GPL code and derivative-of-GPL code.

What is legally a derivative work, OTOH, is not always simple and straightforward to determine, so to avoid conflict one might go the whole way out to the product boundary.

Its not my responsibility to look for evidence if you're making the claim.

If you want to come into a thread telling people that are already apprehensive about a procedure "please don't do X its dangerous!" when an _actual_ first google will give you a Mayo Clinic saying its perfectly fine, then you need to provide some fucking evidence.

> In other words, I spent a ton of time to set up emacs so that when it's already open new files will be opened in that already running instance.

Integration. If I want to open emacs inside a Cmake c++ project, everything it needs is already there. But I have to configure all the tools myself. Then I switch to a python project and the same stuff has to happen again.
An interesting thought experiment would be to give the description of the pipe wrench to engineers without telling the what it was or what it was used for. Then ask them to design a tool that matches that description.

Probably much like with software designed from a description, there would be multiple solutions, all of which would meet the requirements given. Some would be better than others, some worse. Some would share common engineering designs, others would be completely unique.

And in the end if someone created a functional and usable tool for the job required (rotate pipes), who is to call those that don't accurately recreate the original wrong in their solution?

I realize by the way that the article is more about precision code like that description rather than writing code from the precision description. But still, there is still the concept that even precise things are open for interpretation.
> And an anonymous tip-off enabled BBC News to follow the ransom negotiations in a live chat on the dark web.

So, that "anonymous tip-off" was obviously from the hackers, right? I guess the other option is a "whistleblower" at UCSF (would anyone else know about it?), but the hackers have a lot to benefit from everyone knowing about it, so next victim thinks "Gee, respected institutions like UCSF are willing to pay the ransom and didn't have the capability to recover otherwise, we should probably just pay the ransom too".
I understand taxing an optional luxury item like iPhone to encourage local manufacturing, with all the cheap phones available it won't affect the common man too much. But the government here is bent on taxing everything as much as possible. Eg: The Prime Minister keeps harping about "Digital India" but computer components and laptops have an import duty of 80-100%. Does he have the money to build a fab in India ? Hell no, but tax processors at 80%. Talks about "Artiphisial Intelligence" in his speech and annual budget, but taxes GPUs at 80-100%.

The rich and middle class have workarounds for these duties by asking friends and family to bring them things from US, but its the poor who's children suffer the most. Poverty is not a problem in India, its a design feature, keep people poor and stupid, loot them all you want.

Most people who have the resources or skill to leave India are doing it anyway. Policies like these will only serve to expedite it. This country will likely be next Venezuela.

PS: This is not a political statement against the present government, every political party here has done and will continue with this stupidity.
Hybrid cars are stop-gap, bullshit technology that we should have weaned ourselves from 5-6 years ago. Not only do they marry all the complexity of an ICE vehicle to the electric car, but in the specific case of Volvo (with their extremely high tolerance, low displacement high output motors (YES, turbo and supercharged)) involves even greater complexity.

Volvo and their inability to commit to electric (and all of the marketing and advertising to the contrary) is a master class in the reality of incumbent ICE manufacturers. It also shows how much of the volvo branding and market segment is just bullshit.

"Their goal is 50% plugin hybrid, 50% full electric by 2025"

Yes, we all saw those press releases but the reality is the actual volvo cars (V60, V90, XC90, S60, S80) will be the hybrids[1] and the space-tron eMobility iDrive ecoTrans "initiative" cars will be the electric ones.

Show me an actual volvo (not a space-tron concept car and not their little XC40 golf cart) that is electric and I will happily recant (and go purchase one).

I don't believe it was in bad faith; that said, it was very much an interpretation, and your use and perception of language differs from mine, so we may just have a different reading of the sentence "Why bring it up unless you do?"

I think a lot of the elderly have already faced death. I know for years my grandma has almost welcomed death. It isn't scary to her. So I think many of these people think "so what, I might die this year instead of 6 months later, I'm just going to make the most of whatever time I have left." It definitely makes sense considering the uncertainness of the future for them and rapidly declining cognitive and mental functions.

While being younger we're trying to maximize time. Even time with the elderly. Different cost functions.

> "Ideally, the EV Hummer would offer comparable or better performance than the ICE, though achieving such will likely take further research and investment."

The Hummer EV easily beats any ICE Hummer, as well as it's contemporary ICE peers, on all performance metrics except range.

In fact, the ICE Hummer was such a gas guzzler that even its range was worse than the Hummer EV. With fuel efficiency as low as 9 miles to the gallon, the Hummer H2's 32.0 US gallon fuel tank would have only given it a range of 288 miles compared to the Hummer EV's 350.

The calculation is not as simple as that. Any imports above INR 50K (about USD 676), while traveling back to India by Indian citizens, attract import duties (of 35% or so, IIRC). So the $1140.15 device, when it lands in India, would attract a duty on the excess amount. Of course, people may not declare it at customs or may try to claim it's a used device (while not having any other phone), but this is the official law.
