Current ICEs seem to be doing a good job of working everywhere. I won't downplay their disadvantages, but the slope down from the current local maximum is pretty steep, and it's not obvious that area electric cars currently (or can in the next 10 years) occupy constitutes an improvement.

Coming from an airport one day, I thought to myself, "OK, this is gonna be a treat" and hopped into one of the Tesla SUV taxis. Wow, kind of a letdown tbh. I expected high-end interior, but they're actually really bare-bones. This was a few years ago, not sure if they've changed anything though.

Tangent, but something similar is my main beef with the Tesla Model 3 (& Y), which otherwise would be the perfect candidate for my next car. I really wish it had some physical controls.

What's more infuriating is the lack of a binnacle right in front of you. The older Model S & X have one, but supposedly the upcoming refresh is going to take it away.

At least the F-35 has a helmet mounted display even if no HUD.

I believe Musk's rationale is that when these cars become self driving, there will be no need of a binnacle or even a HUD.

Kaleidoscope is by far the best implementation of system theming I've used. A single file was responsible for the appearance of window chrome, window controls, control and text colors, fonts, desktop icons, cursor, text selection color, etc.

Furthermore, the schemes were free to rearrange and reshape window chrome as the artist pleased, meaning it was possible to do things like have a titlebar on the bottom of the window or to make the titlebar into a vertical tab that hung off the left or right edges of the window. Heck, it was even possible to make windows take on odd, non-square shapes. The results weren't always practical, but it was a great enabler of creativity, and made for probably the most true-to-the original OS themes on any platform.

The only thing that even comes close is probably WinXP/Win7 msstyles, but even those have significant limitations compared to Kaleidoscope. Some arrangements of Linux desktops come close from a technical perspective, but suffer from the customizability being divided into 500 small pieces, making it a bit arduous to get everything to match up.

EDIT: One other thing — Kaleidoscope had something unique that I have yet to see replicated elsewhere: there was no installation process for schemes. You could keep your schemes wherever you pleased, and switching them was as simple as navigating to the desired scheme in Finder and double-clicking it. Boom, done. No obscure and/or hidden directories to copy things to, no incantations to make them show up in a control panel. More things could use that classic Mac flavor of simplicity.
Of course, and we'll new dominant players in 5 years. My point is just that none of these do anything radically different from IRC. Channel-based as the primary mode (as opposed to direct) is a bit of paradigm shift in terms of UX, but it's just a veneer on group chats that have existed forever. And obviously, they've all been adapted to web/smartphones as opposed to terminal. But in terms of what kind of communication they enable, it's absolutely nothing new. I could do this kind of thing on Quantum Link on my Commodore.

Doesn't your city provide charging points on street parking? That's quite common in European cities, both in residential areas and public parking near shops.

Used to even be the case in Amsterdam that you didn't have to pay for parking if you were paying for charging. But they quickly changed that because charging isn't nearly as profitable as the parking fees.
Yeah because everyone has the consumers best interests at heart.

Not at all, the profit maximisers will make peer agreements that monopolise their positions and make it difficult or impossible for startups to complete, that’s all that will happen.

It depends-- similar to how a balance sheet goodwill value can be interpreted, the "luxury of status"/Veblen component of a car quickly disappears after 3,5 or 10 years once the styling/features change. You're probably paying a more realistic value relative to the intrinsic value of the car at that point-- which places more emphasis on performance/aesthetics/reliability/costs to keep running, rather than status-- because the car will still likely still have the luxury components such as _Corinthian Leather_, ride quality, power, quiet ride, etc.. If you buy a 10 year old Lexus with 50k miles (out of a 250k expected lifespan) that retailed for $80k for $8k, and it still has the same functions/performance/reliability, did you get "less car" than when new, or did you just not pay the status premium? How much does the status premium change if it is $15k for an originally $75k car that has 50k miles and an expected longevity of only 120k miles?

It is amazing to look at the used car market (for likely daily driven vehicles) and see how specific vehicles hold their value so much differently. There are specific Audis that have a proclivity to grenading their $20k-to-replace transmissions at 80k miles, or have a rear engine timing chain that is a low 5 digit replacement when it eats a guide. So these once $80k cars can be had for a steep discount given someone is paying a huge repair bill if it is to still be driven. Even with econoboxes from finance companies who happen to sell cars (think FCA) that have had consistent sludge/electrical/emission issues over the last 3 decades-- the price falls so much faster than an equivalent Toyota. While nowadays nearly any mass market car will be able to run for 200k miles, how much will it cost to achieve said goal? This is not entirely unknown to buyers, so prices do tend to reflect. It isn't foolproof-- companies like Toyota and Honda can make crappy cars, and bad companies can make good cars-- but the average consumer uses a lot of heuristic shortcuts/anecdotes/etc. to make purchasing decisions.

The enthusiast segments are even more fascinating. Certain cars are going to be more akin to works of art, even if they weren't supercar expensive to begin with: see S2000's and mk4 Supras. Even further, some vehicles for some reason are not inherently reliable, have mediocre drivetrains and practical functionality but have a much shallower depreciation curve-- Jeep Wranglers.
On wired connections no, but wireless is... iffy. There is an upper physical limit to how much data can go through air and you do want to avoid a tragedy of the commons scenario, and there has to be a more elegant way to do that then letting internet providers double someone's phone bill for watching Netflix, but I'm just not what that would be. At least with 5G we can kick that can down the road for another few years.
Yeah, just shovel the data in. No schema, no problem.

The tradeoff is that if you're actually relying on the structure of that data, you're introducing risk since its changes aren't being intentionally managed at the DB level.
While reading this article, I was remembering an old game that was focused around social-interaction, with the "game" element being just iterated rock-paper-scissors. Enough googling and I found, it was "Trust & Betrayal: The Legacy of Siboot" which was written by ... Chris Crawford.

On one hand, that game is super primitive. On the other, there are approximately zero games in the time since that have less primitive interactions with computer-controlled characters.
Polestar makes two cars: a very limited production number hybrid and a weird-looking/ugly electric 5-door that starts at £46k.

Thunderbolt on Its Trial[1][2] is a recent post that mentioned some of this split, with a story of a german waiter serving allied soldiers after the war. It talked about the soldiers returning home, finding a nation which had radicalized it's hate, a hate they demonstrably did not have. Good article in other ways, talking about "being under a spell", & judgment based on the extreme events that eventually boil (thunderbolt) over from longer situations (heavy weather). I feel this article will stick with me for a long time.

I’m still hoping that, in the future, there will be conductive charging built into freeways, main roads, etc. But that’s a huge cost which I’m sure no one wants to take. It would however help with the range problem of EVs.
The people that could make it a reality in the future are probably hoping for giant advancements in battery tech instead.
Exactly. A lot of the whining can be avoided by a dual AGPL3 (maybe GPL3) plus proprietary "call for a quote and contract negotiations" license. Most big cloud shops will avoid AGPL, so they will pay, the rest will be as happy with AGPL as with BSD or Apache.
Smalltalk was already slowly picking up steam in the PC world at least.

I used Smalltalk/V for some university projects and then there was Visual Age for Smalltalk.

However then Java happened and most of the vendors pivoted into it.

I still switch to the Smalltalk like browser on Eclipse from time to time.
How did you restore it, you monster?
Once upon a time, Jesus and the Devil got into a computer contest, to see who was better with computers.

At the declared time, the two beings open up spreadsheets, web-browsers, programming code, and all sorts of documents. As time wound down, it looked like the Devil was slightly superior at multitasking and was about to win the contest. Suddenly, the power goes out... and the Devil loses all of his work.

The Devil turns his computer back on, while sad about losing his work, he thinks he can still prove himself the better computer user. But as Jesus turns his computer back on, all of his work pops back up, and Jesus ultimately finishes the contest first.

----------

The Devil is perplexed. How did Jesus recover from the power-outage so quickly? So he asks and Jesus responds: "Because Jesus Saves".

Net neutrality seems like an irrelevant discussion now to anyone interested in "radical" internet models (read: anything that's not deeply entrenched in the client-server paradigm). Why should we care about the battles between corporate titans over how they treat each other? Frankly, I hope the ISPs and carriers are able to squeeze them, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Generally speaking, someone who is starting a tech business with no intention of taking investment (esp. VC).

Many indie hackers are trying to avoid having a boss and/or trying to avoid selling time for money (as others have said), but some do want to grow relatively large businesses. I believe that DHH and Base Camp in general in its early days would have been considered “indie hackers”.
It's a really important question.

On the one hand, most people say that you shouldn't push yourself hard. You should take a rest. Take your time.

Pushing hard may lead to burnout/big stress/depression/anxiety/whatever.

On the other hand:

1. I see that well-known people who work hard has some results. Literally, a minute ago I saw a tweet from a guy is very well known, and dedicated his life for one thing. And he's working really hard.

2. For me, it depends. If I don't push myself, if I'm not being strict with myself, if I'm not angry I usually don't get any result. However, after continuous hard-work I eventually got burned out.

So it's really hard to keep balance
Doesn't matter what the official name was, what everyone called it was GChat or Google Chat.
This makes me wonder how important or useful rigorous / axiomatic arguments for intuitively true “facts” are.
As far as applications are concerned, it seems like the physicist’s math (what Feynman calls Babylonian math as opposed to the axiomatic Greek math) works well enough, while rigorization often trails by decades or centuries (as in the case of calculus).
To me, the main value of CD is ownership. The developer can own a change from beginning to end, and most importantly, its impact on production. That feedback loop creates better future changes and a better developer.

Automatic deployment takes it to the next level where it becomes so easy to deploy that the dev starts fixing things they would have previously ignored because it was too painful, annoying, or time consuming to deploy before. A typo here, a refactoring there, and now they can fix, push, and go back to what they were doing within minutes, but do so with the confidence they won't break things. It is kinda like the difference from when CI takes 3 minutes to 10 minutes. It isn't much but that longer time means you alt-tab over to reddit or whatever, forget what you are doing, and now that task takes orders of magnitude more of wall clock time.
Not all of that revenue is search. When you add consider not all of that revenue is from Search, the cost of compliance (adding more to legal team and the toil of actually negotiating with all the other parties), much less actually paying for the links, they might see it as genuinely not worth it so it might not just be a case of punishment for Australia daring to regulate them. In that case, other search engines that pick up enough market share for the law to apply to them, which will probably much less profitable to begin with, will feel the same way.
This didn't make me try out Pidgin again, but it did make me ls ~/.purple: Turns out there are some conversations from 2008-2011 that have carried over through my various Linux reinstalls since then. Fun!

M1 cores outperform Comet Lake cores and are basically tied with AMD Vermeer despite using a fraction of the power.
I'm jealous that you can eat grains! Any kind sets me off unfortunately. And yeah it took me a while to realize but any kind of fried food is bad for me. So even eating coconut tortilla chips sets me off, despite the fact that they contain no grain. I am hopeful that in the future, more paleo / autoimmune paleo targeting brands come out. There was already a pleasantly surprising amount of brands catering to this, last time I was at a whole foods.

For those who can't tolerate dairy, or any kinds of nuts or seeds or grains, one kind of food that you might enjoy is coconut yogurt. Not cheap but it helps to break some of the dietary monotony.
Yeah the HOA at my condo complex is ran by ... some older folks who aren't really all that tech savvy. I asked one of the folks on the board if I could put in a charging station on my parking spot, on my own dime. He laughed and said the HOA wrote him up for running a charging cable out to a battery charger to jump start his car. He said he highly doubted they'd be willing to allow folks have chargers installed any time soon. Bummer. I like the idea of owning an EV but that will have to wait until I own a SFH years down the line.
It's a game-changer in the hobbyist marine-electronics world. The marine electronics field is littered with various weird proprietary protocols that are _almost_ the same as open standards in other industries, but not quite. Examples include:

- NMEA0183, which is electrically RS-422 (similar to the ubiquitous RS-232, but only sometimes)

- NMEA2000, which is basically CAN

- Seatalk, which looks like NMEA0183 but is electrically inverted (1 is 0 and vice versa) and also uses weird byte lengths (9-bit?)

- Seatalk-ng, which is basically NMEA2000 with a few more message types

A $4 device that can translate arbitrary weird PHY protocols into a bitstream on a USB port is awesome in this world.
No, it clearly says two memory accesses per character.

"At worst" calculation is just calculating the worst case (string not found) where it has to scan the whole string and... access each byte twice.

It doesn't matter whether we have a worst case or not. They claim two memory accesses per character.
It seems much more plausible to me that the author does understand short-circuit evaluation, but did not feel like explaining it in such detail to satisfy the tedious pedantry of HN comments.

My experience with writing answers Stack Overflow is that people in the comments will always figure out a way to interpret an answer as being incorrect, and latch onto it.

There is a tradeoff between clarity and pedantry. You don’t want to simplify something too much where it is no longer insightful, and you don’t want to write something with irrelevant detail that obscures the point you are trying to make.
You pay your ISP for bandwidth, but not for full and constant utilization of said bandwidth. Check the acceptable use policy of any major ISP, and you'll find they can throttle you whenever and however at their sole discretion.
Thank you for taking the time to answer.

Do you use any tools like OP to help with your lifestyle? I know memory is a complex problem even for those who don't usually face explicit issues like you do; but does common memory retention practices like 'spaced repetition' made any positive improvements for you?
Is this really DFA-less? Isn't the look-back table you construct just encoding the DFA?
Some ISPs have started zero rating certain services.

You might think the effect of this is good to you as an Internet user, but this is the beginning of tying services to ISPs which is the "trojan horse" that is the start of undermining the freedom of service choice a neutral Internet can give you.
I used Pidgin for over a decade to chat with friends across ICQ, AIM, Gtalk, Hangouts, and YIM. I eventually gave up because the chat clients I needed weren't supported and keeping it working with things like Hangouts became tedious.

I don't feel like downloading DLLs from GitHub and copying them into directories to get Emoji support or to update Plug-ins that break month to month.

I have a neighbour who is charging his Nissan Leaf living on 2 floor of 15 storey building.
That's the way I, an an EV owner, deal with long trips. I would never try to plot a course from charger to charger. That sounds annoying and dangerous.

I also highly doubt that charger networks would scale. Right now there are already busy gas stations by every exit on the highway. Imagine how overloaded they would be if it took an hour to fill up the tank.

A plug-in hybrid still makes more sense. They're far cheaper than any electric car, have all the advantages of an electric car for short trips, and have all the advantages of a gasoline car for long trips.

Electric cars are usable. They are not yet practical.

(By the way, as you may see from my other comments, I consider Tesla a criminal enterprise. It is possible I am dismissing the Supercharger network a little too easily.)
I think because it has no room for the module. Cameras these days tend to bulge out of the case of the phone...
I stopped using Pidgin back when everyone I know stopped using ICQ, MSN, AIM, and it was all down to Gtalk anyway. Hadn't really noticed the re-explosion for some reason, but looking at the list of what Pidgin supports, I'm using quite a few things on the list (Steam, Discord, Slack, FB Messenger)
> People willing to pay enough to buy a mirrorless photo camera and plug it in as a web cam when they need it.

Yeap. I feel like this is the way to go.
Maybe the street chargers could be run for profit with the proceeds used to subsidize public transportation?
Of course, competing with the reengineering of cities you propose is the trend toward remote work which I think will only grow. Most of the well-heeled jobs that have driven up the cost of housing in large cities can be done elsewhere. When the choice is to pay $1M for a 1200 sq ft apartment in the city vs the same amount in rural New Hampshire to get a castle with a barn on an acre, the funding needed to reengineer cities may flow elsewhere.
Could Google Leave Australia?
