Tesla right now is ignoring worker rights in Germany. They will learn like Wallmart before, that you cannot roll the same shit here, as you do in America.

Elon Musk is the richest person on the planet. You really do not need to prefer either of those companies for anything but the products they sell. Your decision does not matter.

What matters is single entities like Musk, VW, Bezos, Wallstreet and Gates not having the undemocratic mandate to form the world to their liking, "good" or bad. Nobody should have that much power.

If you want to change the world with money, invest in those who consider having 100$ or 1000$ more or less life changing. Pay for FOSS, invest in local communities. Strengthen the collective.

I think Full X developer has exactly the same work-path TBH. If a person knows (and I mean really knows) front-end, back-end, databases, devops and has some people skills he will be promoted crazy fast.
Do you need any help with Apple Silicon transition? I've purchased a new mac mini recently and looking for an open-source project to contribute.
I've worked with very high level engineers at Google that thought cyclic dependencies are fine. Sometimes they are just the simplest solution and trying to design abstractions to avoid it just creates a huge mess.

If you've working with Java at Google (Guice) makes you learn to hate hiding circular dependencies behind dependency injection, since your binary gets injected by some huge tree of thousands of dependencies all that can create errors or interfere with each other. And without static checking trying to reason and fix those issues becomes really hard.

I strongly prefer using the languages actual type system to create circular dependencies that you can inspect using well known tools over that any day, better have a problem you can see than hide the same problem to satisfy some tools requirement.
There was a TED talk about this, don't know about papers.

I remember something Jeff talked about during the original Stack Overflow podcasts, that Google was the main interface for Stack Overflow. As in, your entry into Stack Overflow would for the majority of people be through search. And to speak for myself, this is how I use Stack Overflow 99% of the time.

This makes me wonder. Just having a copy of the SO data without the Google algorithms to bring you to the right question, the experience would probably be different when working of a copy.
How universities catch you cheating during your programming 101 homework
There are firms I've heard of who have social media watchers and they play based on "buzz". I don't know how that pans out in long term holdings, but short term I'm guessing they've been successful or they wouldn't keep doing it.
We are only at the beginning of the S-curve of renewable adoption. The US is particularly well suited for this due to its large area.

Furthermore, you can capture the CO2 of a the fossil based electric plant way more easily than putting all this machinery into each and every car. Retrofitting filters etc. is also way easier than telling your voters to buy new cars with better filters.
> The "10xDev" is one that's 10 times more effective than the least effective developer; NOT 10x the average dev nor 10x the median dev.

I'm pretty sure that very few have this definition of the term.

Could you elaborate on how this was supposed to happen?
The question was "what has reflection got to do with it". I've used reflection for dependency inversion, so I think that's what it's got to do with it.

If you can do dependency inversion without reflection, more power to you :-) We can't do classpath scanning in the project I'm working on because of the size of the classpath, and compile time configuration using direct imports would introduce cycles, so reflection it is for us, in one form or another.
Too bad California is shutting down its last nuclear power station in 2025 (which provides 10% of California's electricity) because upgrading its cooling system to meet new ocean water temperature regulations would cost on the order of $10 billion dollars.
The complaint is, we don't need to allow big tech so much power. Utilities are heavily regulated to prevent monopolistic abuse. Big tech is showing similar "natural monopoly" tendencies and so needs to be reigned in with regulation because free markets are failing here.
With UBI, it's going to be difficult to extract labor out of people who aren't desperate. Without UBI, the same set of people will revolt one day. I think these are the choices being considered.
I was thinking that this could be a metric which is given too much importance imho, since it can be hacked, but not necessarily with a script. Deliberately making smaller or redundant commits achieves something similar. Of course a script is at least fun and also good practice.

Shouldn’t that be something that’s pulled into upstream? And if they refuse, fork libinput?
obviously you were not "delivering" or they won't have pushed you out, why would they hire someone and pay someone if you were not "under performing"?

the problem is they didn't communicate to you what you really need to be doing and you didn't realize it. it might be that technically you are doing everything right, but politically you are doing it all wrong. working is not just about doing the actual work, but also about the performance of a work.

with that said, if you believe in the company, mission, product, then don't think much about it. you can become director of engineering, vp of engineering, etc. find a way to make yourself very useful and keep contributing. ... imagine this company was the next google, facebook, amazon, would you leave? so back to the question, do you believe in the company, mission and product?

for all you know, the new CTO might actually hate it and quit in less than a year.
Everything is open-source. They block what they want and you can fork it or recompile it. You don't have that same liberty with Google, the Apple Store, Amazon, Samsung, etc.

On the store that you host you can also choose to enforce whichever rules you like.

Plus, they were talking about Gab there. If you think you're going to write the next Gab or... Pander or Flander or whatever that website was that allowed people to plan storming the US capital, then you can still have your own store.

Robinhood stopped allowing you to play new games of blackjack. You're suggesting that, as a casino customer, you could say "you can't shut this table down! I was going to make back my money on the next hand!" which is pretty funny.

I don't think this is at all like a bank that won't let you withdraw your money. I think it's like a brokerage that has to post 100% collateral --- out of their money --- for every share of GME that you ask it to buy, doesn't have the money to post that collateral, and thus can't buy any more GME for you.

I imagine that's only available in the US. The page is in English and there's only an American phone number even when switching to the local Tesla site.
The big new parenting hack I discovered late in the game are 2-3 scheduled 20 minute naps. Totally mitigates the worst effects of sleep fragmentation and depravation. You don’t feel 100% but the 80% you do feel makes it way different than the abject misery of going a whole day after 2-3 hours of sleep.

The scheduled part is critical since it ensures you get to the point where your body drops right to REM and you actually get your naps instead of presuming you will find the time and then life manages to get in the way.
Maybe he counts on the reader to connect the dots?
That doesn't actually sound mixed w.r.t section 230, more like a very clear statement that a different solution is needed.
Many many people reject personal experience of any type as specious and constantly reject opinions contrary to their own when shown contradictory evidence on this basis. It is a large part of the reason the country is the way it is.
I don't know about China but, yeah, in the late 80s or so there was this incredible panic about Japan buying everything up. And various Nobel Prize-winning economists telling anyone who would listen that we had to institute government-industry partnerships like MITI or the US was doomed. And we did create organizations like SEMATECH to counter a perceived gap in semiconductors.

Some of it was probably a useful kick in the pants, especially in manufacturing processes. But a lot of it was panic emulation of Japan that was neither needed nor especially useful.
Yes, in both cases it is not not for technical reasons.

Many Wayland compositors simply lack support for nVidia cards as they use a different protocol than all the others, and many graphics acceleration calls are simply not implemented through nested servers.
Would the extra time work even if want an afternoon nap but a longer night sleep?
I’m not surprised. You are most productive from like 9 to 12. A nap allows you to have two productive sessions.
> Trouble is that this entire world is completely closed to you and I. Goldman Sachs can trade it, but you can't. You can't drop into a bank and ask to underwrite the insurance on my trading account being liquidated - only the bank can.

Fifty years ago you hand to walk into a physical office and buy shares in block of 20/50/100 or lots of a $500 multiple: no longer the case. Thirty years ago most people, could barely have diversification, and index funds were barely known: no longer the case. Nowadays you have to have at least a seven-digit account if you want to be able to do direct indexing: how long before that's won't be the case?

Many things were only available to the large players because they were only practical/economical at a certain scale. Technology has improved efficiencies to the point that many product offerings are now available 'down market' to where they used to be.

I never (quite) believed that it was "just memes and scams", but rather solutions trying to solving so-called problems where (a) the problems were imagined, or (b) the creators of the solutions didn't understand things well enough to make useful solutions. (Deflationary currencies? Really?)
California is shutting down its last nuclear plant in 2025 due to new cooling water regulations.
I'm just asking if the article is making a similar argument to the stated hypothesis.
> shallow hot topic issues like who uses which bathroom

This is only shallow because you have made it so. I could also say “shallow hot topic issues like bra burning”. Drop the strawman.
Natural gas is the preferred fossil fuel here. It spins up faster than coal, and as a result California has had to delay the decommissioning of nat gas plants as nuclear ones have been shut down.

Hydro is a pretty small part of our grid (real-time and historical data here: https://www.caiso.com/TodaysOutlook/Pages/supply.html)
Thank you. I definitely have some reading to do in trying to wrap my head around all of this. At first glance, it does seem like some people in the industry (Charlie Munger, Michael Spence) share my perspective (though Munger could just be strategizing).
Short Ladder attack during low volume caused by inability to buy.
Sadly as much as I hate seeing essential communication links cut, though I don't have any data I am assuming a lot of people are going to buy in the public safety angle. It is not like the Indian state hasn't used that line of reasoning before for even bans lasting more than a year.

Reading through the linked article on the violence related to the same protests that happened few days back reminded me of some tweets I had seen. People running around brandishing swords(and other melee weapons) attacking cops, which felt way worse than what we saw in US Capitol insurrection. https://twitter.com/ANI/status/1354088807424028673
I want a decentralized messenger which can delete msgs and sync between devices
Moreover, delete both for me and for my contact. Is that too much to ask?

I wonder why XMPP hasn't released a similar XEP yet. But frankly speaking, XMPP is not the best choice when it comes to decentralization. For me, Tox has always been an example of a good idea. But it still don't know even how to send offline messages.

Bitmessage is very cool, but also very inconvenient and the network itself is slow. So, yes, you can write anything in Bitmessage and it will be completely anonymous, but get ready to wait several minutes to send one message.

I have tried Retroshare. I've tried Session. Tox. Signal. But every one of them was bad in some way. Either they didn't contain what messenger needs, or they were overloaded with unnecessary features, or were frankly inconvenient.

I'm not a programmer, but in general I have an idea of how a normal messenger should work. Even if it's visually awful or only works on the command line.

1. It should be p2p. This means that there should be no servers in the middle, except perhaps relays.

2. ALL messages should be e2e encrypted.

3. It must support offline messages. It doesn't matter how it is implemented. The main thing is that messages should not remain on the relays even in encrypted form after delivery.

4. You don't need ANYTHING but your own desire to register. No phones, no email, no confirmation codes.

5. It must be instantaneous. Frankly speaking, I don't want to wait 10 minutes for message delivery like in Bitmessage.

6. In it you can delete messages. And both your own and your contact's messages. On all devices simultaneously.

7. It must be able to synchronize between devices.

It sounds simple. Moreover, it sounds logical! I reread my post and think: yes, this is how communication should be. But for some reason I do not know any messenger that implements these simple seven points.

Maybe someone knows one? It would even be great if it is unpopular and this post will help it to get promoted.
Yeah it's kind of ridiculous to not include this. It's like a headline,

Lately I've noticed I do much better off 5.5-6.5 hours of sleep. I've been fighting brain fog and fatigue lately so occasionally I try to force myself to sleep more and it just makes my problems worse.
Some other resources that may be helpful for anyone looking is (of course) the Arch wiki [0]. I also found it helpful to set somethings like DPI based on the machine (I share my dot files across my computers) which can be done pretty easily using e.g. the hostname [1]. (Note that GitHub doesn't perfectly render the org file, you'd want to see the raw file for details if interested in literal dotfiles.)

>To accomplish this, we assembled the entire set of published studies in this literature and identified the core estimates that support the conclusions from each study, in most cases relying on responses from the researchers who wrote these papers.
Our key conclusions are: (i) there is a clear preponderance of negative estimates in the literature; (ii) this evidence is stronger for teens and young adults as well as the less-educated; (iii) the evidence from studies of directly-affected workers points even more strongly to negative employment effects; and (iv) the evidence from studies of low-wage industries is less one-sided.

If you look a few comments below, you can see the poster in question defending modern-day slavery:

> We may disagree, but it's their country. And people who don't like it can always leave
> but in reality it's easy to verify that archive.is's nameservers are returning different IP addresses depending on the network you're coming in from.

Yes, this is the whole point of (this part of) EDNS. It allows you to direct the traffic to a server close to the end user (geographically or based on peering preferences).

> This is clearly broken on their end.

There are two broken things here:

1. Cloudflare doesn't send the source IP with the DNS request

2. Archive.is would rather not respond to broken requests at all than make a best-effort with a degraded experience

Considering that Cloudflare is pretty much the only public DNS server with this problem, and the only motivation seems to be that it competes with their CDN product, I'm far more sympathetic to Archive.is than to Cloudflare.

> Cloudflare literally can't fix this. archive.is is 100% responsible.

Only Cloudflare can fix this properly. Archive.is can work around it (at the cost of degraded performance), but I can understand why they would want to stand their ground.

The only long-term solution is to convince your acquaintances to have at most one kid, or to make sure your kids join a space-faring company ;)

"I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives."

I find if I'm working on a difficult problem, I feel like I can make more rapid progress if I take a 'nap' early afternoon in that post lunch drowsy period. I often start thinking about the problems again immediately on waking, and typically find that is the most productive period in terms of breakthroughs and making mental connections.

I put 'nap' in quotes because I don't set an alarm (unless there is specific need to), and for me that usually means a 2 hour sleep! I figure that is made up of 90 mins of one sleep cycle, and some time either side for falling asleep and waking.

Not for the Indian government, at his level they are just for the lulz. For the US government, very likely.
Yeah but there’s a very good chance that won’t work with various hardware configurations. I was able to get per-monitor scaling to work only after giving up use of half my GPUs, and still there were problems with several apps. This was on stock Ubuntu; I didn’t get too crazy customizing because I just wanted to find a Linux desktop that worked.
I understood the "close to the speed of light" really meant something much much smaller than 0.1c, since on cosmological timescales the difference between the first radio signals and domination from an alien civilization could be millions of years, and that'd still be an instant compared to the time before and after the event. So I'm assuming for the fermi paradox to work out here, we'd not need speeds anywhere near 0.1c
It's not the only codec, but it's the only high quality codec mandated by the spec and supported by all the browsers.

G711 is also mandated by the spec but it's a low quality codec intended for speech with a fixed 8kHz sampling rate. There are a few other codecs supported by Chrome and Safari but not Firefox.
EPA MPG that consumers are most familiar with is miles per gallon. Corporate Average Fuel Economy is the harmonic mean. It also gives a divisor of 0.15 for EVs and E85 cars.

Doesn't solve the issue of how electricity gets to those charging stations. Specially when there will be dozens of them in that big parking lot.

Grid basically works with electricity being produced in large plant, then it's voltage is raised for long distance transmission, at other end it is lowered in stages. And all of these stages have limited capacity of how much electricity can pass through them. And there isn't too much extra in these as that would cost more. So it's a big thing to build up...
You're blessed to be able to get to sleep so rapidly. For me, the stress of that type of job + coffee would kill that ability. Even without these two antagonists I would have no hope of being able to do that.

> You don't pay income tax at tax time, it gets withheld from your paycheck on an ongoing basis.

You're shrinking the window down from a year, but does it change anything other than you might be able to get by for a couple of weeks easier than an entire year if your income dries up? Assuming monthly payments, and a loss of income on March 1st, I'm still under the impression that UBI will give you $1,000 to spend as of March 1st, while a negative income tax will make you wait until April 1st, no?

But also, in my world there are no paychecks or ongoing regular income and income isn't reported until the end of the year. How does that fit the model?

I suspect that tesla modified the drop by giving you a battery which has a higher capacity than advertised and then borrowing from that extra capacity as the battery degrades. This works until it doesn’t and you run out of extra to borrow from. I wish the mechanics of how the battery is managed long term was more open.
I think this will not go the way you want it to. Powerful interests will certainly portray decentralized communication tools as refuges of terrorists and child predators. They may even succeed in passing legislation that targets them. It will be easier if they're riding high on the momentum of successfully "striking at bad actors, forcing them to flee to other platforms" by repealing 230. "All for it" is a good zinger, but a bad plan.
Sure, but printers have mass/volume and require energy. I think in all Van Neumann probe scenarios (which this is) the fact that you bring a micro—replicator that makes other micro-replicators is a given.
Isn't creating the appearance of this kind of consensus exactly what would happen at a pump and dump scheme at the height of the pump? First it is hold the line. Then it is buy the dip. Then everyone moves onto something else while a few decide that they are now long-term investors, or weren't in it for the money after all.
