The CyberTruck starts at $39,900. Ford has to be in that ballpark to compete if they want to remain a going concern.
This is such a silly subject, I wonder what I said in the above comment that started this. I can just as easily say that it is completely impossible to recreate the experience of chocolate brownie with meat.

But that is not the point. I bet you only love seared medium rare centercut piece of beef tenderloin because you have learned to appreciate it. I on the other hand haven’t. The mere thought of eating beef gives bad taste in my mouth.

I bet there are million things that exists that you could learn to love even more then seared medium rare centercut beef tenderloin and I bet more then 95% of these are plant or mushroom based. Things like seared medium rare centercut matsutake mushrooms, or lightly baked eggplant paste, or raw kelp, or whatever.

> From an athletic or 'health' perspective, these plant-based meat substitutes have way too high fat content. You can get 93+% lean beef with 3-4 grams of fat per 20~ grams of protein, or even higher with game meat. None of the plant proteins appeal to a healthy eater, with the high coconut/canola/sunflower oil content.

Agreed — but it's an apples to oranges comparison you're making. Highly processed foods of all sorts have added oil.

A more productive line of questioning would compare game meat with whole food plant based alternatives like raw soybeans and lentils. I say this because my hangup with veganism used to be exactly yours here. I used to think there was no way to get adequate macros with vegan food, but it's definitely possible to hit your target macros with determination. Key to turning the corner in my understanding was realizing the fiber content (in grams) must be subtracted — at least in part — from the total carbohydrate content.

Most legumes are essentially a 1:2 ratio between protein:carbs, with negligible amounts of fat. Assuming a target intake of 1.4-1.6g of protein per kg bodyweight, you can readily hit your macros even on a calorie restricted diet (~1600 kcal).
Just like the Model 3 is $35k ;)
Why is sheer bigness something to love about it? They literally don’t fit in many people’s garages anymore, they are so big. Honestly, can you help me understand?
Because producing vaccines at scale is nothing like webshit at scale?
I think it's pretty clear at this point that fines do not effectively deter white collar criminals.

A quick search turns up reporting Lego as a close second for highest revenue of a toy company worldwide.

> Namco Bandai was the industry leader with the highest revenue at over 6.6 billion U.S. dollars ... Danish company Lego, known for its interlocking plastic bricks, closely followed Namco Bandai with over 5.78 billion U.S. dollars in revenue.

I love stories of people thoughtfully doing their jobs and having huge life saving impact like this.

I was saying to my wife on a recent drive, that there's some civil engineer somewhere who figured out you can embed those little light reflectors into highway lane markets, and some other engineer who figured out those perpendicular cuts in the asphalt that vibrate your car before you run off the road.

Both of these probably naturally arose in the context of their work, and both of these things passively save hundreds of lives daily.
Go sit it one of them. Its like a throne. They are amazing. There is a reason they are the best selling vehicle.
So telsas "million mile" drivetrain has a a requirement to do those miles in under 7 years - seems legit.
I dare you to make the case for this causing 2M incremental deaths. Please proceed.
They stopped offering the 35k model because most people opted for the SR+ at 38,800
I get it, but when you’re not driving autonomously it would be nice to have basic driving controls.
They thought they did. I heard they did a really good job of it, too. But it doesn't matter how much work you put into it, you can still be wrong.
This book hadn’t been written yet when I was in undergrad. But this year, I found it and worked through it. Even with 20 years writing software professionally under my belt, the ways this book shifted my perceptions on topics I assumed I knew well was surprising!

I also find it charming that the book is co-authored by a married couple.
Quoting the second (Babylonian) tablet in the article: "he suffers paralysis up his form... day and night he does not sleep, he continually sees frightening dreams, he continually suffers paralysis... he forgets the words that he speaks"

For someone suffering from such severe anxiety, meditation alone might not help much, if at all. Imagine trying to meditate in the middle of a cataclysmic earthquake. That said I believe nowadays meditation is often recommended as an accompanying therapy or for remission, and it helps for many. But "To alleviate anxiety, do this..." is too broad. And apparently, it was already too broad 3k years ago.
I thought HN had automated systems to detect this?
It seems not. Tintagel apparently means “fort by the neck of the land” ([1]), while the etymology of tin seems to be from a proto-Germanic word for the metal.

There are a few Linux distros that use OpenRC with decent success. I run lots of FreeBSD servers, but I also run some Alpine servers, where openrc works well for me (with some s6 thrown in for a few services).
Sure, but it wasn’t available at launch and now it doesn’t exist.

I don’t have much faith in the 40k Cybertruck being widely or readily available based on that. It’s not really a dig at Tesla. Ford makes an F-150 that costs less than $30k, but most sold outside of fleets are higher trims and packed with options.
I think you are more right than wrong in your prediction, but “over the next two years” seems so incredibly optimistic that I’m inclined to call it naïveté instead.
Calling it pseudo science is more in need of a citation than the original statement.
This so much sounds like all the PR stunt cars that renault put out. You literally have to lease a battery on top of the absurd prices, and you cannot get it changed for free, even when you lease it.

Which makes all their cars basically useless after a year of usage, because the batteries are embedded in their chassis.

Every time I compare European manufacturers to Tesla and Nissan, they are such a bad joke.

Nissan has so much experience with its Leaf models, and they are dirt cheap, repairable and they work. High-end spectrum buyers will buy an all-inclusive Tesla anyways, and they won't care as much about cheap repairability.

Teslas are sadly not made for repairs, so they aren't the right car for me :(
SQL is more natural to me for this sort of declarative DSL. Is there a Pandas-like package that can use in-memory tables and accept SQL queries?

About `pd.read_sql()`. That's totally awesome.

I realized that Pandas is a very useful tool for many thousands of developers, I only have a problem with its interface. Obviously, I've been using it for many years for a reason!
/r/options and /r/thetagang are getting heavy influxes (which I think they are a little nervous about)
Just want to add here that family court comes into play anytime there are underage children involved, irrespective of whether the parents are married or not (in most states).

So not getting married provides no protection from being involved in those same, potentially endless, ongoing family court cases.
Because there was never a viable Tesla 35k car that made sense to buy.
In civil court, you basically have to prove that it was more likely than not the gas. That's really hard to do for chronic symptoms. Are you sure you didn't hit your head at some point? Does anyone in your family have any history of similar symptoms? Are you sure it isn't Legionaire's Disease, or Lupus, or some other House MD thing that only 4 people get per year?

There are tons of risk factors for everything. If you're a smoker, and you worked in an asbestos factory, did the cigarettes or the factory give you lung cancer?

I'm a little surprised that some kind of gross negligence doesn't apply, regardless of any damages proven. Perhaps there wasn't any evidence they were aware?
Seems like entrepreneurship may be a good fit for You.
Keeping (arguably, even temporarily collecting) that data is inherently a violation of the user's privacy.
what is wrong with you.... i am explaining how there are even bigger attrocities committed on either side. besides, pandits in kashmir are ethnically different from jammu dogras, ones who committed 1947 massacres so why would you even think i'd justify something. this is the kind of vile thinking that is of no direct consequence to you that is causing immeasurable harm to kashmiris
From the article:

> that “daughter-divorce” risk emerges only in a first-born girl’s teenage years
this is a very good point but what about when we have to depend on infrastructure not our own? if you aren't home, what do you do? right now, Tesla is the one company that has a 100.1% proprietary infrastructure answer of their own. gas cars have unlike electric been standard "forever".
I think it's a function of the quality of the imitation by vegetarian options. Years back I said the same think as the person you're responding to, because the "meat" was in no way a reasonable substitute. It wasn't at all similar to actual meat, so why bother calling it "meat"?

Now that they're getting close, I agree with you and it makes more sense to call it "meat" because it's very close to being indistinguishable.

I love a good hamburger or steak, but I'll happily give it up when there's something not-animal-based that's as good.
There was going to be a 2022 Lincoln SUV based on the Rivian platform but that was canceled last year.
There are so many more issues. They have lots of plants that Tesla doesn't need or want. Even worse, you can't close down those plants because of unions and politics. Tesla doesn't want unions in general.

Battery being the limiting factor means that having more ability to produce cars is basically useless.
lol. what? Even some parts of northeren Italy, and most of central and northeren France are not considered Southern Europe....

The most northeren part of 'south europe', is Trieste.... anything north of that you are in Central or Northeren Europe...

Mediterranean weather and access to the Mediterranean Sea are what defines South Europe (Portugal being an exception)

eg. Milano, most northeren part of Italy, Como, Switzerland and Austria are not South, but squarely center Europe
I'd think the thread between eccentricity and invention is the lack of fear (or ability to overcome it) about what society thinks and how it works.

Your guy down the street I guess is kinda weird, but to your point, today that level of weirdness doesn't require courage or innovative thought so probably wouldn't correlate to invention.

My hunch is that in the near future, brave "weirdness" is going to be people who dare to not be woke.
Sounds like a horrible product once reaches the environment. At least glass isn't much of an issue and wood would just decompose.
A happy little accident.
You may think that we believers are all that way, but we aren’t. As a Discordian, I believe that everyone else’s religious myths are true. Even the false bits are true in a dialectic sense. Such is life here in Plato’s Cave.

Stories are also deep magick for Discordians. They are perhaps the only tool we can use to get someone to change their mind about something important. It is only when, at long last, the fiction weaves its spell to transplant your sense of identity elsewhom that you feel true sympathy.
Fixed. Sorry bout that. There was a circular reference in there when creating a new doc.
Alright, so then $43k to compete, given typical Elon Musk numbers. Still a hard bar!
20 years (or 200k to 300k miles) is easily doable in a Toyota in an area that doesn’t get salted.

There’s a reason old 4Runners and Tacomas and Land Cruisers are worth so much, and barely come up for sale in decent condition.
An electric car should last at least as long as an ICE car... because they are simpler...
Lots of European countries joined the law that makes fossil fuel burning engines obsolete starting 2030.

So he might be right when he says the next two years, because in 5 years it will have been too late already :)
At least glass is basically perfectly recyclable though.
Here [0] is a much better post on nuclear tank concepts which actually cites primary sources:

[0] https://stalker6delta.tumblr.com/post/163384858966/for-varto...

Details especially about the nuclear power plants are scarce on account of there not being any details - these were all nothing but concepts presented at a tank design conference.
They mention having to enter insurance and other details repeatedly.

Why didn't Maryland simply create a MarylandVaxAuth site, where you create credentials and enter all your details like insurance and age.

Then their distribution centers can still have a scheduling system, but the first step is to log in with MarylandVaxAuth SSO and the 2nd step is to pick a time slot. If you already have a valid session cookie then you wouldn't need to type in your password. Just click yes allow Safeway Covid Vaccine Scheduling access to my vaccine related health details. Just need to give each partner an API key so they can set up sso and fetch patient details in case they want to automate things like checking for double-bookings or eligibility.

I think back in March people were expecting that we might need to vaccine our way out of this. It's been 10 months. Why do we only have shitty web applications? I think this is the most outrageous part. I don't understand how complicated it is to create and expand a distribution network for vaccines but I understand that building out an SSO system would dramatically help and it doesn't take 10 whole months to develop.
They might offer that, but only low volumes. They simply don't have the batteries to get anywhere close to 800k per year.

If you calculate the battery required to pull that off, its actually insane.

Ford talks a big game about electric F-150 but I bet the numbers will be more limited then many people hope.
All the identity politics aside; I find a simpler argument tob be “One can easily triangulate my real life identity, and interact with my corporal body from finding my real name, and I do not wish for that..”

I had a discussion on H.N. a while back where I found that the G.D.P.R., in fact, prohibits the collection of “biometric data” but not real name and address, which I found rather odd to say the least.

If I had to choose between my real name and address, or my retinal or fingerprint patterns ending up on H.N., I would certainly choose the latter, and I think I'm not alone in that. — it is far easier to triangulate someone's corporal body based on the former than the latter.

Ask HN:What do you really buy when you buy a song on CD? What becomes yours?
What is the meaning of it?

What become yours after the purchase ?

Some rights for the song or for the medium?

Some rights for this digital data set?

The right to listen for one particular song? But you already have such right to listen to any song!

The right to listen it many times? Same thing, you already have it.

The right to listen whenever you want? But again ... you already have this.

So they sell technical ability to listen whenever you wish one particular song and this is what you buy? but only this particular technical ability? Can you work on ability and improve it for instance?

What do you buy ? The right to initiate conversion of particular digital data into the sound wave through some specific hardware including speaker?
Amd of hardware has changed a bit?

Access to some particular data ? So once you’ve bought it you have it? Or as long as medium functioning?

If CD is broken is it still yours?

What is it really you are buying here?!

Not sure how you figure. The one that will actually be available at launch and I’m guessing most people will buy, with AWD, is $50k.
This is correct. To add to your point, it's also the respective institute's media departments. In a university for example, there's a strong incentive to hype up your research to attract young, impressionable undergraduates to your school.

Not just a journalist looking for the "next big scoop", but often a journalist looking for that at an institute that wants to also have "the next big thing".
Not everywhere, North America is only a microcosm of larger transportation solutions. I suggest checking out Eurostar or Hokkaido, one day maybe china will feel to me as accessible. https://www.chinahighlights.com/china-trains/article-seven-m...
This kind of uninformed negativity is why I'm loaded up on GM calls. GM btw, has no debt (at least in the way you are thinking).
>What we do know is that mental health, and mental health problems, exist entirely in the mind and in the body.

You believe in ghosts? Or what are you saying? Is it possible to have a depressed brain and a happy mind? Or vice versa?
I wish auto manufacturers focused on extending EV range then FSD. the buzz so much but nobody is bothered about bringing extended range to masses. People who want entry level ev can't sit for 40 minutes every week at a supercharger.
> The large company discontinues the vehicle lineup, citing overrun cost issues and market disinterest for EVs save for a few Tesla fanboy diehards.

We're at the bottom of the hockey stick here. There is no "discontinued lineup", in 10 years if you don't have a viable EV platform, you are closing your doors. It might be sooner than that.

By the time Ford even starts to see return on their $29B it's likely to be a whole new game. I wouldn't be surprised if they were acquired for the brand name or to assemble someone else's technology. Apple seems to be interested in outsourcing assembly, maybe Ford can get in on that.
Two people, chronic pain, nobody's had you try CBD edibles, or vaporizing a little CBD herb?
> Why are you interpreting what I wrote as if I claimed that people like the taste and texture of raw meat? That's probably the most uncharitable possible interpretation of my argument. Stop being ridiculous.

Sorry, you—and GPs—are putting words in my mouth. I never stated such a thing. People think they like meat, but they don’t. They only like meat after the taste and texture has been altered. Even then they probably mostly like it from force of habit.

> When it comes to actual beef, there's absolutely nothing like it yet, in neither taste nor texture, and texture is the part that is hardest to get right

This is actually the point of the debate, and it is highly opinionated so I don’t think we can see each others point of view here. But in Europe there is a trademark soy based alternative called Oumph! which is not trying to replicate meat in any way, but it is simply delicious. In my opinion the impossible meat we have here in America is simply disgusting next to it. There are so many ways to make good food with plant based food and trying to mimic one type of food that people only like after it has been prepared and spiced, just seems a little short sighted.
How to create notional feeds on social media
That just doesn't sound like the kind of activity we Americans would bother with, but thank you for the invitation I guess? :)
As someone who has recently started doing more back country snow sports the partner part of this story really rings true and thanks so much for your story. Finding someone who helps complement yourself via risk and not feeding off each other seems to be a lot more important than I've even considered. Really have a strong and open connection, not being worried about how you look, seems like its almost as important as training, because without it, your training will only go so far.
Nilered covered this last summer, as I recall, and he very much disagreed about the grain orientation not mattering.

Yes you could make it transparent, but cross grain was only slightly stronger than a stale cracker. He kept breaking the samples and gave up.
> I really love the F-150 and it's size, but I don't need all the power it comes with

Because you don't, doesn't other don't either. Quite the opposite. [and yes, I do need the >2000lb payload capacity.]
Glass doesn't decompose, it gets eventually pulverized back into sand (naturally or manually).

The issue with glass though isn't how it's handled once we're done with it. The issue with glass is energy loss. We lose a huge amount of energy to the windows in our home, and it might be worth it to make wooden window panels if it means that we end up consuming less energy HVACing our homes. Especially since house windows can be expected to last for decades, which amortizes their disposal cost nicely.

January 2020 in New Zealand we had smoke that block out the sky, making everything a weird red hue. The smoke travelled from Australia, 2645km away ( roughly the same as London to Algeria. I was amazed that the smoke could travel that far without dropping off.
Wow, I am going to use hell out of this. Such a basic idea when you think about it, but a ton of value.
What are you even talking about. Nissan sales have collapsed, the Leaf went from one of the most sold cars to small program and is being discontinued in many places. Nissan has the Ariya coming out but not much beyond, their announced targets for electrification are embracingly bad compared to basically every other auto-maker.

VWG and Renault are outselling Nissan by 2-3x in terms of BEV. And you don't have to lease the battery. The Renault Zoe is the second most sold EV in Europe.

And I'm not sure what you mean by Tesla are not made to be repaired', that not the case. Tesla doesn't deliver parts as fast as other manufacturers but there is nothing inherent that makes it hard to repair.
