So guy walks out into the forest to build an off grid cabin, just like his grandfathers used to and films it to the slightest detail, keeping placing the camera around for nice shots (like the one where chips fly right towards the lens).

I don't know... sounds more like "hey, I thought I'd make a hit video that would attract a lot of on grid feedback, unlike my grandpa', who probably wouldn't give a fuck about what the world thinks about his cabin".

Now don't get me wrong, it is OK to create a video on anything, including on how to build a cabin or your experience on building a cabin (which is different) or your experience on living alone for a year (I guess this is not what he did), but this just doesn't add up to me.
All UK AZ vaccines are being manufactured in the UK, the UK government funded these. The UK did not take part in the EU vaccine procurement program.

It all comes down to cost. PV cells themselves have gotten very cheap, and the majority of the cost is the installation itself. If you have an older home, you can be out $10k+ just for new shingles and electrical wiring. Having the solar panels installed at the factory while the car is being built could be a big cost savings.
There are several advantages compared to CSV, JSON or other non-columnar formats as far as analytics is concerned which are typically not transactional.

And with projects like Apache Iceberg you can also have ACID transactions which will make it easy to update or delete just using SQL. This really opens up the separation of compute and data and you can use any engine you want (spark, drill, hive, impala, athena, dremio, redshift spectrum etc) on top of your files.
Yeah, for me, Java 16 bringing record classes (data classes/case classes etc.) to the table is making Kotlin less compelling.

Simply because using Kotlin brings in more moving parts. For example: https://docs.micronaut.io/latest/guide/index.html#kotlin

> When you use any Micronaut AOP Advice, it creates a subclass at compile-time to provide the AOP behaviour. This can be a problem because Kotlin classes are final by default. If the application was created with the Micronaut CLI, the Kotlin all-open plugin is configured for you to automatically change your classes to open when an AOP annotation is used. To configure it yourself, add the Around class to the list of supported annotations.
My team as well has fixed a lot of flaky tests by reducing the number of places we use docker. It's the most finicky part of our infrastructure. I always wonder what it would be like if comments were tagged with the technologies in use by the commenter; would we find that the strongest proponents of docker are working in stacks that have a poorer isolation/deployment story? I remember trying to package Ruby apps and thinking "huh, this is a pain." If that was the world I was in, I can see why shipping an image of my OS is a lifesaver.
The default configuration.nix created by the NixOS installer[0] is a KDE environment already, and it's relatively simple to expand and iterate your system configuration (no restart required!).

Ford Mach-E beats Tesla Model Y in real world range test
I recently did a review of just what happened during the asteroid/comet impact and afterward, and it was insanely bad. And not limited to near the impact site, either, as ejecta shot back into space and rained down on the whole planet. The atmospheric temperature was well above boiling, rain of fiery stones starting literally all the world’s forests on fire, earthquakes of 11 on the Richter scale. For those within visual distance of the impactor, flesh would turn to flame due to the intensity of the light. Massive inland tsunamis. Followed by years and decades of dark winter (50 degrees below average) and then 5 deg C global warming for thousands of years.

Almost everything would’ve been dead on land within hours. That species survived means a few individuals survived. Something like 99% of everything living on land would’ve been killed early on. No exclusively land-based tetrapods over 25 kilograms survived.

There are two separate concerns here:

1. Some sites lock accounts on reports rather than just the offending content or have YouTube-style systems which aren’t the DMCA. That’s an indirect problem especially when, as in the latter case, it’s probably a private deal where YouTube avoided lawsuits by agreeing to spare the major holding companies the expense of filing DMCA complaints.

2. The DMCA has penalties for false claims but they’re almost never enforced. This is the best area for reform: if someone’s bot incurred liability for every claim where it misidentified the material or hit a fair use case (e.g. police officers playing music loudly to make YouTube auto-block recordings of them) they would quickly start improving those systems and adding human checks.
The thing is that this isn't reported even as a side effect, that's why there's an ongoing investigation.

Or even porting accidents. If anything goes wrong when you are switching carriers and intentionally having your number ported to the new carrier, you could be left with a non-working number until you get it resolved (which can be difficult because your phone is no longer working...).

And even if nothing goes wrong, it can take up to a day for the number to port in the US. That's a day without being about to login to anyplace that requires SMS 2FA.

A TOTP app on my phone, on the other hand, works fine regardless of whether or not my phone number currently works with the SIM in that phone.

I'll let the live theatre industry know they no longer exist.

Snark aside, I think there are people who make a living creating things that don't rely on copyright (music artists that make their living off merch and live shows, theatre as mentioned above), and even if there weren't, that's not particularly surprising because copyright laws exist - without them, there would be stronger incentives to discover other revenue streams.

I concur with your technical argument, except for the trust of what's being built. I have repeatedly found the shared state cache to be the achilles heel of my builds. You never want to have a false-positive hit in your cache, yet yocto has repeatedly bit me with that. I have had instances where bitbake claimed it was done, just to find wrong or missing artifacts in my image. Cleaning and rebuilding from scratch is a continuous exercise that's IME sadly necessary. ...let alone letting others use my build directories!

I accept yocto's right to exist, but I'm far from being happy for using it.

The worst part isn't that companies go out of business, they probably won't, but that after a few rounds of one big state contract only one company will have the capacity to even bid for the contact. That one big company will then subcontract lots of little local delivery contracts. The one big company will have then effectively replaced the government in that it will manage salt delivery across the state.

I felt the exact same way until last year. Java 8+, IntelliJ IDEA, and Lombok combined massively reduced boilerplate.

Groovy was great for “more than Bash” and DSLs.

I was wrong. Last year we gave Kotlin a try as a team and at this point we’re 100% Kotlin where we would’ve been using Java or Groovy (which would be the vast majority of our code).

Spring and IDE support has made this transition easy. Coroutines are great for the type of code we write, SAM advances in Kotlin 1.4x have removed the last couple “I like the way Java handles that better”. Best off, all of those libraries we already created and use are still completely usable, we didn’t have to rewrite anything.

For me nullability checks by default, synthetic/map backed properties, extension functions, inline/reified functions, and coroutines have so drastically improved the readability AND conciseness of our code I can’t imagine going back.
You are setting yourself up for failure with the "I want FAANG money & benefits" right from the get go. That happens to the top 1%, all other work their asses off or get lucky.

Bus roofs are much better for solar than compact cars and you have a use for that incidental power in a way a car does not.

As for the car, I imagine people will burn the energy and more by turning on the air conditioning when they get into their hot car that they intentionally parked in the sun.

Did you glue(/etc) the panels to the roof or did you have to mount them on standoffs?

> you willingly bought an unsupported model

I think most people on HN are comfortable doing a bit of research to see when a device will stop receiving support, but I don't think that's reasonable to expect from everyone.

If I walk into a shop and buy a phone, new in the box, it seems pretty reasonable to assume that it's operating system will work with whatever apps I install from it's built in store, and that it will receive security patches for at least a few years. That seems to me like a pretty low bar, but it's absolutely not the case in the Android ecosystem.
People on HN are technical, so we're discussing technical reasons. However, that's not really how the government works.

USPS leadership had instructions to electrify the fleet. For whatever reason, they decided they didn't want to. Maybe they didn't want to deal with a risky change, maybe they thought it would hinder meeting their other obligations. Doesn't matter. They decided they didn't want to do it.

Their next step is then to write requirements in their rfp such that they can select a contractor that cannot meet the electric mandate. This allows them to legally pass the buck for the electric thing to their contractor, who will get paid big dollars to "develop" electric vehicles that their customer doesn't want.

Congress gets to brag about their environmental contributions, USPS gets the vehicles they want, and the contractor gets a sizable sum to do nothing. Win-win-win.
Gumroad is an interesting cautionary tale for employee equity compensation.

The company was declared to have failed several years ago. Employees were laid off and the investors released the IP (built by the early employees) to the founder as a token of goodwill. Presumably, they thought he might use it to start a new company. Story here: https://www.businessinsider.com/startup-failure-gumroad-why-...

However, he continued running the company with new part-time employees, minus original investors and minus the early employees who built the company. Apparently the company succeeded enough that it’s now worth $100 million. Early employees who built the original site presumably don’t have equity because they were laid off and their options expired worthless as they were told the company had failed.

On one hand, it’s great to see a founder persevere and rise from the ashes. On the other hand, watching the early employees lose out on their equity because they were told the company was a failure is not cool.

I’ve made some money from startup options through my career so I won’t agree that they’re worthless as often claimed. However, this is a good reminder that the game is very stacked against the employees.
So not only do I have to pay for tires, I have to pay for storage. If this is made mandatory, there's going to be a lot of people who can't pay.
I can attest. This happened to my wife 15+ years ago. The reaction began after two doses of Levaquin and was 3 months of non-stop living hell. Seriously painful neuropathy, burning all over her body. Profuse sweating all night. Brutal nightmares. Brain fog. Crippling pain in her appendages, melting walls. Extremely distressing.

The doctors were completely dismissive of and uninterested in the symptoms -- it really shook my faith in medical practice. We were on an oddessey to determine what was wrong and could be done to help. It took her 6 months to resume walking more than a short distance. She still has foot and hand problems from permanent neuropathy that affect her daily.

A few years after, Levaquin was black-labelled, and I believe no longer the first line of defense for children at least. The whole thing still burns me.

I suspect this sort of information is no longer rare but if anyone is having this experience then a GABA agonist like benzodiazepine may help you, but be extremely careful as they are quickly dependence forming and must be weened. Small dose.

> and I always think, to be able to take right decisions, you need to have a lot of real life experiences

As a “junior” person, I generally agree with this. But not prescriptively, more like a rule of thumb.

Age and life experience are not exactly connected. A younger person could have more life experience than an older one, depending on the intensity and selection of their past experiences.

So although I agree that life experience often helps you be a better manager, and junior people often have less, I don’t think that fact justifies a prejudice.

I mean the scientific system and the vaccine/medication authorization process in general in the western world. (I don't know about the other parts, so can't comment.) Yes, I completely beleive that process of the FDA and/or the EMA can be improved and if so, it should. Still:

- your best bet is trusting the current system as of now

- improving the system is part of the system. That's what's hard for e.g. science denialists to understand. (Don't get me wrong, I'm not hinting you are one of them, just came to mind.)

It's not hard to imagine that rushed trials, rushed production and pressured approvals might not lead to the best process.

Next to that: Over the last 50-60 years approved medicines with the backing of more extensive clinical trials have been withdrawn. So the whole process in itself isn't flawless.

I'm not saying the vaccines are unsafe or all the processes are wrong, but many people who are wary are often put in a corner of conspiracy theorists and I don't think this is fair.

Why?

Here you have to buy access to certain frequency ranges(big money required). The bidding happens from time to time. Building the network infrastructure is not cheap either and requires specialists to work for you.

I'd rather buy that 4G from a company that can deliver it everywhere I go than move backwards in progress to use some random WIFI hosted by Joe that fights over the same frequency as John's across the road.

The "cartel" networks work pretty good tbh. They just have stagnated in everything else but networking.
The Ioniq 5 also come with a Vehicle-to-Load or V2L. This V2L port can charge other electrical appliances including EV cars as well. Since the charging time is very fast for the car itself (16 minutes to 80%), it is very interesting concept that perhaps can enabled Uber like mobile on-demand car charging fleets service that can come to charge EV cars on the road that low on battery [1].

Alberta gets too cold for road salt to be used which is why they use gravel. Though, I agree and would like to see gravel used in Ontario as it is much better for the environment. We are seeing a significant rise in the salinity of our rivers and, more concerning, groundwater drinking wells.
This is a great rule of thumb which helps build a kind of intuition around performance I always try to have my engineers contextualizing. The "lazy and good" way (which has worked I'd say at least 9/10 times in my career when I run into these problems) is to find a way to reduce data cardinality ahead of intense computation. It's 100% for the reason you describe in your last sentence -- it doesn't just save on hardware resources, but it potentially precludes any timespace complexity bottlenecks from becoming your pain point.
Grit and salt are two tools used for different temperature.

Salt is better when the weather is close to 0 celcius.
Grit is better when it's colder.
