This being China this would have been ended a long time ago if the government wanted to. In the current climate they must have reckoned that it is in their interest to keep this going, perhaps in part in order to disrupt the sale of Arm to Nvidia and/or to weigh on the outcome (I imagine they might not be keen on seeing Arm fall into American hands).
The solar roof business has always struck me as the “...and we’ll also have a city on Mars” part of the Tesla car business. It’s just seems like an economic non-starter to me.

These kind of moves seem to underscore that; they don’t seem to care about the actual business, which would require creating a lot of trust over a long period of time. This isn’t like buying a new laptop, or even a new car: you’re talking about trusting someone’s word with the roof to your home and its primary power source for the next 20-30 years.

I'm not really allowed to share numbers right now, but our algorithms produce very accurate models as compared to actual anechoic chamber measurements.

I assume you're referring to something like this: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/02/170203102740.h... but this isn't a scalable transmission system since it's based on single photon detection, and single-photon detection is not a high bandwidth communications ability because you have to discriminate the photons. It's a far cry from "current laser communications".

I know nothing about Android development with Gradle (or Android development in general, for that matter). I feel that is where a lot of negativity in this thread comes from. But then it's not per-se Gradle who is to blame; it's this specific use case of Gradle with Android which apparently is giving people a poor experience (e.g. lacking documentation).

> You are probably doing a bit simpler stuff, if that basic tutorial suffices you.

I've written a couple Gradle plugins, one of them was to build and test programs in our custom DSL. This exposed me to all facets of Gradle, because whatever Gradle offers to compile Java, Kotlin, ... you will most likely use for another language as well. I could not have written these plugins without the Gradle documentation. But again, it's totally unrelated to Android development.
Indeed. Even most of the states with low density tends to have most of their population in much smaller urban areas with density comparable to European countries with decent systems.

E.g. Utah has a population density of 14km^2, similar to Norway. But like Norway, Utah has most of its population in a small portion of the area - the Salt Lake City–Provo–Orem Combined Statistical Area makes up 82% of the population.

Nebraska has a density of 9.63km^2, but Omaha-Council Bluffs + Lincoln makes up more than half the population (and that's ignoring the Iowa side of Omaha-Council Bluffs)

There are plenty of metropolitan areas like this in the US that may not have the density to justify much of an expansion to rail between them, but that are dense enough that a more rail oriented infrastructure within them would be possible.

And as you point out, this is with current US urban planning. If an expansion of rail is combined with adjustments to urban planning to encourage construction aligned with expanding transport systems, it'd become even more viable (e.g. near automatic planning permission for higher density near stations would probably in itself do a lot)
I'll need to re-read it at some point with a fresh perspective, but after reading it just now I'd love if this could be required reading for anyone engaging in political arguments on the Internet. It puts into words what I've been trying to find a way to convey for a long time: there probably isn't a conspiracy and "they" probably aren't evil - it's all just emergent behavior in a system simply following the rules of information spread and human attention (also capitalism). No idea what to do about it, but it helps to keep this in mind.

Steam has the promoted carousel, "players like you" suggestions, curator suggestions, the discovery queue, reviews, new release announcements, the startup splash, seasonal sales, wishlist alerts, screenshots and promo videos...

It doesn't perform the same hard editorial winnowing as brick and mortar, no, and in a digital world it's hard to see why it should. The long tail has fans too and they were terribly served by the old system. But it's hardly fair to call Steam marketing "nothing".

Edit to add: the digital stores also provide an update channel, something which had no real equivalent back in the brick and mortar world. That has real business value.

Hi Ivan, Photopea is awesome. I'm glad to know that it's really well profitable. I was wondering, do you have other apps you want to build and you stay focused on Photopea?
I write fairly well. I’ve been writing for most of my life. Written presentation isn’t actually as valuable as you might think. It seems that people read a lot less, these days, than they used to. I’m told that YouTube videos and podcasts are more likely to garner attention, and I have a voice made for silent films, and a face made for radio.

Also, even that writing skill has been greatly refined and improved over the last three years; since I left my last job.

Funny. Deciding not to pursue employment seems to have helped me to improve some of the skills employers might actually notice (I consider them fairly “superficial,” but they are what tend to attract attention). I feel that the really valuable stuff, like an expert grasp of Apple development, running a geographically-distributed team for decades, and a long history of releasing high-quality, finished product, is not so obvious (or valued).

I was talking, recently, with a former employee, who had gone through the interview process for a FAANG. He made it through the whole thing, and may get an offer, which he’ll likely decline (he took a job at a corporation that will probably treat him well, but won’t pay as much). What he described, sounded a lot more like a hazing, than a serious evaluation. I’m not about to put myself through that kind of crap for any amount of money. I have too much self-respect. I feel he made the right choice. He had basically made up his mind, fairly early in the process, and really went through the motions to learn and practice (he presents quite well). I feel that they missed out on a pretty damn good engineer, but maybe they weren’t really looking for what he offered.

Being treated with respect by our employer is important. I always treated my employees with respect, and was able to keep the team together, under rather stressful conditions, for decades. Most of my team consisted of highly experienced and skilled engineers, with families and extracurricular lives. In the last couple of years there, we worked with an SV startup, and I got to see, up close and personal, what working in SV is like. I had been in a “silo” for a quarter-century.

It was quite sobering.

I feel that the industry has become incredibly vicious and downright mercenary, over the years. It’s always been a business, and competitive, but the zeitgeist is much nastier, these days, than it was, when I was younger.

It’s kind of disappointing. Money has leached the fun from tech. I’m really sorry for the younger folks coming into the field. They won’t ever have that sense of wonder, adventure, and community that I enjoyed.
Except for the "evil" part, isn't that exactly what's happening?

> Unfortunately, the only way to combat this is by restricting the free market and becoming more insular - like Trump and his administration tried to do with raising more taxes on stuff from China.

There is another way than taxes: impose (or, where they exist, drastically increase) minimum standards upon products and manufacturing practices, similar to how we have existing laws about e.g. animal care, and actually enforce them both inside the market (to prevent locals from short-cutting, e.g. by using undocumented immigrants as farm labor) and outside the market (to combat stuff like outright slavery).

> Factory farming is bad, animals are bred to grow chomnk within weeks and it's atrocious, but this organic meat is twice as expensive for the same product, so ????

For food especially, there is another problem - minimum wages are way too low and rents too high, both in the US and EU. Way too many people have to "choose" low-quality or exploitatively-made food simply because they already are struggling to make ends meet.

And of course people are going to get annoyed at politics if they can see rising food prices, which means (together with legal bribery aka "donations" from Big Ag) politicians don't like to impose or tighten standards in agriculture.

Fix minimum wages and people will automatically go for healthier food.
I would love a version without the security system. Personally I don't need it.

Also I would like to know how easy it is to change the tires. I had a Xiaomi scooter, which got a flat on the front wheel. Unfortunately trying to change that tire proved itself so hard that I in the end scrapped it.
I would like to depend on China in the same way I would like to depend on the US. We live in a global world and it has the advantage that we can get best e-scooter from China, the best operating system from the US and the best car from Germany. It is really a boon for everyone.

So a train driver closed the doors 2 minutes early once, letting a lawyer who could prove he was on time stranded in the train station instead of appearing in court, and now our world has changed. This is a true story, and this is really the beginning of the change. They also hired people from the airplane industrie, so they now control some stuff in the station instead of during the travel, robbing everybody of more time. It just baffles me that I can't rush to the train and buy my ticket inside, where I have nothing better to do anyways.

Its still a poor version of the internet when compared to a PC (laptop/Desktop).
Yes. If it's not used by the host at all.
Yup. These days if it's more than a few lines, I write it in Perl instead if it's for personal use, or Python if it's going to be shared (Python just takes me more effort still).

For all the vaunted Unix Philosophy it's amazing how clunky some of it is. Countless shell scripts still trip over spaces in filenames. Of those that don't, nearly all of them will still be confused by any unusual characters like newlines. If you want something done properly, you have to pull out a proper scripting language, to have readdir() and the ability to pass arguments directly to a process.

Even Perl, which generally excels in such tasks has weird lapses in convenience. You can run a command with one line of code without the possibility of confusion with `system("ls", "-l", $dir)`, but you can't get its output that way. There's no version of `system` that'd allow you to both explicitly specify each argument to the process, and obtain its output. You either use backticks and risk quoting trouble, or need to use `open`, which is a lot more verbose.

It's interesting that it took Microsoft to do a new approach in this regard. PowerShell has its amount of weirdness I really hate, such as that the environment escapes the program into the commandline, but it's really refreshing how it dispenses with brittle grep, awk and cut stuff.

It is just a natural case of the exponential distribution, which is widely used to model expected waiting time. I wouldn't call it 'rare'.

Absent other observations and/or priors, the best estimate of your expected waiting time is the amount of time you have already waited.

So if you've been waiting 10 minutes for something to arrive, your best estimate of how much longer you have to wait is 10 minutes.

If you've been waiting 10 years for a tech to become outdated, your best estimate for how much longer it will take is 10 years.

People usually use buses as an example. So it makes sense: if the bus is supposed to come every few minutes, and it hasn't come in the last 15 minutes, then odds are something is wrong thus increasing the prob that the additional wait will also be 15 minutes.

If I had to venture an analysis it would be.

The difference between Zimbabwe printing a ton of money and us printing a ton of money boils down to social capital, cultural capital, political capital & influence. The US has all of these in spades, which Zimbabwe never had. This allows the us to exert an outsized amount of influence on shaping the story, which in turn allows it to print money with impunity.
