That is a really good question, tbh. I've seen comparisons that show the Tesla's burning less often, but those weren't specifically post crash. A lot of ICE cars come from fuel leaks, often after major repairs and without a collision.

I'm not aware of a direct comparison of post-crash fires. Anecodally, it seems the post-crash fires are rare with the 3 and Y and much less rare with the S/X.
It’s probably worthwhile to consider both fiction and non-fiction and literature. I’d imagine fiction in particular is dying but literature and non-fiction are selling as well or better than historically, which means not mainstream but sustainable to the (very) limited count of authors capable of making it, literature in particular.

I’m not concerned if we don’t uncover the next Stephen King (he’s got a few great books though!) so long as the next Pynchon is published.
It's certainly a significant problem, and one that would cause some intense short-term pain, AND one that we should just bite the trivial cost and make a spare set somewhere for, but......

It would take years in normal times. In a crisis like this, you'd see resources allocated to transformers on the scale of (perhaps greater than) that allocated to COVID-19 vaccines and PPE, and that time scale would almost certainly be dramatically reduced.
>Unfortunately that production goes to cash crops owned by global corporations, nearly eliminating all local food production.

"Unfortunately"? Clearly you haven't heard of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparative_advantage
I have wondered a lot, though: does that mean other people would love it too? Could it be that it's somewhat unusual (it is), and that its unique qualities are super clear to everyone, and so the people who buy it love it, and the people who choose not to buy it would indeed hate it?

(I've driven one for about 10 minutes. It was fine, and maybe I'd love it if I drove it longer. Lack of tactile controls for radio and AC are a big bummer, though.)

| I think schools should be as rigorous as possible, but STEM isn’t the only path to success.

While that's true in a very realistic sense, i take issue with it because our modern economy is based in large part upon technology and theory developed by STEM workers. If you don't have people doing the hard work of pushing civilization forward, then there's nothing for the managers to manage. If America wants to remain a dominant force in the global economy, we have to be doing the things we were, educationally, in the mid-century period.

But this stuff is hard and makes your brain hurt, which is why we've experienced the "financialization" of the economy. It's just too easy to make money by moving money around these days.

Incredible as in 'that's a great deal' or as in 'that seems a ripoff'?

I find 50c to read 100GB from disk, do useful work on it (including running javascript code or ML models if you are so inclined) and returning a result in seconds... pretty damn incredible.
Given the missionary zeal of a lot of Tesla owners I wonder if that speaks to the quality of the cars or the type of people who buy them.
Well, I have some great news for you...

I've done a lot of napkin math in NaSC [0]. Unfortunately it was buggy and often crashed so I had to stop using it. I'd love for something like this that could also be checked into repo and used to "compile" into constants that can be used in code. For example: plan the resources required to run for `demand(requests)` and load that into code and run that to scale up/down replicas or something.

Infrastructure.

Everyone has a wall socket in their garage or on their house’s exterior wall. And adding an L2 charger is not costly. The public charging networks are really just a bonus, day to day charging is done at home. So the infrastructure is pretty much already in place.

There are like 15 hydrogen filling stations in the USA and those are almost entirely limited to California’s major metro regions. Building out a network for the common North American to use would require a major investment by private capital with encouragement by state and federal subsidies.

Until I think the ideal mix would be PHEVs with medium sized batteries (100 ish mile range for day trips/commuting) and fuel cells for long haul highway driving. Then you could focus on interstate highways to build out a hydrogen network. But battery tech and charging networks are advancing fast enough to make range anxiety less of an issue every day.
I have a Model 3 after maybe 7-8 new Beemers and Lexuses over the years. The Model 3 is easily my favorite car. Everything else seems like a heavy, belching dinosaur. I don't say that so much from an eco POV, as the lightness of touch of stomping on the pedal with no noise, instant acceleration, no gear changes, just an unrelenting push back into your seat - it's just "lighter" and effortless. (I know it weighs a lot, that's not my point)

The software glitches are a nuisance at times, but how many OS releases behind do you keep your phone and PCs?
Sesame Street's big success came from convincing parents that they could virtuously and effortlessly teach their kids just by turning on the TV, so the parents could then take a nap or do something else.

The reality is it's probably the most inefficient teaching method ever devised. It takes what, about a 1000 hours of watching it to teach kids 26 letters and count to 10? I don't believe passive education is effective. Even in college, I didn't learn anything from lectures unless I took notes.

SS never progresses. Every episode starts over from the beginning. It's like Groundhog Day. There is no Sophomore SS: Long Division.

Unsurprised Tesla owner here.

Tesla made driving fun again.
Now the only question is if car owners are happier than non car owners.
Yeah I think the OP is right, I interpreted it to be the choice-supportive bias, which is pretty much a known bias: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choice-supportive_bias.

> Choice-supportive bias or post-purchase rationalization is the tendency to retroactively ascribe positive attributes to an option one has selected and/or to demote the forgone options.[1] It is part of cognitive science, and is a distinct cognitive bias that occurs once a decision is made. For example, if a person chooses option A instead of option B, they are likely to ignore or downplay the faults of option A while amplifying or ascribing new negative faults to option B.

As you said, it is not limited to Teslas, of course.
Not a framework but I’ve found Ted Goas’ Cerberus templates very useful.

I customized them, extracted them into modules and created a design system which I then translated to an email CMS.

Coverage is pretty good although Outlook still glitches in some circumstances.

https://tedgoas.github.io/Cerberus/

FWIW caniemail is unreliable and does not have full coverage.

Also with this level of complexity I’d rather start with a few tested patterns than navigate the insane labyrinth of email client inconsistencies.
I seem to get a ton of compliments on it, at least (although that is likely more about the appearance than anything). And my friends who have ridden with me also seem to love it.

Hmm, re: tactile controls: these at least for me are replaced by the steering wheel controls and voice commands.
I think people are naturally going to be biased against Tesla because of all the misleading marketing. Even if the experience on its own is good, it's tainted by the way they (mainly Elon, but not exclusively) chose to sell it.

Also Tesla's go against pretty much everything that most car enthusiasts want. Personally that's why I'm biased against them, I hate having to use a touch screen to open the glove box, I hate having to press a capacitive button to switch on the turn signals, and I hate the attempt to take away the driving experience and control from the driver. Of course for the average person, a lot of those things are pros not cons.
It seems kind of MathCAD
The fact that you can say the voice command “open your butthole”, and the Charge port opens.... no other car company would ever do that. There is nothing like a Tesla
Does django sql explorer work with a snowflake database?
Only a negligible fraction of users care about this feature and it only needs to be toggled once so it's clearly in the right place.
The thing about email is that renderers aren't even implementing the same spec. There is no common subset to learn. Every client implements some vague mess of 1997-era HTML/CSS mixed with different random modern features. Any attempt to try to write anything slightly advanced manually will drive you insane. Mail clients will mangle your code in ways you can't imagine. Every client will mangle it slightly differently. Even the same client on different operating systems will behave differently.

Tools like MJML take a compiler approach to email. Why waste time trying to figure out how to implement a for loop in machine code and keep it updated every time a new processor comes out when you can just let the compiler do it?
Yeah, I was surprised by it when I first looked it up also. I think partly because most people who are demographically similar to me are on private health insurance, so I think of the US as having mostly a private system. But a little over 40% of the U.S. population has public coverage: 20% are on Medicaid or CHIP (lower-income), 18% Medicare (age 65+), and 5% military/veteran.
The title of the OP seems pretty misleading. Neither the Consumer Reports article the author refers to, or the "owner satisfaction survey" that this in turn refers to, mention "happiness". The survey and the article seem to be about satisfaction with the car itself, rather than the owner's happiness in any general sense. Which is what I and, it seems from other comments, others have interpreted the title as.

Might be worth changing the title of ths post, too.

Most users probably don't care about HTML versus plaintext emails. The ones that do care would be the ones willing to pay $0.10 extra per month to enforce plaintext receipt, or willing to dig through a few levels of configuration to enable plaintext receipt.
Paying full price to beta test a car for free while they work out the bugs on the fly and hope they don't break more things seems like a really bad purchase idea?

Not that gas cars are much better but is the "happiness" that people don't have to go a dealer and the fix is magically downloaded? Or something more than that?

Personally it would freak me out that every single thing is tracked and saved and sent to who knows who, forever. People like to argue there's no such thing as privacy but oddly they still have shades on their windows.
After what Texas experienced, a dramatic reduction hardly seems sufficient.

Here’s a primary source and more info: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6928e1.htm (https://www.diabetes.org/newsroom/press-releases/2020/ada-ca...):

Of 10,647 studied deaths between February and April 2020:

> At least one underlying medical condition was reported for 8,134 (76.4%) of decedents for whom sup­plementary data were collected, including 83.1% of decedents aged <65 years. Overall, the most common underlying medical conditions were cardiovascular disease (60.9%), diabetes mellitus (39.5%), chronic kidney disease (20.8%), and chronic lung disease (19.2%) (Table 2). Among decedents aged <65 years, 83.1% had one or more underlying medical conditions. Among decedents aged ≥85 years, 69.5% had one or more underlying medical conditions. Diabetes was more common among decedents aged <65 years (49.6%) than among those aged ≥85 years (25.9%).

It reinforces what is taught by other methods. I’ve witnessed that personally. It is definitely not a good teaching method by itself.
Autism has comorbidities like digestive problems, sleep problems, seizures, sensory issues, and weight control. One sees mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and increased rates of burnout which do not seem to be merely environmentally caused. You might be able to spin something like anxiety as a sometimes benefit, but it's hard to spin regular digestive issues as being some kind of useful variation.

The author gets it right that how autistic people work mentally isn't so much inferior as it is unpopular. You can go to a psychologist talking about how difficult digestive pain and sleeplessness are for you and they will mull about how awful it must be to be so socially awful since everybody must dislike me.

People are absolutely obsessed with the idea of the social inferiority of autistics, despite evidence that they're superior at social tasks like empathizing with other autistic people [1]. Autistics can regularly show bizarrely strong "social skills" like having an immense vocabulary, overall high verbal intelligence, or perhaps a steeltrap memory for personal facts about others. People give no value to these things arbitrarily. Nowadays I can go to a hirevue interview and be algorithmically denied a job because my eye contact is poor and my large vocabulary is actually a negative because it's unusual and thus not similar to the vocab of a companies "best hires". Rather than people going "what the fuck do we actually have legal minority filtering software being used by nominally reputable companies like major banks" people are more concerned that autistics are acting too different and should be more normal.

Yet the comorbidities which impact health makes me suspect that the disorder label is still useful especially because it can lead to accommodations regarding scheduling, workplace conditions, diet, and such. We don't have a conceptual alternative to disorder/disability that allows for the accommodations needed to help people succeed. I haven't even touched on the people who have severe issues and can't live independently or provide for themselves.

> It might take a lot more energy to change a belief or network of them than not doing so.

What an interesting thought. Say a belief, a set of brain neuro-electrical structures of impression memories coupled with theory framework, could be quantified so the effort required to change the belief could be established. Like to lose belief in gravity and naturally think relativistically would cost X energy.
I think Sesame Street was designed as a vehicle for encouraging socialist revolution.

One of the biggest lessons I remember from childhood was sharing. One of the biggest. Kids are encouraged to share everywhere in the US. You can find hundreds of articles on encouraging your children to share in US parenting magazines.

That hundreds of millions of children who grew up in the US were encouraged to share as part of some kind of sinister socialist plot is... fanciful.
I agree it's ridiculous but I was expecting much worse based on the way the article was written.
I think the metal in US coins is worth something, so even assuming paper currency is worthless the coins are worth more than all of the cryptocurrency, which is worth zero.

Are Teslas still noisy on the highway? (due to letting in more road noise than other cars) Dealbreaker for me.

FWIW, I've noticed that Hasselblad lenses have the longest focus throws of any lens I've ever used.
I understand the derision here when it comes to Tesla because of a figure like Elon Musk. I can attest to it. I used to fanboy Musk but now I believe Tesla succeeds in spite of Musk. There have been too many promises from him not meeting expectations. He also seems pretty ruthless in his leadership of the organization. Just look at the history of exodus. In spite of this, I can genuinely say that out of all the cars I have driven, there is a certain joy in the driving experience of an electric car and Tesla cars without any hype are the ones offering performance, range, and updated software. It’s too bad that the other car companies are just now getting to par with Tesla’s specs. The Model 3 is also relatively priced by the way.
That's an interesting point. Though anecdotally I find the folks who really hate them sometimes have some really odd misconceptions.
Even with Rust the browser would still need multiple processes because Rust provides no way to catch a panic. The way to handle panics in Rust is to run the code in its own process and then to handle the failure of that process.
Eh, they're not that great. The problem I have with cars is that most cars in 2021 should feel like a Tesla, but auto manufacturers are allergic to innovation for some reason. So much for Audi's "Vorsprung durch Technik."

When I sit in a Tesla, I'm like, cool feels like tech we should have had in cars over a decade ago? Great, I guess.

Honestly, if you took away the fact that it was an EV, and it had just as nice a computer in it, I'd be perfectly content.

I mean seriously, I can control my light bulbs with my phone, but I can't do it with my car?
In your previous experience with FAANGs, were your requests for a higher offer taken as an affront?

I would argue it started around 2013 or 2014, but we've seen more or less the same thing. I haven't watched TV in a few years, so maybe it's gotten worse.

One thing I always thought was interesting; Apple commercials, which go out of their way to feature many types of racial minorities, do not show any:

- obese people

- weirdly proportioned people

- ugly people

- poor people

- person over 45

- meatheads

- Republican-looking people

- disabilities besides deaf, blind, and mobility, e.g. burn victims

They are into advertising to the groups that will be the best-received for their bottom line. It's no more than that, and it's foolish to think otherwise.
I don't run buggy software as a service so I don't have this problem.

Most of the games I remember from that time would only run from an installed folder on a HDD, and came with an install script to unpack a multi-disk-spanned compressed set of files from the floppies. This was presuming that you had something like a 40 to 60MB hard drive in your PC, or larger, and wanted to dedicate 10MB of it to the new expensive game you just purchased.
