As you said yourself, Windows containers is a whole different thing that only runs on Windows, and is only for Windows ( you can't run a Windows container on Linux for instance). Hence it's more like *BSD Zones that just calls itself the same as Linux containers, and CLI compatible with Docker, and not in any meaningful way related to actual Docker and Linux containers.

PS: why would anyone use Windows for IoT stuff? Seems like a complete waste of resources. And in general, Windows containers are very rare in the wild

A couple more advantages for the power plant:

• The power plant doesn't have to move. You can attach all kinds of stuff to it to capture its emissions and do something with them other than discharge them into the atmosphere.

You are much more limited when it comes to doing that for a car engine. You have weight, volume, size, and power constraints on car attachments that you do not have on power plant attachments.

• You can build power plants far away from high population areas. This doesn't help with emissions like CO2 that are harmful no matter where they are emitted, but for various noxious emissions that harm people who breath them it matters.

Car engines emit their noxious emissions in the cities in the midst of large populations.

It should be noted that if you are up for renovating an old home in a small town, there are no lack of cheap, abandoned homes in the USA either. Or, just buy land and build the home from the ground up. At the end of the day, your money and energy are going to go into the renovation or construction, not initial purchase prices.
For those not reading the article: the purpose is to have better customer engagement, not to affect security or privacy in any way. They have a fractured ecosystem (customer-wise) and it makes people's lives annoying. (It's also a missed opportunity to simplify business intelligence)

The benefit to you, the consumer, is deeper connection to the AWS ecosystem. Your contributions can be tracked on a dashboard and added to a virtual resume, so you don't have to list every god damn service and account you've worked with in your resume. You can more easily contact support across accounts and services, forums, etc. If you've ever gone, "shit, in what account/region did I use that one S3 feature before?", you could look it up in your global user history.

It's the same thing as having one GitHub account that lists all your contributions across orgs/repos. You can always create another GitHub account linked to another key/email/identity.

Solving this is a good idea, and can be done without much technical work, but it won't be, because of their business model.

This is what Google already does: all your "stuff" is linked to a Google account across all their products/services, because their bread and butter is knowing who "you" are everywhere, so they can make money off "you".

AWS doesn't care who "you" are because (outside of Amazon Prime) they don't make money off "you", they make money when you pay them. Very different business model. There's effectively no business case to track "you" everywhere, so they're not going to put in the work.

But actually, this could be solved easily with PGP keys and a database of databases. Add your public key to every system that AWS has (or they can add it for you, based on your email address). They can look up your general information in any public key server. And if they need verification of who you are, just send them a signed E-mail or file or something. It would be tedious to do this manually for every service, so they can architect some internal service to map public keys to internal services to hopefully get the human validation part down to just one time.
I agree with your last point. I don’t own a truck because I can rent an 8 foot bed truck at uhaul for <$100 with little notice. It’s been fine.

But range “anxiety” (concern?) has stopped me from buying an electric car so far (though the next one will be).

Your first example doesn’t account for variance, charging where you wind up, and fluctuations in demand.

Most people travel on busy travel days. So this could be a problem if I’m going to the beach on a Saturday. Suddenly I’m in line behind 3 other cars that drove the same distance to minimize the number of charges they need between my city and the beach. So I now need to wait 1 hour before I can start charging, and I don’t have enough fuel to get to another charger. Now I arrive at the beach house and I either can only slow charge or need to find a charger.

I can also go 500 miles on a tank of gas. That’s one trip without stopping (realistically 250 miles over 3.5 hours of highway driving). That’s right on the edge of charging, and then it’s making a 3.5 hour trip a 4 hour trip, which makes a difference. That’s an hour out of the weekend.

You don't have to imagine it, similar rules exist here in America too. They're called "historical districts" here; the only difference is usually it's done for the benefit of the rich owners to protect their generational wealth, rather than at the cost of poorer owners who cannot afford the high cost of historically accurate maintenance.

I disagree. Parsing "loose coupled" text and converting it to the format that a different tool expects is a rather non-trivial problem, and one that's often poorly specified to begin with; converting structured outputs is generally straightforward in comparison.

Where is the clue and creator talent going?

Is current usage an indication of attraction (appeal) or of frustration (lack of a viable alternative)?

That said, the problematique of distinguishing short-term and long-term benefits (or harms) is a difficult one. It's inherently one that markets fail at fairly spectacularly, though so do numerous other systems.

I'd ... expect ... that there's some prior literature on this in the media space. It's also in large part the domain of aesthetics in philosophy.

There are a few institutions which have managed to retain a high quality standard over time. At the scale of the Internet, I'd nominate HN, and largely credit its moderation for that. Having principles, values, and an enforcement mechanism for those helps.

At a larger and longer-term scale, universities are among the very longest-lived and highly-durable human and social institutions. I'm not sure of all the reasons for this, and it's possible that in some cases this is a historical accident. It's also true that there have historicially been tremendous barriers to entry. Oxford and Cambridge in England / the UK had a chartered monopoly on all higher education until the 19th century. Even after the removal of that protection, they've remained highly durable as elite institutions.

> This is about the iPad, a completely different class of device, where it makes sense it would be shared, at least within a family, and has nothing to do with personal pizzas.

It would be very awkward, even if you had multiple user accounts. How do you deal with things like notifications on the lock screen for messages, which can be very personal. There is so much personal stuff on my iPad, it would be like sharing a toothbrush. Sure, you could do it, but why would you ever want to ?

Computers have become deeply personal devices, to the point that having to keep personal stuff off them would negate a lot of their utility. Is there still a point to having shared computers ? Do people still do that ? Even my parents, who are in their late 60's and care little about technology both have their own personal laptops.

I like the idea! This makes interviews a bit more paperwork (people need to sign NDAs and stuff) and it's surely not perfect [0], but there is probably no perfect approach and this is a lot better than most other forms of interviews. It also helps the Interviewee to find out whether he likes his daily work.

I've done something that sounds similar with bash scripts and systemd path units. Every time I modify a configuration file from any of a number of paths I'm interested in versioning, I get a prompt to supply an optional commit message, and the change is automatically committed and pushed to remote. It's not the whole file system, but the commit messages on configuration file changes have come in handy at least once.
I think psychology, cars in the US are connected with independence and liberty in the US rather than just utility. If your car fails to let you be independent (because it can’t do something you only need three times in your life) then maybe that is actually a big failure of its “promise” to give you independence and personal liberty and that therefore decreases your perception of the value of the car by a lot.

I realise this whole argument for pricing the car is ridiculous from a rational standpoint but I think it matters more how it feels to ordinary Americans.

Is it possible to pay someone in the US without getting their SSN/EIN? In other words, is there a way to do this without any major strings attached in either direction? I think that's the impediment for most orgs. By the time you've gotten to the interview process most companies have invested thousands of dollars per candidate in the process, adding on a $500-1k cash outlay per short-lister would be a rounding error.

Also, giving someone an actual backlog item would turn off most companies, but building a representative task where you vet performance against your current staff seems to be reasonable.

> People don't want to buy two cars

I mean, shouldn’t that be obvious?

There’s a bunch of fixed costs to owning a car (space to store it, registration, insurance/vehicle duty, servicing and maintenance) that vary directly with the number of cars owned (yeah, I know maintenance/insurance gets more expensive if you’re doing above-average mileage but that’s on top of a mostly fixed base) and not the number of miles you drive.

I guess the Renault Zoe, with its battery rental model, is a nod to the direction the automakers really want. Instead of buying more than one car, you can buy none and rent the one you want!
External paid tools like TubeBuddy and VidIQ allow you to do that. Most large channels use them for constant testing.
Why is the Mirai heavier? Approx 1920kg vs 1611kg (depending on model, year, range).

I'd expect the business part of FCEV to be lighter. The tanks, fuel cell stacks, converter, etc vs a big ass Li-ion battery.

My first guess is the Mirai frame's safety features were double sized. Being the first product to market, Toyota was probably extremely risk adverse.

I haven't found any Mirai teardowns (a la Munro & Assoc, AvE).

I also couldn't find any weight comparisons of Tesla and Toyota electric motors.

What would a Model 3 with FCEV look like? Replace BEV with FCEV, keeping Tesla's motors.

We've seen that Tesla is obsessed with weight reduction and simplification. Like the Toyota of yesteryear. I'd love for Toyota to do it again for FCEV.

Forensics is full of gee-whiz-cool csi stuff which eventually is shown to be worthless. Polygraphs are a great example; they're still very wisely used in the US, despite piles of evidence showing they're prone to both false positives and false negatives. Sibling comments saying they aren't forensics because they've been discredited are missing the point: these are typical crime tech, and have been lately discredited, but are still in use in the US regardless.

Putting in a 12V classical car battery makes a lot of sense.

Sadly I don't remember all the details but:

- You want a 12V circuit to be able to use "standard car components".

- You want to be able to power some components of the car separate from main battery in a way which can be powered from the outside (e.g. by replacing the 12V battery or attaching cables to it).

- Just because a batter is well suited to drive a car motor doesn't mean it's also well suited to power a AC, entertainment system etc. Especially it might not be good at only powering such a system (i.e. it might not be good at such outputting some comparatively small load without to much peaks, loss or similar).

I'm pretty sure you can find some resources on the internet which explain this is more detail with more technical knowledge :=)

But just the fact that it allows you to "have a electric system like every other car" when it's not driving or charging makes it probably worth it for the manufacturer. And I would not be surprised that even if 12V Acid batteries go away EV still would have a secondary battery replacing it.
I’m bookmarking this thread for later. So much useful information here that can help me in the future :)

To be honest the DNS resolution stack on macOS is just bad IMHO.

Some binaries (mostly *nix ones) rely on /etc/resolv.conf, some other rely on the DNS settings that can only be configured via the GUI or scutil.

On top of that, but this is a totally personal opinion, the DNS stack on macOS is just hell to be configured properly.

It makes sense in the US, where space is cheaper and bigger and you have to drive everywhere, but not anywhere else. I saw a US car with the embassy flag in the streets of Malta. The car was the size of the road, the driver was having a lot of trouble making simple turns in the "narrow" streets and gave up trying to do a 3-point turn. Probably could never find street parking for it, has to be a garage. I never saw an American-made car for American use before and I was amazed at how huge it was. You do see a local limo once in a while, but their drivers are usually more savvy as to where they can go with it.
