Perhaps, but I think it's marginal in practice. Whether MSFT makes an internally accounted 10% margin or 10% loss on their $8bn in revenue, Apple collect >$8bn which is entirely profit.

Cooperating and accepting a slice of Google's monopoly profits is far more profitable that competing would be, in all but the most bullish scenarios.

IE, MSFT would need to be outright challenging Google's 1st place position in search marketing to have a hope of earning more than Apple do by doing nothing, spending nothing, investing nothing and taking no risks.

Also, what would it take for MSFT to compete with Google in earnest? For one thing, Microsoft would need to outbid Google for such deals. They'd need to pay Apple, Telcos, and such more than Google do now.
> It seems like disengagement numbers from testing are on the order of 10-20K miles.

That’s no longer the case. Waymo is over 30k miles per disengagement, however it’s also a meaningless number.

The point of disengagement’s isn’t a proxy for accidents it’s to avoid cars simply shutting down in traffic and make it really clear the car is confused. Waymo is operating driverless taxis with as I said over 20 million miles often with an empty car and they’re using a call center to handle edge cases. People remotely pilot the car at very low speeds when needed, but the car must come to a safe stop on it’s own.

Having someone handle an edge case every 30k miles hours for is cheap enough to be bundled into a new car’s price. Worse case they pull off the road and call a tow truck, but more normally they can get the car to a place or can safely drive. Put a drunk driver in a car with that behavior and you don’t get accidents every 30k miles.
Aside from the points mentioned in the article, I see a lot of arguments about economy: Real income isn't rising while cars are getting more and more expensive. Just checked the price of new Leaf, and it costs the same as median 1 year salary (before tax).

I think that explains why much gasoline "kei" cars (i.e. cars with less than 0.66 liter engine) are popular. They are much cheaper to buy, cheaper to maintain, etc.
A Brutal Truth of Upper Management
> If getting into top (TOP!) universities correlated with education/aptitude alone, the wealthy would pay more to get thier kids educated but the best teachers. But they don't do this, they pay to dollar for their children to get educated by the "best" schools.

Simple! People receive a benefit from peer group connections (status) and quality-based assessments (in economic terms, reputation). If you are well educated and intelligent, on average, you will have access to more resources if you are also associated with high-status institutions, such as prestigious schools and high ranked universities.

The good news is that, under competitive conditions and provided that everything else is equal, being "good at something" (reputation) eventually leads to high-status attainment. So, if you happen to receive a good education but graduate from a less prestigious university, you have an opportunity to eventually recoup the difference in resource availability (on average & assuming that your production translates to the market).

Likewise, if you're a less prestigious institution, providing a superior education and employing people who do "good research" will eventually increase your prestige.

Why not charge electric cars directly with the output of those reactors? Even if you get to higher efficiencies with the electrolysis, the overhead for handling and transporting hydrogen remains.
I don't like how all modern phones are designed for content consumption. If you try googling "android phone with a small screen", you will get articles about phones with a 5-6" screen, because this is what is considered a "small screen" nowadays.

I would easily pay $300-400 for a de-Googled Android phone with 3-3.5" screen and no bloatware. It should be just right to use apps like Uber, Telegram, or maps, but the small screen would discourage mindless media consumption.

And it would fit in pocket much better.
Unsuccessful experience of migrating applications to Kubernetes
Interesting, I wasn't actually aware of that. Checking my running server with 1024mb of RAM, docker appears to be consuming ~50mb of that. This is running 17 containers of nginx, postgres, nodejs, haproxy etc.

I'm ok with this level of overhead for the benefits of containerization - several years ago I was running a bunch of PHP sites on Apache, one was compromised and this took down the rest as well. In addition to the isolation it also simplifies my deployment story significantly.

If K3s has a similar level of overhead then I should probably move to this, something for me to look into, however my understanding was that components like etcd require a fairly significant amount of resource even for tiny one node "clusters".
> is that you can use it to also ban tobacco, and alcohol, and sugar, and red meat, and then you can move to things like sports

To be honest, IMHO both smoking tobacco and sports that cause a lot of concussions (eg. Rugby, American Football) are not going to last in the long term, or become marginal not mainstream activities.

This might involve legislative pressures on them, as well as a decline in social acceptance. In the case of Tobacco, we see this drop well advanced already. This is no bad thing, considering the outcomes from these activities.
You may be right about the harm with sugar. I think it is probably way more toxic than we give it credit for, but it's difficult to imagine any kind of regulation around it since it's so ingrained in society. When NYC for example tried to tax sodas there was massive backlash. When a smoker gets lung cancer, we tend to blame tobacco, but when someone gets diabetes we blame the individual's lack of self control. That's probably not entirely justified given the addictive potential of refined sugar.

But I think you're undercounting the harm caused by alcohol. There are diseases of abuse to consider, but the damage caused by alcohol is often more acute: traffic accidents and acts of violence are made much more likely by alcohol consumption.

Similarly, I think the harm caused by social media is also under-counted. In it's current state, it seems to cause an increase in the spread of misinformation, and a decrease in political stability and social cohesion.

> I don't have the actual prices but it's safe to assume that units with better wifi cards would have cost more. Depending on how they structured their pricing: it may have been been cheaper to get the lower-end units and install your own wifi cards rather than buy the higher-specced ones from the factory. By blocking owners from using 3rd-party parts the laptop manufacturer can squeeze more money out of customers, but in doing so also deprives the customer of traditional upgrade rights and repair rights.

If we really want to reduce electronic waste, we need to start much stricter regulations against companies about repair-hostile blocks in their electronic hardware.
I have considered different constructs like "where:" to be placed in code blocks (such as function) when working on Next Generation Shell. I have decided against because these constructs will not be executed at runtime (when the function is called) and therefore I assume it will be at least somewhat confusing.

For tests, NGS has "TEST" keyword which can be placed at beginning of any line. The test is everything till end of that line. I typically place these below functions that they test.
OnlyFans banning sexually explicit content b/C of MasterCard rules starting Oct
Interesting concept.

On the unconstructibility of efficiently running version, they scaled the 6" model to 3m while holding constant rpm to keep efficiency, and claim it's unconstructible because of tip speed.

Shouldn't tip speed be the constant factor? Fluid is entering at and directly interacting with the tip, so I would expect this speed to be matched to the speed/characteristic of the fluid.

It may still not be practical, but Mach 11 at the inlet seems totally bogus.

I am fully stating that nobody today can be certified as having the definitive-in-effect, infallible judgement machine.

So, when somebody has different ideas, do not dismiss them beyond your own very possibly partial framework. You disagree, stage A, but it is a long process before being able to rightfully state something as wrong, stage Z.

Also non mechanical engineers have to drive cars, also non economists have to invest, also non nutritionists have to eat: we judge with what we have. And, also given the first point, no engineer / economist / nutritionist has perfect judgement in engineering, economy, nutrition. One does their own homework to take their decisions, daily, constantly.

It implies a number of factors that the individual will present according to objective tentative partial data and subjective importance.

My bet is something like a large scale RC plane with no real time video link. The tech is already here:

1. Gas engine would allow for >1 hour flight times

2. Flight management systems like Ardupilot means it could have been flying a pre-planned mission with little/no real time control. The helicopter pilots may have been mistaken thinking that it was reacting to them at all.

3. Or maybe it was reacting: two way radio links are nearly trivial with low enough bandwidths. The controllers could have been monitoring the ATC picture and had the RC plane also reporting telemetry. When the police helicopter got close they may have inserted waypoints into the flight path of the RC plane to make it fly away.

There are thousands of serious RC hobbyists in the USA alone that could make something like this. Most of them follow the rules, but I wouldn't put it past a drug cartel to pay/coerce someone to make one for them. Maybe foreign spies, but I think that's unlikely considering Davis-Monthan AFB doesn't have any interesting research or test units. The Chinese wouldn't smuggle in a RC plane to watch A-10s or F-16s training in a MOA.

Friends of mine work at these private schools for lower salaries than public schools. The reality is the job sucks a lot less. You get ~100% engaged students, supportive parents, and a school administration with minimal perverse incentives. Struggling students and discipline problems get filtered out and sent somewhere else. There a loads of qualified teachers, and really plenty of very capable teachers. There is no need for the schools to pay a premium to get the best teachers.

Imagine if 99% of programming jobs were on Win32 native apps using tools from 1998, and 1% of them were using modern tools on a modern Unix-derived stack? Would the 1% really have to pay a premium to get top 10% developers?
The issue is not so much with frivolous consumerism as it is with cheap crap flooding the market, taking over certain product categories altogether. If you're in the market for any kind of electronics, toys, small tools, etc., chances are your only option is to buy a variation of the same cheap mass produced crap with a different temporary or nonexistent brand and thousands of fake 5-star reviews. Even searching for name brands you run the risk of getting a counterfeit. The system is rigged to the point where quality, and thus more expensive, brands simply can't compete.

The change needs to start on the manufacturer and retailer side. Stop prioritizing cost savings from cheap Chinese factories and start building locally and in factories that prioritize quality and respect human labor and the environment. As a consumer I'd happily pay for that overhead if that option was available and was given a fair chance to compete.
“How far can I go on just local trains” is a fun game to play here in Japan. I’m not sure my body could handle the bus version here, unless the roads of England are very straight and smooth!
The problem with that game is that the rules of the game completely defy common sense.

99% of first time players who survive winter will die from freezing because the first thing they make to fend the cold of is insulating clothing. The game doesn't work that way. No, instead you must use a very specific item that only works in this magic video game world called a thermal stone. The stone is hot? You don't freeze. How stupid is that?

The entire game is like that. Instead of having a continuous learning curve the game has a discontinuous learning curve. I.e. most items in the game feel like they shouldn't even be in the game. If there was a beginner mode that simply restricted access to all the useless items the game would be significantly easier.

Once you get into summer you run into the heat problem. Either your stuff is burning or plants aren't growing. The solution? An Ice Flingomatic. It doesn't even need ice to run... If you played the game with a cheetsheet it would be pathetically easy because 90% of the game is intentionally meant to be a red herring that wastes your time.

I say this as a player who survived 300+ days at which point the risk of death was 0%.

I'm pretty sure this was discussed in an earlier HN post.

However, I want to point out that "not replicating" doesn't necessarily equate to bad science (or, more accurately, bad practice on the part of the principal investigators irt accepted best practices in their field).

There are a bunch of studies in the social sciences that failed to replicate simply because a p value was slightly below a threshold target, even though the coefficient direction/magnitude &c... agreed with the earlier study.

That said, I'm not defending - at all - the paper discussed in the article.
I don't know where your calculation went wrong, but it is wrong. It is very easy to calculate how much electricity electric cars would use, as the distance driven is precisely recorded. For the 45 million cars you have an average annual driving distance of less than 15.000km and at 20kWh/100km you get 135 TWh. That is about 20% more electricity production in Germany. Actually it will be much less, as gasoline and diesel fuel production and distribution uses a lot of electric energy too. The German grid could provide that amount of power today, and its at least 20 years till we have so many electric cars, plenty of time to add that capacity renewable.

The biggest comfort advantage of BEV for the common user is, to rarely have to recharge on the road. If you plug in your BEV into a plain wall socket even every night, you start with a full charge every morning, removing the need to do on the road so in most cases.

The Ioniq 5 already advertises recharge times in 18 minutes, so choose that one, if recharging on the road is common for you, or just buy a Tesla, which are pretty close to that and have the best charging network.

If you want to have "green" hydrogen, you have to use 2-3x as much electricity and for the average consumer, hydrogen cars are clearly a step backwards towards BEV.
Without certain optimizations it will be too slow. You really need to optimize right recursion to not be quadratic, for example.
Using SLOs to Pursue User Happiness
> A debugger is only useful for code that you don’t understand.

The problem might not be with the code but with the data the code is operating on. To give you a specific example. Suppose you're rendering something and at a certain point it displays some weird artifacts on the screen. You could go over every draw operation the renderer performs to check if there's a mistake in the code somewhere. Or you could check the thousands of points in the data to see if you can spot the mistake there.

My experience is that in this specific case, it's a lot faster to just debug and trace the program. The debugger can then display the current rendering surface each time you break into it. You'll find out which draw call caused the artifacts and which part of the data it was trying to render.

In some rare cases, you'll discover neither the rendering code nor the data was bad. It looked strange because the data was strange but not invalid or wrong.

The point I'm trying to make is that it's also about speed. You use the tools which gives you the fastest results. Sometimes it's quicker to read the code and reason about it, sometimes it's quicker to write printf's, sometimes it's quicker to use a debugger.
Unless you have a thousand drones. If any one drone gets taken out then you just lost a negligible quantity of product. If a traditional mule is caught you lose millions. A single bust would pay for a fleet of drones.
NixOS can also move between system generations seamlessly. The approach is entirely different though, the system is fully defined by its config files and will be recreated from scratch each time it is changed (except /home and /var, mostly).
That would be exactly the thing generics are supposed to fix (except that Go doesn't have tuples yet, but at least you can define your own now and return a generic `Tuple[A, B]`).

Regardless of that, returning a tuple of size 10, especially with different types, would almost always be a bad idea.
Excellent executive summary for non-executives. Some of these (client) companies are so afraid of code it's bewildering. It's almost like they don't trust themselves to test & maintain even small code bases.

I've seen them go out of their way to pursue point-and-click solutions to data warehouses/lakes: thousands of ETL jobs manually coded (and manually tested) with very little "code" reuse. The inconsistencies/deviations from conventions were worse than the development waste. Consumers of these data will have to deal with inconsistencies in naming conventions, versioning strategies, and broken SCDs for years to come. Too often the architects/data modelers/ETL developers don't even know what the primary key is! (Don't lose your keys folks.)
