> I just came back from a 3k KM roadtrip to Calgary and back and I honestly do not think it would be possible (at least, not in a reasonable amount of time) with any other car.

A Better Routeplanner (https://abetterrouteplanner.com/) is a good tool for getting an idea of what roadtrips are like in different EVs.

ABRP says Vancouver Island to Calgary in a Ford Mustang Mach-E Extended Range RWD takes 18 hours and 12 minutes. 2 hours and 8 minutes of that time is charging.

A 2021 Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 18" aero wheels takes 17 hours and 56 minutes. 1 hour and 34 minutes is charging.

A Kia EV6 Long Range RWD takes 17 hours and 22 minutes. 1 hour and 18 minutes is charging.

A Lucid Air Dream Edition takes 16 hours and 59 minutes. 1 hour and 1 minute is charging.

Gtk-rs is still pretty bare bone.

I tried to do my part by removing boilerplate using macros [1] [2], but it is still complicated to design GTK apps. Even more now, because Glade has been deprecated for GTK4 and no visual editor is available to replace it for now, making developers manually write XML while exploring the sparse documentation. This is a regression for developers' experience.

I am really trying to like GTK after using Qt a lot in the past, but there is just too much effort. Things should be as simple as VB6/WinForms. With no visual GUI editor, I find myself to just write CLI tools in Rust instead of going the extra mile and creating GUIs.

There are persistent rumors that Model Y will get air suspension eventually. Model S and X already have it and Cybertruck will too.
Yes, but the software stacks aren't the popular choice because the programmers are new, it is because the programmers want to be seen as "not new" within 2 years, there is a heavy selection bias for very driven programmers to become senior programmers by their second year of experience, because they are experienced in the popular new shiny thing. That's the causation behind the correlation, by being not easily replaceable, and commanding a high premium for their time faster because of it. Sometimes there is actual utility in knowing that newer stack, sometimes.

It lets SWERFs pat themselves on the back and feel good by pretending they're not punishing sex workers, only the "evil" men who provide sex workers with income. In practice we have seen in both Sweden and Norway that police systematically pressure landlords and hotels to evict sex workers from rented apartments/rooms under threat of pimping charges. Immigrant sex workers have been deported after going to the police to report crimes.

Progress New Zealand - A non-partisan group promoting democratic citizenship in NZ

Progress New Zealand Incorporated was established in July 2021 as an independent, non-partisan membership organisation.

We seek to develop alternative ways of thinking about the issues that matter to New Zealanders by promoting a political culture based on understanding and compromise through informed debate and a common national identity.

Our mission is to become a reliable source of critical analysis, ideas, and public policy research for New Zealanders who are interested in politics but feel alienated from the party system and other forms of political participation.

That being said, this is the first time they're confident enough in their own processor to rewrite their whole desktop

Pretty sure it wasn’t a matter of confidence, as Apple has been signaling making their own desktop processor for a while. There was an iPad launch a few years ago where Phil Schiller said that particular A-series processor had desktop-class performance like three different times.

Also, it’s the third time they’ve done a processor transition: 68K to PowerPC to Intel to ARM. There’s no doubt they’ve known for years they could do this if needed.

It wasn’t a rewrite; it was mostly a recompile, especially after Apple dropped support for 32-bit apps. iOS and macOS share many frameworks and APIs and that’s been running on ARM since 2007.

When Apple announced the switch to Intel in 2006, Jobs revealed they had Mac OS X running on Intel in the lab for years; there’s no doubt they’ve had macOS running on ARM for years as well.

Likely getting the logistics of software and hardware development to align at the scale Apple operates at is what took the time; not the lack of confidence.

This move was probably inevitable but it certainly didn’t help that Intel repeatedly missed deadlines and performance goals.
If it's just guns, you have to account for the number of failed attempts, and the century-long military effort it took to hold territory. Cortés got his ass handed to him repeatedly in military conflicts.

Canadian A&W is really good, and tbh it's kinda surprising that Canadian A&W hasn't bought out American A&W and tried to expand there.

That being said, I believe Canadian A&W is much more heavily tilted toward the western part of the country, so maybe they feel they have their hands full trying to grab marketshare in Ontario, Quebec and further.
Is it not?

We have a more recent example in Hawaii. Hawaii was not subjugated by any foreign power until the 1890s. That being said, the Native Hawaiian population pretty much collapsed from a high of 300,000 in 1770 to 20,000 in 1920.

> We've had enough clowns in the white house lately

It's kind of silly to equate inviting someone as a guest to electing someone as President.

But if you think Trump was a problem because he was a "clown" then I'm sorry but you've been distracted by the superficial. It's my opinion that Trump was a bad president—and continues to represent an existential threat to civil trust—but his style didn't have anything to do with it. It was his substance. Behind the clown was some awful ideas and disgusting political strategies.

Equating these two people is just silly.

Trump is a narcissist whose most economically successful skill prior to 2016 was as a "brand" and a television show presenter. He inherited hundreds of millions of dollars and while it's almost impossible to know exactly how successful Trump has been with money, estimates peg his wealth as having grown at a lower rate than the market average. Put another way, with his mix of successful and failed ventures, he has effectively lived off his inheritance.

Elon Musk is a weird guy with degrees in economics and physics, was closely involved in the success of PayPal, Tesla and SpaceX, and has become one of the world's richest people almost entirely from his own work, ventures and investments. Despite this, Elon lives a modest life with few material possessions, choosing to spend most of his time working.

For those that understand Portuguese, the author of that paper appeared in the Fronteiras da Ciência podcast to talk about the work.

Yeah, I get how those hints make sense, now that you (and others in the thread) have told me how things are, and I did overlook that HEAD is still an extra request, while the attributes are (effectively) for free.

Because of context. They're not just talking about "sex", the entire research is concerned with evidence of the exchange of "stuff" between societies": objects, pathogens, culture, and, yes, "human genetic information".
I don't personally care that Tesla weren't invited. Tesla didn't suffer from not being invited. It was a nothing event that nobody would even remember today if it wasn't for the remarkable weirdness of Tesla's absence.

As for the SEC, the evidence of reality suggests otherwise. Elon didn't have to suck it up and accept responsibility. He didn't have to stop whining about how he doesn't respect the SEC.

They should check out the flood of videos showing attacks on Asian Americans and see where the real racism lies. It ain't widespread.
> Because in east-west direction the exchange happens inside the same climate zone.

This is almost trivially refuted by reading a climate map. Traveling along the Silk Road takes you from a Mediterranean climate into a semi-desert alluvial flood plain, into mountains and high steppes, then back into desert, then low steppes, then mountains, then high desert, then more mountains, and then rich alluvial flood plain of East China, without deviating all that much in latitude. Travel north from West Texas, and you start with high altitude steppe, then continue with high altitude steppe until you reach Edmonton. Indeed, looking at a climate map of the Americas, you'll notice that it's pretty much a smooth gradient in latitude.

Now Eurasia does have some similar climatic belts on an east-west axis--namely the tundra, taiga, and steppes of Russia. Which are regions that are not known as being founts of civilization.

Indeed, if you actually look at the history of the Americas versus the history of Eurasia, there's good evidence for transfer of what we might term foundational technologies of civilization along the north-south axis of the Americas (metallurgy, pottery, and most importantly of all, maize), while there's not really any evidence of such transfer between the Mediterranean and Chinese worlds in Eurasia.

The article does mention CadQuery at the end:

"Right now, I’m learning CadQuery which promises to address the shortcomings; it uses a more powerful BREP based CAD engine (OpenCASCADE) combined with the power of Python and inspiration of JQuery, of all things.

"CadQuery is still in semi-early development – it started as a FreeCAD plug-in before becoming independent for the recent 2.0 release.

"Most importantly, the output capability of CADQuery allows for proper STEP, SVG and DXF export, eliminating most of the problems discussed in this article.

> You have to jump between 4 different repositories to fix a small bug. etc etc etc.

For me this one also seems inevitably connected to the idea of microservices, where people set them up in the worst possible way (de facto tightly coupled interfaces but with REST or RPC calls in the way, separate git repos, multiple databases and multiple Docker/Kubernetes deployments for even small projects, etc etc) and so add huge amounts of developer overhead to web apps that would have been single Rails projects back in the day.

It's hard to argue against them saying national security, because they're never going to release anything hard and fast. The US government definitely has a track record of waving it around as a blank cheque though (for a more recent example the TikTok U-Turn)

However, this quote in particular feels like scaremongering, with vague hand waving about a drone with a camera doing exactly what you'd expect a drone with a camera to be able to do, but with a few more vague accusations that I'm not convinced by (If a drone can remotely measure heart-rate that's very cool though and I'm interested in how):

Europe also quickly underwent large scale depopulation when the western roman empire collapsed. That's how civilization collapse works. But in both cases these were isolated events, there is no such trend. Cities like Cholula have been continuously inhabited for over 2000 years. How long people remain in an area depends on the geography - in arid valley environments like mesopotamia or central mexico, both cities and civilizations tend to only last a few centuries as river patterns change, resulting in droughts and migrations, and a lack of natural barriers makes invasion common.
