I have to sort-of disagree with you! I've used 100s of dishwashers (used to work at a test lab) and Miele dishwashers are indisputably "better" (more on that below) than anything else on the consumer market, and I would be completely willing to bet you a nice dinner that you would agree after using one. Same for their vacuums, they are on a completely different level of performance than anything else I've used.

All that said, I do not own a Miele dishwasher because it's benefits are not worth the high cost to me, however I have severe allergies and while I hated to pay for it, a Miele vacuum has ruined me for all other vacuums.

*Not a Miele salesman, just love very clean carpets. I'd be thrilled to learn about a cheaper alternative that can remove hair/dander/dust and etc as well from carpets as a Miele can, but so far nothing has come close.
My side project has been to rewrite https://github.com/erpc-io/eRPC which does RPCs over UDP with some congestion control supposedly quite fast. Paper: https://www.usenix.org/system/files/nsdi19-kalia.pdf. I never got the code to work in AWS; I believe the author focused on Mellanox NICS but that's not really commodity H/W, which is where my interests lay.

So I dug into it .. and well I'll have my own library soon. I should be able to send UDP w/o congestion control sometime this week.

eRPC uses DPDK (100% user space NIC TX/RX control) plus the author's own other ideas to get performance. Since I'm getting into DPDK way, way late in the game, I hope and believe DPDK is and will be the better way to go than to turn to kernel fix-ups.

Getting the kernel out of the way with pinned threads seems -- or more exotic with special H/W if preferred --- is cleaner if one can develop from scratch. DPDK is all day long zero copy, and always has been.

This library will be a part of something bigger. For many frameworks, a key architecture point is:

I got a RPC/packet/message. Ok, now what?

* process it in-place e.g. on the thread that was doing RX?

* if I don't delegate am I making back-pressure?

* delegate it to another core? How to efficiently do that? Hint: https://blog.acolyer.org/2017/12/04/ffwd-delegation-is-much-...

* if I delegate ... to whom? Maybe I'm partitioning?

* If I delegate how do I get a response back?

In DPDK I believe these are easier to decide and well-manage in code.

It really is the go-to gotcha for electric car opponents. I've found if you push back and point out the problems with ICE production and use they have no response.
Yes, that is the whole point (and it is why I edited to add the parenthetical at the end). My claim was based on books and lectures on the experience of Native Americans. If a person prefers to be called (or their people called) a certain way, of course I would respect their preference.
My old S has free supercharging for life, the cost is subsidized in the price of the vehicle.

I think U-Haul is perfectly positioned for driverless truck beds and van bodies (with a remote control that pops out for precision parking), but depending on the cost I would buy one myself.

You could remove people from delivery trucks, have groceries delivered (just use curbside and have the people drop it in your vehicle), and all sorts of other pickup (Best Buy, target, Walmart).

You could send them ahead on road trips, have it tag along on camping trips, sag wagon yourself on hiking or biking trips, all while having a lot more efficient vehicle for normal travel.

They would also make for a good courier / last mile solution for b2b and shipments to downtown locations.

It also solves the trolly problem in that it could drive cautiously and sacrifice itself over anything else.

Would it increase traffic? Maybe. But it might also be shared between multiple families or friends.

I'm not sure. Look at "smart" TVs. Their prices continue to go down. Why? They are heavily subsidized by all of the analytics they earn from the data you provide them. By lowering the price, it makes it easier to sell to more and more people. Raising the prices does not.

Not sure of the number of units sold comparing dishwashers vs TVs, so maybe there's not enough volume in dishwasher? Also, I can only imagine the analytics data from TV viewing is much more informative/beneficial than how many times someone washes dishes.
Eh. I'm not saying that bad or deceptive UI isn't something worth talking about, but I think there is a really tangible difference between something being difficult to find and being impossible to do.
It's common in lisp, where -,*,+,/ are names of functions.
I would absolutely use the "publicly funded" argument, because the public was forced to pay for BBC productions if they had a Television (a device for viewing them).

When much of this content was made, there were not even VHS tapes or streaming sticks, meaning the only thing a television would have been used for was the BBC. And you can't argue that it was not compulsory - BBC ran scare campaigns for decades about their "TV Detector vans" to fine people who didn't pay.

To me, the method might be different, but that doesn't change the publicly funded status.

I don't care if it wasn't funded the same way as roads. It was still publicly funded, just in a different way. I believe that anything that had compulsory public money going into it should be properly archived, be it film, or software, or old documents.
Ah yes, the good old 'it's always been that way!' fallacy
Yeah, feels like positive social reinforcement to me. If an attractive person expects me to behave a certain way, I'll do it because I want to be with them / be like them.
That is also the same. See the clarified example:

"She's a conscientious judge, who does not let personal prejudices influence her decisions."

Basically she does her duty as a judge instead of letting her personal feelings influence her judgements. Conscientious people do things by the book.

Tesla will receive government subsidies for opening up its network. Considering the $600 million they've spent to deploy it globally, that seems reasonable.
To your point any efficiency gained by a newer model is lost by the increased replacement cost and energy to produce a new unit every 7-10 years.
This could make good sense if they want to provide service where the customers use it.
Learning Computer Science with Categories
In the 1970s when I was in grade school we attached postcards to helium balloons to see how far they could get (some people got responses that indicated they traveled for hundreds of miles). That probably would be even less acceptable today in terms of littering as deflated balloons often get eaten by wildlife to ill effect.
And in codebases you can always search/grep for function names, so it easy to find the definition of everything.

Of course he was charging his phone from the built in USB port and it was actually a data port.

That's probably thanks to the EU. The EC and some EEA governments have been pushing Tesla to open up their network, notably Germany and Norway.

Morality is not a solved problem. People who claim to always know right from wrong are sanctimonious, not conscientious.
Maybe they fell for the polynimbus meme.
You mean of course it is simpler and cheaper for the provider, not for "people" (the users).

For actual users nothing beats the simplicity of paying via contactless card (or mobile) payment solution. Right now I have probably over a dozen apps installed just for paying for various services like parking (of course, each city/country has its own), it is _madness_, and I'm not even using anything special. I hate this passionately and would actually pay for simplicity!
Fun with terminals for those who have never experienced them:

Run Sim390[1] with MUSIC/SP. Then get a TN3270 virtual terminal software to connect to it.

3270 is screen-based--think of it like filling out web forms and submitting, then receiving the results. This is far different than line-based terminals (e.g. your typical *nix TTY).

Compared to IBM's terminals, DEC's terminals seem completely unremarkable.

> A mortgage is the cheapest interest rate you will ever get

There are cheaper margin loans.
No other automaker built a network [1], and Tesla used vehicle profits from the S and X to do it. The subsidies received were used to bootstrap manufacturing capacity, and all other automakers were eligible for them if they had built EVs (Tesla's DOE loan was paid back 9 years early, with interest [2]). Only recently did they open a manufacturing facility in China solely to build Supercharger stations [3] (older versions of Superchargers were bespoke, built with Model S and X stacked inverters; newer versions are purpose built).

TLDR Tesla recognized the charging story was crucial to EV sales, and spent the capital to have a superior product. To this day, no other automaker is doing the same.

After you notice I assume you have to declare an incident, get a call going, assess the extent of the issues, get the needed people involved, and then you'd announce on the status page. 13 minutes isn't amazing but it also isn't terrible. Perhaps you have better ways of keeping status pages updated much faster while also not ending up ramping up the posting of false positives.

A bit of both, I think.

Some people put the dirtiest dishes in the history of humanity in their washer and then complain it doesn’t clean very well. A quick rinse with water to get the chunks, or the really caked on stuff off works wonders.

- these are 50s era missile silos with limited regulation. youll need full asbestos and lead abatement. some fixtures or objects may not be capable of any abatement at all.

- the fire suppression system likely isnt pendant/water based like a normal home. youre going to need to maintain dry standpipe/halon systems or rip them out and replace them. Halon is toxic and depletes the ozone layer.

- there will be some parts of your home you absolutely will not inhabit and may require a site survey. Expect leftover chromium based chemicals, leaded fuels and lead contaminated chemicals like cosmoline, industrial adhesives and cleaners, and even hydrazine itself.

- youll may need a specialty electrician and plumber every time something goes wrong. HVAC in a silo is a million dollar system designed to cope with thermonuclear war. you will definitely need to replace some or all of it.

- water in silos is common and requires a full time sump system. whatever standing water you encounter will almost certainly be contaminated.
> To me, the parse() call seems the most volatile -- what guarantees are there that the bytes you just read are parsable?

None, which is why, in Rust, parse never throws an exception on a parsing error, and instead, returns a Result<Ok=T,Err=ParseError>, which is an ADT with either an Ok(T), which means parse succeeded, or an Err(ParseError), which means that an error happened, and contains state about where, etc.

See its documentation: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/primitive.str.html#meth...

The author isn't talking about this, probably cause its not the point of the article, but in Rust, you can't avoid handling parsing errors. If you want to actually get the value, you need to handle the possibility that an error happened. The programming model does not give the user a choice here.
This can easily been spun the other way around:
There was a firmware upgrade that would save 10% energy / water / time in certain circumstances, but that evil corp hasn't provided us with a way to upgrade, because they want us to buy a brand new dishwasher.

This was my work to check for quality of chemicals entering the lab. NMR, MS, IR... And over 15 years I have seen dozens and dozens of cases. Now most labs call HPLC with UV sufficient for quality analysis. Lots of things looked "fine" that way that's for sure. Note that I was in the drug discovery world not in the inorganic chemistry world where things are ususally of much better quality.
Thanks, that's a cool site.
First you go everywhere local that does not sell new furniture. Does not. New furniture is the pits. It's like a new car. You spend years worrying about the damage you're doing to it, the money you've lost, the depreciation, the interest you're paying on that depreciation, etc. New furniture tortures you like anything that's new. Then you set a budget and start selectively buying used furniture. I give you a 100% guarantee that you will love this process. You get to see your furniture in real life, you get sit in it and see how comfortable it is, you get to know that it's had real life behind it. Once you find that one unique sofa, that one table, that one thing that really speaks to your heart, build your furniture stable around that one piece at a time and it will be uniquely you, composed entirely of previously owned stuff, will have cost you anywhere from nothing to far, far less than Pottery Barn, and you'll get some fun out of it too.

This living room is uniquely me. This is the furniture I chose for myself because I liked it when I saw it, I liked it when I sat in it, because it speaks to me. I bought this sofa from this chick who got it from this dude over here, and you wouldn't believe what you told me about how she got it into her 10th floor apt.

This is not $5,000 of furniture that I have to “get used to sitting in” because it makes a statement about who I think I'm supposed to be, because Pottery Barn told me style looks like $5,000 of furniture I don't need.

F** that. Hit the garage sales, hit the thrift stores, hit the estate sales, especially in wealthy areas, have some fun.

If you make something that's you, you can keep the picture of the Pottery Barn setup and paste it on your refrigerator with a magnet. Each time you pass by it you can snicker at it, how you almost made the worst possible choice: new furniture.

If you can afford Pottery Barn, you can afford someone to pick it up and bring it to your place. Don't worry about shipping/moving yourself. Just pay for it.

Just be aware of that what you pay for shipping now, you will pay again when you move and again and again and again as many times as you move.
Google critiqued the practice of displaying ads above search results
If I was to make a guess, I would say because unfortunate as it is, innovations in the health care field are currently driven by profit.

I am not sure if the argument regarding life expectancy being tied to healthcare costs is a valid one as there are so many other factors, but I do know that there is somewhat of a brain drain that tends to draw health specialists from countries with lower health care costs to the US. Eg: According to Google... An anesthesiologist's average annual salary in Canada is $218,069 where as in the US the average is $403,300 and that is without doing any currency exchange. This results in a reduced number of surgeries in Canada as it is required to have an anesthesiologist present when ever someone is sedated, and that results in long waiting lists, especially for non essential surgeries such as those for knee or back pain. 2 years or more is not unusual before getting a referral to see a specialist and then there can be just as long of a wait for the surgery.
Basically in Canada we have very low health care costs but also defacto bread lines for medical treatment.
Says who? This is from Miele's user manual:

> There is no need to rinse items under
running water!

Dishwashers already pre-wash with an initial rinse cycle, the whole point is that they do the washing for you. It's also a whole lot more efficient in terms of water waste.

The problem is when you don't give that first cycle any powder to work with, ie. if you're using pods.
Common for apartments or houses that have been used for a while. Would be enough to let the water flow for a while.
It doesn't matter if each individual detects the outage because they'll start blame at the local source and move further up the tree rather than assign blame to a full system failure right off the bat. 99.9% of the time it's going to be a local failure affecting the individual.

Also, most alerting systems like check multiple times before declaring a public outage, many times 2 to 3 failures some seconds apart are needed.
It's full-blown sarcasm. Sorry for omitting the /s.

Oops, perhaps I meant proof by contradiction is equivalent to contrapositive (rather than equivalent to law of excluded middle). If you write out a classic high school proof by contradiction formally, then you find yourself basically writing out the contrapositive.

Let's say you know A and ~B=>~A, then you can deduce B. Proof by contradiction: assume otherwise, i.e. ~B, then by ~B=>~A you have ~A, but that contradicts A.

So if you have ~B=>~A then you have A=>B.
About this `Show HN` tag...

I, apparently wrongly, interpret this tag as "here is an interesting open-source project that seems to have been overlooked".

Perhaps it would be nice to have a new tag so one can easily discern between "just another article" and "an open-source project".

For example my main interaction with HN is to find new and interesting tools and projects, and such a tag would be very helpful for me.

Any thoughts? How should I tag such links in the future?

> The benefit of not waiting by being a Tesla customer is a pretty high benefit, but could you imagine that same benefit with ICE vehicles? A gas station that you can't fuel at unless you have a specific brand of car?

The best way Tesla can solve this is by building more of them. So you would have way more cars using the chargers but you would have physically more chargers so it would even out (in the best case scenario).

What has me wondering is, how will charge time affect the economics of these places? If you pull into just about any gas station now, you can fill your tank in 5-10minutes, more or less depending on the pump but it's exponentially less time than even waiting for an EV to charge. With more folks stopped in these places for longer, I wonder how the economics of these places will evolve.

> I think this is something people who have never lived in such cities inherently don't understand.

I agree public transit is a solution, but I think the issue is with supply rather than demand.

The fact that the market value of land within walking distance of good public transit options or bike facilities is significantly more expensive is evidence that most people clearly do appreciate how valuable it is.

Unless more cities and towns build better public transit and bike facilities then a growing population of people will keep bidding up the existing supply and turn it into a luxury good that few can afford.
