ICE veichles will start even if it is cold, I live in the far north of Sweden and we often have -30C and the cars start with no problems even if you dont have a heater in it.

This EV test however is barely in cold weather, it gets a lot worse when it's cold.

Neither - just think differently ;)
The visceral reaction leads me to believe you might understand the possibility, but may reject it mentally, of any number of birth over "0" leads to a higher probability of "many" than "1".
Oh certainly. Back in 2018 I found my favorite site to read online comics was turning my phone into a hot plate before I blocked JS.
Public domain. Concise. Effective. Choose any two.

The issue is that donating to the “public domain” isn’t a thing in many jurisdictions, so if you want a license that is effective everywhere then it needs to be wordy. If you are happy to retain copyright and other rights and simply want to grant other people a license to use you work then just use MIT.
It is not stealing from the user, it is brave stealing from the website.

Brave takes revenue that would have gone to the website. If you Adblock/etc that revenue is never generated. If you use brave, the revenue is generated and stolen by brave.
Interesting tidbit: a few years back I encountered a Minecraft server with a dynamic map on a website. After checking it out for about 5 minutes I noticed some weird CPU usage so I asked the server admins.

They apparently to came to an agreement with the players where, to support the server, a browser miner would be ran on the dynamic map website.
I hate to be that guy, but I believe that many line managers & middle managers aren't honestly needed in knowledge work at a certain level of self-managing ICs with a common vision. It's increasingly rare to find "good" managers among the bad. The good ones tend to find new jobs or get promoted and continue to climb the ladder. The bad ones? They also get promotions to take over the good ones jobs and they stay around forever.

They get in the way majority of the time. They try to make decisions for their own self interests rather than empowering their teams to make the best ones possible. They don't say no to things, but rather use it as yet another opportunity for a "quick win". They get offended easily and have fragile egos with blunt feedback. Literally the opposite of every characteristics of a "good manager".

Many people in these roles are classic examples of narcissism and nepotism. Nobody has ever humbled them before or questioned their confidence that can easily be seen as an authority figure in most developer teams. I'm sad to be saying this, but I don't think many developers stand their own ground against these types of people and they should. Teams should be able to vote out their bad managers because it is so apparent on certain teams that there's a bad manager.

Even with decent managers on a team, you still hardly get anything meaningful done. You can spend years on things that have little to no impact externally, but will be praised internally because of the "hard work" done even at the cost of morale and questioning ICs saying "why are we still doing this?". Good managers should see through this bullshit and get the team to self-direct course by talking to everyone and getting a sentiment for a new common vision.

Bonus: Steve Jobs thinking most managers are bozos - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQKis2Cfpeo

There is a substantial difference between direct and indirect surveillance. The government cannot imprison you if you prevent a company whom the government is siphoning data from from spying on you. But if you try to shield yourself from the government’s direct surveillance, you may suffer consequences in the future as the laws evolve.

Take Sweden for example. First the politicians legislated that ISPs are forced to provide data to the government about its users. Then when some ISPs like Bahnhof started advertising that they don’t save logs, shortly after it became a legal obligation to do so. If ISPs don’t comply, they could be criminally charged under the law.

No coercion vs coercion.

You don't see anything different between the extent of Russia's military action between now and in 2014?
The key points of this terrible demagoguery, from what I could tell:

1) Russians have been conquered a lot and are very insecure

2) They're part Mongols and inherited fear and lies as state of being

3) Russians only respect strong Tsar and let the Tsar do whatever he wants as he appears strong and manufactures the fear through the lies

4) Russians are stupid and not capable of creating anything, only destruction. They stole anything technologically worthwhile.

5) Russia is a terrible autocratic imperialist country that is completely geopolitically irrational.

Any person taking this video at face value should conclude that Russia should be suppressed and destroyed, that would be a great service to the human kind. Yes, everything makes sense now.

> 1. Ukraine has wanted to join NATO for some time, and at at least some NATO countries have expressed a wish for it to join.

Which ones?
France and Germany weren't particularly too warm about it.
Heck, NSC Anthony Lake to Clinton's first term thrown it out there to let Ukraine join NATO and his colleague responded that it is the "reddest of red lines" back in 1993[0]

As NATO enlarged since the fall of the iron curtain, it's neo-containment of Russia. As new countries are added to the alliance, they form the new eastern border, where if conflict starts, it would be on their soil. There'd be self-interest to encourage adding others to move it further east. It's not a judgement on them - if I was running a place that forms the eastern front of a containment alliance, I'd want someone to take my place too.

> If you believe in freedom of speech, whatever I say shouldn't be a problem, am I right?

No, not at all. I can believe in free speech and still believe that it's harmful to spread misinformation.

> God save you if you ever hear an opinion that is in disagreement with your beliefs.

The problem is not the fact that your opinion is in disagreement; it's the fact that your opinion is objectively, demonstrably wrong. People who point that out aren't clutching their pearls because they're so offended you have a dissenting opinion.

If they state EU _timezone_ and they receive applications from India which is *ahead* by 3.30H or Nigeria which is in about the same timezone, I don't see what the problem is.

If they want only people from Europe, they should just say so.
Eventbrite might be the new Meetup. I was searching Meetup for events of a certain type and got nothing interesting. Eventbrite had quite a few events.

Anyone successful using eventbrite to find groups?
Well, I imagine they recognize a license saying "you can do anything with this". It probably just has different legal status than public domain.

This is total war. RF targets infrastructure and kills civilians on purpose. More than 2000 civilians are killed by RF in one week on territory controlled by Ukraine. RF uses weapons of mass(1) destruction freely, to force humanitarian crisis, then ask for tactical pause, to let civilians escape, while using reinforces to fortify captured land. They are shutting at hospitals, gas pipes, power lines, humanitarian convoys, to make situation desperate for civilians, to force tactical pauses. We learned this tactic very well.

(1) Not WMD like chlorine, or nuclear, of course, nor biological weapons except coronavirus released by accident from Vector lab in Siberia on Sep 16, 2019, just conventional weapons designed to maximize damage to civilian infrastructure.
I think caseysoftware pretty much captures the value proposition.

I'll add that as a user who wants to go to meetups, I don't want to be hassled by emails, chats, logging into a discord (that I use just to participate in this one community), and so forth. I want to look at a single app, see if any talks are of interest, click yes and add to my calendar.
And because that app is already meetup, I don't want to add a second app. Its like adding a second or third chatting application.

p.s. most (not all) of the other criticism seems to be aimed at the issue of getting people to consistently meet up at all. An alternative app or messaging system would not solve this issue, and may make it worse.

Something that's actually smart and really, really not just there for you to kill, for once.
The issue is, often when you’re driving to places to ski you’re also going massively uphill. So you have the combination of cold + uphill driving which really takes a hit on the range. I can’t say I haven’t felt range anxiety in those situations….

You have to maintain those relationships. You have to do everything in your power to validate the idea. There are tons of ways to do it including paying people, open source. Selling the idea before it exists is just a singular option out of multitudes.

Japan is a cruel society.

One documentary on Japan after WWII illustrated this best. After the war there were tens of thousands of orphans running around in Japan. The girls were al sold up as sex slaves and the best looking ones sold as brides. The boys, however, were all simply KILLED.

They'd wander around in the ruins of buildings and every week there's be fewer of them. Who killed them and what happened to their remains is a complete mystery. They were simply killed because they weren't useful in a society that needed labor and couldn't afford to have more mouths to feed.

I believed Japan to be a civilized society but the above story has made me change my mind. If you go around killing children simply because they're not useful you don't really deserve to exist as a society.
OK. But Russia's previous armistice with Japan gave Japan the confidence to attack the US and French, British, and Dutch possessions.
Think you responded to the wrong person :)

Either that or we're talking about a different monkey news lol
Yep, getting tired of these Russian propaganda agents. Hope they all get on put on a list to make sure they will never be allowed to claim asylum in the West. Stuck in glorious Russia forever.
Yup - I skimmed them, so that's on me! Don't let me being relatively harsh discourage you.

It's a good, educational game that makes you think. It just feels very different from something like Wordle, and that's OK.

Now that I got the hang of it, I tried the easy and hard modes as well, and got them both on the first try without having to undo anything.

But as others said, I looked at the available numbers, figured out what I had to multiply to get close, what I'd have to add/subtract to get the rest of the way, and how I'd use the leftover numbers there to make the addition/subtraction possible.

Basically I brute-forced it in my head. But I think it would be enjoyable if it somehow felt more iterative, and less like I was working from the solution backwards, and then just filling the steps in all at once.
:) Good to see web news that appears to be at first glance just straightforwardly good news and uncontroversial. In particular, I'm really excited to see `willReadFrequently` on this list. Particularly for games, canvas caching is a huge deal.

And holy crud, rounded rectangles! It doesn't fundamentally change anything, it just means I don't need to write a helper method for literally every project I make that uses them. It's a tiny thing, but I'm grateful for the people working on that.

Not OP, but I believe their point was there is a difference between being known for something and being good at it. He was known for being good at chess. Now that he is already known, he spends his time focusing on politics. That doesn't mean he is as good at that as he was at chess.

At least that is how I read the comment. For instance, Curt Schilling was a great baseball player. That doesn't mean his understanding of politics is great, regardless of how vocal he is about it now that he is retired. Same concept.
Nice idea, but if it was me to implement it - would definitely go for Cyrillic rather than x for ч, ш, щ etc.

Sxto es Slovio? -> Що е словйо?
Ucxijte Slovio tper! -> Учайте словйо тпер!

or something like it. seems way more Slavic to me... even though the old cyrillic (original if u want) is nothing like the modern cyrillic. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Cyrillic_alphabet#/media...

Interestingly the original script by Cyril and Methodius was called Glagolic and was quite hard (see here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glagolitic_script). It was not until their scholar Kliment took to simplify the script, and it seems is mostly his decision to make the characters more like the Coptic and Greek. Even though his interpretation of the Glagolic alphabet bears the name of his teacher.

I came here precisely to say 30-40% of websites seems remarkably high.

The number of actual canvas elements used as canvases I've noted in the wild is pretty small. I've been playing with the canvas element since it was a Safari exclusive they added to make building dashboard widgets more powerful, and I can probably say the number of times I've found them actually useful in building a site is on one hand.

I think you're right that most of them are probably for fingerprinting.

Right. Under the older copyright regime in the US, you more or less had to add the appropriate incantation/symbols and send a copy to the Library of Congress or you pretty much had no leg to stand on collecting compensation if Disney or whoever decided to rip you off. The US decided that wasn't a good thing and that works should be copyrighted automatically. (Registration still has some benefits for collecting on copyright claims.) But that also means you now need to get rid of that automatic copyright, assuming you can, if you want to do so.
Once you get below -20 C (-4 F) salt loses a lot of effectiveness. Here in Edmonton we had a few weeks of ~-30 C and the roads were polished to an icy shine, there was no getting away from it and no amount of sand or salt helped for any amount of time.

Similar thing happened to my model3 early on (late 2019) and I had a furious but futile conversation with service centre about how dangerous my situation was. They stonewaled me after “kernel panic, dont know why”.

The car had it’s own “blue screen of death” in the first lane, after a turn, on central expressway right next to their Santa Clara service center. (

Luckily there is signal right there so people were slowing down naturally but man the car turning into a brick and not even emergency blinkers (parking lights) working was shitty experience!

Meetup shot itself in the foot with the new look that effectively "siloes" you from finding new events.

In addition, instead of one summary email that could come once per week/month by default they bombard you with hundreds of worthless emails from evety small meetup. So you mass unsubscribe from everything.

Their rework that happened some time ago is basically digg 4.0 level of failure.

I still try to use the site when I remember about it. Yet it is so damn bad; poor search, poor communication, you cant even find how many meetups you attended (possibility of verified badges or w/e).

But this is the best we got. Maybe one day they get some sane designers, current design basically sabotages their core product.

This is still the best place for discovery of events.

I think I went to around 80-90 meetups and it is a pity that they also introduced this terrible monetization (people from silicon valley dont want to pay 2 dollars per attendee, imagine how it looks for the rest of the world - lots of groups dont use meetup anymore).

Lack of social interaction, and this is coming from an introverted person, It's difficult to quantify how valuable a mundane water cooler chat with a coworker can be but when you remove them entirely you really start to see how important these things were to maintain your sanity, I know there are slack's channels to these types of things but it's just not the same

>However, I ran into a number of (firmware?) compatibility issues with Thunderbolt docks and dongles that made the journey harder than anticipated.

The advertising and hype kind of masks this issue. The reality of the new Mac architecture is that it is a "gaming console" compared to a normal PC. It's hyper optimized for a specific type of use and cuts corners in implementing hardware protocols and IO because there's no need for the average apple customer. As long as you only use the M1 console how it was intended it's amazing and fast. But attempt to do anything outside the normal with it and the console's glaring hardware short-cuts come to light.
It would certainly bring tithing into an interesting focus: since bitcoin, for example, isn't owned by any single [government] entity, and any increase can only be realized by spending it, should you tithe 10% of your bitcoin to your church? If not, how much should be (presuming you believe the 'tithe' is still binding on Christians today as it was for the Jews of the Old Covenant)?

This discussion could probably also extend to investment portfolios - have you actually "increased" when the value of your investments go up? Or do you only consider any "increase" when it is realized from the virtual to the real?
In general the discovery is mostly for the people looking for a club, rather than the club themselves. I believe there's also huge space for creating new clubs. (e.g. 10 people in a town search for a Netball team but it doesn't exist. Perfect chance to self organise). From the research I've done, tennis tends to be an outlier because the physical clubs tend to be quite large, well known, and have something for everyone. As opposed to football or netball where you just play in a park in an evening and you have no idea of the ability level until you show up.

I completely agree communications is going to be tough. I really don't want to build yet another chat app. There just aren't any drop in solutions though. Especially not with group messaging. The question has to be what your messaging for. If it's just notification messages, that can be solved with e-mail/sms/whatsapp.

Anyway, thanks for your feedback!
I second this, at least when compared with StackOverflow, Angel List and WeWorkRemotely.
Yeah, that's what I was implying ;D

I think an older probe also took the first digital pictures before bitmap images were a thing, they could digitise it at the probe end but had to colour in the pixels on a piece of paper at the other end if I recall correctly. Point is, NASA had to solve a lot of digital communication problems long before they had established terrestrial solutions or before computers were even capable of solving the whole problem on their own.

Then again, even if the timing was reversed, a lot of terrestrial communication protocols have no chance of working properly at the ranges required for space exploration - something I've been meaning to look into is the redundancy requirements over those long distances, since re-transmission is so costly in terms of latency that it probably makes sense to pack as much redundancy into the signal as possible, we already do this with terrestrial communication in the form of various codes, but there's a finer balance between increased bandwidth and the relatively low latency cost of re-transmission in the case of unrecoverable sequences... I'm guessing you want a far lower probability of loss for a 43 hour round trip.

I wonder would these actions be then applied equally. Let's say USA invades Iran.

Should we then terminate all of the domains and tlds hold by any USA based entity. Reclaim all of the IP space hold by them too? Surely it would solve some starvation issue, and be just, but do we want that?
Okay, Dr. Strangelove.
There are just active disinformation campaigns all over the place to do that. They want to overload our cognitive capacities to reason and find middle ground.
