Because as long as we have capitalism it will be the poor and minorities that will be restricted from reproduction. The US had had its fair share of eugenics in its history [1], and the Nazis have shown the worst examples by far.

Besides, it is not even necessary to delve into the questionable ethics and side effects of eugenics, forced sterilizations, one-child policies and similar ideas that have been tried and proven catastrophic when the Earth has way more than enough resources to feed all the humans on it, even in Africa. The problem is that we manage the resources we have completely wrong:

- the US has utterly absurd and wasteful grandfathered water and other natural resource rights, and obviously companies exploit them simply because they can and because Nestle in particular has spent a lot of money on lobbying to ensure they can continue leeching off of society [2].

- an absurd amount of food (depending on estimation, 30-50%!) goes to waste due to spoilage, because it doesn't meet quality standards (the running joke in the European Union was a directive that limited cucumbers from being too curved [3]) or because it is discarded in restaurants due to oversized portions

- some countries commit crimes against nature, e.g. Brazil burning off the Amazon forest to feed cows that end up in the US and EU, and governments allow this atrocity instead of banning meat imports from there

- agricultural land is abused for drug production (cocaine in South America, poppy in Afghanistan) because drugs are worth so much more money to cartels than farming to feed the population could ever be

- Africa in particular has lost a lot of its agricultural power due to political mismanagement and toxic donations from Europe and the US (it's hard for local farmers and textile producers to compete against virtually free handouts)

- European and US agriculture subsidies have completely warped into a monstrosity that favors large ultra-farms over small operators

I see your point, and I can see some application in group rides, social events with a less fit SO, but
1) in TT, or even in any regular bike climbing, holding constant power is an important skill to master. Try doing a 45min varying gradient climb at 5-15% below FTP. It is not only your legs, but also your brain anticipating the gear shifts. Give the Alpe du Zwift a try, turn ERG mode off, and you'll understand what I mean. Variance in the power output wears you down. (that's why we use Normalised Power numbers for fatigue). You've to train that, not by doing3min on-1min off intervals, but by riding on real tarmac. Also, after few thousands hours of training you don't need to look at your head unit to know if your power is constant or not.
2) Power is not the only bottleneck for riding 300W, 400W, 450W for 10min, that where the handling skills of your bike come in play. That one of the reasons why we do 'speed training', cycling behind a buddy on a scooter/car. To get used to the cadence, braking, steering, ... Imagine participating in a race, riding 50+km/h without any fast cornering/breaking experience, that's a hazard!
3) Imagine doing an all-out interval session on TT bike, in a full aero position, and getting passed by an elderly on e-bike. Everyone will think "that guy is a bit weird", won't they?
4) Max. power output of this motor is 250W, I believe this to be an EU regulation. That is 20% less power on the rear wheel than the FTP of an average amateur racer. There are also speed regulations in EU, 25-28 km/h. That's certainly the Strava numbers to show off! You can make it a motorcycle/scooter and remove these limits, but then you'll need to wear motorcycle helmet in many EU countries. Also, you are no longer allowed on the bicycle lanes.
5) People who are serious enough about their cycling are generally quite serious on the bike position. For example, the Q-factor is the distance between your shoe cleats. Favero released power meter pedals for Shimano SDP-SL cleats, but added 1cm to the q-factor, just look at the flame war it caused.
6) Most people train on their 'race-day' bike. Some have a spare 'bad weather' bike. Now, you want to train on an additional training bike, with a different geometry to the race-day bike? Or are you expecting to have a TT bike with this drive train + a race day TT-bike? TT-bike will run into 5-15k USD, I might like my hobby, but won't put extra 5-15k for this nice to have feature.

I think 'niche market' is an underestimation, since there are already assisted racing/MTB bikes (limited to 28km/h), just slap power meter pedals on and you're ready to go.

Everybody is flawed at some level. Maybe when you get to a certain level of fame and/or wealth it just amplifies all the good and bad in you.

I mean look at all the other “big names” in tech… Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs. These are highly flawed individuals.

Hell look at the entertainment industry… so many of the most famous successful people turn out to be hugely flawed. Take Jonny Depp for example—that dude has some major issues. Or to a much greater extent Bill Cosby. Cosby transformed TV in so many different incredibly positive ways and look how it ended…

Fame and wealth does some weird stuff to people.

Well, they're not validating JSON. Forms are text value fields that aren't always sent as JSON later, or necessarily sent over the wire at all.

They definitely are using their DSL for things far out of the scope of JSON schema. The builtin debouncing is pretty neat: https://formkit.com/essentials/validation#debounce-milli

Forms in UI code also tend to have a bunch of business-logic type validation (e.g. "there's already a user with that email address") which schemas alone are unsuitable for.

It's worth making a pact with yourself that you will revisit bookmarks and make use of them. I call them 'actionable items'. They're things you must take action on. I know the feeling of hoarding away knowledge bases and not acting, but you have to be accountable to yourself. You must act on them, because you said you would.

Like many words in the English language, “discrimination” has multiple meanings.

From Webster:

1. The act of discriminating.

2. The ability or power to see or make fine distinctions; discernment.

3. Treatment or consideration based on class or category, such as race or gender, rather than individual merit; partiality or prejudice.

You are talking about 2. The article is talking about 3.

3. is illegal in hiring. 2. is not.
Tesla was basically a fully government funded entity for the first decade of Musk's ownership. His greatest skill with Tesla lay in promoting it (and doing an even better job of promoting the myth of Tesla being hand built by himself alone) and in securing government benefits.

There was the direct half a billion dollars in loans the government gave Tesla after the financial crisis without which it would have collapsed. But even more so, the only reason Tesla could survive financially during the 2010s was a combination of government subsidies and government green credits which essentially had the likes of GM and Ford paying Tesla to build cars (so they could offset their credits).

What I will never get over is GM/Ford being so short sighted that they were willing to pay a competitor hundreds of millions of dollars, rather than investing in coming up with an electric platform of their own.

Boring Python: Dependency Management
There's problems in every country - no political system is devoid of corruption, cronyism and the influence of lobbyists. But one thing I do find unusual about US (and to a lesser extent the UK) politics is how extreme the partisan nature of every aspect of politics is. Any explicit discussion of politics is about "sides"; even the most good-natured discussions are about "balancing" red and blue, rather than representing the reality of diversity of thought. And that word - "diversity" - even means something different in the US than elsewhere: rather than actual diversity (acceptance of a spectrum), it rather tends to mean hitting a set of strictly predefined (discrete!) boxes.

I can't help but think - especially given the existence of some parallels in UK politics - that FPTP must have some input into creating this culture.
By thin I'd say there isn't enough content per article.

If all four were stuck together in one article and the tables full of irrelevant values were removed I'd say that was a good article.

Quite a few web publishers take a perfectly good article and make it hard to read by breaking it up into sections just because every time you click on the article it gets to load new ads and who knows... you might click on an ad by mistake and they hit the jackpot!
I love these sorts of frameworks! Makes doing forms a lot nicer, especially the live validation.

I feel like the next evolution is automatically generating a whole form from selecting a schema in an OpenAPI spec.

In a lot of specs, the type (string, email, phone, int, etc) is present along with any constraints (min/max length). Depending on the language/OpenAPI generator, it even preserves field order. It could massively speed up a lot of the more generic forms that happen in frontend.

"I've had the battery in my iPhone 6S replaced four times"

I've learned never to argue with an iPhone owner about such matters but I'll make an exception here which is the fact that the battery has had to be replaced four times only proves my point. What the hell's wrong with your phone or phone/battery combination? I still have an iPhone 3 and it still has its original battery - and it still works!

We each come from different worlds. The trouble is you've never been spoiled like me. I've owned a Nokia with a detachable battery: phone rings/vibrates, don't want to take call, hand in pocket, push battery release button, phone instantly dead. Disruption all over in seconds without others even knowing about it if the phone's on vibrate.

That's a real feature, as I have complete control. (Phones with sealed-in batteries cannot be turned off completely and the pseudo-off control takes forever to power the phone down.)

By definition, iPhone owners consider such a modus operandi as being inconceivable.

Incidentally, I can still achieve the 'Nokia' control on my Android phones that have removable batteries. Take the back/battery cover off the phone and discard it, stick a short tape to the battery to act as a pulling tag then pull tag when necessary.
From the linked page, they allege the data itself would be 540M, plus another 60M or so for app-framework (and 300M for social media trackers) so that'd likely be bigger than one might wish for an app

I don’t think it’s adequate to attempt to prevent discrimination. Discrimination is core to our fundamental human rights. It’s necessary to succeed at preventing discrimination.

“We applied best practices in the field to limit discrimination” should not be an adequate legal defence if the model can be shown to discriminate.

To clarify further, just because you tried to prevent discrimination doesn’t mean you should be off the hook for the material harms of discrimination to a specific individual. Otherwise people don’t have a right to be protected against discrimination they only have a right to people ‘trying’ to prevent discrimination. We shouldn’t want to weaken rights that much even if it means we have to be cautious in how we adopt new technologies.

But it would run badly. WASM isn't designed to do the sorts of things a Graal backend needs (at least not fast).

It'd be much more direct to ship apps directly to the desktop, or to develop a kind of Graal browser. You could even fork Chromium to add GraalVM inside Blink. Trying to put Java into the browser is a dead end though, browser makers won't tolerate competing platforms they don't control.
> In most cases, the easiest way to tell if you are line or staff is to look at the org chart of your business. You are line if your role makes up the largest fraction of the org chart.

If anything, the opposite is true. You are "line" when you are fewer in number having a more direct line to the power structure. In business, it is this, not your contribution that changes your negotiating leverage. In the original military example, mechanics, doctors, IT staff and dozens of other roles vastly outnumber actual soldiers.
I have no idea what you hope I am not saying :-)

I dislike jingoistic nationalism. "Historic wrongs" tends to be associated with things like revanchism and irredentism, which are political forces that lead to wars. Talk of "bravery" in warfare is normally about the glorious deeds of "our side". Nobody talks about the bravery of their enemy.

I've heard stories about despicable actions by Russian troops, which I'm inclined to believe - actions not compatible with any claim of bravery. But it seems to me undeniable that Putin, at least, has acted bravely. Perhaps "courageously" would be a better word, in the Sir Humphrey, Yes, Minister sense.
> I think OP would not be the confused one in 6 months time

Apologies, but this doesn't make any sense. The OP referred to the current size of Tesla ("mid-size car company"), with no reference to future cash flows, which is what the majority of most stock prices are made up of.

Looking at where tesla will be in six months _is_ looking at the future, which is the exact opposite of what I was remarking on. If the complaint had been "Tesla is overvalued due to irratuonal exuberance that its future revenues are unlikely to deliver on", I wouldn't really have any disagreement.
But if you get dividends or profits from stock as a private person that doesn’t apply and you just pay capital gains.

If you have a company or are a solo entrepreneur you can also reduce your profits by expensing things via the company (tech, cars, etc.) or investing further.
I've never had a job where this wasn't the case.
I think that's a good question.

I don't mind Musk much either way and while I'm annoyed when he wants to let Trump back on Twitter after what I strongly believe was an attempt at a coup d'état, or him removing, say, the mobile charger in new Teslas I still like the products that his companies make and when he sits down and does an interview he says things that resonate with me.

So what makes someone a visionary? I mean I sit down and have a vision where Earth is a multi-planetary species, we build an outpost on the Moon within the next few years, and then Mars, and then mine asteroids. But is that all it takes? If so I think the word visionary is often either misapplied or is quite diluted. But if we take into account the need to execute on such visions, naturally, calling Musk a visionary makes more sense. Maybe we just don't have a great word (or one isn't immediately coming to mind) for someone who says "we should go to Mars, and I'm going to participate/lead in the creation of the entity that will do that".

Looks sloppy. In the blog they are talking about 4000mAh battery and InkOS based on Android 11. Following the link to buy it in their store, it looks like a copy pasted from the blog. But all the pictures show between the chinese text are Android 10 and 3000mAh battery.

I'd expect better marketing material from a competent distributor, catering for english speaking markets. If they can't do that, why should I order from them, instead of AliExpress? Which has more data and pictures, btw. Price should be about the same, all taxes, customs&delivery included.

edit: s/scammy/sloppy
I work for a Fortune 500 company, but my entire career there (more than 20 years) has been focused on creating software used by 3rd part companies who sell our products (which range in size from a single booth in a Chinese marketplace to a mom and pop store in South America to a large multi store company in Europe). I suppose it is a staff position, but the primary people who drive where our product goes are outside the company I work for, which seems more like a line position. We are helping all these other companies with their core business of selling products. Products that my company makes.

However, my job is much more relaxed than that of a real line worker. We don’t charge any of these 3rd party companies for the software we build. So we never need to worry about things like billable hours. We are fairly free to decide what we want to work on. We have all the resources and benefits of a giant behemoth of a company to rely on. The job is almost never stressful and has great work-life balance. On the other hand, while I do have fantastic benefits and make a six figure salary, I am not making these $500k/year salaries I hear about. And we don’t have free food ;-)

And you aren’t concerned about Ukrainian troop losses or equipment losses?

Nor the unrest in the US about spending $50B+ in foreign aid while (literally) letting US babies starve?

Nor the inflation and supply shortages caused by lack of Ukrainian and Russia supplies to the West/abroad?

Nor our allies turning against us — eg, Saudi Arabia and Mexico challenging US foreign policy or the massive decrease in support between votes in the UN?

And you believe that Ukraine and it’s backers can sustain another 3-4 months of this combat? — and then muster the forces to expel Russia from Donbas and Crimea?
Apologies, I didn't mean that as a statement about you personally. I more meant to agree that those are aspects of Trek that many latch on to (while missing some of the healthier lessons).
> Speaking of OpenStreetMap, you can also download the OSM data and then use an offline map viewer like JOSM, Mapnik, or Tileserver, the latter two of which are web servers. I use OsmAnd~ on Android (available on F-Droid) but there are dozens of alternatives. I don't know which ones are best.

I also use OsmAnd~, which is great, and often find myself wondering what the best equivalent is for the Linux desktop.

Have you used any of these other solutions? I've used qmapshack along with generated garmin format images, but I find the OSM viewer ecosystem perplexing and I'm realistically unlikely to spend the required time to research and understand the various options.
Yeah I came here to say the same. Medellin has some of the nicest weather of anywhere I've ever been, and it's like that all year long.
