Ok so I am laughing because of course the spicing is important, but the important thing to understand here is that there is no correct spicing: it can go in many different ways. That's part of the beauty of these sorts of dishes, you can perturb them and not get burnt out so easily. Oh lemme tell you about regional Indian, but I can't because I am a child there.

So... I sometimes send this dish off in a French Provençal direction, or sometimes toward Mexican Sonoran, or even Oaxacan. But you don't need to do that, all you need is some umami, and some basics. We have eaten it many times over the decades with Worcestershire Sauce as the umami (basically anchovies in soy) and the basics are a good grind of black pepper and potentially something sweet, if the tomatoes suck, as they often do. Don't get too fancy: you want to eat this after a frustrating day at work, freezer->microwave->plate. We add whatever chili concoctions we feel like as we like a bit of burn. But you don't need to do that!

So: take ground beef, cook if raw, use the fat to saute the vegetable matter, compose layers of beef first, then green matter, tomatoes, and then finally sliced potatoes covering the top. Add stock and spices to fill to just covering the potatoes, cook until as moist as you like. We like it saucy, but not a stew though. The more you make, the more nutritious and tasty comfort food you have for those days when... maybe I'll just order DoorDash.

Buen provecho!
I've had people drop out after accepting an offer from me that I still chat with and have relied on for reference calls (they're a manager now). It's really not a big deal, if they got a better offer somewhere else I wouldn't want them to feel like they're stuck with my company, that's not going to be a productive relationship anyway.

At least that she’s very proud of me.

Which is at odds with how I’m treated by my immediate coworkers. Like there’s some respect there, but my team are the only hourly employees. Suffice to say, it’s supposed to be a white collar job but I feel and get treated blue collar. I don’t feel much pride.
>If we could all stop shilling for "Green Hydrogen" that would be great

why?
A Green Hydrogen company that builds infrastructure to make ship and sell GREEN Hydrogen is a good thing.

Hiding your energy source under the guise of "clean energy electric cars" is the bullshit we should stop shilling.
Any other color Hydrogen marketing is just the same bullshit shilling as well.

Green Hydrogen goes a long long way towards fixing the institutional issues we have with greenwashing.

The only argument for it I've read is that it indirectly forces auto manufacturers to have local service centers to handle repairs, warranty work, etc.

I have a lot of optimism for The Ford EV business. First they are making some great EVs and they aren’t to proud or set in their ways to realize the friction points for prospective EV buyers and owners.

If they keep making the right moves, and improving the whole Ford EV experience, I might be inclined to purchase a Ford EV next time instead of another Tesla.
No, I give them a range, and tell them the principles behind it. “My range for this role is $XX - $YY. How much we offer you depends on your skills and experience. If you want to negotiate for the high end of that range, you’ll need to be truly excellent. If you think that range is off for this role, I’m happy to talk about that, too.”

This is easy, honest, transparent, and gets both parties off to a good start. If I do my research well the range is pretty close to the market for what I need. If the candidate wants more they can either argue with me, or say goodbye and find another position.
It 100% factored into my decision to cancel my pre-order for a Lightning. The dealer said to me via email in December 2021:

The latest communication is that order banks will open in January. Ford will be sending invitations to build / order in waves as to keep up with the demand. The invitations will be prioritized based on reservation time stamps. Your reservation is number 138 at our location. I have no way to track where you are in the total reservation list. Once 2022 model orders have been fulfilled, Ford will start the process over again. They expect to start taking orders for 2023 models about mid next year. Given the demand and number of reservation ahead of you, it is reasonable to think that you will not be able to order until mid 2022 for a 2023 model. I also need to mention that Managment has indicated there will be an addendum added to the MSRP. We are expecting that to be about $10,000 but could be a little lower or higher dependant on supply vs demand.

I called Ford corporate who didn't care. So I canceled my preorder and decided not to proceed with becoming a net new Ford customer so long as dealers are involved. This news gives me hope that model is not long for this world - thank goodness.
Either they like being jobless (which isn’t really a typical type of person in my experience), or the job itself was terrible due to pay, commute, working conditions, company culture, etc. or they were able to find more favorable employment outside of 70M.

I would love to know what jobs were difficult to fill and how much they paid because “The Great Resignation” narrative (kind of conveniently) squarely puts the blame for the failure of this business on a caricature of lazy poors and the government. This narrative also absolutely vindicates the founder and management because the demise is because of an uncontrollable external force.

It's okay to be a fanboy! Evangelism is needed for any great product/company/ideology. But on HN you'll get typically called out for disingenuous or bad-faith lines of rhetoric.

The person above gave you a perfectly reasonable answer to your original question of "What about Signal is not trustworthy?". It'd be kind to acknowledge that they at least have a single iota of merit.
I personally think that 80 columns is not quite enough in today's world. Having said that, I feel that 80 is a good compromise between displays that are too narrow, (I grew up in a world where displays were as narrow as 32 columns) and displays that are too wide (132 columns can be unwieldy).

No matter which number we settle on, it won't be suitable for everybody. So let's use a reasonable common denominator that is also currently a world standard and leave it there for stuff that needs to be widely used. There's nothing stopping us from using other numbers in our personal systems. (I like about 110)
It would only matter if their MSRP prices were identical though, right? I don't buy new cars so I don't actually know. Is it common for competing brands like Chevrolet and Ford to price similar models at identical price? I always assumed thered be variations.
These are extremely unconvincing and rather shallow refutations.

I expect more of people on this forum honestly.

Taking the core of your argument: "Trust".

The point of E2EE is that we don't trust the network. We put all the trust in the client, something we control. Or at the very least we seperate our concerns. (please refer to this lovely interactive "Tor" diagram by the EFF for what I mean by splitting out concerns: https://www.eff.org/pages/tor-and-https )

Not being able to run your own client is a pretty big problem. At the very least in that case you should expect to be able to run on another network.. Otherwise that's a lot of trust for one entity and it's not different than just using TLS with HPKP/CA pinning

To give a direct refutation to one of your points: "Isn't WebRTC open source too?"

It is, but they're using native libraries which are compiled. Like I said, it's a good argument, but the result is that they don't have reproducible builds.

> Their code, their decisions.

Extremely dismissive, almost to the point of insulting.

It is absolutely not true that they are above criticism because they built something. They've positioned their product as a security product. Thus it will be judged on those merits. There are many pro-signal zealots who will bend over backwards to defend it in all circumstances. It's intellectually dishonest to do so in the face of valid criticisms.

I will shut up when federation is supported, or you can run your own network, or you can bring third party clients.

You need this to be able to trust your client, because the point is to decouple some trust from a single entity.

that's what e2ee is!

That being said, is there any counterpoint to this view?

1. A national dealership network is at minimum, a soft-guarantee that your car can be maintained/recalled/fixed without you jumping through hoops.

Unfortunately, that soft-guarantee is saddled with all the other baggage of car dealerships. Pushy sales-people, extended warranties, predatory loans, etc.

2. It forces you to buy local, so not all the money flows out of your community, and into Detroit - some of it stays to circulate in your town.

3. People want to sell/trade their cars in, and Craigslist can be a pain in the ass.

4. People like to test-drive cars. People really like to test-drive used cars. See point #3. By the time Tesla starts holding used car inventories[1], and lets local buyers test-drive them[2], their 'showroom' starts looking less like an innovation, and more like a non-franchised dealership, where instead of the franchise owner skimming profit off the top, it just goes up the food chain, directly to corporate.

[1] Which they are.

Ask yourself honestly, in this situation (dropping out of an accepted offer), what outcome would you have wanted? The person in question resigning themselves to working with you and being miserable so that they didn't go back on their word? I don't see the positive in having a disengaged employee who's only with your company out of obligation.
It's a big purchase, so you'd want to at least test it out in person?
I work for a Fortune 500 who has clients who range from Fortune 500 to Fortune 1000, I see TONS of Angular throughout the organization. There's also React, but a lot more Angular being paired with Java. Without data we're all just sharing anecdotes colored by our individual experience.
It's an anecdote. Conversations, text-based or auditory, happen in passing. Maybe you missed where someone literally did drop a link (this post) and people, including the mods who renamed the title from Svelvety to Svelte and then back again, confused the two.
That's just a racket for the dealerships though.
I worked at a company that did this, and I left in part because they wouldn't just come out and say, "We don't actually want to hire American employees." Instead they recruited American employees with promises of fast advancement to higher pay, but never actually advanced them.

It's absolutely their prerogative to make a decision like that, only to be competitive in low-wage markets, but they should just own it.

I think being upfront about this like Graph is doing is a much clearer approach.
This. And localities outlawing direct sales due to eons of local lobbying.

I bought a (Toyota) Scion xB when it first came to the States in 2004. The brand rollout was fixed-price, advertised as no-haggle. A big play for that era's Gen Z, Gen X. Focus was on personal customizations as upgrades, not much else rom the mono-spec model. I loved the whole concept. Dealerships hated it.

I loved that car, drove it until it the wheels fell off.

Point being, Tesla is hardly the first one to pull off this model.

In many small to medium size towns if you find the family who owns the local ($BRANDNAME) dealership they are often among the wealthiest people in the entire county.

This describes the "Great Resignation" but doesn't explain it.

Of course, there are a lot of things going on. However, I think one important thing is that American workplaces, over the last twenty or more years, gradually accumulated immensely toxic/abusive cultures. At the point of the pandemic, when many people had unemployment/work-at-home/savings, a lot of workers' had their tolerance of that interrupted and then just refused to return.

The thing with the situation is toxic work environments basically are going to double down on their claims, their view of what a sane environment and reasonable pay are. So these organizations are eating through employees and so they'd be the worst customers of a job board. The question how much 70m Record vetted their customers.

(Also, maybe we can imagine that products actually do what they do and it is not normal to fear lies and nefarious agenda behind every offering?)
F-150 is the second best selling vehicle in the WORLD. Not just the US. Think about that for a moment. Even if Ford simply replaces 1/2 of them with EV, that’s more than 15x what Tesla delivered in 2021.

It's interesting that the HackerNews guideline makes no statement about whether a custom headline is sensational or reasonable. It is: "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." They probably have a slightly different reason for this rule than many people first imagine. And that reflects in the actual wording of the rule being slightly different than many people would first phrase it themselves.

I think this is the case for both Japan, and the western world in general. Like OP has stated, in one of the replies below, Toyota isn't new to electric cars and they aren't stupid.

If current events are anything to go by, we shouldn't bet on energy resources of others. If we truly want a greener future, and the world itself to be in a better place, why should we make the same mistakes again?

I understand how common a "battery" is nowadays, and how great of a solution they might seem. After all, they are readily available.

But we shouldn't kid ourselves. Where do these materials come from? What conditions are those miners subject to? Is it really wise, to add that much weight to a body in motion, both in terms of safety, and energy efficiency? Wouldn't we enable authoritarian countries to strangle others again, by further rewarding favorable geographical locations? Or, further reward colonial powers, that have taken over Africa, again? I mean, Congo has 80% of cobalt resources (needed in high density batteries, LFH cobalt-free batteries have about 50% of the energy density found on their cobalt based counterparts, which means a low 0.16kWh/kg density) and China owns the majority of the mines there. Look up the Sicomines deal.

I know this post might sound cynical, and perverse. But really, I don't really think this is the way forward.
Yeah I bought both a Saturn in the 90’s and a Tesla in the 20’s, and while it was nice to not have to negotiate to not be screwed over I still had to spend way longer hanging out with dealer sales people. Being an engineer I hate talking to people. I much preferred my Tesla purchase experience.
No dealerships doesn't mean no test drives. Tesla offers them today.
The owners of those local dealerships also tend to have a big hand in driving town politics as they’re often the richest people around.
Right, this is just an answer for "why has this obvious disruption never come up in the last ~100+ years"
thank you :) our team worked really hard and it definitely pushed our abilities further! and I really enjoyed working with Svelte!
Looking at Detroit.. I don’t think a lot of money is flowing there.
The other side of that is the dealership owner is often the richest person in a small town and has extremely outsized impact on local politics.

It's not designed to convert existing F150 buyers.

It's designed to get the guy who has a Tesla and a Tacoma in his driveway and who sees fullsize domestic trucks as a penis extension for backwards hicks to trade both those in.

This isn't about converting existing owners. It's about growing the potential market.
This is the part that I don't get.

15 years ago I worked at a place where there was an entire room of people who were hired to literally do nothing but read your internal mail all day. One of the deployment rules were to make sure they had unimpeded access to everything (except for executives of course). Please don't misinterpret me as suggesting I like the practice.

I can see why people are upset that this technology is being offered, I am too. But I can't see why people are suggesting it's a new low for corporations that have always been doing this.

As long as the pay moves UP. Not down. Then I will support removing location-based pay.

You just said this:

"I'm not sure yet if they will/have rescinded her offer or not."

In the meanwhile, the timeline got clarified? Anyway, I agree with you if the offer was made when the downturn was already obvious.

> Some people consider Runes alphabetic and some do not because it does not follow the order of ABC.

Even in narrow contexts, that's not how linguists use the term. Futhark runes are pretty clearly alphabets, because consonants and vowels are treated as independent symbols.

In the narrower sense, some scholars distinguish "true" alphabets from two other types of segmental script, abjads and abugidas. These three differ from each other in the way they treat vowels: abjads have letters for consonants and leave most vowels unexpressed; abugidas are also consonant-based but indicate vowels with diacritics to or a systematic graphic modification of the consonants. In alphabets in the narrow sense, on the other hand, consonants and vowels are written as independent letters.

It's unreadable until you learn the language. It is not something you can just look at and start writing/reading.

Also there aren't that many special symbols, it's not scala after all.

Spend two weeks with it and it makes sense why things are the way they are for the most part.
> Most of the pain here come from the unholy trifactor: combining async, lifetimes and dynamic dispatch with trait object closures; which is indeed very awkward in practice.

Even in regular Rust, trying to get too clever with lifetimes can cause serious pain. The usual culprit is complex code that tries to never allocate memory. "Oh, well this closure borrows this parameter from the parent function, and then stores a reference to it in this stack-based structure inside the closure, and then we pass everything by reference to this higher order function..." Just say no.

If you add async to the mix, then you need to keep your ownership simple. If you have a long-running async function, then pass parameters by value! If you have a polymorphic async function, then return your result in a Box. (This also breaks up the generated state machine used to implement async functions, and can reduce binary size.)

So much of this pain is caused by premature optimization.

In C++, if you get to clever, you eventually make a mistake and segfault. In Rust, if you get too clever, it eventually becomes impossible to satisfy the borrow checker. Most of the time, the solution is to be less clever.

Async Rust was a fascinating experiment, but in practice, I think it turned out to be a tool that's best used conservatively. I've written some very stable and high-performance production code using async Rust. But I keep it simple when I can.
Do not use async rust when you are learning. It is ok once you are proficient in rust.
