Back in the early-mid 80s, we used to race on MTBs with quick release on the seatpost clamp, and precisely the right lube to make sure the seat would drop on demand. That didn't deal with the "how do get it back up to the regular height", but before the 90s rolled around there were already several spring-based solutions to that. Dropper posts work better, but they are not a new idea.

Roughly speaking, 2× the levels compared to purifier off, if I understand the paper correctly.

Considering that running a purifier lowers my yearly average PM2.5 exposure by approximately 60-80×, I think I'll continue running the purifier. Interesting data nonetheless.
Wait, no, that's not right. Say you have $100 in the bank and you make $100/month and spend $110/month on people and that's the only expenditure.

You're going to survive 10 months.

Suppose you fire 10%, so now you spend $99/month and let's say revenue is linear, so now you make $90/month. You're now going to last 100/9 = 11.11 months and that's more than 10% longer already.

Now if you fire from positions that you got in anticipation of them contributing but they don't then you could even go negative to positive.

So it's not 10% more days even in the worst case where you are running something like a consulting business where revenue is proportional to number of heads and for complex operations it can make you profitable.

> I understand the desire of people to hate others just because others a richer...

Is that the case, though.

I for one don't care if Musk is the wealthiest person on Earth, or just some random middle class Joe. Fact is, he absolutely _loves_ to tout how much harder and longer he works than anyone else. That alone screams "bad leader" all around, and in my experience, anyone going public on matters like this, is overcompensating.

> ... it’s not just Elon Musk that gets this.

This is a very specific issue we are talking about. I cannot recall Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Larry Page... making public statements about how much more they work than their employees, or how lazy and entitled their employees are. So while other wealthy individuals may get some hate, it's certainly not because they very publicly insult their workers.
Round-trip DNS consistency is pretty basic and my ISP provides it by default. Note that I didn't say your ISP has to delegate to you, or that your PTR record needs to match your EHLO or anything of that nature.
This fully hits what I experienced.

I'm using Rust since ~2 months. At the beginning I was trying to write my usual C/C++ code and I got completely entangled with lifetimes relationships and the code ended up becoming a mess.

Nowadays as soon as the compiler starts mentioning lifetimes I see that as a warning => I then take a step back and change approach/design => no problems.

I use a little bit of async (I create dedicated variables that are moved to the async functions) and classic multithreading (I use "mpsc" to exchange data between the main & subthreads) and so far I never had a single segfault nor any kind of weird behaviour, which is incredible if compared to some other languages at least for my programming skills :)

Well funny you should ask, but yes! Two times. One time, a power relay on the control module shorted and blew a hole in the circuit board. Had to replace the control module there. Another time, the start capacitor needed to be replaced on the giant 2KW squirrel cage motor. I removed the blower, disassembled it, lubricated moving parts, and of course tested it out on a stand. That much blowing power is quite impressive when right next to your face.

I wrote one (very opinionated) in C# ASP.NET a long time ago (14 years or so and since ported to all versions of .net core besides 6) because I hated the plumbing I had to do with most options in the space. 4 years ago, I started a large project and I was pushed to use vanilla asp.net with the promise that things were better now. Unfortunately I miss my own framework now all the time; it would let you focus on the logic and your core strengths. I had to create data models and logic and the framework would give me frontends (mobile, desktop and web) and api’s, with auth etc without me having to think about it. Then a frontend person had a working system they could fix the frontends for without touching the logic etc. I added, in 2017, micro services which, without having you to think too much about them, allowed you to point out which namespaces you want run seperately. And deployment (on aws, azure and alicloud) was all automated.

If I find the time, I will clean it up and open source it. And for side projects I will use it again.

I don't know about Ford, but GM is pretty well positioned to eat the US electric car market by producing more affordable electric cars (like Hyundai and Kia are doing, but mostly not yet in the US market). They could well fail to do so, but if they do, it would be an own goal.
Yeah, the plural and variations on words are always a bit strange. It also throws me off when something that is the direct opposite is "close" because it is associated.

Back in my day this was all called phreaking [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phreaking ]

I had the pleasure of knowing a guy who knew a guy when I was in school. Basically there was a prefix 786 that you could (within the area code of course) dial the prefix for the callback 971 and the last 4 digits of the host (thankfully the number of the pay phone is right there on the pay phone) and then hang up twice the phone would ring until you picked the phone up.

Fast forward to another thing of the past, the mall! The mall had BANKS of pay-hones just sitting around. So a group of friends and I got to all of the banks and decided to make all the phones ring. We walked around the mall forever as people just looked at the ringing phones and carried on about their lives.

After doing it for about an hour security caught on and I got banned from the mall, I think for the fourth or fifth time.

It was a beautiful site to see. Two dozen or so payphones just ringing and people completely perplexed as to why.

Abstract: "Different users of machine learning methods require different explanations, depending on their goals. To make machine learning accountable to society, one important goal is to get actionable options for recourse, which allow an affected user to change the decision f(x) of a machine learning system by making limited changes to its input x. We formalize this by providing a general definition of recourse sensitivity, which needs to be instantiated with a utility function that describes which changes to the decisions are relevant to the user. This definition applies to local attribution methods, which attribute an importance weight to each input feature. It is often argued that such local attributions should be robust, in the sense that a small change in the input x that is being explained, should not cause a large change in the feature weights. However, we prove formally that it is in general impossible for any single attribution method to be both recourse sensitive and robust at the same time. It follows that there must always exist counterexamples to at least one of these properties. We provide such counterexamples for several popular attribution methods, including LIME, SHAP, Integrated Gradients and SmoothGrad. Our results also cover counterfactual explanations, which may be viewed as attributions that describe a perturbation of x. We further discuss possible ways to work around our impossibility result, for instance by allowing the output to consist of sets with multiple attributions. Finally, we strengthen our impossibility result for the restricted case where users are only able to change a single attribute of x, by providing an exact characterization of the functions f to which impossibility applies."
Dealerships are orthogonal to local showrooms.

Imagine manufacturers buying out the dealership lots, turning a good portion of the lot to a small track for testing the cars handling, maneuvering, and acceleration without going onto public roads. I'm assuming a closed course will be much better for their insurance than going onto public roads and much more fun for customers since they'll (presumably) have straightaways and corners. And the fact that they could just keep a model car for each trim level for their line up might incentivize them to not be stingy on test drives (and when the car is past a certain point they sell it at a discount).

Another portion could be turned into electric charging stations using solar. With how many dealerships there are I think this is a neat use of the wasted lot space.

So all in all, you then would go check out the cars, order the car you want online, and then pick it up on arrival at the showroom, all while doing away with the haggling and downright scummy tactics dealers currently use. The fact they default to screwing unwitting customers over should be warning enough that there needs to be change.
Not even close to what this does. It basically runs a headless version of VSCode on the remote machine, with all of the necessary extensions, and your local version of VSCode controls it.

I get Your point with the equipment quite well. I started cycling in a post-Soviet country in the 90s. Equipment prices were a major concern, so we reused what we could. My first trips were with paper maps in plastic folios...

These days, having a reasonable job / salary, it's a trade-off in which I have much more of a choice.

GPS / head unit is a mean to have the overall route visualized. Can You substitute by a printout of major cities / crossroad names as an itinerary? Sure. Been there, done that too. Is the GPS worth 200Eur for me? Yeah, it is, just by the time I save not having to fiddle with maps on every stop.

When it comes to palsy, there isn't one silver bullet to solve it all. It's much like any RSI in that respect. Body position, muscle conditioning, stretching, general ergonomics. The electric shifting is just one of them (definitely not the first on my list). But since the cost of getting it wrong is maybe a month of limited fine motor control of my hand(s)... I really don't regret spending an extra few hundred bucks.

Does that mean I have bulk discount at Rapha? Hell no.

That's what I mean by things being less binary than "cheap mechanical bikes" vs "expensive carbon / electrical / Rapha jerseys". I know that there are plenty of people who fit one or the other case, but there's also quite a few of us who are somewhere in between.

If You'd like, maybe try checking out "Path Less Pedaled" (a youtube channel). Clickbait : "What You will see may surprise You!" ;-)

That's a legitimate question. It's just floating-point jargon. Here's what it means:

> I’m well aware of banker’s rounding, and rounding up, and round down, and rounding towards zero, and rounding towards signed infinity, etc.

MPFR supports most of those rounding modes you mentioned:

https://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-current/mpfr.html#Rounding

> But “correct” as a formal modifier is new to me

It just means that once you select a rounding mode, it is guaranteed (modulo bugs) to give you the correct answer rounded according to your selected rounding mode.

At first one can think: "obviously, who wants incorrect rounding?". And indeed all recent floating-point hardware implements correct rounding... But only for 32- or 64-bit floats, and only for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

By contrast, most libc/libm implementations do not have correct rounding for transcendental functions (cos, sin, tan, exp, log, etc.). There are some exceptions (Rlibm, CRlibm).

MPFR implements correct rounding

- at any bit width and

- for all transcendental functions.

The BI story thing is only a slimy tactic if you assume the sexual assault accusation to be true. If Elon knows its false and a tactic to paint him in a specific light, how could he be blamed for getting out in front of the narrative? Should he just let people say reputationally-damaging things about him, without intervening in any way?

I think we've seen recently with the Amber Heard case that it's better to let these things shake out in court first.
The long term issue I see with Tesla is that, while I agree that electric is the future, multiple manufacturers are now starting to enter the space Tesla currently occupies. Up until recently, you didn't have much choice aside from Tesla for premium electric vehicles. By 2024, however, it seems like most of the current major automobile manufacturers will be offering electric options, and a few additional startups are attempting to squeeze into this space as well.

Tesla has some solid engineering to their credit, but they also have a reputation for poor quality control (in fit and finish in particular). It would be one thing if Elon Musk showed some initiative in addressing these QC issues. The recent Twitter diversion however along with other erratic behavior by Musk seems to indicate a lack of focus, at a time where a strong focus at Tesla is sorely needed. Tesla can no longer coast in the EV market, they will be far from the only player in the future.
They could. They tried to make a metric chain (2cm spacing rather than 1 inch) but it didn't catch on. Campy has kind of done that with their weird pull ratios right? Or does that only make sense if Campy was second to some drivetrain size (I'm not sure who was first or second to each cassette size).
One of many examples of why we shouldn’t hold corporations to the low standards we hold individuals.

I.e. never give a corporation the benefit of the doubt. They’re the most important producers of our economy, and doing so allows them to be lazy (aka the complete opposite of “productive”)
>When reproducibility doesn't matter,

If it doesn't matter, then high precision rarely matters either. Once you have results with unknown noise in them, and you do a few operations on those, the noise compounds, at approximately sqrt(N) bits for N steps of computation (rough estimate, it certainly depends on algorithm selection, compiler nuances, stability of problem, etc.). So high precision degrades quickly when doing any work without using a reproducible and understood rounding mode.

>correct rounding is that it is the easiest mechanism to unlock reproducibility

Any rounding method works works for reproducibility - truncate, round to zero, Bankers rounding, etc., all (roughly) equivalently hard/easy to implement. However, pretty much none of these are possible without the ability to do correcting rounding first as a result of the Table Makers' Dilemma.

For example, Banker's rounding is generally better for doing computation than the usual correctly rounded. Knuth has some papers on this somewhere which are fascinating.

Also note most of the non-reproducible issues in numerical computation are compiler added - compile code with GCC version X, get one result, compile with later version, and results may change. Or across compilers. Negative 0, denormals, rounding modes, all need carefully dealt with. It can be done, but is not trivial. Keeping floating point solid is very, very tricky over compilers and time.
Please add a practice mode. This will just go into the long list of Wordle clones that I will never play because it's only one a day.
