Wow, I was not expecting Ford transit vans to be above-average reliable, but a bit of searching around shows that indeed they are. Not as reliable as a Mercedes Sprinter, but I wonder if the operating costs are lower over the years (they cost roughly the same, which also surprised me) than the Mercedes.

I quite like the Prius line.

I don't know why there is a fight between BEVs and ICE.

If you are a one-car family or one-car single person, a plug-in hybrid can be that car.

When you can't charge, it's a heavy compact sedan that demolishes any pure ICE on city and highway MPG.

When you _can_ charge, it's a lighter BEV [1] that gets awesome MPGe for short commutes but also has no range anxiety.

My daily driver is pure ICE, but the computer has a live MPG readout, and now I feel guilty every time I brake... I don't need a pure BEV, I just want a battery to soak up braking energy.

[1] A Prius sedan is lighter than a Tesla Model S, I'm pretty sure. Feel free to fact-check me.

I’m skeptical that this reorg will allow Ford to sell direct to consumers, and I haven’t seen any reporting saying that it will.

Notably, Ford has explicitly said they’re not doing that: “We’re not keeping dealers in the mix 'for the moment.' We are betting on dealers for the long term. I want to make that really clear. I’m not mincing words. We will have new standards and a new experience. But we learned a lot by watching Tesla."

Maybe going direct is the secret plan, but I don’t see how they get there.

Tesla doesn't need more showrooms. But somebody like Honda or Toyota couldn't do with the same one-showroom-per-state model. That's why I have three Honda dealerships and three Toyota dealerships within 30 minutes drive of me.

> Tesla itself planned to close (all) their showrooms at some point,

Maybe for Tesla it could work. For Toyota - they'd be insane to do something like that.

> Do you think Ford can’t afford five or ten showrooms?

They could afford, but that would cost them. And it probably won't be very efficient. For Tesla, whose buyers have little concern for price, and whose meme value is obvious, it may work. For Ford, which very much competes on price and utility with about a dozen other makers, I don't think such a move would be survivable. They could sell one special model this way, maybe, but making whole business - I'll believe it when I see it, done not for a niche rich people's car but by some mass-market vendor.
At one point it was. You could even record the sound on a handheld recorder and play it back. But it hasn’t worked in a long while. Pay phones mitigated this in a low tech way - by software muting the handset.

Edit: oh yeah, and after that, you’d just call the operator and tell them the keys were sticky and to dial the number for you, then you’d “insert the coins” by playing the tones.

Well, or you just third party billed the call to someone you didn’t know. That worked too.
It was automated. The coin drop sound (or at least what was generated for the wire by the phone) was what drove the switch. All signals on POTS lines were sounds (thus the tones for pressing buttons or the numbers of clicks from dial phones).
So this. You have to learn to think differently about your problem. But then when you do, so many of these other issues just go away. A small amount of our product offering is implemented in Elixir. I wish more of it was. It’s my favorite part of the whole thing.

That’s a temporary state of affairs. If you’re talent constrained but not capital restrained the returns to talent will increase and those to capital decrease over time. See long run increases in returns to Labour in every country that has managed to successfully industrialize, e.g. China or South Korea. For a software developer example see the run up over the last two decades in salaries for Indian, Chinese or E European developers.

I'm really of the opinion that they did that on purpose given the philosophical underpinnings of the original. Like, to make a point, because Warner Bros owned the rights to their franchise and were going to make some banal crap anyways, with or without the Wachowskis.

Is it really fair and just, though? Is it fair, for example, for a business financed with Silicon Valley money, leveraging Californian infrastructure, enjoying US legal protections, to offer Americans a wage that only meets the needs of developers in Nigeria or Bosnia? If my money doesn't go as far in the US as it would in India, I'm being penalized for simply being born in the wrong place. Who do you think will take these jobs? In my opinion this is woke-washed outsourcing, and US-based developers should be boycotting any business that does this.
Yeah but birdwatching at least implies that the activity is varied.

What if someone was laying bricks for 9 hours and then came home ate dinner and then laid bricks for 3 more hours and did this for years and then took a vacation and laid bricks during the vacation as well?

The line is murky between passionate, dedicated, obsessed and insane.

I mean, do we understand that we get a single shot at life. This year we'll be as young as we'll ever be. Why do we behave as if though we have endless days that we can just toss away and be done with.

Programming full-time and then also during free time and vacations is simply put not healthy no matter how much Elon Musk and the west glamourise it. It simply leaves no time whatsoever for taking care of health, spending time with family, travelling, photography, reading novels, meeting romantic partners etc.

I own a fairly reliable ICE car from 2009 with ~100k miles, and I've had to get servicing for belts, water pump, brake pads, sway bars, oil changes, etc. I estimate I spent about $5k over the life the car on servicing.

That's excluding tires, wiper blades and air filter changes.

Owners of less reliable ICE cars probably spend more.

As an Australian we solved this by having root's resources swapped out and hosted on storage paid for and hosted in the UK.

We have another privileged account called gg which inherits all of root's privileges. Given that the root account may be transferred in the not too distant future there is increasing interest in making gg the new root. As to why we need such a privileged account in the first place to host garden parties and cut ribbons, gg provides a supervisor process that can kill deadlocked governments and respawn them.

It seems a bit silly but at least our government isn't based on VMS.

If you believe in some broadly unpopular view, there's always the possibility that you're just wrong. In the US we saw substantial shifts in policies over the last three presidential administrations, shifts that had real-life impacts on countless people. And while I can't speak directly to the health of the UK's democracy, I suspect that you may be exaggerating the degree that the different parties agree with each-other.

This is more or less the tone of 2600 magazine though -- people very cheerfully admit to stuff which, yes, is totally unwise to write down that you have done.

Land title systems are really interesting.

You are correct that under the deed system, proof is held by the owner through a link of subsequent deeds. Some countries still use this system. When I bought a house you could see ownership going all the way back to the establishment by the British Crown, then the provincial government, then the township, then the city, then the developer and then 5 different owners. All of that is captured and maintained as records (either by the owner exclusively or a land registry).

Other's have moved to a central registry. Basically the registry owned by the government is the sole "source of truth" about land ownership. If ownership is not registered, then it's not recognized. If there are any errors (say a fraudulent purchase that actually get included in the system), it's covered through title insurance.
Maybe it has smth to do with:

The problem is I feel the same way about your side, and even worse really. You're trying to take away my guns while leaving it for people that can afford security. You're trying to talk to my kids about sensitive sexual issues at crazy young ages. You're trying to make it harder for my kids to get jobs or go to college because they were born a certain color. You're trying to make it harder to lock people away for major property crimes. You're trying to make it easier for undocumented people to come to the US instead of being selective like even Canada is. I could go on and on, but I think the things the left is doing is flat out dangerous to society, while what the right does is maybe mean spirited sometimes but for the best.
The data is due to a lawsuit against Harvard, and I'm not aware of comparable data for other universities.

> In Japan, they would just accept DTMF tones from anything that would generate them. There was all these people using hacked cards that they installed countermeasures against which were hilarious because people using these hacked yakuza cards would keep one foot in the doorway in case the fabled alarm would go off, i knew a guy who did this thinking naaah it would never happen to me. NOPE happens to him, he had to squeeze himself out of that phone booth and run after a red light started flashing and the door slammed shut on his shoe... Literally just playing the DTMF tones into the handset would have gotten past that on every 'grey phone' out there (The ones that advertise ISDN connectivity). Wouldn't be surprised if that still works if they still have those phones anywhere.

How did this work? Did it literally lock you inside and how did you exit?
That's not gonna sit well with red states, bro. They're the ones that made selling directly to customers ILLEGAL... even by an American company.
It would be cool! You'd need FXS ports, though (those are the ones which provide the line/ring voltage). You'd also need to research how the payphone indicated coin insertion (bell/2bell/bong or something else), and how to tell the payphone to either return the coins or drop them into the box (in some cases it's an MF signal, in others it's polarity reversal of the phone line).

How do you know this? Did you see their internal data?
There are lots of anecdotes going around about Tesla's quality. However, with all the TeslaQ it is hard to believe that there is real correlation between anecdotes and data. Here are my anecdotes - I owned 6 Teslas over last several years. Not one of them had any QC issues. I had one service done because I hit tire debris and front break dust shield started making noises. Tesla fixed that for me quickly with no charge. As for the data - during earnings calls they mentioned that they do pay close attention to their customer experience data and they had period of time where service was lagging. But they started addressing this issue and saw improvements. The way they are growing I do believe they need to keep close eye on customer experience, but looks like they understand that themselves and use data to make sure they are on top of this. Unfortunately there's not much reliable independent data to have better understanding of this issue.

Add: The intent of my comment was to ask if parent info is based on specific data or just anecdotes. As an example, I gave my own anecdotes and mentioned that they are not reliable correlation to the data. Somehow the responses I've got are all about anecdotes, mine or others, also some personal judgement of my ability to appreciate cars or judgment of my life circumstances that required me to have these many Teslas. Can we get back to discussing the main point I'm making - do we have data to make any of these judgements?

I think the end-of-life experience may be the single biggest thing we do, noting the depression treatment. I say this, because only some of us get depression but we're all going to die, at some point: this has complete applicability if we can work out the protocols.

Yeah, many people don't even see a reference about Haskell IO being async. That's what the "automatic" part is doing.

Haskell IO is basically as async as Javascript, as in every operation is fully asynchronous, you need to call some foreign function if you want otherwise. Except that you have parallelism and can have concurrency too added if you want.
Ford doesn't do shit to dealerships. When you have a grievance with one, you realize how little control the manufacturer has (or is willing to exercise) over them.

If some dealership gets sanctioned by a manufacturer for being jagoffs, they'll put up a new sign next week and be a Toyota (or whatever) dealership. The manufacturer knows this and won't alienate them for one customer.
