Towing is one of the main reasons people go for trucks with high torque. This is going to need better communication, around how the tow load and wind resistance affects distance computation.

The good thing about battery estimation models is that they seem to adjust live. It would totally suck to have a battery life model which kept saying "you have 100k to go" when it's down to 20k or less. I know thats a tiny drop of good in a bitter pill of reality, but at least they got told the truth, once the load was applied.

The EV supporting webs are all pretty good about highlighting the gap between the estimated range models used for certification, and 'real life' experience. I think they've realised over-stating it isn't helpful.

I FOIA requested a lot of universities and man do they fight to keep their stuff secret.

Often I’d find the person in charge on linkedin and email them directly (work email obviously). And dig around until I found the particular person.

UIUC put up a particular fight when I FOIA requested information about their post-graduate surveys. They’re definitely manipulating there. I was in the process of filing a lawsuit when covid hit and gave up because I wasn’t sure if I’d need the funds (plus court shutdown at the time).

My understanding of the current science is that many cycles of excess carbs (especially processed carbs) while you are not in a calorie deficit, alongside a sedentary lifestyle, are bad for metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance.

White flour pancakes ALWAYS give me a blood sugar crash, and often cause a mild to moderate hypoglycemic episode; but I can eat whole grain pancakes without too much trouble.

My father was a history professor who specialized in American history. I don't think the author of this post gives sufficient credit to history, historians, and people who teach history. These "shocking" facts, whether they're scandals, little ironies, or just things that contradict our present prejudices, are not secrets. They aren't hidden. Some people will trumpet them more than others, depending on various biases ideological, partisan, national, etc., but nobody is being silenced. The main problem is that it's hard to get people excited about them for more than a few seconds.

One thing I pointed out here recently is that all the "things they didn't you in school" books are populated with exactly the facts they taught you in school. Similarly, all these "shocking" facts here -- will you recognize them if you run across them a year from now? Two years from now? With that in mind, can you be sure that you haven't seen them before? Maybe multiple times? The strongest distortion of history is our limited ability to pay attention and then remember.
This definitely seems like a likely outcome, especially considering how the world has responded to GDPR: ignore it if you're out of the EU or throw resources at the problem to meet a bare minimum requirement (and cross your fingers) if you're in a country where it can actually be enforced.

What's wrong with "go mod vendor" ?

From golangbyexample.com:

"It will create a vendor directory inside your project directory. The vendor directory will have all the direct and indirect dependencies downloaded. You can also check in the vendor directory to your VCS (Version Control System). This becomes useful in the sense that none of the dependency needs to be downloaded at run time as it is already present in the vendor folder checked into VCS."

That's kind of the definition of fractal. You look at 1/100 the area, but at 100 times the magnification, and it looks the same.

The universe isn't infinite, so this wouldn't scale forever, but we probably have a ways to go before we need to worry about that.
Good call out. I respect the effort put into the aesthetics of the prototype, but the display cut out could definitely have been flush-mounted in a way to disguise the cut out with something as simple as household white quarter inch trim.

Slick design comes in time, and the device itself looks quite nice IMO. I just think it reeks of the Juicero "hammering a screw" approach. Monotubs are dead simple and cheap, but do require a bit of research/knowledge/trial and error to get started producing fruiting bodies. Without knowing the cost of Shrooly's replacement boxes, it really comes down to convenience and personal value of having fresh mushrooms on hand. I'd rather have something like this on my bookshelf than a Rubbermaid shoe tote full of dirt and pinheads, though.

If these questions interest you, I’d recommend the book “The End of Everything” by Katie Mack. Ostensibly it’s about the end of the universe but to explain the various possibilities she has to first explain the kind of things you’re talking about.
> For instance, PyPI will take down your software if we determine it to be malicious in some way, which is extending editorial control over what's on PyPI.

Where this breaks down and gets tricky I feel, though, is when you get into examples where the package maintainer makes the newest version essentially useless (but in an otherwise harmless way) in protest of some grievance. I think this is a perfectly legitimate action for a maintainer to take as long as they aren't literally installing malware or opening up security vulnerabilities. Package systems stepping in in these scenarios and "bailing out" all the companies that rely on the package by taking it over are effectively silencing the maintainer. My smell test for this is if the ISP or hosting provider wouldn't yank it, neither should the package system. Hosting providers will take down malware and illegal content, but they aren't going to do more than that, and that's how it should be imo in package systems. I think the benefit of developers' voices not being silenced vastly outweighs the humorous scrambling of a bunch of companies who failed to lock their version numbers for a few short hours. The same scramble happens all the time with real-world breaking changes anyway. If the maintainer wants to effectively yank their project, they should be allowed to do so. Otherwise you never really know if you are getting the maintainer's code, or whatever the package system decides should be the maintainer's code, which breaks the trust contract upon which package systems are built.

This is another reason it's great that a lot of languages, like Crystal for example, have adopted a decentralized model.
of course not - it just remains visible and also tells you that it wasn't altered after that time

They’re either going to have a novel interface to control the vehicle or no way to control the vehicle. I doubt their ability to deliver adequate performance of the latter in the next 10 years. I just don’t see computing as robust enough to be safe for a mass market vehicle.

All files (and data) I have on my Linux machine is either a copy from a cloud (i.e git, photos, contacts) or synced to Dropbox Family (and some are even encrypted). In case of a ransomware, I would just revert to a previous version of that file. I dont have any physical backups but for some stuff I have multiple manual backups on cloud.

As for protection I try to follow general security guidelines: I mind all the packages I install (including dependencies like npm), I have ABP and nextdns on my browsers, I use Arch and update it every morning, and I disable any sw or hw feature (bluetooth, sdcards, usb boot) that I do not use, to give some examples. I have a feeling reducing attack surface should be enough for me.
Traffic stops can get pretty violent. When they do, it's almost always one of three reasons: possession of drugs or an illegal firearm, driving under the influence, or a standing bench warrant for their arrest.

I can vaguely imagine a world where illegal firearms and drugs don't exist, just firearms and drugs. But warrants and DUI are going to remain, and you're proposing sending unarmed people to deal with that.

Someone will run that experiment, the unarmed social worker trying to issue the citation will be badly hurt or murdered, and we'll go back to cops doing that job. Hopefully none of this will be in a county where I live, I don't want to be around vehicles operated with impunity by people who know they can just accelerate away.
We can do things to measure the curvature of the universe, everything so far points to complete flatness so if there is curvature and the universe is closed, the radius is much much larger than the observable universe as to make it appear “locally” flat, where “local” is something like 100 billion light years.
Goodhart's Law

The key problem of using a measure as a metric is sometimes referred to as Goodhart’s law. The law is based on a 1975 paper on economic regulation, and is typically paraphrased as “When a measure becomes a metric, it ceases to be a good measure.” When managing a system, this problem is critical, but is deeper than it at first seems, as I’ll argue.

‘Assa’ is about the end of the Soviet era and the coming of Perestroika youth. I haven't seen ‘Chernobyl’ yet, but I doubt I'm gonna see many Perestroika youth among the people at the plant.

There were a lot of movies in the late 80s and the early-mid 90s about the life of lower-class people in the crumbling USSR/Russia of that time: from simple depressing realistic depictions to surrealistic transgressions, simply because all these kinds of expression became permissible. ‘Assa’ is essentially a fantasy about the zeitgeist. USSR functionaries weren't forgotten of course, but their portrayals flipped upside down—there isn't a single point of view on the Soviet time, and ‘Chernobyl’ likely just has a different perspective.

I'm gonna bet, though, that execs in ‘Chernobyl’ are close-ish to Krymov of ‘Assa’, at least as I will see them.

By the way, funny thing: in a podcast by Russian cinema critics on Western films about Russia, someone remarked that no matter how much effort the crew puts into researching details, something always gives away the fictional and foreign nature of the work. In ‘Chernobyl’, one such moment is when a woman goes against a committee of bureaucrats and tells them how wrong they are. (Again, IDK what actually happens in the scene.)

The elephant in the room is maintaining stereotypes about the violence of the mentally ill that don't have any reference to statistics. Usually followed with a story about being yelled at by a homeless person once.
I knew to look for that because I'm a nerd, as are most people here. I'm talking about the impression this makes on those who are not predisposed to be interested. Those people vote too, and when NASA delivers the sort of experience stereotypically associated with the DMV it influences their outlook.
Why does the EU punishes France’s nuclear electricity?
This afternoon, in Kansas, the electric company paid us to run our farm off a diesel generator for 3 hours to reduce the load on the grid.

Even though fuel price is high, and a 80kw generator isn't nearly as efficient as the utility company's generators, they still pay enough to make it easily worth it. Including the cost of the generator, which we need anyways.

The electric company could pay enough to more than cover the battery cycle expense.

Plus, if Li-ion are at all similar in this to lead-acid, a deep cycle is many many times more destructive than a shallow cycle.
When your model of how things work predicts one thing, and then the exact opposite thing happens, it's a good time to question what might be wrong with your model. (Hint: "printing money" doesn't automatically make money worth less.)

The best way to do this without being "bothered" is very simple: be in the same place as the same set of people, repeatedly. This is why so many friendships and relationships arise at work or at school.

Take some classes or do some sort of training, and choose the context based on the kinds of interests that the people you like best tend to have.
>I want to work somewhere again that sees engineering software as a craft again.

I see this as an economic question. Few software products are going to have any real longevity, and few companies are willing to pay for high quality engineering. This isn't to say that the people working on the products aren't good engineers or that the products are garbage, so much as to say "good enough" is good enough for most products and companies.
Here's the response:

Universities are mostly unimportant in terms of what they offer: class sizes, education, curriculum, etc... All mostly bs that doesn't matter.

The real role of universities is to gather together smart people as they develop. This requires mostly a sort of self-selection of applicants, who need to agree independently to go to the same university. Hence rankings, prestige, and all that nonsense.

My point was that a large 500 person lecture on "Intro to ElectroMagnetism" will be about the same as a small 20 person lecture in terms of material. The variability will come from

- Honors sessions
- Extra seminars
- Quality of Material
- Quality of student support groups

All of these things get better as the class size grows. In my last class at Georgia Tech, there were 900 students studying a niche topic from a particular professor. Due to class size, there were ~12 TAs and an extremely active slack discussion group where people could get support.

A smaller class just means the professor has limited resources to assist students.
It would be really nice if they were to create a continual satellite telescope program where they launched an updated version every five years or so.

There's nothing inherently white, anglo-saxon or protestant about the oligarchy that these institutions preserve; they will very happily pass on to a new generation of westernised, college-educated liberals of all races and genders but no more variation in thought than the one they replaced. The cultural focus on such ephemera gives them a very useful fig leaf for excluding the demographic that it actually matters to exclude: the working class.
Not OP. That said, I would've believed you a few years ago, when my body and gut flora were out of whack. Totally impossible. Just two eggs? Never!

Fast forward to today and while I would agree that just two eggs would be boring, add in two slices of bacon to cook the eggs in as well as some nice cheese, scramble it all and there's the lunch I'll have after not having had any breakfast at all and having had that, I probably won't be hungry again until way past previous dinner times.

This is after getting my gut back in order, away from craving sugary meal after sugary meal after carb/sugary meal to not having more than 20g of carbs per day (i.e. what they call "Keto diet"). I totally eat carbs again nowadays but usually eat no breakfast and eat way less carbs than I used to. One thing I noticed is that having a "low fat meal" for breakfast (e.g. white toast w/ just jam) means I am usually hungry again before lunch already. What helped on Keto was basically just eating whenever I was "hungry" but just not eating anything with carbs. I used cheese for it. Whenever I "got an appetite", eat some slices of cheese. No counting of calories. Feel "hungry"? Eat cheese! Lost lots of weight after a short period of time on that. The cravings just went away. It's amazing how little calories you actually get from all that fat and protein but it fills you right up. Of course this only works well if you have some fat to burn (my totally non-scientific reasoning is that your body just figures out that it doesn't have to make you find food and can just use the stores. Which means you better have those fat stores on you and please do make sure to eat enough veggies and nuts for your vitamins and minerals - you get the 20g of carbs just incidentally from the veggies, so definitely nothing with flour will go in you) I don't do Keto any longer and I can now maintain weight instead of loosing it :)

Reality has a lot more detail than mental planning does.
Depends on their velocity relative to Earth. The unintuitive bit of relativity is that you observe the other as experiencing time more slowly - this is the origin of the twin paradox (i.e., shouldn't each twin observe the other as having aged less?) whose resolution comes from the fact that the second twin is in a non-inertial reference frame once he changes directions to return to Earth.
Incredible photo from a scientific perspective. The team must be ecstatic that everything went to plan so far.

Can they remove the diffraction artifacts by rotating and re-acquiring, then doing some kind of diff/averaging? They are very apparent and distracting.

> hook up some cell phone batteries to it for night time

You're going to need a lot of batteries. A lot of batteries. The world uses 60 TWh of electricity per day. So 12 hours of storage would be 30 TWh, or 30,000 GWh. By comparison global annual lithium ion battery production is about 300 GWh.
Relativity means time slows down for an observer, not for the observed. You would see the universe around you rapidly speed up and eventually die.

I am of a similar vintage. Technically, I was in hardware/firmware in '89, but I was working in a startup then and the lines were pretty blurry - I wrote a good bit of assembly & C code. One thing that I notice was that even though there wasn't really any sort of formal push to get women into tech back then, the software group was pretty close to 50% women where I was working in the late 80s - in fact, for a while there were more women than men in the group.

Similar at the next couple of companies I worked in software into the mid-to-late 90s - maybe not 50% women, but pretty close.

But then in the aughts that gender distribution tended to skew more towards males. Not sure why that was. And now I'm working in a startup where it's about 40% women, so maybe we're getting back to where we were in the late 80s.
