I can buy 10 used but running ICE cars for the price of an EV and could probably buy a couple of years worth of gas for the money that I saved, even at current prices.

We need some actually cheap EVs, so probably models that are not so full of electronics like the current ones. Just some basic models without self-driving hocus pocus and futuristic bling.

I also would never buy a car that keeps up a constant network connection to its manufacturer, so that's a requirement I'd be looking for as well.

The current generation places more and more importance on the preservation of the planet, the human beings, the animals and the nature that inhabit it. But in a society that is always going faster, it is sometimes long and complicated to get information, to make the most eco-responsible choices possible. This is how TiCATi.com gets involved on a daily basis to support travelers in choosing hotels with eco-responsible processes. “We are a green, ecological platform committed to the environment. Doing extensive research can be tedious, but we facilitate the eco-responsible approach, thanks to an easy and fast search and reservation,” explains Régis Kahn, co-founder of TiCATi.com. In all, the ecological hotel reservation platform lists more than 100,000 establishments, all over the globe.
First, like many of other commenters said, as an "inspiring web developer":

focus on your development process not your operating environment.

Second, if you have internet connection just use free tiers of cloud providers' virtual private servers or even better use public access systems like freeshell, blinkenshell or sdf (this one not exactly linux but can open the door of a different experiences).

Third, dual boot with MS Windows or virtualization not that hard, just try.

Fourth, this is kind of counter argument to my first point but probably best in my opinion; come on baby, don't fear the reaper... Joking aside, don't fear and just break things and you will be alright; once upon a time, we were all there poor and without constant and fast connections, free services, online communities, etc. and we survived.

M (MoveTo) and Q (Quadratic Bézier Curve) are part of the svg spec. They’re drawing commands.

I’d agree that pn seems a little obtuse, but I guess I can see what it’s doing.

Having worked with svg a lot (we build something sort of in the cad space) I can definitely see the desire for something less terse when you’re defining svgs. We end up generating svg fragments using react, for the most part, which works fairly well.
I see value in this article, but it seems to think about code as working in isolation. Snippets. You can see everything.

Many times you’re working with libraries or interacting with existing code, where not everything is so clear, the “specification” is fuzzy at most, and how the outcome state is achieved is far from obvious. So, code _can_ happen to you and you then need to dig the why.
> That's not a FOSS license to begin with.

Your understanding is deficient. Some of the most popular free licenses like GPL and BSD don't restrict use. Users don't have to enter into the licensing agreement at all, only those who redistribute.

By using the software, you implicitly agree to the liability disclaimers, and that's about it.

All of the conditions in the license have to do with redistributing.

Licenses that restrict use in any way (e.g. "free for non-commercial use") are not free licenses.

> The company can't go on your disk and edit the license after you obtained the software and the license.

That's just a practical matter. If a license is revoked, the software will continue to be redistributed or used by people who don't even know about it. That doesn't mean it's legal.

The same thing could happen to software that was improperly licensed to begin with. E.g. a rogue employee took some code without company authorization and put it out with a free license. They can't go into people's disks and erase the bits, but the software is not legally free.

If you write a program and freely license it, such that Debian or Fedora pick it up, and then you write them a letter saying that the program isn't actually freely licensed, that it was a mistake, they will drop the thing like a hot potato.

The GNU project requires signed copyright assignments from contributors who make more than a trivial change. That protects (or hopefully protects) the projects from backpedaling problems.

I know this is really sloppy of me but I'd argue my Gmail is as important if not more important than my bank account. If you have access to my bank, you have access to one bank account of mine but if you have control of my Google account, you now have access to all my bank accounts.

I agree though. I opted into two step authentication for a reason. If I give you both my password and two step code, add this entry to an append only table and move on.

I guess Facebook and Twitter will have this problem where people will take over someone's account and lock them out. Without going into too many details, I saw this happen to someone close to me. It is wild that there are scammers who do this for a living.
I'll try my best but it has been a few years since quantum for me.

Basically, over time a quantum system can be transformed by applying an operator to the original state to yield the new state. These operators can be represented as a "transformation" between one quantum space to another (the one at the future time).

Because these transformations preserve probability (which is like a norm of the system), they must have a property known as being unitary.

Unitary matrices are invertible, so this is what they mean by "can be undone."
That's the reputation, but it's far from true at the moment. For example, there are numerous games from the 2000s that don't work anymore (I mean crash at startup or soon after, not some soft "not working like before") in any compatibility mode on modern Windows. I'm more familiar with games, but I'm sure the same is true of various other kinds of software (though graphics drivers may well be an important part of the problem, so games may well be over-represented).
It is so tragically funny whatching everyone re-inventing mainframe language environments, JVM application servers and the CLR.

Sounds like me 10 years ago, and I wish I took this advice.

If you love technical work, QUIT being an exec, a VP, a manager... do the work.

You WILL have a crazy time getting back into tech work, after 10 years, even if you were hands on the whole time.

Management / CTO and everything in between is best served by people who are technical, and are ready/aware/willing to move into a deeply political and financial driven domain.

I hated it, but it took me a years to really let that sink in and feel it hurting me.

If you can short circuit that wasted time. Do.
Azure is famous for two things - being extremely slow (including hitting timeouts on connected software), and since a year or so ago for having trivial yet highly critical security vulnerabilities that escape the tenant barrier.

Regarding the speed, urban legend has it Azure is basically a giant mess of Powershell duct tape.

Also it's not great redundancy-wise, most regions are not composed of multiple Availability Zones, and their control plane had a reliance on a single DC(which, like their security failures, shows that redundancy and security simply aren't priorities there).

That's an odd article.

"Nedelya" doesn't refer to the first day of the week, at least not now. It means is "week". I can see how it may have meant "do-nothing" and also refer to the rest day, but it doesn't place it at the front of the week.

Monday (ponedelnik) splits into "po" and "nedelya". "Po" is a repetition indicator, not "after", so it's more of something that happens every week.

As I've said - Tuesday is "2nd day", Thursday is "4rd day" and Friday is "5th" (pyatnitca - pyat - five). So 3 days out of 7 point at the start of the week being Monday. These names date to the ancient times, not something Soviets invented.

Wednesday ("sreda") does mean "middle day", but it refers to the middle of the work week, excluding Saturday and Sunday, which are named after Christian events and (likely) extended the original 5-day week.

So if you are to argue that a week that has 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th days literally spelled out starts on its 7th day, the only explanation would be that Russians used 0-based indexing for the week days. Which is alright with me even if somewhat far-fetched.

PS. Also, the calendar reform was not a move against the religion, but because Russia Empire was literally 13 days behind the rest of the world, which was not very convenient.
You could put a Pi Zero with WiFi in your shoe and do the calculations somewhere else.

Project Cloak by Dagger
For EV drivers mostly relying on public, "fast" charging, their energy costs are getting extremely close to, and can exceed, the fuel costs of ICE drivers.

The main way for the energy costs to be cheaper for EV drivers relies on charging at home or at work where it may be subsidized/free.

Using Anecdata from the United States

The energy or fuel cost of driving an EV versus an ICE car varies primarily based on the following factors:
- Where and When the EV is being charged (e.g. at Home versus at a Public Charging Station)
- Cost of Electricity in the Region
- Cost of Gasoline in the Region

Let's use the state of California for an example and calculate the general fuel/energy cost per mile driven.

Where and When:
Some residential power customers are on time-of-use billing plans which typically charge premium rates during peak hours (daytime-to-early evening, and substantially cheaper rates during off-peak hours. Pricing can also go up by usage tiers. Some EV drivers are able to charge exclusively at home, and/or have subsidized charging at work. It's almost always more economical for the EV driver to charge at home/work, however home/office chargers will typically be limited to not-"fast" charging speeds (L1 or L2 charging).

The average residential electricity rate in California is ~$0.30/kWh.

Many Public EV charging stations offer "fast" (L3) charging speeds and are convenient or necessary to use for some EV drivers. Many California public EV charging stations also now have variable pricing based on time of day and their location. The rates can vary from ~$0.30-$0.50+/kWh at EVgo stations or Tesla Superchargers, as examples.

Typical EV efficiencies I've seen are around 3.5-4.0 miles driven per kWh consumed. Assuming the upper end of 4.0 mi/kWh, the energy cost per mile driven is around $0.08/mi at the low end, and $0.13+/mi at the upper end with the above energy prices.

If we assume an ICE or hybrid vehicle with average fuel economy of 35mi/gallon, and gasoline costs typically range from $4.50-$5.50/gallon, the fuel cost per mile driven is around $0.13/mi at the low end and $0.16+/mi at the higher end.

For fun, if we took a typical Toyota Prius from the last 10+ years, with average fuel economy of 50mi/gallon, the fuel cost per mile driven is around $0.09/mi at the low end and $0.11+/mi at the higher end.

The prices for Public EV charging fluctuate, as do the prices for gasoline.

Generally, if someone is driving an EV and primarily relying on public "fast" charging, their energy cost per mile driven is really not that different from the ICE car examples, and higher than the average Prius driver.

(I have an EV and ICE vehicles)
I just prefer using whatever is already present instead of forcing another layer.
You observe the same in French. The quality of the language of people interviewed in the 40s is almost flawlessly superior to today's french literature.

> 0.06€/KwH

Is that in the UK? I think in Germany the cost for providers is already above 0.20€/KwH at the moment and the prices at home are typically higher. Mine is about 0.40€/KwH at the moment.
Why would you assume that? I know someone who has an EV but lives at a home without a driveway, public charging is the only way for him to actually you know, use that car. As EVs become more and more popular, that's how most people will charge their cars, it's not like everyone has a house with a driveway.
Thanks for confirming what I was asserting a couple of days ago.
"Inside a European city" is quite a broad concept. Some people will indeed have parking next to where they live.

Otherwise the next best option is to charge the car at the place they work if they commute by car and their employer offers that.

Other options are to include charging into your mental overhead and use options whenever you are out shopping (larger supermarkets with parking often have charging options), training (parking next to football fields might have charging), use public charging spots but that can be time consuming when your next one is further away.

Source: We own an electric car and charge at home but we recently considered moving to a place without home charging and had to figure out how we would deal with that.
Daniel Naroditsky[1] said at the St Louis chess club specifically it would be pretty easy to cheat OTB no matter what searches they do. He said there is a balcony which the players have access to when they walk away from the board which has a clear view of the car park and you could have an assistant signal from there at crucial moments. He also cited a case of a player who was definitely cheating OTB[2] and was never caught and where no mechanism was ever found.

It really seems to me that everyone is overthinking this. Hans has admitted to cheating and just says he didn't cheat here. The idea we should give him the benefit of the doubt seems really odd. It doesn't really matter to me whether he cheated in this specific tournament - he shouldn't have a place in the chess world.

L2 is also known as Euclidean space. It says the length of a vector is the square root of the sum of the squares of its components. There are other ways of defining vector length (or distance). E.g., in L1 is the sum of the absolute value of the components. The way distance is measured changes the properties of a space. E.g., in L2, Pythagoras is trivially true, but in L1 the hypotenuse would be as long as the sum of both other sides. That has far reaching consequences. E.g., in L1, you can't take a shortcut.

Same in Germany. Prices can be as high as 75-80 cent/kWh at certain public fast chargers. That would be 16€/100km or more, while a diesel with consumption of 6.5l/100km costs about 13€/100km at current diesel prices.

What do you mean they "need" to support fast charging? Majority of public charging points in this country are just type 2, 3.6/7.2kW chargers, CCS rapid chargers are outnumbered probably 1:10. And a simple 7.2kW point costs about £1500-2000 to install(commercially, at home it's cheaper) - hardly an extravagant expense.
> They are almost without exception well-written and concise, and the intuition you gain for particular topics as you browse through the man pages is well worth the effort. In contrast, many developers shoot straight to googling the answer for the problem at hand.

Maybe worth the effort if you want to learn about a program in detail, but in practice I often give up reading the manual and use google instead because I just want to know/remind myself the most common use cases. To be fair, there are some man pages that have a great USAGE or EXAMPLES section which meet this purpose.

You cannot give one figure here. The only comparable metric is cost per km or equivalent consumption (which is basically the same thing in different units), which is function on 4 variables: ICE/BEV consumption and electricity/fuel price.

Fuel cost equivalent BEV consumption (expressed in fuel per distance, e.g. l/100km) is equal to [C_e * P_e] / P_f = C_e * [P_e / P_f]; where C_e = BEV electricity consumption; P_e = Price of electricity; P_f = Price of fuel.

With C_e = 20 kWh/100km; you need [P_e / P_f] ~= 0,35 to break even. With fuel prices in the [1.7 -- 1.9] range you need electricity prices in [0.59 -- 0.67] range.

Sibling comments list UK prices to be P_e = 0.65; P_f = 1.9; yielding equivalent consumption is 6.8 l/100km. (34.5 mpg according to google)

In my country prices are roughly P_e = 0.59; P_f = [1.65 -- 1.75] giving equivalent consumption of roughly [7.15 -- 6.75].

BEV consumption is a bitch for comparison. Your trip computer displays battery-to-controller consumption, which is what you pay at public charger, but when charging at home you pay for grid consumption which includes charging losses.

Do you think something like leftPad needed updates every month to perform its function as expected and remove bugs?

Node libraries are a bit odd in that respect because package JSON files have an "engines" property that informs users about the minimum and maximum Node version the library works with. The author of leftpad could check its compatibility with each new version of Node that's released, and update the engines value version accordingly. That would be quite helpful because abandoned libraries that aren't known to be working with newer Node versions don't get updated, and users can user that information to look for something else.

What that means is that any Node library that isn't being updated as often as Node itself is probably not actively maintained, or the author isn't making full use of Node's feature set.
