Ethics plays no part in this reality. The term 'ethics' is only ever used to justify the unethical, eg ethics committees find that it is fine to use embryos in science. It is about applying the veneer of morality over the top.

Ethical decisions are down to the individual.

Unfortunately, lots of people think ethics is what the law allows, or what government says, or even what teachers teach. Most individuals don't take the time to realise or uncover and then act upon the ethics they have innately - aka following one's heart/conscience.

Worse still, many paychecks depend upon the unethical, so don't expect any critical introspection or changes soon.

> Even if there was a case where a bidder is non-profit, I can't fathom how they would bid on a project with the intent to be in the red.

Yes, exactly. Budget constraints exist for all organisations.

Profit isn't usually a big part of any budget.
Android is doing well in non-first world countries and Android takes a ridiculously small portion of the global handset profits.
From the fact that there are so many government, university and bank websites that simply doesn't work with Firefox or anything other than non-chromium based. In fact, many explicitly say that the user needs to use Chrome for the best experience. You can of course ignore and say that these don't happen in your reality but you only need to take a look at Firefox forums or issues/bug threads to know that they are very real.

> Apartment living + EV is not a technical problem, it's 100% a political/social one.

It is not 100% political. In a single family home you can (usually) put enough solar panels on the roof to charge an EV. An apartment has only one roof for dozens (or even hundreds) of apartments, so that's not going to work.

And Vivaldi. If they officially announce that they're going to maintain the v2 APIs to save ad blocking extensions, then I'll probably switch to them.

(For Brave, I was always skeptical of them because of how they are tied to crypto stuff.)
Think of everything we’ve discovered even in just the last 50 years, and how impossible it seemed from the perspective of the past.

You can always argue that we know more now, that there are fundamental limits, etc., but there’s always more to learn and revise.

Then use Chrome only when you are looking for memory leaks. FF's devtools are not worse than Chrome, I'm used to Firefox and I find Chrome devtools hard to use. For example, the CPU profiler is much better, IMHO
"And yet they have existed in some sort of bubble outside of my frame of reference."

Hmmm.
Firstly, I apologise for assuming there.

Secondly, I agree that the NHS is described in almost hagiographic terms by some, especially left-leaning Americans.

On the mediocre value for money, I don't doubt at all that the NHS could change to be better.

That said, from my antipodean point of view, it appears to me that the Tories have been running the classic neoliberal play of "Set metrics that the public service will need more funding to meet, underfund them, point to the inability to meet your metrics as a) obvious proof that the government is inefficient and n bloated and b) reason to carve off the easy services for private sector businesses to fulfill at taxpayer expense, aforementioned private sector businesses often having been good donors, or close personal affiliations to members of your Cabinet. Bonus points if retiring MPs become members of their C-suites or board of directors"

So yeah, the NHS definitely could be better, but I don't think the issues are inherent to it.

Incidentally, our Tories have used that play repeatedly, hence why it's so familiar to me.
Physics doesn't care what our model of it is.
While demand for EVs is certainly growing and in some areas a total switch may be already possible, there still is an enormous critical demand for ICEVs in the world. There are areas in the world where people drive long distances by car, but the homes don't have electricity yet. Especially in non-Western countries.

Nobody in their right mind would buy an EV there. It may look differently in 10 or 15 years from now, but this is the reality today and this is one of Toyota's markets. They are the maker of the Land Cruiser and the Prius.

There is a reason, why the Prius is so wildly popular all over the world. It is capable of driving long distances anywhere, but it saves money at the same time, while it almost never breaks down. Toyota is not ignorant at all. They realize that now is the time for gradually transitioning to EV, but not for making a sudden dogmatic switch to EV, while ignoring what people actually need. The logical outcome of this though process is the hybrid car. And then the plug-in hybrid. And then the EV - at some point in the future.

Tell HN: Microsoft Edge is browser with least learning curve from Chrome
Chrome has been abusing there position from quite long. They are moving to Manifest V3, they don't support extensions on mobile and they disabled option to change webview.

Firefox is recommended choice to most people, but for some learning curve can be big(I tried to switch but failed several times). Reason might be performance, look and feel or devtools.

I found MS edge to be best candidate to switch from Chrome. It supports adblocker on mobile, has better privacy features, is as fast as chrome and has same devtools.
What segment? You don't have mapped memory to overrun in the kernel, so that array would have to be in a very special spot to cause a bus error in such a situation. Also, even in user space, overrunning an array is far from guaranteed in trying to address an unmapped page...in fact, it often doesn't, since mapping memory with gaps for each array is prohibitively expensive (though, debugging aides like Electric Fence rely on exactly this mechanism)
I find that a claim like

> Paseto is everything you love about JOSE (JWT, JWE, JWS) without any of the many design deficits that plague the JOSE standards.

Needs to be substantiated. Where's the comparison? There's only a link to a website and presentation talking about the downsides of JOSE, but the only one i see for JWT is poor implementations failing when the algorithm supplied client-side is invalid. That's a trivial bug and hopefully long since fixed. Is that it?

The important part here is the list of scanned endpoints for blocking bad traffic is doing things the hard way.
> and hydrogen is their answer to help managing the renewable grid.

All of the hydrogen right now used for vehicle comes from the oil&gas industry. It costs over an order of magnitude more to extract it from water. The worst part is that even at the current rates at the pump, it's hard to justify using hydrogen over batteries.

If lithium batteries didn't exist, it may have been a good path for the long term future. In reality, it's only gonna be viable for very specific industrial use cases.
A heat pump isn't that expensive and does both.
Very nicely done Michael. So happy for your success. More power to you , lots of <3 from India
You have to draw a line somewhere, I guess. As far as I remember, protections against accidental misuse and foreseeable abuse of a device are required in medical equipment. But malicious circumvention of protections or any kind of active tampering are a whole other category in my opinion.
Every word in this sentence is the opposite of my experience and understanding. RN feels like a half maintained backwater compared to react for web. Lots of out of date docs, awful debugging experience, inconsistencies between ios and android, fidgety and flakey all the time. And it has all felt like that for a while. So I would beg to differ with "maturing" and would definitely call bs on anyone characterizing it as "mature".

About Flutter, I've never personally used it but last I read its marketshare was continuing to grow fast as RN's plateaued. I love TS and the react ecosystem but RN itself is so crappy that I'm considering dart (did I just say that???). I think architecturally Flutter made the right call to just implement their own components on skia to get perfect consistency across platforms and totally control their own destiny. Sadly they also chose a weird shitty language.

> There is essentially zero chance that Linux will still be in development 50 years from now

I doubt this. Linux is going to be around for a while just like COBOL, mainframes, and a bunch of other legacy technology.

Even today there’s not really a clear Linux competitor. It has been dominant for quite a while.
I already faced this in 2016, living in Philadelphia, lucky to have parking at the apartment and two EV chargers. Back then there were no other EVs at the apartment complex to coordinate charging shifts with.

Methinks the number of stations will organically grow with the predicted amount of EVs an apartment will have parking on site. That’s how it started for me in 2015-2016!
Fixing grammar could be annoying for sure (like you have nothing better to do, I worked with non-native speakers for 10+ years now and still find it astounding when some native speaker feels the urge to fix someone's grammar in online forums, which I would never do if the content is comprehensible), but adding paragraphs to unreadable block of text can't be even annoying, that's just common sense and everyone can agree Reddit/HN formatting is mess
What legal justification does PayPal use for keeping people’s money when they shut down their accounts? Even if the funds were obtained in some illegal way, they are still surely not PayPal’s. Banks can’t decide unilaterally to just keep someone’s money.
Vetting all your software, hardware, and firmware dependencies to ensure that they are trustworthy. Today's software is often very complex and comes from such a wide variety of sources that we rely on third-party security experts to do this, rather than trusting a single vendor as was done in the past.

Ensuring that your software will still function in 20 years. Previously you had shrink-wrapped software packages on physical media with explicit releases and versions. Now everything depends on cloud services and APIs which could change or disappear at any moment.
> I don't see why so many people are against Mozilla using donations how they see fit.

Because people donating to Mozilla are expecting that those funds are used for the browser and not a string of experiments that fail miserably. People rightfully feel betrayed and stop donating.

> Mozilla need to diversify

Exactly wrong. Mozilla needs to concentrate on the Browser and should cut off all excess expenses and useless experiments. The goal should be to minimize cost and thus reduce the reliance on Google money which should be replaced by pure donation money.

I'm having the exact same experience, also with Thai funny enough, and the best way to describe it to me is like this: It feels like when I was a small kid learning to read for the first time. You see a bus driving by, and you now recognize a few letters, and then you mentally try to "compress" the letters into a word and suddenly: Woop! This bus is headed for Minburi! There's a little jolt of joy in that moment of recognition.
Curious, why are you learning Thai?
I don't remember specifics, though I can find out; I have it seemed in Kubernetes with hand written manifests. I had to tie Photoprism to a specific node which had had more resources than it's peers; I would have to refer to the manifests to recall which DB I used. All storage was over NFS (meaning the storage speed was limited by my 1Gb network backbone), which probably created some of the resource issues.

Edit: as for my tool, it won't replace Photoprism, its primary goal is to deduplicate your photo library.

I'm sort of more interested in the effect this has mentally on people. Not from a FOMO point of view but from a "what is my place in the world" point of view.

If you're an artist or a musician or a developer or, well anything really, what does it mean to be able to go online and are hundreds, thousands, millions of people who are far better at a thing than you are?

I'm 50 and sufficiently old / mature to be able to cope with this but even so, when I do a search for "linocut" (one of my hobbies) and see 82,000 results (just on Etsy) - and they're all really good and incredibly cheap... this dents something in me.

As I say, I'm realistic enough to know I'm not the world's best artist and I'm not trying to make a living out of it - it's also great, and useful, to see other people's work...but it's also somehow galling as well, in a way that's quite hard to define.

It's a bit like Douglas Adams' infinity - it isn't infinity but it feels sufficiently big to make one teeter a bit and wonder at one's place in the universe...
This is the correct answer. Toyota is so heavily into hydrogen, because they're toeing the government line.

Also, hydrogen is the better choice for Japan because their power grid is even worse than the one in the US.

I did not Sweden was first to do the cobra maneuver with the Saab 35 Draken, fun. It is very impressive how little Sweden with SAAB have been able to develop stage of the art fighter planes. By exemple JAS 39 Gripen was the first 4th genereation fighter jet in the world, and many older fighterplanes set many records too.

I really like Draken, it is a beautiful plan. And I love this picture :D The timing and composition is perfect and I wounder what the person in the canoe thought haha.

So, the question is: are you more afraid of random nobodies online, or are you more afraid of already organized, already powerful people who had similar capability already?
> Engine replacements are complicated. Many specific parts.

If you buy a full replacement engine (as opposed to parts to rebuild an engine), replacement is quick and easy in an ICE. In endurance racing an engine can often be replaced in less than 30 minutes. In non-racing conditions you'd do it a bit slower but it's not hard.
I think what Google has done (accidentally or deliberately) is perfect: drown Mozilla in search-deal grant money to attract executives and manager types to do all sorts of vanity projects that lead to nowhere, so they can maintain their gimped "competitior" browser that lets them non-guilty of antitrust charges.

It's counter-intuitive, but a continuously running money hose sometimes seem to attract these types of people and corrupt an organization. Ironically Google itself internally has this problem, where its limitless advertising revenue is being absorbed to all these shiny projects which people never really care about maintaining and its sole purpose is to advanced people's careers inside the company...
Ask HN: How to learn about cryptography if you don't handle it everyday

To answer the headline:

> Toyoda reiterated that he does not believe all-electric vehicles will be adopted as quickly as policy regulators and competitors think, due to a variety of reasons. He cited lack of infrastructure, pricing and how customers’ choices vary region to region as examples of possible roadblocks.

> “Just like the fully autonomous cars that we are all supposed to be driving by now, EVs are just going to take longer to become mainstream than media would like us to believe,”

He sound like smart man unlike European communist bureaucrats trying to force EVs down the throat at any cost, which could be only explained by being controlled by WEF.

I'd say going all in on EV or whatever is as "smart" as putting all your eggs in one basket, world ain't black and white and you gotta be pretty naive to do it, hard to imagine scenario where diversification is not (the more) rational approach.
Non technical management are putting in their 2 cents.
hmm, yeah that sounds challenging, but spacex does it when landing the first stage :)
The challenge nowadays is navigating the layers upon layers of unnecessary complexity. It's not even possible to choose the best tool for the job anymore because managers have been primed to only accept certain tools and it's impossible to convince them otherwise. The herd mentality is too strong.

Imagine being a firefighter and your boss tells you that you can't use a water hose to put out the fire; instead you must use either a portable fan or a flamethrower. That's what programming feels like these days.
It is not in manufacturers' interest to apply this information toward a longer lasting blade. Replacing them is the business model.
The perfect being the enemy of the good, yet again.
I was going to say the same thing. I feel so lucky to have started programming in the era of 8-bit home computers. Looking back, this was a Zen like experience. Switch the machine on and, literally, within a few seconds you were faced with a blank screen and a blinking cursor. It is as if the machine was saying "Go on then...do something wonderful".

And one's own wonderful was within reach because of the things you point out. Of course context matters here with having nothing to compare too, but every learning point seemed like magic to me.

Out of necessity, learning how the hardware worked and relating that to software was such a big part of the culture. Books and magazines wrote about CPU architecture, address and data busses, video programming etc.

Being into electronics at the time I constructed external address decoders and data line drivers (7400 series) to make lights and relays turn on as well as being able to sample and store an external voltage in memory via homemade R2R ADCs.

Years later, I was writing control and logging software in Topspeed Module-2 running on DOS as part of my postgrad work. I'd arrive, somewhat stressed, in the lab after a fairly lengthy two train commute then relax to the sound of the hard disk as the PC booted up. Then it was me, the machine, a single language and a couple of RS232 serial ports for I/O. Bliss!
> To be clear, this is not just a case of me being old and uncool

Ha.

The author’s journey is a standard realisation of growing up. You think you can keep up with everything popular when “popular” is judged based on the 200 people you know and the occasional others you meet in similar demographic groups.

As you are exposed to more influences it becomes harder to keep up. You think it’s because times have changed. But people have been making this statement for hundreds of years across every mass media in existence. There was too much internet for any person to keep up in 1993 before most of the world was on the internet.

Eventually you realise that there isn’t one definition of popular. There are literally hundreds. Maybe millions. For every billion viewed thing on Website X, where surely everyone “popular” has viewed this thing, you can eliminate duplicate viewings and find out that 99% of the world has never looked once. They’re doing something you never thought had mass appeal on a website or service you didn’t realise was huge. They’ve never heard of Website X and are astounded anything on it has a billion views. You don’t know about each other because even the ways you discover “popular” things are different. Because most people grow up in a relatively narrow niche. People think they’re trying everything the world has to offer but they’re not even close.

And that’s not even counting the fact that people who don’t chase the popular thing probably outnumber those who do.

But don’t feel bad that the concept of a single unifying “popular” doesn’t exist because the reality is better. You don’t need to keep up with anyone else’s definition of popular and you can just pursue what you enjoy and you get so much more out of hobbies if you specialise instead of trying to do everything.
