Nice little tool.

I'm in an Australian rural farming district and a neighbour of mine used something similar when his 4x4 landcruiser was T-boned into a dam back when he was 90 or so (he's pushing 97 ATM).

If you or your mum haven't done this already .. get her a few old seat belts and passenger windows from a wreckers to practice on.

The theory is good but nothing beats a bit of muscle memory practice.

assume the data format changes, it would change in the called api as well. as long as the fat event sends data that it's in the same format that the api would return, you'd have the same level of coupling.

I think fat vs thin is more about how much other services the event have to travel, because thin event would multiply reads by a fair factor, with the tradeoff being the performance hit for the queue system to store and ship large events

This depends on so many variable that I don't believe there's one perfect commmit. E.g. it depends in the lifecycle stage of the project. Is it just you figuring something out, or are hundreds of thousands of people depending on your work with their livelihoods? The first probably deserves the kinds of restraint that Op wants to see. Whereas you would terribly stifle you creative flow if you were to write docs for your explorative work in the unknown.
Wiki Inventor Sticks a Fork in His Baby (2012)
I haven't played around much with ffmpeg-python, I used to use fluent-ffmpeg for a bit. They're an improvement over writing raw command strings, but they lack static analysis features to verify the correctness of your command at compile time. There's only so much you can do with the constraints of general programming languages.

I'm going to add the ability to export graphs as ffmpeg-python/fluent-ffmpeg code, and to import a graph from ffmpeg-python/fluent-ffmpeg code as well.
I kind of understand him, WireGuard is connected to his Name, if a implementation is not matching his taste of quality (i especially used taste here) and something happens it backfires.

It's a bit the same as with pulse-audio in the beginning, where it backfired to poettering even if the code was not finished and the distributions, especially ubuntu integrated it pretty bad, told no one that it was alpha...and everyone was like:

What bad thing my sound worked with alsa before...i hate pulse-audio, poettering destroyed the "year of linux-desktop", now i hate him too ;)

Pondering Computation In The Real World
this site is so beautiful. Very old school and has so much information. Just a pleasure to browse it.
The Type I (AU/NZ) plug is different to the Type I (China) plug. For one thing, the Chinese one is upside down (or maybe the AU one is?) but the biggest difference is the AU standard requires the active and neutral conductors to have insulation over half of the conductor (presumably to prevent a kid with a butter knife or paper-clip touching the hot conductor on a half-inserted plug). The Chinese one has no such protection (also, generally seem to have holes on the pins). So while they may be inter-operable, they're not necessarily legal or safe (for example, the Argentinian Type I apparently swaps active and neutral). In the same way that a Euro (Type E) plug can fit in a UK (Type G) socket if you can push Earth door open (useful not just for travelling Europe, but also Asia, where Indonesia uses E, but Malaysia uses G. But you really shouldn't do that).

I'm curious why American Samoa uses Type I (among 3 others) but on 60Hz/110V...

Also, some of the voltages are wrong; AU is listed as 230V, but the situation varies between states, and between nominal and actual.

In short; Wikipedia has more detail and accuracy.
The price increases have been because of supply and demand mismatches and speculation that happened because of Covid as production stabilises so will the prices. This is temporary aberration which should avg out over a decade.

This. It's a very different situations from touch screens being cheaper than physical controls, since in this case the latch is already necessary.

In general, there are far more disclosure and public record laws around stock ownership than around cash-like assets. (And the folks assembling "X Richest People" lists still have to do quite a bit of digging & guessing.)

Also - "liquid cash" is a vague term. Depending on the situation, accountants put a wide variety of not-literally-cash assets into the "cash & liquid assets" category. Even if you could get all the data - who was where on a "X Liquid Cash Richest" list would be extremely sensitive to both (1) the exact date of your list and to (2) the exact definition used in the accounting.
I can imagine what Arm is thinking: "we want higher margin customers".

You think that "competitive advantage" helped them any? It certainly didn't. They really want the PC and datacenter space. Apple has proven that alternative architectures aren't dead there, and Arm wants it.

Me personally? I hope this works. The ARM ecosystem as it stands today is horribly broken and promotes e-waste to an extreme degree. I am also under no delusions that RISC-V would be better at this.

It's how these batteries work. We have decades of experience with Lithium-Ion batteries now.
To add,

It's become lifestyle sales, of you buy this, you'll be this. They use that technique just about everywhere now. Used to be just cars and fashion. Like someone else said, emotional manipulation, narcissistic [my add].

Most people don't think with logic, but with emotions, so they're easy targets. Which makes me sad, because frankly no one deserves to get scammed and lied to.

I'm the type of person to appreciate direct and frank discussion. Many don't like this, especially people having power ambitions.
I didn't mean to imply that. I think you can keep the shares.

But there are limits to how many non-insider (e.g. former employees), non-accredited investors a company can have before it is required to go public. For this reason a lot of companies do try to make it mandatory and/or offer sweet deals to buy the shares back upon leaving the company.

30%-50% loses for a well-used 15-year-old lithium battery seems reasonable. Depending on the charge/discharge cycles and depth of them, it can last a lot more or a lot less, see tables and graphs e.g. here:

When you invest in a company like Tesla, you're investing your money and your trust that ultimately there will be a return.

Would you be angry if he gave everyone a 2 week vacation as recognition for doing something good? Part of what motivates engineers is recognition, and being asked to work on some project outside the company for a few weeks is recognizing that your input as an engineer is that valued.
You don't need to own a plane so you can fly a couple of times a year. You don't need to own dinosaur juice fueled car so you can drive an uncomfortably long distance in one leg a couple of times a year.

A completely reasonable option is to own an EV that covers the vast majority of your needs and rent the one or two times a year you require more.
Yes exactly this.

I have a problem with the fact that people see an 'expert' then want there opinion about everything or in the social media age, they give an opinion on everything, things way out of there expertise and often just makes you think they are dumb, but it seems a lot of people just want to follow someone, so they but these people on a pedestal and think that there views on things they know nothing about are somehow important, just because they had an interesting idea in a different field, a field they have been highly involved in for many years, rather than something they just randomly came up with on the spot.
VR will almost certainly catch on with gaming. If you've been on a VR roller coaster or walked a VR plank, it's clear that your mind can be tricked visually with goggles in a way that a screen will never be able to do.

Meta's reputation is negative and I think most people want to see it fail. Zuckerberg (and Thiel) is just too evil. So I think Meta will have an uphill battle.

A lot of the products that Apple puts out were developed by Microsoft research or even Xerox, but they were ahead of their time. Meta is likely experiencing the pain of being the first to devote resources to an unproven market that will likely be popularized by someone who figures out how to do it better, cheaper, or for a particular niche first.

One compounding VR problem is that of peripherals. One can imagine driving a car, walking "in place", or even piloting a jet fighter... the peripherals and peripheral feedback are probably as important as the goggles themselves to those experiences.

If computer history is any indication, then the first VR company to develop a killer app will win the market. I personally expect apple to release VR next year, and they will probably eat Meta's lunch because apple specializes in luxury products and VR is very much a luxury product right now. One important caveat is that I don't think Apple will launch unless they have a killer app.
they should immediately put stop into this blame game and really address the underlying issues: there is no money coming at the door and the lights wont be kept on if it stays that way.

And so we make 5 seater EVs with 350 mile range. Even the Chevy bolt has a 260 mile range. Due to federal safety standards, I doubt we'll see mass market cars with 50 mile range for years and years, despite the lower battery requirements leading to a much smaller and lighter vehicle. A two seater a la the smart car as the family's second car for the day-to-day trips.

> I don't think there's any society in history that has not allowed more freedom in speech then in action.

Speech is action. Therefore axiomatically every society has always allowed more freedom in action than in speech because speech in being action is a subset of actions.
You may be thinking about the difference between taking about a thing and doing the thing mentioned, and there there are obviously any cases where speaking about it is allowed but doing it isn’t, but that doesn’t mean you are more free in speech than in action, imagine how foolish that ends up sounding in Comparison between freedom of ownership and speech. “I am free to say that I own my butler but I am not free to actually own him, this shows I am more free in speech than i am in ownership!”

> Kindergarten kids are taught that "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me".

Is a lie repeatedly told to children yes. And kids are taught to be nice otherwise the magical chimney man won’t give them gifts. The saying is obviously wrong to anyone who’s no longer a kid. Word can cause very real long term psychological trauma. The reason parents tell their kids this saying to get them to ignore the very real pains they feel when bullied ignored or neglected.
That’s just bad parenting, and doesn’t really have any relevance in a discussion about freedom of speech.
> ... COOP is very strict for us

You're not the only one :/. We suspect that the COOP/COEP requirement for OPFS will be outright untenable for many folks, in particular those using hosting which does not offer them the option of modifying outbound headers (in fact, we had to extend sqlite.org's http server, althttpd, to add that capability for this purpose!). We've brought this pain point to the OPFS folks' attention but there is currently simply no way around it.
well you sold him to this and you're the first one considering the idea of backing out just because things didnt go as planned. maybe he's all-in on this already thats why he said those things too. there might be other ways around this, there moght be still time left to correctly operate in this scenario.
> b) You're asking for occasional "eventual consistency" trouble when A's state lags or has moved on ahead of the event

To be noted that this is the default if B is recovering after an outage.

Personally, I consider events to be insane. "We create an immutable database so that the state of the system is always recoverable." Okay, cool, very functional programming of you. "But then to actually work with the event from the immutable database, you have to query a stateful service." ??? What? And even fat events only go so far to get you out of that. So with a stream of n events, you don't have n states that the application can be in, but n times the product of all possible states of every other service that you query. How does this help?!
Their contract is with Twitter, a years-old company, so that new owner can name an old reason and say that's justifiable. Management hasn't done well in the past years, so such an argument sounds feasible, even if I don't know what their contract calls justifiable.
Now combine this with the 21st century "victim industrial complex" and we have a recipe for disaster.

Actually, I do wonder. Are these independant variables, or is the search for victimhood driving the "mental illness" trend?
Yes. Please, people, stop believing their lies. Use your minds too. Don't just react.
The previous gen Mazdas would disable the touch screen when the car was moving.

The latest models go one further - the screen is not touch capable at all. It’s honestly great.
Well that's what the tech can do right now. So while we wait for advances replacing and recycling just the battery is our best bet. At least that keeps the rest of the car (and thus its carbon print) in circulation.

A bit like I've kept my iphone for ~5 years now but did a battery refresh halfway through. Its the best option within constraint given

There’s very little here to make any kind of judgement from.

Perhaps they were being paid for some private work outside of their employment. Maybe there’s some kind of arrangement in place to cover the costs of their time. From the outside we simply don’t know.
Pretty much, and worse
understandable if industry is defense or deep tech, but damn if external funding is their only option to move forward, theyre really fucked.
"we'll never run out of lithium" is the new "640k ought to be enough for anybody".

As we make lithium battery capacity more affordable, it gets applied more broadly, and the rate of use goes up. There is a very finite amount of any resource here on earth, and while we can get things more and more efficient, there will be a moment where we can no longer extract lithium (or other materials) required for battery production. Treating these as an endless resource is the same error we made with fossil fuels, just hopefully without as much climate change as a direct result...
I’m not sure I buy the conclusion. The point in the original story (at least the version I’ve read) was that Mel’s main job was to write code that could make the computer appear as fast as possible to potential customers. Of course one hack isn’t going to noticeably improve performance, but a collection of hacks can significantly improve performance.

A menu that is limited to A4 size is hard to truly fuck up.
Why not learn C the proper way? modern C 11 has really good features.
So if you lose your phone, forget your phone, if you don't have any battery, or if you have any internet issue, you can't order.

You cannot have the whole menu in front of you, you have to scroll and change sections. If it's cold, you can't order without talking your gloves off, if it's sunny, you better have a very bright phone or the menu will be unreadable.

As everything in China, you cannot pay without being electronically tracked, and you can't give a tip without going through a system that will likely take a cut. I will refrain to reach the Godwin point here since I assume it's been debated ad nausaum.

And of course, if something is not on the menu, you can't order it.

As usually with systems that are 100% digital, it gives you zero margin of maneuver outside of the happy path.
