Yes, I saw the video, but obviously the fire truck never should have been on a live runway. Even if there weren't a catastrophic collision, these kinds of incursions of vehicles onto a live runway would be considered a major issue and result in serious safety reviews, etc. to determine what went wrong - again, even if there were no collision whatsoever.
> I'd rather panic on NaN comparisons than complicate the fundamental comparison traits.

The fundamental comparisons are complicated period. Pretending they’re not and hoping you don’t hit the branches that crash is a terrible idea for writing reliable software.

For everything where the comparisons aren’t complicated (like integers), Rust is easy. For things where the comparisons are complicated, Rust makes you acknowledge this reality and deal with it. This is correct behavior.

Considering we have zero knowledge about dark matter and energy, but know it exists, we cannot really know what will happen in the future.

Maybe if the universe expands to certain point, dark energy will put a candy can in everyone's hand and every one of us will turn into Santa Claus. Who knows? We don't know the nature of dark energy and matter. No predictions are possible.
Nix has configurable support for build sandboxing. On Linux, that sandboxing is enabled by default, but builds and installs and everything work fine without it.

Installing and using Nix packages doesn't generally involve any sandboxing or containerization features. But on Linux, there are some exceptions. A few proprietary packages use something called an FHSUserEnv, which leverages user namespaces to simulate an FHS-compatible environment. Additionally, Nix (through one of the new, experimental commands as well as an older third-party tool that inspired it) can also bundle any Nix package into a containerized package which can be run without Nix. I think those bundles, if you choose to create them, also use some container-y Linux features.

Anyway devenv.sh isn't built on anything container-y in Nix.

If fast hot water is all that's holding you back, and hot water on standby is an acceptable alternative to freshly boiled, I can highly recommend Zojirushi's line of products. Mine [1] keeps water at my desired temperature in a vacuum insulated canister that uses barely any continuous power. Any time I want coffee/tea/etc., hot water is instantly available. Recovery time after a refill is under 10 minutes on a USA-standard 15A wall socket.

Zojirushi has been in business since 1918 and (in my understanding) is a household name in Japan. Their more expensive (to be blunt) lines are made entirely Japan and replacement parts (like rubber seals, which can wear out over time) are available for purchase through their site. I fully expect mine to last 15-20 years of continuous duty.

Not affiliated, just a thrilled customer.

Edit for additional info: the Zojirushi replaced my Sunbeam Hot Shot single cup boiler that had an unfortunate dry-run and became unusable. They were unavailable in late '21, but appear to be back on the market now. They boil a cup of water in under a minute. If the Zojirushi didn't exist (or I hadn't been willing to bite the bullet on the price) I would buy another in a heartbeat.

Value is what is left when price has been forgotten. Both of these utensils have been high-value for me, but the Sunbeam has a lower initial cost of ownership.
It's just laughable at this point. You bring up a literal quote and link to the video, they say it was a misstatement. The mental gymnastics is impressive.

Yeah that's a complete non-starter for the average person.

People just don't care about EV any more they care about diesel vs mid-grade vs premium. What they do care about is not having to have a second car for the couple-times-a-year use cases, especially since the first car tends to be one of the biggest purchases they've ever made.

I did not mention legacy media on purpose.

I said "as" inadequate. The constructed narratives and data cherrypicking of fringe entertainers like Shapiro and Jones are more frequent and more damaging than the selective reporting and factual confusions of mainstream media. The financial motivations are also slightly different as legacy media is impacted by different billionaire spending vs political infotainers.

Or more plainly: the point was not to say "aha, see, Pool and Shapiro and Jones are the ONLY sources of misinformation, and by omitting, say, the BBC, I think its fine to watch them because they are definitely trustworthy*" - I was saying the three mentioned infotainers are all on the same level. That's an important distinction.
The problem is people don't appreciate the new patterns you use with an EV.

I pay zero for my fueling because I do it at work or a local free level 2 charger where I'll drop it off then walk home and do other things for a few hours and come back. I'm in an apartment btw.

It's not the same as pulling up to a gas station but it's just about as easy, the cars handle better and it's a smoother ride.

You might have to be a little cheap to bother to logistically coordinate free charging, but when I drove a gas car I never got free fuel. It's pretty remarkable that it's an option.

Also they're way cheaper to maintain. I literally do not know where I'd even take my EV to get it repaired because its never happened. I'm on year 5 of EV driving btw.

People believing in FUD over EVs, I have given up on. Whatever, be wrong, it's fine. Also, I don't like Teslas. There's lots of great options on the market, Hyundai and Kia's lineup are fine choices. I'm considering an Ioniq 6 myself, probably mid-next year just to make sure there's no issues.
I'd add a note or two here about how homogeneous the Japanese society is, where everyone "decent" wears a suit, and it was surely even more 30 years ago when pokemon was released. So someone with shorts on the street was probably considered much more of a rebel (a youngster) than today/in the west.
People all seem to believe Twitter is coal powered and some special magic is required to keep throwing coal into the oven. Even under such a ridiculous belief, I'm of the headspace that Elon did keep programmers in particular above all else. However if that's not the case, I think anyone with only modest programming experience can surmise that surely the Twitter source is not such a tangled and complicated mess that any new hire can't grok it in a few days and take over. Alas if somehow that also is not the case, then the ultimate failure of Twitter is the original management for letting the code become unmaintainable such that only a select few in the world can work it. And that would be zero fault of Elon's.
>>I mean it does, but it doesn't override everyone else's.

That same logic should apply to people who claim to be the opposite gender from what they were born.

"Women" as a term is incredibly useful and descriptive when referring to females. It's strongly correlated with multiple important traits. When its definition is changed to mean any one who assigns the word 'woman' to themselves, the word conveys no meaningful information.

I did SF to LA on one recharge with my Model Y. Wasn't very pleasant (physically painful) and I was following faster cars to get in their wind shadow. It works. I was going as fast as the fastest cars this way. Add hills though and it wouldn't work.

I wouldn't hold out if I were you. 400 miles range will eventually come but what's the point in waiting? EV cars are more pleasant to drive than ICE ones, full stop. Don't hold up, just upgrade to the 400 miles one when it comes out.

The one that really threw me was a pretty advanced calculus problem. I took some in high school, but this was pretty far beyond my knowledge and had to take a couple days to even understand the requirements.

I had to go look at the ingredients of the two truffle products I have. A housemate got some truffle salt a little while ago and I was quite enjoying the flavour of that, so I bought some truffle-infused olive oil from the supermarket.

The truffle salt does say it has actual truffle from a town nearby (well 250km is nearby in Western Australia) known to have a truffle industry that grows Black truffles (Tuber melanosporum).

As for that particular olive oil, I don't think I'l be paying the premium for "Truffle Oil Flavour" again.

Been reading a lot of hate on twitter, reddit, and here about how elon is handling twitter. Personally, I love the energy in this picture, want to work at twitter more now than before, and believe they have a good chance of doing great work.

What I see in the picture is organic connection. It's really easy in tech for everyone to get siloed, working on assigned tasks without communication. Greatness comes from the shared spark <and then> head down focus.

I bet elon is trying to recreate the environment that worked at paypal and tesla and spacex. Scrappy, energetic, get shit done, not 100 managers with 100 tiny fiefdoms.

Do give it a try. There are plenty of YouTube tutorials out there.

On Russian Commander ineptitude. A great example is the Rzhev Salient. That kind of foolishness was almost universal across the entire war. They were what Grant was always caricatured as - butchers of their own men. Take a look at Zhukov at the Seelow Heights. Even when the Russians had 10:1 force ratios, their casulty rations where almost always 3 or 4:1.

No question that that Soviet strategic thinking got better. Stalin's purges had ensured that. But the casulty nunbers never approached parity, unlike every single other army in any other theater given the supuriority.

Another example I would point out is Stalin's bald face lies to the western allies about his intentions to Berlin. Stalin wanted the glory - and more importantly the political control - of Berlin, and deliberately misled the allies into attacking south rather the risk the allies getting any share of the battle. This for example freed up Wenck's XII Army to to try and break back into Berlin in a effort to build a escape corridor.

On the lines around the factories - I'd point out that quite a few American factories, power stations, research facilities were also torn down and shipped to Russia. Sean McMeekin makes the argument that the balance of power was provided by American and British airplanes, and even tanks. In fact the uranium that help kick start the soviet bomb program was supplied - by America.

On Bagration, the point is fair - but it is nowhere near true or fair to state that "it was the soviets who defeated nazi germany" and to point at horrific soviet casualty numbers as justification. Those casualty numbers that had almost as much to do with Stalin's purges, his decision to clandestinely enable the rearmament of Germany in 1920s and 1930, his own wars of aggression against Poland and Finland and the constant and systemic view of the total worthlessness of soviet and civilian lives. To think otherwise is to buy into the soviet propaganda, now being endlessly trumpeted by our very own dictator in the 21st century - Herr Putin.

Allied victory in World War II was exactly that.

Note the wireline logs. You can see the radioactivity (which is where the heat comes from) go way up as they reach the crystalline basement rocks.

The technical issue that's going to determine if this is feasible is how quickly water from an injection well can get to a withdrawal well. This depends on the how fractured the rocks are.

I’ve followed a few of your posts on this and I’m sorry that things have worked out this way.

I think there were always some nay-sayers around in replies, but I appreciated what you were trying to do and despite the negative outcome am glad you at least gave it a shot.

Thanks for sharing your story on hn, I feel like I got to learn a lot vicariously.

> McClelland found that people who possessed this combination of traits were most likely to obtain senior leadership positions, ultimately outpacing those who merely had a high need for achievement. [14]

This seems almost like a tautology. If people aim to get what they want, obviously people who want power will get senior positions (Ie, power). This power almost entirely lies on the back of those who seek achievement (because they want to do things), while those in senior positions reap the benefits.

In a way, it seems like the article is saying “if you want to be powerful, want power”

heres my theory;
Thiel and/or Trump have incentivized Elon to break twitter for 2024, as it’s an echo chamber for uniting the left and cancelling the right. When Trump wins 24, all of Elon’s companies get special treatment. Conspiracy? yes maybe and I have no proof, except that Elon just bought a company for 44 billion dollars and 2 weeks later is floating the idea of bankruptcy.

I also wonder if the FTX collapse needs a second review. There goes the left’s second largest donor.
Isn’t that true of everything? There may always be something better in the future. It’s ridiculous to say that we can’t have solutions to anything in the present because there may be better options in the future.

That's the difference between living in Munich or São Paulo, or New York and Miami. Different societies have different tolerances for what's on the books and what gets enforced.

It's pretty amazing when you think about it. Even given Musk's erratic behavior in the previous weeks, it would have been hard to predict something like this.

At a short notice summon the handful of engineers who survived the purges to the office at 2pm on a Friday and to bring 10 screenshots of code they've written "for review". With that implicit threat, have them wait until 6pm. Then keep them around until 1am to give a tutorial level introduction to the Twitter infrastructure to Musk (who could have gotten this months ago). There's just no legit justification for it; it's pure bullying and a loyalty test.

And then to top it off, have your pet venture capitalists post fawning tweets about how this really shows the classic SV energy.
Musk called them in at 2pm on Friday for a code review.
