And yet, owning and driving a car (especially at the extremely cheap gas prices in the US) is still vastly less expensive than it would be if all the externalities were adequately accounted for. Society is subsidizing car ownership at high levels, and if it doesn’t feel like it – well, that just goes to show how unsustainable personal automobiles are!

(Also, your calculation doesn’t include depreciation, which people don’t often think of as a cost, but economically it absolutely is.)

in the netherlands people just bike or take public transport, most of the time its faster than car (up to 12km or so bike is actually much faster)

walk is actually fine as well
Well said. The pro-EU narrative hypes up everything in the EU or Europe zone ignoring data. For e.g., US rail infra is more than that of Netherlands per capita:

Who cares? You can't martyr yourself to other peoples' ignorance. Right tool or technique, right place, right time: people bear their own responsibility for learning these, or for finding out about them when the need arises.

There's a comment somewhere else in this thread about how developers need to learn the difference between building a shed and building a skyscraper. I think that comment is spot on. Sometimes a shed is fine.
Same, but after working with folks on these issues, turns out mostly they just don't have clean, well formatted data to even put into these tools.

>And when this topic comes up, the responses are generally, “who cares?”

>because the issue must be seen as impacting females negatively to justify any interest by society

Huge cognitive leap between these two sentences. My response is closer to "who cares?" than panic. My reasoning has nothing to do with women. Are men with lower (but functional) testosterone less capable of happy, productive lives? I haven't seen any evidence to support that thesis. Therefore, who cares. Is sperm production a major bottleneck in human reproduction? I haven't seen any evidence to support that. Therefore, who cares.

Fluctuation within the very wide ranges of "enough sperm" and "enough testosterone" doesn't really matter.
Older cars come with higher maintenance costs and reliability issues. As you drive down the financing costs you're increasing the maintenance costs. Maintenance costs also come with aggravation costs, potential towing costs, using vacation time to deal with servicing a vehicle, and so forth.

If you have no vehicle whatsoever and you need to get one, you're looking at $500-$600 per month in total costs to get something that's reasonably reliable. As I noted in another response those costs don't even include parking. I also didn't account for things vehicle registration costs and emissions testing costs. It all adds up to make vehicle ownership quite expensive. I'm not surprised at all that young people are re-thinking the premise of owning a vehicle.
Partial escape makes all those bribes and paid money for loyalty worth anything.

The water beads up and falls down the screen per the quote I added. That may be fine for something like a self-cleaning solar panel, but on an indoor touch screen (a) I highly doubt you wouldn't have some sort of streaks or trails on the screen that you'd want to wipe away, and (b) where is that water going to go? A teeny little puddle at the bottom of your touchscreen nightly seems like a pretty obvious downside to me.

The truly baffling thing to me, is I swear one of the hardest emphasized lessons in grade school was on the dangers of a monoculture. And yet, the vast majority of farming seems to just double down on it.

Worse, non-farming does to. So many societies and institutions seem to try and build up the equivalent.

This is a lame slippery slope argument. $30MM dollars as net worth is well above the vast, vast majority of Californians, even those in STEM, acting, or other fields.

Most of the fearmongering is also pretty lame, for the same reasons -- "soon it will be the 5-millionaires!" -- which is, again, far removed from the average Californian, even the average STEM worker in Cali outside of mid-to-high level FAANG types.

This is a weird statement. His comment wasn't combatative at all, and additionally men have been very marginalized in anglophone societies (USA, UK, AUS, CAD, etc) in the past 20 years by the media (just look at those ads where the guy's only function in his family is to cook steak on the BBQs, while the woman brilliantly manages everything like a CEO :P ), while women have been celebrated. The original idea of all this when I first encountered it in the 90s was something called "equality". But it's been thrown out the window totally.

Even if you don't agree with it, people are allowed to express how they feel. Passionate reactions (and this is hardly even passionate -- it's just a statement of this person's perception of the state of things), are ok. Sometimes even needed to spark discussion. He feels things aren't equal anymore -- and they aren't. Again in anglophone societies....
Of course, the generations that did this will deny they had any hand in it, and suck it up to their children (you know, the ones they raised apparently) are lazy, sheltered (by who I wonder), etc etc.
This deserves an answer. It's not this step. That step was back in the Industrial Revolution. Prior to that, humans relied mostly on muscle power. Either our own or animals. Sure, there were watermills and other things, but those were location-dependent. For tens of thousands of years the only reliable way to get things done was for a human or animal to lift, pull, push, or whatever.

Now comes the AI, or really LLM, revolution. All the mental gruntwork humans are still stuck doing, underutilizing their brains, can now be done by computers, so the hype says.

Between the massive reduction in the need for physical labor and the removal of the need for mental labor, why shouldn't people be living a much more leisurely life? Why should the fruits of labor reduction only accrue upward, while billions are still chained to jobs producing those fruits?
> It can tell a Starkvind purifier to ramp up the fan speed based on particulate levels, for instance

Starkvinds already have an 'auto mode' which does exactly that. I love being able to see air quality and humidity, but in reality, pretty much every device you can control remotely which is capable of influencing air quality and humidity already has the capability built in, and I have fallen short of finding any actually useful automations that involve either humidity or air quality sensors.
From the article you linked:

"The gross pay numbers cloak some details, because they combine regular and overtime pay; SPD uses overtime to staff emphasis patrols, sports events and other special events, such as parades and protests. It spent more than $34 million in overtime pay in 2019.

Last year’s gross numbers are also somewhat skewed, because members of the Seattle Police Officers Guild (SPOG) received lump-sum retroactive raises from 2015-2018, when they worked under an expired contract.

The retroactive payments help explain why SPD’s median gross pay rose from about $105,000 in 2017 and $104,000 in 2018 to $153,000 in 2019, and why 20 employees leapfrogged Best in gross pay from 2017 to 2019."

The $153k median is skewed due to - median backpay of around $35k for 3 years, so in reality median base pay is around $115k.

Tailgating pisses me off. I don’t do it.

But this backlash to my comment about hard braking and wrecks is kind of hilarious.

Basically, my point is that Tesla has made egregiously bullshit claims about FSD and autopilot. They have given them misleading names. And people who want to “live in the fuuuuture” have eaten it up and are using the Teslas like they are actually capable of driving themselves 100% of the time. In all conditions.

If anything, it has made people who rely on it seemingly worse, inattentive drivers.

So while I’m glad y’all enjoy your purchased vehicle, don’t pretend all gripes and complaints lobbed at them are invalid or someone else’s fault. That’s asinine and childish.

You live somewhere that requires a car and you have a car, so yeah, there's no association of car=freedom for you. That is for people who live in the same place as you but don't have a car. When they get one, it's 'ah, freedom'. You could experience this too if you tried to live your normal life without your car.
What does this have to do with SPAs? If you're doing this, you're precluded from using any framework of substance or templates. You can only use packages which are fully compatible with JDM. You're forced to use only systems which require you to model your DOM with function calls, or which parse your templates at runtime.

This is the sort of thing to do for lightweight projects that have a little bit of code. But SPAs are necessarily not that.

you are too pessimistic. Senior profiles definitely dived into the statistics aspect of it all. Experiment design is often a big part of modern business cases, because naturally it is part of the cost to obtain data.

There's a famous economics paper on this:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Market_for_Lemons

Used cars are an example of information asymmetry. If someone has a "bad" car they'll want to sell it. If they have a "good" car they'll want to keep it. Especially if both cars have the same market value because the buyer can't distinguish between the good and bad cars.
Street view is the last nail in the coffin, why drive when you can just take a peek from your computer.

And my own friends who work in the Federal Govt on the GSA pay scale have a strong union as well.

Changing that is the entire goal of the "anti-car" crowd, right? They want city-planers to build neighborhoods that are walkable, accessible by public transport and don't require owning a car. And they want them everywhere, for everyone.
> there was zero guarantee that notifications would ever show up, and they seemed to fall through very often, when the client (at least with Firefox Android) sits in the background

That could also be a longer conversation, but yeah, that was also my conclusion, and again... I don't have proof that this is Google's fault, but it stands out to me that notifications as they're built today are primarily useful for spammy advertisements and engagement requests and are extremely unreliable for everything else.

If your primary use case for notifications is telling the user that your blog published a new article or reminding them to check into their account or advertising a sale, then notifications are great; and you don't really care about reliability in that instance.

If you want notifications to be something the user can really rely on, ie calendar appointments, sign-in attempts, etc... they don't seem like they're trustworthy enough to do that.

Of course, we need those OS-level restrictions around notifications to stop abuse and spam, but that's only because it's super-easy to start spamming the user in the first place. And my pet conspiracy theory is that Google on some level looked at notifications and said "it's more important that it be easy for a blog to get somebody to click yes on this, than it is for us to build a transparent process to the user that would allow us to make the delivery more granular and more reliable." Instead of making it harder for websites to get notifications permissions in the first place, Google made them less reliable; the model is that you will have a bunch of sites that can spam you but they'll spam you unreliably.

Again, I can't prove that, and maybe things have improved, but it's just weird how the entire spec seems designed around advertisements/spam, even to the detriment of everything else.
Must be nice to live in a country where public transport exists and is reasonably functional to get you places without having to wait 25-30 minutes at every leg of your journey.
Yep. The highest-paid officers also tend to be soon-to-retire officers. They get thrown a bunch of overtime by their bosses towards the end because their pension is based on their last x years of pay.

It sucks. But part of the reason is ecosystem shift.

commonjs to esm is a massive shift. esbuild in place of babel is a ground breaking achievement.

Vite, which leverages ESM and esbuild, is very different, and better than webpack.

The ecosystems which haven't changed, I. E. react and angular, are either in middle of transition or suffering from not doing it.
If you read the entire article, which I suspect many commentators haven't bothered to do, you'll find that there are so many confounders in the data that any trend is highly suspect. For example, this one is a bit amusing:

> "After ejaculation, sperm count decreases and takes a while to build back up again; if your community’s ejaculation frequency is changing (eg people have gained access to online porn), that will change its average sperm count."

If one wanted to, one could claim that the sexually frustrated society of the 1950s was resulted in the high sperm count samples from that era, and that sexual liberation movements of the 1960s and 1970s resulted in people having sex more frequently, hence the lower sperm counts in submitted samples.

Of course, there are about a half-dozen other confounders one could cherry-pick so that's not a valid conclusion either. All in all the trend doesn't seem to be very well-supported, compared to other studied trends like the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere due to fossil fuel combustion, the decrease of oxygen in the deep ocean due to warming and fertilizer inputs, an increase in heavy metals in the environment due to centuries of coal combustion, etc.

> Okay, so what about used cars? The average used car price in the U.S. is now over $28K (KBB). That's more than I've ever paid for any new car I've ever bought!

That's more than I've spent on buying, taxing, insuring, MOTing, and repairing every car I have owned since I passed my driving test nearly 30 years ago.

We live in an age of ubiquitous information. It has never been easier to learn how to repair things. Why would you pay more than most new cars cost, when you could pick up some shiter for a few hundred, run it until it breaks, and then figure out how to repair it from a couple of youtube videos?
