I had this thought years ago:

Real number 1 is 1 OR -1
Imaginary number 1 is 1 AND -1

In other words, when you “break apart” i, you get 1 and -1

In the beginning, they did cost money. Netscape offered a free version for home viewers (but charged companies - NetWare came with a user license). Microsoft sold a $29 "Plus Pack" for Windows that included Internet Explorer. That changed when Bill Gates decided to "steal Netscape's oxygen" and become the evil overlord that most people remember him as.
I suppose I fundamentally do not agree that the skills are unrelated. I think they are the same skills, but applied to a much smaller problem that fits in 45 minutes. The author does not make any case that the smorgasbord of alternatives he offers are any better. And none of this has to do with your “well I can just Google a well-known problem like this in real life so it doesn’t matter” argument.

These are all valid points, personally I don't plan on touching these savings for a long time (nor do I really need to track it using apps like Mint/RocketMoney/etc), but if you do then the Apple Savings account really isn't a good choice.

Personally I see it being tied to my phone as a positive, I don't really need to think all that hard about it, signing into an antiquated banking website, doing 2FA, etc etc etc.

Hopefully over time Apple adds these things, but they're certainly not a blocker for me.

That fantastic app factor goes a long way for me.
I’m not sure quite certain I understand your viewpoint. It seems like you are hinting at remote work obviating much of the daily commute. The issue I’ve seen with that is that public transport becomes useless since it’s largely oriented towards getting people into metro/city centers - not running errands or entertainment - which becomes the primary reasons you leave the house. While not true in HCOL urban areas - which probably includes much of NYC proper and probably half of SF proper, at most this is especially true in urbanized suburbs in or near those places. Beyond that, it’s generally hopeless.
I tried Notion once to replace a Trello board, but couldn't find a way to have cards with checklists inside.
I think the incentives are well-structured for both public utilities and private industry to offer solutions for EV charging for apartment dwellers. A power connection with app-based billing (or something) on most streets seems perfectly doable. The electricity is probably already right there, relatively simple equipment, relatively easy to manage charging times and speeds for grid stability. I'm excited to see these solutions roll out, but I don't think it's going to be a big hurdle at all.
> Without knowing any details, I would blatantly assume they cut back purely out of it being the most profitable thing to do.

Yes, that is blatantly what they did. There was an entire speech from President Biden on it:

“You should be using these record-breaking profits to increase production and refining, - Invest in America for the American people. Bring down the price you charge at the pump to reflect what you pay for the product... My message to oil companies is this: You’re sitting on record profits. And we’re giving you more certainty so you can act now to increase oil production now.”

So again, oil and gas companies found it more profitable to produce less, and it became a national political issue to not let them.

Give us a break, nobody has done more to ruin journalism that Google manipulating ad auctions (bernake), rewarding click bait (doubleclick), and forcing small papers serving local markets to compete for search placement with massive companies like the NYT.

Buc-ees somehow manages to have gas stations with over 100 pumps[1]. I am usually skeptical of claims that the free market will sort it out, but it is easy to underestimate how powerful financial incentives can be. I don't think it will take long for EV "gas" stations to exist.

That's true, and I made a conscious decision not to mention cross-contamination, knowing that the hn community would fill in the gaps.

The short answer is that no, the label gluten free alone does not say anything about cross-contamination.
yes, specifically doing things without complex numbers breaks if you require composing systems to work like they do in normal quantum mechanics (composing with the tensor product).

If you drop that assumption about how things compose then you can use something like the real matrix representation where 1 is a 2x2 identity matrix and i is some anti-symmetric 2x2 matrix.

An alternative to OCaml is Flix (https://flix.dev/) which attempts to address some of the critiques in the post. For example:

> Bad standard library

A particular goal of Flix is to have a consistent standard library based on type classes.

> Standard types are sometimes persistent, sometimes mutable. List, Map, and Set are persistent. Stack and Hashtbl are mutable.

In Flix immutable types are named List, Set, Map, etc. and mutable collections are prefixed with Mut, e.g. MutSet, MutMap, etc. Mutable data types also carry a region.

> Also, OCaml has no tracking of side-effects (like in Haskell)

Flix has an effect system that tracks purity/impurity.

I feel like the IRS should just make the rules of the tax code in a spec that can be implemented by many.

I think we're on the same page about it being totally reasonable and fair for individuals to have their own tolerances and security postures. We need more principled people in the world, keep it up!

Let me put it this way. In this case, specifically, what you're claiming is pretty outrageous and, if true, sounds like something I should take more seriously too. If you can give me examples of Tesla abusing users' trust and operating in a way that is not in accordance with their privacy policy, user consent, and/or general understanding of techno-decency, then please surface the evidence to support your claims so I can consider your argument more seriously. Otherwise what you're claiming does not align with my experience owning a Tesla and my knowledge about how they're designed and engineered.

The pragmatic in me understands that there is always a risk that a future software update will change the behavior of a product in a way that is not in my interests. That is a risk I take by using any software product and something that responsible people keep an eye on, agreed. I'm just not going to categorically avoid software that can be updated out of fear that it could start spying on me. If it starts spying on me without my consent, good bye.

I also understand that we may even have different tolerances for living with connected hardware and software. If you're the type of person that compiles their own firmware and updates their own devices offline after personally vetting the software, I'd buy your concern about trust a little more too. But honestly it just sounds more like you're saying "yuck Tesla, I wouldn't trust them to build a respectful product", while ignoring the fact that you're likely posting this from a smartphone, if you know what I mean.

And it goes both ways ... sometimes there isn't a fit, or there is a skills mismatch, or (list goes on).

I would agree that every 6 months - year you should interview for job(s) you are interested in. Once it gets to an offer, maybe it's a big increase in pay or title or whatnot, and it might make sense to move. Or, maybe it's not as enticing, and you can negotiate a bit.

Hiring and interviewing is a two way street, and in the end there are many candidates and usually just one position. Just because the one you are interviewing for isn't a fit doesn't mean you don't love the place if they have a different opening. Just let them know!
OK. How does this answer my question, since presumably I would still want to identify at least the mediocrities rather than the complete jokers who have nothing to contribute?
The F-150 Lightning is already quietly getting close to the fastest selling EV in the country. Indications remain that the biggest thing stopping it from topping the list is still silicon/supply chain shortages Ford should have fixed years back.

There's a lot of "rolling coal" sorts, sure, in places like the Midwest, but even many of them come away from test drives of EV trucks impressed. EV trucks nearly market themselves because torque is always the main problem/focus/interest of anyone that uses a truck as a truck (for hauling), and diesels can't beat electric in practice on torque.

And these highlight the main reason why IKEA is still so successful. The apparent starting price for a bed appears to be $1800 on those sites (at least the ones in which I could easily find a price). Meanwhile IKEA has options under $200. I understand all the complaints that people have regarding the durability of IKEA furniture and how it is potentially getting worse, but replacing IKEA furniture every 2 years is still a more attractive deal for many people than replacing some higher quality stuff every 15-20 years.
Yeah yeah yeah. History is extremely ugly, and the history of the Americas is certainly among the horrors.

It’s a very lame argument for not paying taxes though.
> Will there be a charging dock every 2 meters on every single street?

This exists on my street (residential neighbourhood in London) right now! Some of them are coming out of lampposts, others sprout from the floor. It's just a pilot scheme, so this doesn't exist in many places in the UK yet, but it seems to work pretty well. And the works to put them in didn't take very long.
> IKEA has always fallen apart when y

Some of it has. Not everything they offer is particle board, etc. though.

I similarly am obsessed with maintaining my own knowledgebase and wanted it to be self hosted and open source.

I was looking at setting up a wiki and considered Dokuwiki and Bookstack. I ended up using Tiddlywiki, which is by default a single user wiki that is actually just a single HTML file that defines the whole app and the wiki contents. This means that all you need to run it is a browser that can read HTML and run JS.

I since migrated from running it as a single HTML file to a Node.js server to enable better version tracking with Git and to make saving updates less cumbersome. It's a little wonky to save updates to the single-file version without a custom browser plugin or app.

Anyways, at some point I might try migrating to a more traditional wiki solution as I like the idea of being able to share parts of my wiki with others. But for now Tiddlywiki works nicely for me!
I believe that CATL battery is supposed to hit 1kwh/kg in the next 5 years. That's enough to quadruple range of current EVs if maintaining the same weight. I would be interested in this, or at double the range with half the weight (so about 800mi in an EV truck).

I don't think production will ever go away. But I do think that if you hit densities 500wh-1kwh and at a cheaper price, it will be relegated to niches. Maybe that will take 20 years.
I've been using syncthing to sync logseq and it works very well.
I'd tried paper notebooks (including really tiny pocketable ones) and Google Keep before picking up Apple Notes. Notes is the only one I've not had to work at continuing to use—it's just there, and I use it, and it works fine-to-great at everything I use it for, and that's it.

If they ever turn it into some slow webshit thing, that may set me looking for another solution, but until then, no complaints on the note-taking front.

I barely even try to organize it, and just let search do its thing. If I have some particular project (say, I'm DMing an RPG and composing & organizing my world/encounter/session stuff in there) I may try to keep all that in one category/folder for easier browsing of multiple related notes at once, but otherwise, I just dump stuff in and let search bring it back for me if I need it.
Do you really think all of those cars passed the bus? I have been on that route and I can tell you that the likelihood of that happening is 0. Also, the buses have priority signaling so they never have to wait at red lights for long

The route in Portland was downtown to approximately 42nd Street and powell. The bus drives on bus only roads and crosses a transit only bridge so it beats cars sitting in bumper to bumper traffic every time

For all its material advantages, the sedentary life has left us edgy, unfulfilled. Even after 400 generations in villages and cities, we haven’t forgotten. The open road still softly calls, like a nearly forgotten song of childhood. We invest far-off places with a certain romance. This appeal, I suspect, has been meticulously crafted by natural selection as an essential element in our survival. Long summers, mild winters, rich harvests, plentiful game—none of them lasts forever. It is beyond our powers to predict the future. Catastrophic events have a way of sneaking up on us, of catching us unaware. Your own life, or your band’s, or even your species’ might be owed to a restless few—drawn, by a craving they can hardly articulate or understand, to undiscovered lands and new worlds.

Herman Melville, in Moby Dick, spoke for wanderers in all epochs and meridians: “I am tormented with an everlasting itch for things remote. I love to sail forbidden seas…”

Maybe it’s a little early. Maybe the time is not quite yet. But those other worlds— promising untold opportunities—beckon.

Silently, they orbit the Sun, waiting.
re: price/utility curve

That's so correct. Every other retailer it feels like wants to focus on competing on price by ever lower quality. I strongly prefer paying more for higher quality of things are not junk. Low quality is a waste of resources and of my time.
Yeah, anytime someone applies "delignification" to wood, you're left with rayon (synthetic cotton). Then they added polymers back. So it's like they mixed some plastic and some cotton together and called it wood.
"The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart" - Psalm 34:18 KJV

Seeking God is not a coping mechanism. Terrible things in our lives simply open up our hearts to God's word, and help us recognize our sin nature and seek God. Then when you realize it's as simple as believing in Jesus Christ's substitutionary death, and you can defeat death and sin as well, then of course it would seem like a no brainer, because it is! It's the greatest news ever, that we can be reconciled to God and have a direct relationship with the creator of everything.

That's what's great about electricity! It abstracts the power generation technology. If we need to temporarily use natural gas to power it, for example, we can just do it and still achieve better efficiency than ICE cars. But we're going to have to develop that renewable power infrastructure anyway. And renewables are now cheaper in many cases than polluting alternatives.
I used Taskwarrior before and found it worked pretty well for tasks but not for longer notes or tasks that need a lot of description. I used it for a few years before moving to Org Mode for tasks and Tiddlywiki for my knowledgebase.
It depends on the product. All those random USB C docks and hubs? Sure, you can find identical ones on baba. But there are products that aren’t really available. I’m sure you can get stuff identical to Harbor Freight, but actually identical to Milwaukee or Dewalt? A bit harder.
> layoffs.fyi

These include "Non-Technical staff" which have been the majority of laid off employees. [0] [1] [2] [3] [4]

> they don't use mass firing as a means.

They do. Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Apple all had yearly layoffs for underperformers, while maintaining growing headcounts. Target was around 5-10%. The difference is these layoffs were not nearly as talked about in the media.
