I like to call this the "YZ answer"; I'm asking Y, which is the actual question I have, but someone else tries to convince me that my "real" question is "Z" because they happen to know the answer to that.

Tangentially related, but does anyone else besides me have an irrationally strong dislike of the name "XY problem" for this phenomenon? I feel like that name could apply equally well to basically any problem where you have two things you could call "X and Y", which is...a lot of problems. Why not call this something like the "mistaken question" problem or the "incorrect premise" problem?
I'd still pick Unpoly over it. Seems far more high level, feature rich and easier to use although less popular. And if I wanted a popular approach I'd pick Hotwire which can be used with any backend framework anyways.

Seriously, why does this keep popping up? I get it, it's cool. But I feel like in a month we're going to see "How I gamed the HN front page to put my website on the top every day for a month".
Yeah, you really need to think two steps ahead and write out specifically "My problem is Y and not X, and the difference is ..."

I find good success writing in my question "question is similar to <already answered question> except I need this and that, which that solution doesn't provide"
That's how they achieved the "least reliable" award.

Serious applications should use the design system of the platform they’re running on.
But Microsoft would say, we now support 11, everyone got a free upgrade, it's better, therefore nobody is harmed.

> Also, "in prod" is such an odd thing to say about Nix. It's a built-time thing. Nix doesn't run in prod.

What people mean by "use X in production" is that X is a key dependency as part of the production process.

If you describe a NixOS configuration for the system where your services are running, you're "using" Nix, even though the Nix-specific stuff is already done.

This relates to risk. -- If it turned out that using Nix to build packages or to configure a system then caused problems when running services later, that would be a problem. Whereas, "using in prod" suggests confidence in no problems, or in being able to fix any issue in a timely manner.
Model y can get 10k in rebates depending on income. California would wave sales tax, give local rebates, and federal 7.5k rebate.
> Go to a Ford dealer and try to buy a Mustang Mach-E and they'll try really hard to convince you to buy an ICE Mustang.

At least in EV-forward markets, this isn't much of a thing anymore, simply because they can't fight the fact that EVs have become the new aspirational cars.
CCS is inferior it’s a huge clunky connector with no performance benefit over NACS.
Unpoly is great. I used it a few years ago for reimplementing the UI of an application built with a traditional MVC framework and I was impressed with the results. Nobody could tell it was not React/vue/etc from the outside and the frontend code was quite simple and minimal.

That's not what an Oxford comma is, FYI. I think GGPs interpretation is grammatically correct but I agree that the phrasing is ambiguous. But given Tesla's documented unreliability one can assume what they meant...

Easy, crossovers are just more popular. Slightly bigger and a hatchback. Much more practical.
It’s true. Luxury cars using brand new technology are less reliable that cheap and simple cars with old fashioned technologies.

The first Tesla model S were particularly not very reliable. Lot of equipments, new vertical integration from Tesla on many parts, unreliable premium technology such as air suspension…

The model 3 and y are a bit better. The electric (not hybrid) BMW i3 from the same period has been one of the most reliable BMW, a more experienced brand with ICE cars having similar equipment.

If you wanted reliability in 2013, a base Dacia was probably a better choice.
I’m over here continuing to use react for 9+ years but every post on here acts like it’s changing every day.
Ever notice how some minivan drivers go way too fast for the size of their vehicle? Some think it is because the good forward visibility gives the drivers too much confidence. 3 and Y may have the same good visibility "problem" due to the sloping hood and the non existing dashboard.
I’m more into the web as a whole and tech on general. But I’m just curious about everything. I’m not super knowledgeable about ML but I’m certainly interested in the impact it’s having on the world.
Color scheme was not random, it is based on the semafor UI. This is just an experiment. I thought it would be fun little experiment to replicate semafor UI with hacker news content. I think I'll change the random portrait image to something else in next iteration. My goal for next iteration is to innovate stuff on top of semafor experience.
> At no point in history was Rome, the Mongols, or Britain a global hegemon or even extant in a unipolar world.

I think I actually agree with you. Of course, according to the standards you’re setting, neither is the US. The British were fighting some sort of war every decade of the height of their empire, but so has the US. The Mongols never managed to dominate Africa; neither did we (not even to the point of preventing the bloody Congo Wars of the 1990’s).

The reason I brought up the other hegemons is that they managed to significantly reduce the amount of war inside their own empires. That’s the closest analogy to what the US has done.

> The reason it didn't is #1 the US prevented that from happening, globally, at considerable expenses; and #2 restrained itself, generally speaking, from occupying other countries. Fighting, yes. Conquering and keeping, no.

We do still have troops in Germany, Italy, Japan, and South Korea, of course. And we have promised to help defend these countries from attack. If you wanted to be melodramatic about it, you could call it a sort of empire. But I think we might agree that it’s not quite fair to say that.
Set your goal correctly. Your goal isn't to be flawless, it's to produce optimal output. I think looking at criticism through that lens will help.

There's actually no need for that anymore. JavaScript as is supported right now in the latest Chrome, Firefox and Safari is already pretty good. You can get quite far without any backend tooling these days.

The only thing which I believe is still needed is a bundler when your project grows to a certain size. Fetching a complex graph of thousands of files will likely never be fast.

The Kia EV6 is a ground up EV and is better in every way than the Model Y
I remember being worried when Tesla released the Model 3 with a pay-per-kWh scheme. Was that one supercharger by the mall on the way to Tahoe going to be full all the time? Are all of these mass-market sedans going to make me wait?

That did happen a little bit at a few legacy superchargers, but that minor inconvenience was outweighed by the sheer preponderance of additional superchargers built, everywhere. Instead of worrying about the sole charger being full, I can look on the map, and choose among several nearby chargers, each with reasonable meal options.

I hope this happens with Ford. More cars should increase demand for stations, and additional stations increase convenience for everyone.
I prefer "and no one wants to hear yours".

I tried that. It didn’t work out for me. Politics, organizational instability, bad executives and a never stopping pager are all insufferable. It kills the very thing, the entirety of joie de vivre that is the main reason for making money.

Sure, and VW also self-reported that their engines passed emissions testing and Ford self-reported that the Pinto was safe. Self-reported numbers by the manufacturer who has a direct financial interest to lie and who maliciously miscategorizes their L4 design intent system as a L2 design intent so that they do not need to do safety testing or submit reports to regulatory agencys is the opposite of believable.

You are assuming the data is compacted such that the 90day data is grouped by expiration date. This is not how production deletion works at any reasonable scale where cost of media matters.

In reality, the data is all mixed up because data gets backed up usually around the time it's written, and gets deleted in a completely different pattern. The art of compaction is very important, and things like optical and tape make inaccurate compaction extremely expensive due to the reduced IO.

And even if we pretend you do have perfect compaction, you still don't have nearly the IO that HDD would provide. Considering hypothetically you have perfect compaction, that also means you have the perfectly smallest live data set, and thus the HDD premium is even smaller for wildly better throughput in disaster.

That link points out that air pollution isn’t “primarily” due to vehicle emissions except in some cities.

On both regional and national scales, vehicle emission has been identified as one of the most important contributors to air pollution in most cities in China (Gong et al., 2017; Wang et al., 2010; Wu et al., 2016), and has even surpassed other contamination sources in some cities.
Thank you very much. You words are kind. So the way I approached it was that, the moment you open the page you should be able to see all the top posts that you see on hacker news. The hero post is the top post in HN, all the posts with images are position 2 to 6 in HN. And rest of the elements are divided by 3 and organised that way.
This shit is pointless. It doesn't move the needle with consumers (who are price conscious above all) and activists (who require purity). If you give in to activists a little you will be punished harder than if you do nothing at all primarily because activists don't want an outcome so much as they want to be activists.

Given this, serve your customers at all costs. The environment is something you can deal with later.
A tweet is not a contract, but it’s very nice
In Denmark we now have an infrastructure / network-provider split on fibre, so that one company provides the physical infrastructure and then there is an open marked for network providers to provide services over that fibre.

Physical last-mile infrastructure is owned and operated by utility companies (privately operated non-profits), typically together with electricity or water, but in some areas by specialized fibre utility companies.

This setup requires a mature technology, but it has been very effective in driving consumer costs down.

I've a 20 year old BMW that's never given me any grief with the air suspension. Air suspension is not new technology and it wasn't new when my car was built.
It's great Europe chose a common standard, but the CCS plug is just a horrendous bit of design by committee IMO. The difference in size alone vs NACS (the new name for the open standard for the Tesla connector being adopted by Ford):

> In Europe you can go ahead and charge your BMW i4 on a Tesla charger.

You also can in the USA at some Tesla super chargers and new ones going forward, thanks to Tesla's new Magic Dock at the US superchargers (they now support both CCS and NACS). While a common standard would have been nicer, this is a relatively neat solution that lets a single cable work for both standards and provide DC fast charge.

It was revealed today that the Tesla Model Y took the place of Toyota Corolla as the number one selling vehicle world wide. Tesla is the one doing the over taking.

I wish companies would at least have a jargon free sentence of the page describing what the product/thing is.

Another aspect of this: more often than not Y is a solution that has side benefits that are not explicited in the request.

The obvious ones are buying a new computer to use a resource intensive software. There might be options to upgrade the existing parts to cleanly meet the requirements, borrow/rent a machine for the length of the project, spin up a machine in a cloud, straight ask someone else with an adequate machine to inherint the task etc.

Those could all be more optimal solutions, but I'd still totally ask for a new computer instead.
Great idea! You should definitely make links to your own site clickable in the 3 examples.
The V4 superchargers have a longer cable, though they’re not rolling out yet. The length is challenging because the cable is liquid cooled.

You must not work on frontend because I've seen plenty of "simple" libraries exactly like htmx adopted and turned into monsters that power entire SaaS products the same way WordPress is turned into pseudo custom Web apps by non-programmers countess times.

Being the guy who has to decipher it is not a fun job and gives you perspective on early technology choices.

I've read enough discourse on HN re htmx to recognize people seeing it as an adequate solution for serious business usecases because they don't grasp the natural evolution in demands for complexity and interactivity in browser UIs.

People love downplaying why more serious JS frameworks are adopted in the first place then find themselves in situations that need it but try to pretend they can just force it on primitive "simple" libraries, as we saw with jquery ad nauseam. Or more likely they leave their mess for the next developer to do the job properly from scratch.
> So no, after 128x calls not every thread will succeed.

I don't think you understand the situation I setup. Lemme try again from first principles.

-----------

In general, as long as you have proven that there is a *FINITE* amount of work to do, then when you prove forward progress (ie: at least one thread makes progress), you prove forward progress for the whole system.

Even if the "slowest-thread" loses every single time, eventually the 127x other threads run out of work, and the final thread can finally call compare_exchange_strong by itself. When it is the only thread calling the atomic, it will succeed (no one else can contradict, because everyone else has run out of work and is out of the loop).

Its as simple as "finite work" + "forward progress" == "eventual completion". Even in an imbalanced system where thread #128 is 128x slower than thread#1 and "loses the race" every single time... eventually thread#1 runs out of work (it succeeded so many times, its done). And the other threads get to finally run.

-------

Writing code that guarantees forward progress is the hard part however.
Yeah, I’ve spent about five or six times as much servicing my Honda Odyssey over the last three years as my Tesla. And, my Tesla isn’t zero-maintenance but most of the service has involve me parking my car on my driveway and waiting for the mobile tech to show up.

Meh, my wife was grooving for a Polestar so I rented a Polestar 1 for a weekend and we both came away feeling like it was good to rent because we definitely didn’t want to buy it. It was like the Swedes put all their effort into the material design and gave no shits about the UX. The UX was something Ford would have been proud of in 2009.
> So yeah, no matter how good at cooking you are, if you "just follow" a recipe properly and it doesn't work, then the recipe is wrong or incomplete.

No, this is 100% false, and this is exactly why recipe collections are popular, because people think they can just follow a recipe to get a delicious meal. There is an immense difference in quality and properties of ingredients, difference in cookware, difference in appliances, etc. What's "medium heat" ? What's a "medium-sized potato" ?

You need to know basic cooking to work around these differences, you need to know what something feels like and looks like when it's done, otherwise you will forever fail.
You just plug the cable into the car; the system knows the car's VIN and charges the card on file. There is no smartphone required. It's a nice, seamless system compared to the competition.
That claim wasn't sourced from the Google has no moat paper, but from the announcement for Vicuna-13B if I recall (or some other similar model). It shouldn't be taken as an independent quality assessment
That would definitely sounds like what they would say.

The answer would simply be "It's not Windows10."

They promised Windows 10 as the last edition. It doesn't matter whether Windows11 is an upgrade or not. Microsoft explicitly made a marketing statement declaring that all future updates to "Windows" would be updates for Windows10, not new editions.

Further more, the Microsoft Corporation explicitly stated that "There will be no Windows 11".

Further quotes : "Right now we're releasing Windows 10, and because Windows 10 is the last version of Windows, we're all still working on Windows 10," Jerry Nixon

Any other claims by Microsoft are automatically denied, pay up or get fucked.

I wish that was how it worked.
Not actually true, the standard didn’t work. You cannot charge a non Tesla on European superchargers despite them using CCS2. (Though they are now opening up superchargers to non teslas everywhere)
Do you still use gulp or is it webpack nowadays?

No and no. But they are opening them to non-Tesla cars by providing an adapter. For this, you pay with your credit card via a smartphone app.
I don’t see how it’s doublespeak, they only started calling it that after opening it up for everyone to use. And it IS the most common charging standard in North America by far, both in terms of number of cars and number of chargers.

This.

90% of the toolchain is not required at all. Just quality of life improvements.

Good ES6 (and TS) idiomatic code feels actually closer to reading Scala than reading a legacy Jquery app.

And the V8 engine has so much investment in optimizations today that is actually closer to Java and in some cases lighter than Go.

IMHO people don't hate JS in reality. They hate the strawman made of the worst parts of Junior code ever encountered and inconsistencies that really don't happen in practice unless you actively look for them.
HTMX is just HTML.

HTMX substitutes a DOM element with the HTML response you get from an on-click HTTP request instead of redirecting to a new page.

Claims of HTMX being yet another complexity or yet another JavaScript framework fail to acknowledge this.
IMHO, that sounds just like a burnout from activism, caused by cynical people who are "meh" about the issue.

Logically, your claim (that catastrophizing drives people away from activism) doesn't make much sense. If you still think that environment has same value as you did in the past, then you should still support the ecological policies, regardless what people are saying. If you only supported them because of catastrophism and not because you don't inherently value it, then you were misled and shouldn't have advocated it in the first place.

What I am saying is you have moral agency, and if you feel misled by other people's factual claims (e.g. exaggerating the impact, regardless of reason), it shouldn't change the validity of your moral stance or your values. But if your values didn't change, you're still an advocate, although perhaps with a different outlook.
