This account is over 3000 days old so that’s less than eleven imaginary internet points per day. Which is really how it mostly goes. Three points here, six points there. Nothing much for a couple of days, then something up or down.

It’s not the points it’s the conversation. One of the few times this year I scored highly, I said virtually the same thing in two parts of the same post. Nothing sarcastic, no dark humor, something like +40 points and responses for one, no responses and oblivion for the other. I only know they former because the latter made me curious.

Popularity is weird, not that I’m probably telling you anything new. There are some ideas that are only popular here for a certain crowd, and if they see it first you’re good, if they don’t it’s either gone, or you come back a few hours later to see you’ve swung from -2 to +5. It’s a nice vindication but your flow is gone and so I never feel like those conversations get as far. Maybe that person is a kook, or maybe you’ve had a narrow experience. Or they have. Maybe if you talk about it you’ll learn which.

One of those topics, based on previous experience (here, elsewhere, and I’m person”, seems to be, “DP is much more than caching”.

Anyway, thanks for replying.
> now I have to keep multiple accounts with hopefully my same online handle just to see all my communities I’m subscribed to in a single feed like Reddit does?

better than losing literally everything because beehaw shut down. I already manage multiple accounts for multiple types of communities (including HN), at least the interfaces between these sites are somewhat similar and under a common protocol.

>I want a “front page to the internet.”

I'd rather not have all my eggs in one basket at this point.

But this did oddly remind me of RSS feeds, which were meant to do all this. Minus the modern UI, of course. Do these federated communities support RSS?
While there is a lot of activity going on to build CCS chargers, the current state of the CCS charging network is not great. This is a competitive advantage for Tesla.

So GM and Ford wanted to sign deals to use Tesla's charger network to remove a competitive advantage that Tesla had. Tesla apparently agreed to that, but one condition is that GM and Ford had to agree to switch future vehicles over to Tesla's previously-proprietary (and still Tesla-controlled) "NACS" standards instead of CCS. GM and Ford agreed. Rivian appears to have followed suit after GM and Ford agreed.

Other automakers are now evaluating the landscape to see where things will fall. The best alternative was always going to be that we had a unified CCS standard future, but now that GM/Ford have made that impossible, they may decide that it's better to get some leverage by unifying on NACS rather than having a split-standard future.
People should really avoid the hype in most cases, mojo is basically its own language right now despite its "python superset" marketing bs. It's vaguely like python except for: no classes, no list/dict comprehensions, no lamba functions, tuples are messed up, no global variables, variable capturing scopes are not what you'd expect, no yield/generators, no async for/async with, etc. There's a long list of common python features it doesn't support. In addition, it's closed source and "sign up for access". This thing is the next V in my opinion.

I like that errors stay in the flow of control. No "Exception"s leaping up thru multiple levels of call stack. Instead the plan is: 1) see the error, 2) "%w" the error, 3) kick it upstairs, 4) Mission Accomplished. And at some level, some piece of code will grab the bull by the horns and wrestle it to the ground.

All in all, errors-as-values is a calm way to deal with unhappy code paths. A clear renunciation of longjump.

This is what Tesla fans say, but the actual reasons they give are weak.

The advantages of CCS: It supports 800V today, it supports V2L/V2H/V2G today.

The advantages of NACS: It's smaller, which nobody cares about except Tesla fans.
The Xbox controllers are used to control the periscope which is not a safety critical device. Regardless, the navy uses wired controllers and did extensive testing and verification. This outfit didn't do anything like that; in one video with a journalist the bluetooth controller was a 'feature' because they could pass it around the sub.
Huh. My new phone doesn't have Google play services, so I kept old OP6 solely for the bank app... but the bank app is also on the huawei app store...

Wasn't familiar with this concept. Funny though: in my language, "5th wheel (on a car)" refers to someone being as useful as... well, the 5th wheel on a car, i.e., not useful at all. The "on a car" part is often left out.

(Sidenote for anyone wanting to argue the usefulness of 5th wheels: I'm not my language designated responsible for sayings and common phrasings. Also: 5th wheels tend to be the emergency spare wheels - which obviously do have a use.)

> But one thing I have learned by driving 50k miles these past few years is that you never actually get there meaningfully faster. So really, everyone is better off if they just slow down and hit that cruise control.

Depends what you're driving on. If it's a freeway where you're going to hit stretches of traffic anyway or roads where there's stop signs and lights, sure. When I'm on the 5 going from SF to SD, though, yeah, the clown who's doing 60 in the left lane for miles while holding me up is very much increasing the amount of time I have to spend on the road.

Much cheaper in the long run

That's assuming that you actually want or need a truck (or other tow vehicle large enough to pull your trailer). I went with a motorhome (but don't pull a car) because my other care is a small EV, and I don't really have a use for a truck or other large vehicle.

That's the plan as of right now, but the clear intent here is to push the government to change the rules to allow NACS-only chargers. If a few more automakers (Hyundai and VW being probably the most relevant) sign deals with Tesla to use NACS, it'd be impossible to argue that there's any reason to do a CCS buildout.

Always think of the second order effect of a purchase. Bought a new guitar? Now you have to take guitar lessons and entertain joining a band or going solo if you happen to be very gifted with it. Same with anything. New self-help book? Now you have to get shit done on purpose, otherwise it's just a bunch of paper with no meaning.
I'm not sure it's a "movement" either, but from what I understand it's not at all about "wallowing in mediocrity".

Rather it is simply a rejection of the pervasive cult of meritocratic / hustle-culture propaganda -- which defines anything that questions (let alone has the temerity to directly oppose) its tenets as ... the sure path to mediocrity. Coupled with an observation that is the former which itself fosters mediocrity (and worse) in spheres that truly matter (health, relationships, personal fulfillment).
There's a joke about Java and OOP somewhere in there, trying to break free!
Pros of having a wireless controller: freedom of movement (in this case in a very cramped environment) and not having as much of a tangled cord situation.

Cons: desynchronization issues, transmitter goes bad, receiver goes bad, interference, batteries run up, someone forgets to pack batteries, someone forgets to check if the backup batteries are still good.

WHAT were they thinking??
Having volunteered on the campaign of a pro-transit, pro-cycling candidate in a recent mayoral election in Canada, I've heard this excuse more then a handful of times when speaking with (a certain segment of) the public. When pressed to elaborate, I found that many of them are simply unwilling to give up their car-centric life style and believe that attempts to improve alternative public transit will come at the cost of their commute, or ability to get around by car. They see public transit as an inferior form of transportation, and cycling as a hobby to pursue exclusively on sunny days.

That's startlingly naive. There are breathtaking double standards as applies to women.

One of my friends is a graphic designer / coder working at a web-dev shop. Guys could come in wearing ripped jeans, hoodies, whatever. If she came in with low makeup and casual clothes she was upbraided for not "looking good" in case a client came in.

It's by no means an uncommon incident. It's 2023, there's still a lot of discrimination and inequality. Women choosing to not wear makeup probably don't get jobs and contracts.
>The secret sauce is a pseudo-signal provided by bash, called EXIT, that you can trap; commands or functions trapped on it will execute when the script exits for any reason.

"Secret Sauce", why is this secret at all.

Nothing against the author who's helping the ecosystem here, but is there an authoritative guide on Bash that anyone can recommend?

Hopefully something that's portable between Mac & Linux.

The web is full of contradictory guides and shellcheck seems to be the last line of defense.

> Because trap doesn't pass the signal information to the handler

You can examine $? on entry to the trap function. On signals, it will be 128 + signal. i.e. on TERM (15) it will be 143. On INT (2) it will be 130.

#!/bin/bash

skip_exit=
on_exit() {
code=$?
if test $code == 130; then
skip_exit=1
fi
if test -n "$skip_exit"; then
return
fi
echo "Exiting with: $code"
return $code
}

trap on_exit INT EXIT

sleep 2
false

With ctrl-c:

$ ./foo.sh
^C

After 2 seconds:

$ ./foo.sh
Exiting with: 1

You can also setup separate handlers for each signal and use a sentinel:

$ cat foo.sh
#!/bin/bash

skip_exit=

on_int() {
echo int
skip_exit=1
}

on_exit() {
test -n "$skip_exit" && return
echo exit
}

trap on_int INT
trap on_exit EXIT

sleep 2

With ctrl-c:

$ ./foo.sh
^Cint

After 2 seconds:
$ ./foo.sh
exit

Washington might have more populated parks simply because they have a state-wide pass for getting access to a wide variety of camping spots for cheap. Other states I've been to still have some kind of registration and check-in process where you need to pay cash on the spot for each place you go to

They have a couple of pretty good shots of the controller, and I don't see a wire. Also, the marketing image they include for the controller is clearly labeled as wireless.
What's the point of a one word comment?
A minor point that may have some relevance here. When I was doing genealogical research on my great grandfather who served in the US Civil War, I read that at the time, your legal age was considered to be the age you would attain by the end of the calendar year, so everyone officially aged up on January 1. By this convention, many 17 year-olds who enlisted would have been legally 18 and did not actually lie about their age.
Yeah, the wireless is not good. My initial thought on the headline was Logitech's F310 controller which is wired and missing rumble, but besides that basically identical.
This bit is far more funny:

> The VP who worked most against Copilot’s creation, would later tell me I didn’t deserve the promo. That person is now in charge of GitHub Copilot.

It's a tale as old as time at Microsoft where a VP (who usually has a fake job if we're being real) tries to actively block things they have no actual understanding of, it goes out and is a massive success, and then they take credit and build an empire around it.

Copilot will end up a worse product as a result of this dynamic. All you have to do is look at the anemic release of Copilot Chat, a preview of a product that people working on it should feel embarrassed about, to see how the shift has already happened. It's a shame, but it's how things work there.

There are some high-level execs at Microsoft who are great, and it's a true joy when you work with them. But in my experience, many are completely lost on what their product area is even about anymore, or so actively steeped in org-level politics that they've lost their sense of how to actually Get Shit Done.

> But will the CCS be as fast at charging ? It seems like Tesla could control a lot with their proprietary connector if it has a faster charge rate.

Tesla is supporting CCS because that's what the bureaucratic funding dictates, not because anyone believes CCS will succeed. They will (and should) do the bare minimum.

There's no way in hell you should be able to patent a website. How is this possible?
Carnegie Mellon has a top caliber undergraduate AND graduate program in CS though. The graduate program was heavily focused on research and similarly the undergrad program is heavily focused on execution (coding, fundamentals, design) because... that is where you start and even with the level up most entrants have to the program, they don't have as strong fundamentals (or rigorous math/stats) training.

I might argue that CalTech fits more of the analogy you are looking to make re: Georgetown, but not Carnegie Mellon.
Logitech has a lot of experience, i give you that. My MX518 lasted over 10 years, many other owners reported the same. More recent products by them die often before five years of use. Perverse incentives, news at 11. Sorry for the snark.
You can do that without placing secrets in your IDE, in fact doing so sounds like quite poor opsec.
It can certainly create cheap output, but it doesn't create correct output. AI is being used for many use cases where correct output should be the requirement (e.g. Quora answers). Blockchain resulted in a lot of fraud, AI is going to result in a lot of misinformation.
That's a fair point - if you are going to drive long distances, then a Tesla is the best option in terms of network reliability and price. But for most, an adapter with the occasional road trip isn't a deal breaker. Tesla owners have had to use an adapter for charging at non-superchargers since inception.

Most of the people I know that pursue relationships for purely pragmatic reasons and fail seem to forget that people won't fit into boxes because you want put them there.
