Sure. It’s nice to have. I absolutely give google (limited) props for ASOP. Tho it’s “open” in mostly the “you can see & download the code” sense, not the “we’re open to contributors from the community” sense, but still… it’s great they did that.

But it doesn’t make using the “open” software that’s completely controlled by the giant corporate empire any more “cypherpunk”, does it?
My Canadian town of 70,000 has about 100 public CCS charging stations but one for Telsa. So no not great. It's already there so why are they switching?

A GM executive was on the news saying how Canadians complained in a survey there were not enough charging stations. I say BS. This sudden study appears and contradicts the 10:1 ratio of CCS to Tesla charger in my town?
I did this back in highschool (so 1ate 90s). It was a really fun experience but I don't think I learned as much as I had hoped. I learned a lot about bootstrapping a system but not how to maintain it. It turns out package managers are really important for that.

I ended up using the system for a few months until it collected enough cruft that I started over with some other distro.

The thing is, this feature puts a negative externality on all taxpayers, while only benefiting iphone owners and Apple's profits. Apple should be held accountable for the false positive calls this causes, if for no other reason that it incentivizes them to reduce the number of false positives.
When was the last time you used it? GPU acceleration works perfectly for me in Mac or Linux.
Can someone enlighten me on how it's possible for a space telescope to detect far away molecules?

I suppose it's not actually seeing the molecules themselves, but something that proves the molecules are there. The article mentions:

> UV rays [...] provided the energy to form the molecules

Is that it? The telescope detected UV rays, which necessarily (according to the scientists) correlates to the creation of methyl cations?
Some 20 years ago I went and built "Linux From Scratch". I think this (among other similar exercises I did) enables me to find my way pretty quickly around any new or old tech thrown my way.

That's moving the goalposts? If the feature is for "car crashes" it's reasonable to put it int he car. A generic "this person had some sort of accident" is a much broader specification and much harder to manage all the edge cases for.
but thats debugging, not monitoring.

If you don't know that your service is down, then you don't know where and what to look for. for monitoring, you need to be looking for a specific parameter or string. if that changes, its very difficult to generate an automated alert.
Wrong.
My argument is that government is screwing everything up. Between printing money, which is what is actually causing inflation.

Also that if any obscene profits are happening, it’s because the government is choosing winners, and losers.

Like massive contracts for big Pharmacy, while banning , criticizing or bad mouthing, any alternatives to expensive drugs.

Or shutting down all of the all mom and Pop stores during the pandemic, and only allowing big box realtors open up.

Or having such high regulations In markets that no new competitors can enter.

If you want less inflation, the government needs to spend less.

I haven't run Slackware for maybe 20 years, but I remember running 7.2 at uni and recall really _enjoying_ building everything and having that level of control. It taught me so much about how Linux works. Conversely, I remember finding my initial experiences with dpkg and rpm quite frustrating in comparison.
It needed to happen, between the existing Tesla network and the IIJA upcoming spending on a charging network it will make EV adoption happen much faster. Competing standards only hurts the consumers and will slow EV adoption.
Same, I used LFS for a couple months in college until I got annoyed about manual updates and switched to Gentoo. And back in those days you had to do it on actual hardware, not a VM. I had a job interviewer at the time who asked which Linux distro I used, and it was fun to tell them about that.

I would definitely recommend going through LFS to anyone maintaining Linux systems, it really helps you understand how things work.
Unfortunately, a lot of vehicles these days, mostly high-end, do not come with oil dipsticks anymore[0]. I know that Audi starting switching to sensors-only around 2012, and I believe BMW started even earlier than that.

No worries, no harm! I cook with it a lot too, but because I like the taste. I'll be able to do so with renewed vigour now that I'm told it's healthier too! (I won't trouble myself with learning the possible nuances or even fact-checking that!)

But I also cook a lot of Indian style food, which doesn't really want or benefit from the flavour, and occasionally deep fry - which does call for a higher smoke point.

>if it wasn't built in the last six months it's not cool.

I feel like the perennial posts about lisp pretty handily demonstrate this to be false.
> Email is a text medium

That fight was doomed from the moment it got named "email". With that name people were going to expect "email" to be like postal mail but online.

With postal mail we can use any fonts and styles and colors that we can put on paper by hand or that our word processors can put on paper. We can include graphs and tables and images. We can even send files by putting them on physical media that is small enough to fit in our envelope.

And so it was pretty much inevitable that email would get the ability to handle all that too, as soon as both of these conditions came to pass: (1) the Internet became widespread in the general population and (2) common office and home computers became sufficiently capable to reasonably handle fancy documents.
I have to completely disagree. Application level metrics can also be emitted at the log level, but are much easier to work with as a metric. We have total request count, average request latency per route, and per HTTP response. This is extremely useful for finding performance regressions when new code is released.

I think part of the selling point is the entire integrated experience. There are a variety of nice features and, in my opinion, design decisions that make Vivaldi enjoyable for me, having the whole experience integrated and synced as a whole is more valuable than just selecting a couple individual features. I personally don't use Vivaldi mail, but I'm still able to pick and choose while using other features I like.
Its verrry common over the last decade to either be completely unaware of or completely disregard that no-no, in the US

I don't think police issue subpoenas. They may be able to acquire a warrant to force google to turn over data, but would they actually do it? They would certainly require some sort of preliminary evidence or probable cause.

Of course your attorney could file an action against google (or another party) and a court could subpoena google's records to resolve it, but that's starting to sound expensive...
I think this is great but I continue to wonder about Tesla's plan here.

The Supercharger network is one of their remaining competitive advantages. Other manufacturers were behind for years on efficiency, range, etc. but are now catching up - and other manufacturers are far better at making an actual _car_ than Tesla. Build quality, quality control, durability, comfort, noise, etc.

Unless Tesla is so confident that their manufacturing skills will give them a continuing and durable cost advantage - that makes up for the fact that they haven't innovated or even improved their basic vehicle design for the past 10 years - I don't see how this works to their advantage.
This is a smart people trap: that "thinking" is what makes some people right and other people wrong.

The practical reality is that nobody today can develop a sufficient depth of knowledge in more than a couple of niche subjects at best to be "right" about them at anything other than the most superficial of levels.

Somebody might read a book, or several books, or several books and some blogs about a subject, or even take one or several courses in it, but that doesn't mean they know it. They know some things about it, and some of the things they think they know about it will be wrong.

Maybe part of the disagreement here that isn't being addressed is the difference between ideas (or facts) and principles. My principles have changed very little over the years, and so the direction of my ideas haven't either. But my ideas change frequently because there are only a few subjects about which I know anything and I am a moron in the rest.

edit: and even in those couple of subjects where I might claim some expertise, I'm wrong frustratingly often.
1) Change of scenery: Especially since I started working from home, I often need an excuse to "go touch grass".

2) Human interaction: At the very least, there's going to be a bartender, and most of the time at least one other person sitting at the bar. Not interacting with other humans face-to-face often enough leads to madness.

3) Variety: I don't stock every beer, liquor, and cocktail ingredient known to man at home (despite my best efforts).

And frankly, that "less risk of getting in a fight" comment is probably the biggest one. Not because I'm particularly rowdy, but because it's indicative of a larger theme: at home, drinking alone, I know exactly what's going to happen. I'm going to have 2 or 4 pretty good drinks, watch some streaming shows, maybe play some videogames, and go to sleep. A bar has the allure of entropy. Interesting things might happen. I might see a fight, I might talk to someone with an interesting story, I might taste something I've never tasted before. The lack of predictability is a selling point unto itself.
There are many already available, e.g. ZedBoard, someone just has to do the work to target these other boards and their peripherals/layout.

Aptera, Ford, GM, Rivian, and now Volvo have signed on to the NACS standard. Hyundai is rumored to be next.

But The Biden Charging plan still requires CCS. NACS has the CCS software but not the physical connector. IF the SAE recommends the NACS physical connector as a standard, then this could open the door for Tesla getting funding under the Biden plan.
Well, at least the latest webview API is perfect sandbox at least on the paper. And no code injection. But I have doubts that Google uses it….
I agree it's an imperfect solution, but I do think in very broad strokes it would move the needle in the right direction. Surely a video about engine repair that one only finds when searching the specific make and model would garner fewer 'sexual' votes than a music video or thirst trap.
Well, thank you for writing this comment in a length that allows sufficient precision to express your thought and provide examples.

The only part I would disagree with is this:

>So even though you still could, no doubt, come up with some examples, through the process of writing the essay (or blog post), you'd... realize it was bullshit.

>And then, you wouldn't publish the essay.

Alas, I feel you have some very optimistic assumptions about the level of self-awareness of someone who would otherwise indulge in "fallacious pithiness", the essence of which is condensing a narrative down to a quirky soundbite.

The pithiness doesn't come for free; the process of reduction is even more laborious than the one of expanding on a thought.

That road goes both ways: the same false narrative can be beefed up with numerous examples and arguments that support it, all while leaving the author immensely satisfied with the result.

----

Side note: as an autistic person, I used to make the same mistake, namely, thinking that fallacious argument of the sort we see here are the undesired result of carelessness that could be avoided if only the processes were improved.

Alas, such results, more often than not, are the outcome of a lack of the desire to find and express something that one feels confident is true. Such desire, however, is an autistic trait[1].

Most people find it not only acceptable, but desirable and enjoyable to construct narratives that look good, regardless of their veracity in the actual world we live in.

The laws of physics allow for a society in which PG's narrative would be true; and our society allows for enough outlier examples to cherry-pick for it. (I have experienced criticism for changing my opinion in a long discussion, the change stemming from being convinced that the other side has a good point - but that was an isolated incident). Without an urge to fact-check oneself (is what I say really true?), entertaining these thought experiments and turning them into words for others to read is a pleasant pastime.

It's the prose equivalent of vapid poetry, with pithiness being the constraint instead of rhyme. And it hits just the same.

You are massively underestimating the strain and resources expended for false positives for emergency services. This will be a major issue for municipalities. And it won't be apple footing the bill it will be your local tax dollars at work.

Put another way; if an emergency team arrives late to another accident because they were tied up on a false positive from an iphone and that results in less effective care, what happens? Do we just front the bill for more emergency workers? Do we hold apple accountable for false positives? Do we hold the user accountable for false positives (I guarantee most people are gonna start turning it off then).

Seems like emergency response centers are a little mixed in how they feel about the feature. But this last point is especially important as to why false positives are pretty irresponsible.

> You could show up with your laptop and work, and not get the kind of side eye you’d get from coffee shops.

Conversely, as someone who wants to actually sample the offerings at different coffee shops, I find it incredibly annoying that there's never any space to just sit and drink coffee. Every space is overtaken by laptop users parked for hours. Me, I'd like to try a nice pourover, and sit and savor it for half hour or so before heading on my day. Instead, my only option is a to go cup, and I'm damned if I'm spending that much for drinking out a paper cup standing outside.
Very interesting question! The OP has several other fun thought provoking questions, such as the possibility of using nukes to reduce greenhouse gasses. A hilariously morbid one, posits the idea of drastically reducing the cost and complexity of space exploration by only sending human heads kept alive by onboard devices. The OP figures most of the engineering difficulties centers around accommodating a full human body, requiring a significant amount of mass and infrastructure to support it. If a body is needed at the final destination, one can be grown specifically for the environment. It's no more far fetched than cryogenics.
I always felt that was them being disingenuous.

CCS is still the standard for the entirety of the EU including Tesla's own cars. It may be dying in NA but the EU is still a large market and using a different plug isn't that big of a deal for the manufacturers.
The notation for capturing should be something like "Nxe6." I'm guessing the mistake you're making is just doing "Ne6"
> Apple currently checks your location periodically, so it can fulfill location-based reminder requests, so I honestly figured a similar tech was used for the crash detection. I’m pretty surprised that that’s not the case.

GPS positioning at least used to be power-hungry, to the point it couldn't be run continuously. I'm not sure if that's still the case, but it could be a factor.

I am willing to believe that if you shuffle a problem around enough you create a situation where nobody knows the truth and we’ve made it punishingly difficult to go get it.

It would be easy in a delivery business for an odometer to roll over one or even twice, and if you assign the new kid to get rid of the old trucks he might assume things.

That is not to absolve anyone. The truth can be a liability or an asset, and has to be managed not unlike inventory.

But that’s not what happened here:

> The lawsuit accuses FedEx of replacing the odometers in many of its vans with new ones that read zero miles, using the vans for a bit longer after that, and then selling them at auction with 100,000 miles or less on the new odometers.

That stretches credulity. But also, if you buy a FedEx truck or a police cruiser thinking you got a good deal on a low mileage vehicle, you’re a fucking idiot. Of course they’re going to drive them into the ground before selling them.
