A standard-issue Tesla 3 with no optional frills checks these boxes:

seat 5, has lots of storage in the trunk + frunk, an 18" screen, self driving is great, the phone placement is the most optimal I've ever seen in a car, no key needed (just walk up to the car and it knows you are you because of your phone, or use a credit card style key), and the audio system is outstanding. Oh, and the white interior looks like a space ship, makes no noise, has long range, has a screen in the front to watch Netflix and YouTube.
I didn't like the Netflix dramatization, but I'm waiting for the next post about python and optional requirments.txt :)

When you start transforming the AST, that might be a sign you should switch languages. Kotlin is nice, why not use it.
Does this mean I can extend the interface of existing, possibly final classes, e.g. to add extra (notional) methods to java.lang.String?
I never saw the need for annotating extension methods like in Lombok or Manifold . Lombok is great for other stuff though.

Can't really de-escalate without communicating.

Moreover - and this has yet to be publicly confirmed by some official - the kid, which police couldn't know was a kid - was fleeing because the car was declared stolen, the license plate tagged, and part of a drug money laundering scheme using stolen Polish rent-a-cars the dealer which was employing the young man was running.

The problem with FDIV is that function was not verified fully.

AMD used ACL2 for complete symbolic verification of their FPU and discovered that their 50 million tests test suite still allowed for some bugs to pass.

Here's the same problem - in their approach, a function is specified by some of input-output pairs and their algorithm discovers BDD representation of such function. These input-output pairs may be incomplete to specify function fully, giving the opportunity for something akin to FDIV bug.

Survey: Why America Is Obsessed with Subtitles
You can use vite for that
I have to say I am really disappointed - from Tesla I would have expected more, like a robotic arm that can not only grab parking tickets, but also grab heavy take-out food bags, hand out cash, pay by card (incl. entering your PIN if needed), insert a key into a lock and turn it (in case your garage door isn't remote controlled) etc. etc.

... but I guess that would have negated the slim savings from throwing out the right hand drive option.

... and I fully expect there will be TikTok/Youtube videos appearing over the next weeks of people trying to do all of the above (and more) with this grabbing stick.

Show HN: Reclaimo: An app to get money back from Costco
As per Costco's policy, customers are eligible for a refund if the price of a purchased item decreases (within one month). We've developed a simple app to know when price drops.

Our app relies on prices from Costco's website, but not all items purchased from warehouses are available there.
We're thinking of crowdsourcing to find the latest prices but its still work in progress. If you're a Costco member, please try this app and share your feedback.

> Conversely I find it fascinating that anyone with more than the briefest of exposure to our industry could continue to harbor any kind of naïve optimism in the face of the industry's multi-decade track record of consistently fucking up everything it touches.

I find it fascinating you focused on just the really negative aspects. I mean sure we did pollute the environment, but that's par for course for living things. Keep in mind Oxygen is a waste product for most methane based lifeforms. All living things are entropy maximizers, expecting stuff to not get shitty over time is almost a fools errand.
Tesla is basically not selling the S and X in the UK anymore. But they are still allowed to buy a LHD version for some reason, that must have more to do with UK’s own laws on fancier cars that they already import from Italy and Germany?

You can easily evaluate it by getting say, xxx.com and xxx.net.

Results will be surprising (it were surprising for me)
This is a good point. The problem is that it is very hard to make a living serving high-quality results which is likely why ad-funded search still dominates. The vast majority of the world will likely never want to pay for search on its own.

There are, of course, a few relatively successful paid general purpose search engines but these serve a niche demographic if you consider the world-wide scale of google et al. Possibly specialized search (we build one) will be able to thrive in the future, but these engines also serve niche markets in the end.

Thus, the real competition to ad-based search is not high quality search and that is likely why search results don't get better.
As much as I think this is a dick move from Tesla, I find the term "force" here to be misused. Customers were given the option to cancel their order or accept the left hand drive version. If I had been given this choice i would, of course, have cancelled my order and vowed never to buy another musk product again. I can't understand why someone would go through with the purchase after having such a anti-customer trick played on them by Tesla.

> It is quite common that you only need to optimize very small parts of a program to this level.

It's a quite common myth developers believe about performance. Hotspots do happen sometimes, but once they have been optimized you quicky end up with a flat profile and an "everything is slow" problem. And in some types of apps, the majority of code is performance critical.
Assembly is hardly the reason this is fast. It is necessary to this solution but by no means sufficient.

Extreme algorithmic research combined with a high LOK of Linux syscalls and platform specific optimizations is what allows this to exist. To quote the author, Alex Smith, himself:

> @chx: I already have a master's thesis. This was harder.

This is in a different universe than what can be produced by simply "do it in assembly".
The problem is that annotation is a feature of a developed documentation platform, but because of the nature of the web one needs to sell it as a single product.

Nobody cares about annotating everything (except geeks like me), but people working within specific documentation domains require annotation as part of their workflow.
One major reason I stopped watching movies in theaters is because of the lack of subtitles. It's very hard to hear voices and actors/actresses often do prioritize enunciation. Even when they do, they often use words/names that I do not come across often. Everything adds up to making movies hard to follow in theaters.
This only applies to the S and X we are talking about, which aren’t huge sellers to begin with unlike the 3 and Y (that still have RHD versions and are the vast majority of UK, JP, and AU sales).

Having done Risk Matrix's in construction.

Invaluable for immature companies.

They turn mature companies into mud. There are infinite risks and every bureaucrat has to make their mark. And because you get to the stage of things so rare, it's impossible to quantify.

It's almost like when Homer was promoted to safety and incidents went down. "Risk-Storming" as they call it, slows work so much, less incidents happen because less stuff happens. (For Homer it was getting him out of the way that reduced incidents)

I didn't look real hard but Risk Matrix software was garbage. Most people did it in Word and after adjusting it for the 100th time the word document was falling apart.

People pay good money to get this stuff out of the way, anything to do with compliance equals dollars. Maybe there's an app idea there, maybe it exists, maybe it's too hard to fine tune it to keep the majority happy.
EVs are highly efficient so the driving conditions make a huge difference. ICEs have a constant base consumption that we have gotten used to. It's unsettling at first, but as your consumption goes high a lot in high speed, you can save huge quantities (much more than you expect) by driving slower. You will lose less time than you think driving slower. Last time I spent 30 min behind a fast bus and quickly doubled my reach, more than enough to arrive home safely even while driving faster again.

I think the idea of not taking an EV because in some edge case one might lose a few minutes (30m for charging most vehicles nowadays) extremely superficial and selfish in view of the huge disaster that is the climate crisis. Think about how your kids and grandkids will read such comments in 50 years.
> Native DOM APIs are a lot nicer than they used to be.

You must be joking, Mr. jrajav :)

Native DOM APIs are just as bad as they always were. Because they are stuck in the 90s era of heavy imperative APIs.

There are a handful new additions that are somewhat nice, but all of them either underdesigned, or with warts you need to be aware of (querySelector, querySelectorAll and native fetch come to mind).

Building a UI from scratch with them is just as cumbersome and awkward as it was in the early 2000s, and you'll end up re-implementing half of jQuery at least in the process.
This is why I no longer develop for the front end. It’s too much.

Noah, sorry you're seeing lack of response here. The UI is nice, but I think the hardest problem is network effects and handling of scale. I was wondering, can't you bring your experience and input to one of the existing efforts like BlueSky, or Mastodon clients, and so on, so people see everyone is gathering around one of the solutions and can feel confident moving themselves?

In the current situation, more fragmentation only makes Twitter stronger.
Oof... looks more object-oriented hell to me. I really like the way functional programming languages separate types from functions, and I've been adopting this pattern in my Java code. Extension methods let you do this and keep your fluent api. Thanks for the link though, I didn't know about implicit classes.
Extension methods have been available in C# since C# 3.0 (released 2007) and a great addition IMHO. In recent .NET versions, especially ASP.NET, they are heavily relied upon for core framework tasks. Wonder why Java never got them officially.

Same to me so far, synthesise or summarise examples of tools I'm not familiar with to then explore the documentation.

Lately I've been using it quite a bit for Arduino on a ESP32 board, I had toyed around with Arduino previously but since I got this board for a small hobby project it's been great to ask ChatGPT to generate some examples of the kind of data I want to read from a few sensors. Even when it hallucinates something wrong it's been helpful for my learning.

Another way I've been using ChatGPT is to be a personal tutor to correct me when learning foreign languages, it's pretty easy to create a prompt asking ChatGPT to have a conversation with me in a given language while correcting any mistakes it believes I made, I've been getting feedback from these corrections from some native speakers and so far haven't got any case of "this is absurd and wrong", unsure why it works so well to correct my broken grammar but it does and without a fault.

He may have 3 bundlers. Webpack as a direct dependency, then esbuild and Rollup, because Vitest uses both IIRC.
This is just plain wrong. Last year Tesla sold 56,000 cars in the UK. That makes it about the same size market as the next three largest European countries combined. Given the doom mongering in the news you’d assume everyone in the UK is foraging in bins for their food, but the reality is there is plenty of people with money.
If you didn't need more evidence, the fact that the Java community has been slowly moving towards AoT with GraalVM should cement it. Java's JITs are damn impressive pieces of engineering, but the structural advantages of traditional compilation still win out surprisingly often.
> You could of course FFI into e.g. C for those parts, but that is usually harder to maintain than a few well optimized java classes.

Hopefully Foreign Function & Memory API [0] makes FFI so much easier that we get to drop down to C without much fuss.

Sadly nearly every manufacturer has an equivalently-sized (or bigger) model. For example: Audi Q7s, Volvo XC90s, Mercedes GLSes, new Landrover Defender etc. All monstrously oversized for British roads. All nearly impossible to see past in a "normal" sized vehicle.

Yes, one of the upsides of driving on the left is that it has spared the UK/Australia/Japan from those awful American gas guzzler tanks.
I'm not sure. Even Italian super cars in the UK are right hand drive, but with an import I can understand it being ok; the person buying it knows what's what, but I feel like Tesla (or anyone else) shouldn't be allowed to sell LHD direct to the public in the UK when we don't drive on the right.
Agree on most parts, though a few nitpicking:

> Even in Paris, something like a third of all commuters drive a personal car.

See [1]: to get to their work place, 72% of Parisians and 75% of Franciliens (residents of Ile-de-France, excluding Paris) use public transit. It's at most 1/4 using a car (number not quoted in the study). The "a third" number is quoted for people going from Paris to suburbs during the week by car (which I think includes off-peak trips)

> Out of those who ride public transit, many if not most would prefer to drive, they just can’t afford it

Sorry but that's just an opinion. I'm not aware on a study of that, but I and a lot of people I know would rather not drive. Driving in Paris is a terrible, slow and costly experience.

There was a Commercial Uses of Functional Programming workshop talk back in 2009 where the engineers behind Facebook Chat talked about their use of Erlang.

Musk is a product person which most other brands seem to lack and people seem to care more about the product much more than the image it might be associated with(Musk's political actions). Looks like he managed to strike a product-market fit with the laptop class, which most other brands missed probably because they don't have much touch with that class.

Not a Musk fan but his product and business skills are undeniable. Let's just hope he doesn't go too eccentric.

The new informatics building (well, not so new anymore, they built it around 2010) at the University of Oslo is named after Ole Johan Dahl.

Dahl was a professor of computer science at the University of Oslo and is considered to be one of the fathers of Simula and object-oriented programming along with Kristen Nygaard.

Many of the rooms inside of that building are named after programming languages.

http://magnus.li/ifirooms/

Naturally there is a room named Simula. And there are some rooms named after some big languages like Python and Java. Then there are also rooms named after some more niche languages, like Scheme. And even some obscure languages, like Ada.
Sure, but I only used the roof box on occasional long trips when we had lots of luggage (e.g., visiting the grandparents interstate for Christmas). So I might have paid a few tens of dollars extra in fuel, but it was certainly far cheaper than buying a bigger car when we otherwise didn't need the extra space.

The roof rack and Thule box cost maybe $1200 AUD. But the rack was also useful for attaching bicycle carriers.

And you know all of this. I, as a lowly backend dev + operations guy have tried to get into these stacks for a few times over the years and honestly, in many cases, I just failed. Or I got some tool chain going, but I felt like I had zero control over it and the slightest wobble of anything would just cause it to fall apart and I wouldn't be able to fix it.

I dunno, I just recently made the decision to consider most if not all of this JS stack as a blocker for what I want to do. Then I setup some flask application with jinja2-based server side rendering like back in the day. It doesn't look as modern or shiny (and currently rather ugly due to a lack of any CSS, but I've been told I should stick with pure modern CSS, so let's do that :) ). But it is a blast how much functionality you can get done quickly in that stack.
