Does your question mean that you're worried about people will take your idea and build the product themself?

In most cases, that will not be the case. One can't just simply take an idea, rush to build it and release it overnight and be a competitor with you. Building a product is much harder than that. And even if you get a competitor, it's a good way to validate your idea.
The headline is a bit misleading, an electronic travel authority is not a visa and is substantially easier to obtain than an average visa.

Pretty sure the engine still has pistons and cylinders :)

Here's a nice page explaining the system -- a serial hybrid.
https://www.nissan-global.com/EN/INNOVATION/TECHNOLOGY/ARCHI...

According to the page, you can't plug in these vehicles, is that right?

Chevy Volt was conceptualized as a serial hybrid iirc, but the engine drives the powertrain at higher speeds so it's not a pure serial hybrid. Mazda has a rotary engine based serial hybrid / range extender out or coming out too I believe.

That's right around the same time I first started tinkering with Linux, and I had a similar experience. I didn't know about BSD at the time, but it took me weeks to get my first Gentoo install up and running. That being said, the amount I learned throughout the process made the experience absolutely worth the hassle. Then it was just a matter of getting the conexant chipped dial-up modem to work...

When I call a call center, I’m not looking for suggestions on how to solve the problem myself. This builds up nuclear level rage. If I’m calling it’s because I want to delegate the task of solving my problem to someone who can click buttons and make it happen, fast. And if an AI can do that quickly and happily, then good riddance to those call center workers.

Sometimes interacting with these call center workers is so infuriating, that I’d wager this is probably the most hostile interaction an average person probably has with another live human on some regular basis. When I think back to the times when I’ve been really angry in my life, talking to call centers has consistently ranked as the maddest I’ve ever been, and probably the maddest I’ll ever get. Imagine all of that simply going away with a competent AI – a net good for the world.

Thanks for your feedback! Safari gestures do work very well and really became the benchmark on iOS. It may be a bit trickier to pull out in my case when the address bar is very narrow, and become less convenient to pull and drag around. I'll see what I can do :)
I thought I had read somewhere that the Packed SIMD (P) extension was still going to be developed for implementations that don't need the full-blown Vector (V) extension, for example, embedded processors for digital signal processing.

Who uses git-daemon these days? When's the last time you saw git:// in a README?

Practically all use of git is either the "smart HTTP" protocol over HTTPS, or over SSH. git-daemon is plaintext, you wouldn't want to push over that, and for public use HTTPS has won.

I believe grandparent means what is these days called "forges", a web frontend with user accounts and such, with an extra heaping pile of features.
Great app!

I've noticed on iOS 17 beta the keyboard doesn't show when tapping the address bar once. Other than that, feels very nice to use.
> If you don’t want to pay for the service, don’t ask for service.

If the idea that you're buying this "service" from the waiter is implied, then surely I should be able to not buy it, but that's not really an option anywhere right? You can't go to a restaurant and pick up the food yourself from the kitchen and bypass the waiter. Even if the waiter is happy to let you, the restaurant owner wouldn't. So it's not like "don't ask for service" is really an option - the restaurant is the one requiring the service payment.

(I'm not necessarily disagreeing with your overall point, but this reasoning doesn't lead me to it.)
Yeah, it's a bit confusing with all those brands. Tesla is just Tesla, but Volkswagen is a company and also a brand, and the company owns the brands Volkswagen, Škoda, Seat, Cupra, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley and Porsche. But it is owned partly by another company called Porsche as well.

So yes, Tesla sold more cars in Germany than the Volkswagen brand, but fewer than the Volkswagen group.
I don't even turn my video on these days during calls. Most of my team mates don't. Some of them don't know how I look and I don't know how some of them look. And yet, we work well as a team. We are all in different cities and countries and work remote.

Unless our physical presence is necessary (hairstylist, nurse, chef...), we should aggressively push back on "come to office 300 days a year" requirement. Only dumb middle managers and arrogant upper management (who probably have money invested in commercial real estate) think physical presence is required for all jobs. Either we work remote, or we improve housing and transportation. The former is easier to do while the latter is a near impossible problem to solve in the current political climate.

Those who claim they build friendships etc at work, maybe genuinely ask yourselves - how many colleagues from your previous jobs do you really keep in touch?
hi, great
Toyota is a Japanese company, a country that will burn any thing to keep lights on. So, when people question Toyota's commitment to Electric, I do not take them seriously. Toyota might have sunk-cost going with Hydrogen, but sooner or later they will build electric vehicles. My take is, the complexity of Li-based battery supply chain coupled with their views on Total Carbon Footprint of Li-based cars made them wait for better options.
I wasn't aware EU travellers had to get a visa to enter the US.

Shame that project went the way that it did. A bit ahead of its time if you ask me. There were a lot of controls that phones just didn't support well enough which complicated the project. It was more of a Cordova or Haxe than an Electron though.

Unbelievably, Haxe is still actively maintained. I keep saying I'll get into it, but I never do.

Principle of Least Astonishment

"In user interface design and software design,[1] the principle of least astonishment (POLA), also known as principle of least surprise,[a] proposes that a component of a system should behave in a way that most users will expect it to behave, and therefore not astonish or surprise users."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_least_astonishmen...

Such a feature would negatively affect accessibility, without some sort of accessible clue about where the cursor was moved.
You invest in productivity. The inflation is due to a sudden spike in consumption after decades of limits.
The point is that by stretching you "zealousness" further, you can affect negatively your organisation without being blamed directly.

It's not that these things are inherently negative - but it's where you can put sand in the gears of your org.

I love how easy GraphViz makes it to build integrations on top of it.

In a similar way to this usecase, I created interactive RNN visualizations for a WIP blog post by generating the layout with GraphViz and then rendering it in the browser with D3: https://rnn-temp.ameo.design/loadWeights.html

All the hard work like edge spline generation with bezier curves, node sizing and placement, edge label placement, etc. is taken care of, and the only thing remaining is just rendering some simple paths and polygons.

I don't agree, there will always be an ad funded content creation platform available, and it will have massive usage with young people (who don't have money). TikTok is the most recent one, another will come if they fail. People want content and don't want to pay for it, and there will be opportunity to sell ads in that environment forever.
Fast chargers exist. One could drive 1200 km in an EV in a day.

The Cross-US race in an EV managed to average 66 mph - 80 mph average while driving, with twenty-four 18 minute charging stops.

Obviously a 1200 km drive could do even better than this - since it could start the day at 100% and end at 0%, saving ~25 mins of charge time.
Toyota does have a couple of electric cars; bZ* plus a Lexus.

It's funny for me to come across this comment now. Just 15 minutes ago I got home from driving 1,250km today in an EV. Yes, I am tired. Yes, I agree nobody should drive longer in one day.

Apple Introduces Revolutionary New Laptop With No Keyboard

Amazing article! I especially like the distinction between resource safety and memory safety. I think a lot of folks don't realize that a memory safety approach can help or hurt one's resource safety.

The only mainstream language today that really nails resource safety IMO is C++. Ironically, Rust takes a bit of a step backward on this dimension, e.g. an AVL tree will likely need to be backed by a Vec and be more prone to "leaking" nodes, since the Vec owns the node, not the parent. Now imagine a program has actual resources instead of an AVL tree having nodes, and one can see the problem. A logical owner often needs to give up ownership to the central collection, losing resource safety.

That could be fixed by blending borrowing with linear types just like Austral did. [0] The logical owner (parent in AVL tree example) could wrap the child ID in a linear type, and thus can't accidentally drop() it, and must consume it by removing its referred node. I sometimes call this pattern of linear types "Higher RAII" [1].

> [Regions] do not address concurrency and data race freedom.

This is true of today's languages, but I hope to soon have a prototype of immutably borrowing an entire region at once to allow multiple threads to access it without data races.

Mobile charging services are already a thing

Actually they come to work here on contract for jobs that white people refuse to do (like in agriculture, delivery). The EU offers good working conditions. It has mostly been a positive experience and I am going to treat these people with respect. Most of them I've had the pleasure with have been nice and polite, I've seen couriers from Asia put a lot of effort into their jobs and they've also raised awareness of cyclists on public roads. Mostly due to them I no longer get honked/yelled at when riding a bike on public roads.
With difficulty, but that's not really relevant to the issue here is it? Nobody is arguing that early humans couldn't have communicated.

> Tesla has already come out and said they could make cars that drive twice as far

You actually believed them? Tesla, that has a long track record of lying about what they can do, when they can deliver etc? That is facing major competition from every established car manufacturer who are all shipping vehicles with similar range to Tesla?

If they could release a car with double the distance/capacity they would. It would be a huge competitive advantage that no other manufacturer (except _possibly_ Toyota, if the article is to be believed) can match.
What a beautiful building, and beautifully presented in the article. I'm getting envious.

Well, the worst thing in my opinion is that (often for ideological reasons or egocentric positions) we don't accept or don't want to improve the existing tools or languages, but we create a new one ... so we had C, C++, Object Pascal and now we also have Python, PHP, Ruby, Go, Rust, Nim, Zig, D, Objective C, C#, Java, Kotlin, Haskell, Erlang, Ada, to name a few ... and this is the easy side ... Now there is the bandwagon of javascript frameworks: React, Vue, Svelte, Next, Nuxt and so on. It is impossible to keep up and it is also impossible that all these new technologies will be maintained in the long term. I remember the rise of Java years ago ... Java everywhere: Java applets on the web, Java on the desktop, Java as an application server and how it ended? Java is, in my opinion, one of the most convoluted and impenetrable languages ever created, but when you work alone as a freelancer, as in my case, you don't have the time and the resources to embrace and follow every new technology that is marketed as a revolution and the future, because at the end of the month you have to send the invoices to your clients to earn and live, and you have to have produced some results that work for them in the "real" world.
I have used Drupal for a few projects in the past: the main problem? Every major release that broke the API backwards compatibility and this means you have to refactor all your plugins and custom code, many times without any new direct benefit to the end user who, of course, was not available to spend money because some internals change every year and, for him, on the surface nothing changed.
It's commonplace for whoever gets a throne to inevitably squander it because they get complacent and proud, becoming top dog is essentially the grim reaper giving you written notice.

You get filled with rage because call center tech support is not for you. Call center support rarely is allowed to do anything you can't already do online and they are rarely able to tell you secret information that can't already be found online, and you have already tried online.

Call centers exist to serve the people who can't or won't RTFM online. You do RTFM online, so... rage.

AI-based support is likely to be the same: A chatbot version of the same old information you can already get on the FAQ and Troubleshooting section online. I don't know why we expect it will be different or suddenly unlock some Secret They Dont Want You To Know.

If someone invented a battery great in all dimensions except a low discharge rate, it would just be paired with a regular lithium battery to provide brief bursts of power for acceleration.
