In the case of EV pickups, it’s about towing. Towing a 3 ton trailer at highway speeds roughly triples the energy consumption of a pickup truck, so for 200 mile towing range you need 600 miles of unladen highway range.
It's amazing somebody would write, draft and plot so much on a 7th grade physics problem.
I agree that costs are overstated but it’s a significant downside to confuse the populace (and your customers) by being so misleading about the cost of education (their service).

I guess it’s kind of like enterprise pricing, in reverse. Rather than the rich outliers getting the extortionate pricing, it’s the average consumer who has to request the real price. That lack of transparency makes making a rational choice harder for the average person.
I haven’t read that book, so I will, but that sounds like it would only be true if you don’t modify the code repeatedly.
If you're willing to carry around a second monitor and an eGPU, what's the point of even having a laptop as part of that setup?

For example, consider a small form factor desktop in a case like this one in the DAN C4-SFX: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiCwDRzLHDk

What percentage of extra weight/space is this compared to carrying a laptop, eGPU, and second monitor? Could you not just carry two larger sized portable displays and the ITX desktop system and have the same outcome (but with better modularity and price/performance value)?

In my opinion, most people who want portable gaming are fine with buying a typical gaming laptop which they'll probably get many years of above-console quality gaming out of. That laptop-wattage 4080 you mentioned is more than good enough for playing literally any game. The people who feel like "as long as it fits in a duffel bag it's portable" and want the most performance possible should probably skip the eGPU and just travel with an ITX build desktop PC.

In other words, an eGPU fits in a weird middle zone between those two solutions that doesn't make a lot of sense. It's saving you a very slight amount of kit over just carrying a desktop around with you, and it's the most costly solution.
>> All attempts to track prices over time have some flaw.

The thing to compare tuition to is teacher pay. At today's tuition rates, 10 or less students would pay their professors salary. Average class sizes are much larger, so it's obvious the money is going somewhere else. Done. Forget CPI, the schools are pricing based on perceived value, not cost, and an unlimited supply of government backed loans.

This seems entirely reasonable. I'm not sure what you'd capture closer than 8 feet that you would not from farther away.

It was absolutely authoritarian response the Canadian govt took. Seizing the bank accounts of protesters and supporters? Abusing state of emergency provisions. Absolutely disgusting and horrifying. I mean your family member went a little overboard but the Freedom Convoy certainly didn't and stood up in the face of totalitarianism, when others cowered and yessired. So props to them.

Now reports and studies are coming out showing the Canadian govt and many other govts way over reacted to COVID.

yes, but say toyota would want to significantly ramp up ev production tomorrow, it is not clear if they will get the same pricing as tesla who already secured contracts before demand started growing.
Yeah this makes a lot of sense. Send one check/payment a month to avoid the burden of dozens or more of tiny donations to a non-profit.

Thanks, do you know if it's a good idea to use JetStream's KV or Object stores to implement a join? I'm thinking of "fan-in", where multiple streams carrying different pieces of data about the same object all meet in the same place, and the output is a unified object carrying all those bits of data. Seems the store could be used by the joining consumer to hold onto the various pieces of data related to an object until it has the full set, then emit the object into the next stream?

In Rust it would catch the same kinds of buffer overflows and UAFs, but these rarely sneak past the compiler.

However, it's handy for testing Rust wrappers for C libraries, because the FFI/ABI boundary is fragile and inherently unsafe.

'... lets you store store hydrogen for long periods of time' is not as easy as you suggest. It's well known that hydrogen makes most (possibly all) metals become brittle over time. Hydrogen also leaks easily through metals because the atoms are so small. Consequently very expensive tanks are require to '..store hydrogen for long periods of time...'. It's a near certainty that storing energy for long periods is more effectively done with Megapacks of batteries. A little googling will show that Tesla (and others) are now making a booming business in this technology whereas, to my knowledge, not one substantive hydrogen storage plant has been built to date, because of the problems stated above.

No, it isn't "free" - and those who actually make the money to support the unlimited taxation that pay for the "free" stuff are actively leaving the tax farm that is California.
The answer is yes, obviously, due to the Curry-Howard isomorphism. Likewise static type checking obviates unit testing. Granted, most static type systems aren’t Turing complete so there are some assertions that can’t be made at the type level that can be made at the unit test level, however there are absolutely a handful of languages with type systems that are. Indeed, any language with first-class functions can implement runtime type checking via higher-order predicates and thus obviate the need for unit tests. Is this news?

The problem is that you flexing your "no" muscles doesn't hurt the business. That's the nefariousness of tipping. If you say "no", it means it hurts the employees who resent you, rather than the business owner.

The only way to hurt the business owner, would be to stop buying their products. Which is much more correct than not tipping.
The downside is increased short-term dev time and code, and thus increasing rigidity of the code. In most cases this tradeoff is still worth it, but sometimes speed and flexibility is a higher priority, hence why I prefer opt-in

> Was it given a T that happened to be None, or was it not given a T?

Hmm. It _feels_ like a function shouldn't ever need to differentiate between "what the caller thinks it has" (that is - being passed a "T-which-is-None" should have the same significance as being passed a "None"), but I'm not confident claiming that would ever be the case.
I'm all for making education more accessible, but why does it have to be one extreme or the other (free or tuition) - if taxpayers are making education free, can't we levy a requirement for the graduate to at least volunteer Peace Corps style? Perhaps the term of volunteering could be inversely proportional to their grade such that someone who drops out early has to volunteer for a longer period of time.
You can't say that some outcomes are zero sum and other outcomes are not. By the very fact that there are different possible outcomes proves it is not a zero sum game.

> Imagine startup fails or is acquired at decreased valuation: will be it zero sum or not?

It's not zero sum, the total sum changed over time as the company lost value. Non zero sum doesn't mean "value only goes up"

> Percentage wise everybody wins, both Labor and Capital (so called not zero sum game), in absolute terms however the distribution tells a different story.

Thank you for conceding my point. It is a non zero sum game. There's an argument to be made about that employees are not given their fair share of RSUs or options, but that is a wholly separate argument/debate and you weaken your point by trying to say it's a zero sum game.

I just want to play devils advocate on the cost :
How would be paying people minimum wage to batch cook food from scratch with local produce be more expensive ?

We did that for centuries without conserve, fridge and NPK to grow our food.

We now have access to cheap energy ( historically speaking ) and a variety of preservation methods.
That should be considerably easier.

( and in fact i think it is, I’m in Quebec now, public hospitals switched to cook all their food on the same budget as previously frozen crap. A lot of French municipality are doing the same. Basically you have to pay the yearly salary of à cook, some gardener and a CPA to handle what can’t be grow ( 50% )

A frozen hotdog is pretty expensive for what it really is.

Question : how would be our Republicans friends do lunch for schools? Every kids bring a box ?
Yet another example of why the uniquely American institution that is the fractal of hyper-local jurisdictions is harmful. Education should be run by the state, like it is in normal countries.
The kids who don't graduate basically have just stopped showing up.

If you attend school and turn in your assignments, regardless of how poorly you do, you will graduate from a modern US highschool.
Federal loan programs (subsidized, unsubsidized and direct PLUS loans) still means that the average student is able to borrow a substantial amount of money without really considering their eventual ability to repay. True, it's not "limitless", but I think that's fair use of hyperbole.
<If circumstances change due to events out of your control, then there are solutions for that.>
There literally are no good solutions to that. I went through the whole rigmarole of getting a schengen visa for a specific week and then had to postpone my trip by a week due to change in business plans. The 'solution' was to get a second schengen visa for that second week, by submitting the same documents again and paying the same fee again. Which involves showing up at a consulate in-person. Which are not in every city. (source: https://manila.diplo.de/ph-en/service/visa/faq-gq-change-vis...)

Literally nothing would be different if they decided to grant you the visa for the duration you asked for but allowed you the flexibility to make that trip within a time window. You would still ensure I'm in EU for a limited time, but allowed some flexibility.

Secondly, none of the measures like asking me to show booked hotels or booked flights actually ensures I wont be overstaying. I could very well show you all of those and overstay if i wanted to do so illegally. All it does is forces people to shell out of a bunch of money even before they can be sure I'll be granted the visa.

I’m just not seeing it. What I do see is that a bunch of internet companies really don’t like the idea of being fined a lot of money every time their customer service AI makes a mistake when categorizing a complaint about drugs, because they know their customer service AI is garbage.

If their goal is to exclude the brightest minds they're doing a shit job.

If anything, bright minds on scholarships are diluted with sportsmen and everyone and their dog on student loans.
Yes, more Americans are getting degrees now than in previous generations. However, if the cost of getting a college education continues to grow and if it becomes increasingly difficult to get a college education without taking on crippling levels of debt, then more people will choose not to go to college in order to avoid heavy debt burdens. This will mean fewer college-educated individuals.

The worst case scenario is that we return to the pre-GI Bill status quo, where generally only those from wealthy families could afford a college education unless they won scholarship money. There was a period from the late 1940s until roughly the 1980s or 1990s when college opportunities were extended to the middle class and the poor through the expansion of public university systems that offered low (or even no) tuition, extended merit- and need-based scholarships that are funded publicly and privately, and student loans. Tuition and other expenses were low enough to where it was possible for many students to cover some or all of these expenses by working a part-time job during the school year and/or by working full time in the summer, and for those who needed to take out student loans, debt levels were not crippling. But in the past few decades, the cost of college has risen to levels where working part-time during the school year and full-time during summers just doesn’t cover costs like it used to, and where people are graduating with increasingly burdensome student debt loads. The high cost of housing isn’t helping matters.

I see a few potential solutions:

- Price caps imposed by the federal government as a condition for accepting federal student aid, though this could mean cuts to services.

- Upstart colleges and universities forming that offer a reduced-cost college experience by being “no frills” and focusing on teaching without offering the wide array of services that even the most modest universities offer (e.g., no career centers, no well-equipped fitness centers, no luxury dorms, no on-campus health centers, etc.). However, some of these services may be mandated as part of accreditation standards, though I don’t know much about this.

- A concentrated effort to improve the nation’s K-12 education so that way high school graduates are equipped to perform a wide array of jobs that don’t require higher education, along with an effort by Corporate America to hire high school graduates for jobs that truly don’t require a university education.
Rust impl of r/place with IPv6
Even if teachers have (which I'm not convinced of to begin with), Universities and land haven't. Its no secret that we've had an overpopulation crisis for the past few decades as is, so We haven't fully solved that issue as of now.

And I'm equally unsure if taxes have tripled, between increasing poverty on the bottom and more and more tax evasion on top.
It's surprising, but tuition is only half the story. The cost of everything else for students is going up quickly, including room and board, food, and textbooks. Textbooks particularly have risen much faster than the rate of inflation over the last thirty years. Meanwhile, the wages paid by assistantships and work study programs have barely budged.
> "social democrat" - are you sure?

Pretty sure, yes. Why do you doubt it?

> some services are social goods and should be treated as such

I'm not disputing that. I'm just taking issue with the marketing strategy. I don't like selling it as "free education" because that's a lie, and I don't like lying because it catches up with you eventually. I think it should be called what it is: government-subsidized education. (I also think it should be means-tested. I see no reason for society to pick up the tab for rich people's kids.)
Right, I assumed it was the same principle by which UK, having issued the first postage stamps, is the only country that doesn't say the country name on the stamp.

You know you can wash your hands after right:) I get that lots of people use bidets but personally I find them confusing and gross. In any shared setting you've got a bunch of other people's ass water that's been sprayed around, plus a nozzle that gets God knows what sprayed on it, and even on my own I'd have no idea how to properly contain the water and get it to do what I want. Obviously there's a solution to that, but practically I don't see TP as an inferior alternative. Just my feelings as an ignorant westerner that's seen a lot of bidets and said no thanks.
It's not that cheap over here, they have a budget menu but you can get a cheaper 'big' burger at a local Independent restaurant that is likely to be much better.

For me what makes it popular is the consistency. It's something you eat when you don't want to explore some amazing local cuisine that you may either like or dislike. You just want to get something known.

McDonald's is never amazing but once you've had it you know what every next time is going to be like. And mediocre is better than bad. Also, they really have the fast in fast food licked.
Because honestly the syntax is kinda the same and even the points are similar: performance and safety. All problems that rust already solved. Plus Rust has a HUGE ecosystem in rapid growth, and it is quickly reaching C/C++ levels.

Of course! Basically everything is paid by somebody (TANSTAAFL). Nobody thinks that free education is magically free, everybody understands that it's paid by taxes/government/society.

OTOH, it is a much cooler slogan than 'education paid by society at large :)

This is really the unfortunate truth. >90% of global ISP's not only collect but also sell netflow metadata commercially. Nanosecond timestamps, packet sizes, source IPs, destination IP's. Doesn't matter what VPN provider you use, whether you're using Tor, how many residential proxies you're routing through via a complex proxychains config... commercial entities can correlate virtually all of it.

Team Cymru is one such buyer of bulk netflow metadata from ISP's (and their upstream providers) around the globe, who do all of the correlation work on their side, and then sell it, under product names like Pure Signal Recon (formerly Augury)... including to law enforcement agencies and the US military...

There are also no laws dictating that ISP's must disclose whether or not they are selling that information, and they have no commercial incentive to choose to honestly disclose that they do.

If your adversary is NSA/FBI/US Army, or any other deep-pocketed nation-state-level adversaries who Team Cymru is willing to sell to, the safest assumption is that there is absolutely nothing you can do to obscure the origin of your traffic with 100% certainty.
