Man. I love my Tesla (please car manufacturers hire good software engineers, pay them better and let them do their thing).

But screw that guy. I don't think we'll be buying another one.

It's time for a class action lawsuit and to be rid of him.
Very much so - China and India both get enormous amounts of coal from Anglo-Australian and Indian Coal companies that mine in Australia .. these same companies own or control many of the exporting thermal coal mines in the US via companies listed on the Toronto:TSX.

Another 'truth' about USofA coal exports is that they are largely divorced from the US political system; when Trump (? IIRC) boasted about reopening coal mines, etc he really didn't do anything.

The underlying cause was massive tropical storms and flooding in Australia resulting in (some) wet coal beds (open cut mines) and a switch by the parent companies to draw on US coal sources while their preferred fields dried out.
I don't share the popular anti-Medium sentiment. For many occasional bloggers, it makes sense; otherwise, they would post in the walled gardens of Facebook and LinkedIn, as thread-monsters on Twitter, or - not at all.

Still, for a large open-source project, there is no overhead in using a static site generator. And plenty of benefits.

The good news is that moving your stuff from Medium to such is easy. Up to you if you pick Jekyll, Gridsome, Gatsby, or something else. See (full disclaimer: my blog post) https://p.migdal.pl/blog/2022/12/new-blog-from-medium-to-gri....

The article ends:

> [one customer] ultimately concluded there is nothing wrong with his car. The problem, he said, was that Tesla is overstating its performance

As I read this, either his car was defective or he was lied to to convince him to make a $XX,000 purchase. It seems that Tesla should be facing some form of fraud-based lawsuit over the lies selling the car or treating it under warranty, right?
yeah an example of the scoped dom update feature. how are you going to do that in html? It says no javascript unless you want it, not no javascript.
Their VS Code demo question ("Do we use tabs or spaces?") is a clever one, but then it's just pulling from an answer on their Q&A site. Not particularly impressive in an AI sense.

The Copilot Chat beta is able to answer this question by itself in VS Code, though not in Visual Studio.
Even though I disagree, thanks to all of you for sharing your experiences!

Anyone building open source software in AI or Crypto?
We opened up applications for 100 Builders, a 4-week online program/hackathon for builders to collaborate on bold open source projects for AI (and crypto), organized by a small team and supported by amazing partners and sponsors.
It is 100% free to participate, light on time commitment, and 100% on builders' terms. Just a BIG build-that-thing energy between 100 projects that get in. I don't need to convince you about how important it is to have this new tech be built as open as possible, and we hope this will help with that!

We have a lot more to announce, including details about $20k+ (and counting) in sponsorship and prize money for participants. You can apply directly on the site https://100.builders/?ref=hn&code=Py8aPO - it takes 2 minutes.

Applications close on August 10th.

There is a little FAQ here: https://docs.100.builders/100-builders-qs-and-as

If you have any questions or feedback, let me know!
No, it’s all the same and should be extremely illegal (read felony with mandatory minimums approaching life without parole) as such behavior is antithetical to democracy.
Generally (and for the last 20 years or so), the excellent SomaFM[1]. Mostly DefCon and Groove Salad with some Synphaera[2], AAC streams all saved in a playlist in Strawberry, has been my regular goto.

Otherwise, I've been on a Synthwave/chillwave kick, since it reminds me of my younger years (80's/90's... rose-tinted glasses and all that). The Midnight; Brian Eno; Tycho; Tangerine Dream; etc... or whatever comes up on Tidal and Spotify.

My favorite though is Spotify's "Synthwave from Space" playlist[3] from aofd3. Otherwise, hard rock/metal, classical, ambient/"concentration" style playlists, etc... anything really, depending on what I'm doing. Sometimes just a local terrestrial radio station is good enough.

I think it's completely fair to criticize it. It's claiming to be "the" html framework, but then you have sveltekit and Astro which are far more HTML friendly and easier to get started on for non JS devs.

This just comes off as a ploy to hijack the meaning of HTML.

Waymo is an US company and public transport is not really a thing in the US, so they'd probably struggle to find funding for that.

The US Federal Government doesn't devolve powers, the States have thier own powers (the part of the constitution that says any power not reserved for the Federal is for the states). But yes, technically it is the interstate commerce provision, and various rulings that have broadened what that means. State vs Federal power is complex and still a bit disputed.
Felt like they were trying to do the Remix front page thing, but Remix does it right, it shows you why you want to use it as you scroll down, though to be fair, I don't know why websites that do that, don't just have a video instead. Give me a traditional website with scrolling that feels familiar and a video. I'll click play.
You got a lot of correct but verbose responses. Put in layman's terms you had to run 1 + foo(20) again. If 1 + foo(20) were replaced by a complex and long winded function you would have lost all of that state and needed to run it all again. What if 1 + foo(20) had to read several TB of data in a distributed manner. You would have to do that all again.

There are ways around this and of course you could probably develop your own crash loop system in python but in lisp you simply continue where it failed. It's already there.

You mention doing things in Jupyter and ETLs which are often long running. This could be hugely beneficial to you.
Decades is a long time, by then the world will be much different. You could extend this argument to any advancement: "people only talk about the benefits of agriculture. Nobody talks about how once we go from hunter-gatherers to large groups, we'll discover industrialization and cause large-scale climate change."

Though we do need to prepare for AI replacement, I think we'll be much more successful pushing for things like UBI than pushing against things like AI assistants.

> Previously the vast majority of information was obtained with people's names attached to them. All Stackoverflow answers have names attached to them, and articles on the internet too.

> Information sharing has always had two functions in human history: bonding humans together and trading useful information

I'm sorry but I disagree. When I see StackOverflow answers or random articles I rarely remember the associated name, unless they're especially notable (e.g. Eric Lippert). And I'm not sure about the vast majority, lots of Stack Overflow and Reddit answers are under pseudonyms.

I'm in academia. I believe that when people contribute to the pool of knowledge, the knowledge comes first and their credit comes second; not to be forgotten, but not something most people need to know. When applying for jobs and bragging to people I can show off that I discovered or invented X, but people learning or using X don't need to know my name.

I don't think most people asking technical questions are looking for "bonding", they're just looking for an answer to the question. I talk with colleagues about things like opinions and the latest hot topic, but AI isn't going to replace these discussions.
Cool link, thanks. And I wondered if that was possible in Portuguese, there was a Portuguese example :)
I actually read it this way too. My first reaction was "wait, what are all these other frameworks missing?"
What other definition of prehistory is there? It literally means before written records.

For example, 1788 is considered the end of prehistory in Australia:

Yes a separate problem.
The 25% total capacity (not demand) headline that you reference, was about the US targets for 2030 that China has already met and exceeded.

Once you add nuclear and hydro it's more than 50%.

> Non-fossil fuel power sources, such as wind and solar power, account for 50.9% of the country's total installed capacity, marking the early completion of a government target proposed in 2021, under which renewable capacity was planned to exceed fossil fuel capacity by 2025.

https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/chinas-installed-non...

There's still lots of distance to go (capacity isn't generation, electricity isn't all energy etc.) but China is doing roughly as well as the USA. The main difference is whether they use lots of fossil methane, or lots of coal, but that's more geographic based on resource availability than anything else.
> What can the average person do with program names, people involved and locations?

What the average person can do with this information is not the point as far as I can tell. This information is being shared with people who are not the average person, and who do have the ability to investigate further.
> raising gas taxes

The politicians have proven to not provide an effective front. This would be the preferred front if politicians really would enact taxes, however, history shows otherwise.
Wow, very unfortunate the core team has to wase so much time and money on frivolous claims. Shame on the guy causing all this pain and waste.

I use different browsers for different websites / web applications.
For bank or accounting, for example I use Firefox in a container.
I configured Firefox to clear everything on closing : cache, cookies, history.

I don't save the passwords in the browser. I keep them in Vaultwarden, installed locally on a miniserver.
Yet, now that stackoverflow is becoming increasingly hostile to their contributors, I think it would be a good moment to the Wikimedia folks to venture in this area.

>Got an iPhone or Android phone? Then you own a powerful platform tied into your financial life.

Own? It's more like you lease it.

Say for example such an 'everything app' were to exist. What would insulate it from API changes by Apple/Google intended to break core functionality? The fact that WeChat is available for iOS/Android is literally an exception to app store rules. It can only exist in a country where the government can coerce favorable conditions for it's existence.

My girlfriend has a rather uncommon name, but her FirstNameMiddleName@gmail.com gets emails meant for someone else rather frequently. Sometimes it’s even official PII or PHI. She’s tried to let people know but they’re surprisingly sometimes not all that receptive? So I think she ignores it now.

We should not pillory other countries, especially not coming from a First World perspective. However the First World had a head start, through various factors being colonialism and the industrial revolution. Putting the traditional Third World in a lesser position when it comes to ability to compete with First World countries.

The issue is, we cannot deride those who use coal to try to catch up, when that was the fuel that got many First World countries to the position they are in. The First World likes to be high and mighty in these terms, however not very often is it introspective enough to realise that the Third World simply cannot operate in the same way. China and India are in a different spot, however both were distinctly at a disadvantage in progression as a country until late in the 20th century.

All of this ultimately leads to a greater question, how does the planet intend to reduce demand on coal while also allowing countries reliant on it to grow? In Africa, there's various steps that need to be taken. In my opinion international debt cancellation, as debt structures that were put in place by the First World org's were and are predatory, and rely on First World demands to be met. Secondly, the big R world, reparations for colonialism and imperialism should be looked at. While these are predominantly monetary steps, these are the great blockers to progress. It is ingrained suppression of Third World countries that ties in to the fractured history the First world has with the Third. And similar steps should be taken with South American countries as a lot of their issues mirror African issues for similar reasons.

Point being it does matter what the First World does on its own part. As the First World's per capita consumption of energy far outweigh's its Third World counterparts. The effort need's to be increased through financial mechanisms to aid countries that aren't able to wean themselves off of coal dependency. India and China are interesting examples, but neither at their rate of growth have the ability to get off coal. India even less so than China, and there quite clearly isn't a global effort to help countries that are struggling with coal dependency.
> Also in general adopt policies, like free trade and free immigration

I’ve never heard of this. How would free immigration help climate change?
I have two Teslas. On both of them, I get close to the EPA range in city driving and lose 15%-20% on highway driving at 70-80 mph, on typical daytime temperatures for my area, which rarely drop below 40F in the winter or exceed 100F in the summer. On highways I always use autopilot, which keeps speed much more constant than I would -- it brakes and accelerates much less frequently. The estimates for battery use on trips are always accurate. I consider driving a high-risk chore, so I'm not an aggressive driver.

YMMV.
Well, as technology progresses, we will become even more tightly coupled than before. Not sure if we could measure that, but if there is a coupling factor F, then it's proportional to the level of advancement of our technology, and the square F^2 is proportional to the level of hurt that will ensue if it breaks down.

My ISP will tell them I spend most of my time connected to Mullvad VPN, and Mullvad will tell them they don't know anything about what any particular IP address was doing.

Having to give identity attestations either directly or proxied by a government server would make such anonymous browsing much more difficult, if not impossible.
I agree. I think they took an old design for the USB part of things and just swapped the connector too.
I'm not saying we shouldn't try. Far from it. But activism is not really the answer. We must focus on real science, slowly reduce unnecessary consumption because any energy and material and fabrication will pollute, test pilot programs, you know, practical things. Not screaming "JUST STOP OIL!" or even positive stuff like the article says.

I'm confident we'll get through this even if with scars. But it will be hard, it will take time, it will take scientists and engineers and it will take sacrifices. It will not take activism.
This might help but requires you do some cross referencing and math: https://ev-database.org/cheatsheet/range-electric-car

This is better as it shows the claimed range, and the actual range: https://insideevs.com/reviews/443791/ev-range-test-results/
You have it backwards. The car serves you. You should not have to serve the car (beyond universal, traditional things, like the need to maintain, insure, etc.).

It’s reasonable to ask for a range estimate that’s not naively optimistic.
This is the last thing we need, and Palantir is not a company I'd trust to have anywhere near it.

Reddit users see no irony in complaining about Reddit changes and policy on Reddit.

Reddit leadership won the API fight by threatening to remove mods. Then they brought back /r/place to distract users from all the changes.

Until users start leaving the platform Reddit will continue on its path of forcing everyone to use their app and looking at a near term IPO.

My point was, having an actual example of data in front of you, instead of only definition of the structure/schema/interface/type of the data could push people more towards relying on things specific to that example. Especially in dynamically typed languages, but also for things like trying to take the first element of a list that might be empty (in languages where that doesn't return an `Option`), etc.

And I wonder whether someone observed that in practice.

Emoji is not an additional complexity, it builds on top of the same primitives like Chinese characters and whatnot. Unless you claim supporting non-european languages is unnecessary, then emojis are a perfectly good “making use of” of unused regions.
I couldn’t care less what you think about me, but please stop equating the “Japanese people” with “grown men obsessing over anime girls”. That’s straight up racist, disrespectful and misinformed (through foreign Anime communities I assume).
I feel the same way. I started my career in the mid-00s in Enterprise software writing .NET. We used to have many conversations around modeling, patterns, testing, etc. I work at a Node shop now and none of that happens.

I am trying to introduce strong typing with typescript and aspects of functional programming but it is very slow-going...
Surely, they do. But they reserve that for stuff that's really way beyond the line. For everything that might be legitimate they leave it to the ranking algorithm to sort out and it's a game of cat and mouse.
I have a few of these rules

Interesting, can you share some other such rules?
Seems like it’s common across all EVs for the range to be inflated by around 20%, at least for freeway driving.

In a recent review, a Tesla did a slightly better job than most of the cars tested, as far as portion of stated range achieved.

It doesn't. The problem is you can't go in a shop and buy a Linux computer. They're just not there. Also, every school teaches students how to use Windows for some reason. This is a completely unfair competition.
We live in a society. If you want to build a company in international waters cut off from the rest of the world, by all means. I hear there was a nice anti-regulation company that has a boat they don't need anymore, so maybe you could take over the lease. There's a reason why we decided banks have to have be monitored and if they're insolvent they can be taken over, or why you have to IPO and provide a bunch of information to investors if you want to sell stock in your company. There's "private" transactions that create enough systemic risk so that we have to regulate them.
It's an MTBF like calculation: do you trust the well engineered one person company that has a well engineered solution with few moving parts over the much larger company that has far more moving parts and their probably less well engineered solution with far more moving parts?

I personally would go with the simpler solution because in my experience you need an awful lot of extra complexity before you get to the same level of reliability that you have with the simpler system. Most complexity is just making things worse.

You can see this clearly when it comes to clustering servers. A single server with a solid power supply and network hookup will be more reliable than any attempt at making that service redundant until you get to something like 5x more costly and complex. Then maybe you'll have the same MTBF as you had with the single server. Beyond that you can have actualy improvements. YMMV and you may be able to get better reliability at the same level of performance in some cases but on average it always first gets far more complex, costly and fragile before you see any real improvements.

I strongly believe that the best path to real reliability is simplicity (which is: as simple as possible) and good backups. For stuff that needs to be available 24x7 and 365 days per year this limits your choices in available technologies considerably.

Giving optimistic estimates based on generalized vehicle information, then giving more precise estimates after the 50% mark—and after having collected usage information based on the user’s actual environment—sounds to me like a decent algorithmic solution to a hard problem.

Yes, instead of npm they should have used hpm the html package manager.

Jokes aside, it's a full stack framework, you need some server-side language. It's the served html that is (optionally) javascript-free.
