China has a comparable oil consumption to the US and has almost gained 25% market share for BEV.
But also in the US electric cars sales are rising.

You are most likely thinking of the Gartner hype cycle, which is about visibility of topics. I think we reached the plateau of productivity by now. BEV cars also have their issues, but in many cases are the better pick over ICE cars.

A way more fitting graph to look at now are sigmoid functions, also known as sigmoid functions. They tend to model the technology adoption life cycle fairly well. Adoption in the beginning is fairly slow then speeding up just to slow down again until the technology is affordable and good enough to also handle special needs. We are currently in the phase of accelerating adoption that looks like exponential growth.

I downvoted you. I live in NZ. I immensely dislike the "x party in power that I don't vote for trashed the country" rhetoric. We wouldn't be in a substantially different position under a right wing government. You overestimate what a govt is actually able to change. Consider covid... the economic effects were going to happen regardless, and left and right governments in similar countries made similar choices. Personally I think the mistake here was not shutting the border 2 weeks earlier when we could have had no internal lockdown and no covid for 18 months, but a right wing govt would never have taken that decision.

In any case, NZ is not trashed. There are major housing related issues but those are 30 year trends because of the policies of both major parties.

I don't like Labour, although I prefer them to National. What do you think National are going to change in power? I'll tell you, they'll abandon not yet implemented policies, make minor tax tweaks and not give public workers a raise. Life will continue the same because no one in politics will try out large changes to actually tackle the problems we face due to fear of pissing off the electorate.

I see a lot of commenters pointing out that this includes legitimate forfeiture due to criminal activity.

That is certainly true. But how do you measure legitimate vs illegitimate taking of property?

With burglary, it is fairly trivial. But otherwise? I'm not aware of statistics breaking down the amount of money and assets that get taken without any charges.

In our area there is a somewhat new chain of clinics (ZoomCare) that has all of their prices listed on their website.

They have been SUPER awesome. I have had to play 0 games with their billing department and I think everyone should demand the same for all clinics.
Where I live we have the electricity bill system that kind of works that way.

The idea is that let us say the normal price of electricity would be e.g. 10c / kwH.
To incentivize people to use less electricity we charge 20c/ but the extra 10c go to the fund which at the end of the year is split evenly between all electricity consumers.

So basically everyone pays 20c x consumption -10c x (average consumption).
Does anyone know what S.R. Hadden has been up to lately? A new high-temperature superconductor seems like the perfect cover story for a fraud scheme around room temperature superconductors.
Right, but that was my point on the numbers. As a customer that has several hundred audio books due to Audible, yes, I know that the authors get a smaller cut of the sell than they do if I buy the audio book in a store. But their larger cut of my store purchases is effectively 0. Audible has grown the market to numbers that were basically pipe dreams of the past. To ignore that in the calculation is really dishonest.

I don't know if they are the best numbers, but https://wordsrated.com/audiobook-sales-statistics/ has some break downs. The digital market has clearly seen a shift in the last couple of decades. And it seems safe to say that it has driven a lot of the growth in publishing and other related metrics.

My assertion is that publishers used to give higher cuts to the authors because they didn't care about such a small portion of their sales. More, their long term investments in printing made it such that they couldn't scale out audio books nearly as effectively, so they had no incentive to build out that market.

Even dumber in this debate, the fact that Audible puts their files in DRM is almost certainly at the demands of the publishers. You can click through most publishers to see they still want to charge 25+ for audio books that you can get for 1 "credit" on Audible. Credits being about 11 bucks, and I get why publishers would want to keep those files restricted to try and discourage people from using Audible.
Although, that is also exactly what you’d say if you were trying to manipulate the listeners.
> what gave you the idea that you're entitled to consume for free content that other people payed to produce and host?

The fact that their HTTP server replied 200 OK. If they want to put up a paywall or use a different protocol they're totally free to do so, but permission was inherently granted by the act of serving the content.

Acting like anyone who views a webpage has any obligations regarding how they render or reproduce it is like putting a barbecue on the side of the road with a free sign on it after hiding a bill inside, then getting mad when you don't get paid. Trying to tack on riders that fundamentally alter the mechanics of the underlying protocol is fundamentally invalid.

ESG isn't about actual results, it's about controlling the culture.
Thanks for the thoughtful discourse. I do see your point. I also think that there are practical questions about whether, broadly speaking, police are not taking enough actions that they should be taking or whether they are taking too many actions that they shouldn’t be taking.

Although there are several highly publicized incidents in the latter category (and I wholeheartedly agree it should be illegal for police to racially discriminate or use unwarranted force), it’s also true that these days most people can’t walk a few blocks in San Francisco after dark without worrying about their safety. Both sides of the coin are problematic, both should be fixed.

These issues are challenging and too easily politicized; I think the country would be well served with less instinctual, black-and-white reactions and more balanced discourse.
Work is just a transactional relationship. I need money, they need workers, that's all there is to it. It ends if I find better money elsewhere, or they no longer need workers.
Institutionalized theft unimpeded by the government is the broader point.
They must be pissed that their ROI for their lobbying money is so low. Fingers crossed!
I don't get this. I find "passive" advertising like banners, mid-roll, etc so much easier to ignore/block/

The type of advertising that's invasive for me is the "sponsored content" or paid product placements, especially in movies. It feels like every big-budget movie I see these days is littered with "ads" for some car or electronics company. There's no way to block this, and sometimes its hard to tell if something is paid or just someones honest recommendation.

> People ask that right now, and adtech is one of the things that have killed it.

I don't think this is actually true. When I think about the old internet vs new internet, a lot of it is about people running their own blogs / websites vs. platforms. And I think most of that is not really about ad-tech at all, but about the mechanisms of content and audience discovery. But the fact remains that if you want to say... publish videos of some kind, you are likely to make much more on YouTube vs uploading them to your own website, and that's at least partially because Google is able to show effective ads.

> Target them based on the context in which the ads appear.

Possible, but in some cases significantly less effective. As I mentioned above, ad-tech comes with some very interesting progressive effects, where the people who spend the most money are the ones who end up paying the most in aggregate for content. An interesting example is luxury goods, which are both high-value and niche. If you run say... a news site, or something else that's general purpose, you probably don't want to be showing Rolex ads to everyone. But rich people still read news, and if you could target your Rolex ads to them, that basically subsidizes everyone else.

I would say any results that are already out are from people speedrunning production; give it another six or so days and there will be a ton of labs that have managed to produce various, better samples and will have performed decent experimentation on these.

> If a contractor takes your down payment and then never installs the toilet is that criminal theft?

To the extent that the funds were entrusted to the contractor on the premise they would be used to purchase third-party goods and services on your behalf, the crime would seem to me to be embezzlement, which is usually distinct from theft but often punished similarly and part of the broad family of property crimes. Advanced payment for services to be rendered, I’m less sure of fitting into that.

> If a contractor installs your toilet without advance payment and then you never pay her, is that criminal theft?

In California, the wage theft law applies to contract as well as W-2 employment.

Note that in either case, there may be a compensable civil wrong without the intent requirement for crime, even if the general scenario described can fit a crime.

90 days is a long time. Imagine a recent college graduate moving cross country to a new city in search of work. They are unlikely to have resources to live for 90 days if the cops seize all their cash.

The cops can get a warrant. If they can’t convince a judge then they don’t need to seize anything. The police serve us, not the other way around.

I started my move in November of 2018 according to my Fastmail billing history.

I've _still_ got a few places that insist sending mail to Gmail (mostly sites that don't let me switch email for some weird reason).

I got my own domain, set it up on Fastmail, imported all my old mails from Gmail and set up a permanent forward from Gmail to Fastmail.

Then I set up a filter on Fastmail that shows all mails that were sent to my Gmail address and slowly went through that list and switched from @gmail.com to my own domain.

Now I'm the customer for my email instead of the product and I 100% own my own domain so no single company can take it away.
I think they mean something like say, Lightspeed Magazine is a genre magazine, and the genre is scifi.

However, we seem to have saturated their database connections (friends don't let friends have connection pools without bounds/with the wrong bounds, especially not to serve static content), so I haven't read the article. [ETA: Did read it, am now positive.]

What if you remember your trauma but it doesn't effect you negatively and you are still easily addicted.

There are many ways to be addicted and not all of them are trauma related. Modern psychology relies heavily on diagnosing trauma, and connecting trauma to existing behavioral issues because it is useful.

I think that misses just how entrenched doping was. As mind blowing as it is, it is fairly safe to say that everyone that was making the leaderboards was likely cheating.
I see what you mean, you're probably right that it would help, but honestly I just don't think the people hitting it are reading it in the first place. It doesn't light up until they're at the intersection, at which point they're either very focused on the light or the traffic, and definitely not looking way above even the yellow bar. Most people seem to be driving rentals, and in their case they're just not thinking about the size of their vehicle, and the rest have gone under a thousand bridges that look to the unfocused eye just as tall, so they're not worried about it at all. What they really need is probably just something that hangs at that height in front of it so you can hear it bang off of your car with minimal damage before you actually hit the bridge, and push the intersection further away from the bridge so there's more time to look at the signs.

I've read that already (note: history is written by the victors) as well as a whole pile of other books on war (WWI, WWII) and ethics, rules of engagement and so on. My takeaway is that if you want to be able to take the moral high ground as a nation state you play by the rules even if that gives you a disadvantage on the off chance that you win the war. Because if you do you will end up with a more broken world than the one that you had before and now you have no tools to fix it without being labeled a hypocrite. This is all pretty complex stuff and not worthy of treatment by comment (books would be more appropriate) but that's how I feel about it and I don't think that it is going to be a trivial affair to move me from that position.

It also informed my stance on how I perceive war and my own possible role in it: I would definitely find myself mobilized (financially, personally) to help defend countries that are overrun by obvious aggressors, including my own but I would under no circumstance allow myself to be roped into a war of aggression up to the point where I would be happy to go to prison or worse if it came to it. This is not trivial stuff and I have so far been fortunate enough not to have seen this put to the test in a practical sense.

I know Dresden was not a purely civilian target, but civilians were fairly explicitly targeted, either that or you'd have to chalk that all up to extreme sloppiness, which is not a case that anybody credible has ever made.

I don't disagree—chargebacks can be abused by end-users, especially if you don't make it easy to get a refund or your communication is lacking. That being said, Stripe doesn't own any part of the process, we're an intermediary that communicates evidence and outcomes between a cardholder and their bank. The same painful fraudulent chargeback patterns exist with any PSP.

So, we make it as easy as possible to submit evidence. The cardholder's bank decides whether the chargeback is won in favor of the business or not. The card networks are aware that "friendly fraud" is increasing too, hence the introduction of Compelling Evidence 3.0 (more to come on this): https://support.stripe.com/questions/how-does-stripe-support....

Yes, and maybe, there's a lesson for you to take from this: such small things may accumulate into world overlordship of an evil corporation. Do you remember how Google Chrome gained marketshare over Internet Explorer? It was all minor annoyances with IE like slow startup, a single page crashing the whole browser, unmovable tabs, big download windows, having multiple search bars. That was it[1]! Chrome never promised "an entirely new web experience", but fixed all the minor annoyances that had lingered during IE's dominance and never been fixed.

So, guilt-tripping users into using Firefox is a terrible idea, and might actually backfire. This is an institutional crisis we've been experiencing by both Firefox and Google making bad product management decisions. Firefox has come a long way, and I applaud it for it, but it's not my fault that Firefox has been so behind in the race. Keep blaming people as much as you want, that's the truth.
