Fascinating article, didn't know skip lagging was a thing or that it is illegal. It definitely shouldn't be, just seems to be government protecting entrenched corporate interests at the cost of the populace. aka par for the course.
it's somewhat scriptable, and it keeps its own history; i usually use it interactively to get better tab-completion. that also makes search with ^r provide more relevant search hits

as an example of scriptability, i just added this function to ~/.units

# note that theta is the angle from the central axis of the cone to its side
conesolidangle(theta) units=[radian;sr] range=[0,) 2 pi (1 - cos(theta)) sr ; \
acos(1 - conesolidangle/sr/2/pi)

(sadly it is not smart enough to figure out the inverse formula itself, even in a simple acyclic case like this)

with this i can calculate, for example, the convergence angle required for concentrated sunlight to melt iron (asymptotically, assuming no heat losses to conduction or convection)

You have: 2 ~conesolidangle(conesolidangle(asin(sunradius/sundist)) tempC(1538)**4 stefanboltzmann / (1000W/m2))
You want: dms
13 deg + 10 arcmin + 34.428619 arcsec

it would be highly desirable to have conditionals and loops, of course, or even numpy-style vectors with broadcasting, as well as either functions of more than one argument or higher-order functions, and it doesn't have any of those

I deal with forensics and have incidental contact with similar; it rubs off on you. Even my own post history reflects a similar personality change over time; I've been accused of being an unmedicated schizophrenic (by someone committing disability fraud of all things). You stop sleeping, knowing what other people are capable of doing, concealing, and actively thinking about (especially when it's people you otherwise think you "know"). You come home progressively-broken from the shit you witness. Add to that a pregnant wife (the pinnacle of logic, reason and stability) and divorce is inevitable. It doesn't need a "complicated" relationship; when you look online, therapists will try to skim whatever they can off of you on the way out but /r/divorce is touted as the only solution to all marital problems-- especially "depressed spouse."

Where's your empathy? The company set up shop in Africa for the purpose of exploiting everybody willing to walk through its doors.

>Only Tesla does this.

The question is if it is illegal.

I agree that reporting a maximum possible range is meaningless and might be misleading. But it is still a truthful metric making it a quite dubious legal claim.

>other EV tries to give a realistic range based on the temperate and your driving habits.

What I saw was specifying the test conditions under which the range was achieved and including disclaimers about possible factors which can reduce the range. Certainly more honest.
There are a lot of real world caveats that go into those range estimates. I just took my long range Tesla Model Y with an advertised 326 mile range on a multi-day road trip and I was stopping to charge about every 100 miles. I would love to get something with 3x the advertised range.
Shouldn't Kagi (https://kagi.com) also be on that list?
On the topic of "weighting", Brave Goggles allow you to decide the weighting/ranking yourself, and is a great and under-used feature. The UI is a bit lacking (you have to create a goggle as a github gist/repo, publish it by submitting it to them, then bookmark an unweildy URL that's the link to your custom search engine), but the goggle syntax is pretty expressive and easy to use.
There are other providers that people can move to.
If you want the accurate range prediction, navigate to somewhere, the prediction is always spot on to the percent. Or view the energy screen, also extremely accurate. Just don't depend on the EPA range, go with what the car calculates when you navigate and you will never have an issue.
I think we need a new term for licenses like these that are not quite open source. Saying it is open source is deceptive and erodes the meaning of open source, but they are also more open/free than just "source available" where the source code is available but you have no rights to do anything with it (although I've seen cases where even that is advertised as "open source").

> Unfortunately the OP's attitude of solely antipathy towards the Muslim role in India's history...

You clearly did not understand the intention of what I posted (criticism of the anti-Western attitude at the British Library), instead insisting on a perceived antipathy towards Muslims. If you follow the link I added the first thing you see is an explanation of how the page is not too be taken as criticism of a single religion.

Read it again and you might understand what I wrote and why. Don't forget to read the last few paragraphs which give context to what is written.

All that said I do consider it important that this part of history is not shovelled under the carpet just to appease a vocal group, especially not seen in the context of the constant stream of criticism of Western colonialism which tries to portray this as a specifically Western vice

> Customers who don't pay extra are getting less service than they used to for the same money they used to pay

Sure, yeah. That's how price increases work. Nobody's arguing that it's not a price increase. But if your delivered pizza's costs are fuel+ingredients and the price of fuel goes up, well, the whole price goes up or you have to give on the amount of pizza. The price of the ingredients didn't go down, so yeah you're just going to have to pay more or get less pizza. Sorry.

You can quibble on the pizzeria's margin I guess: AWS could just eat the increased price themselves, and probably have been until now. But apparently they don't want to so they're raising the price to compensate in frankly the most reasonable way possible. AWS has insane pricing for many of its services, especially bandwidth, but this isn't one of them.
Most likely not, but I was replying to your comment pertaining to Australia.

If I recall the things I've read on this in the past, the horizontal scaling limitations of distributed Erlang are encountered around like 500 to 1,000 nodes? Which I have to imagine means the large, large majority of shops using Elixir and scaling horizontally will be just fine, as they are typically in the size of 2 - 10, or maybe 20 nodes.
Definitely sophisticated, but something console hackers have been doing for quite some time now including the boot flow. I'm wondering if a Tesla vehicle/computer is more sophisticated than say a PS5?
> I wrote a script to submit thousands of random codes to the website, and subsequently someone from Coca-Cola NZ called my home.

Much less interesting than it sounds: I was downloading satellite data from NASA, the increased bandwidth use worried the sysadmin in my research lab, and we each had landline phones on our desks because this was the mid-noughties.
Tesla's display shows the EPA range. While this is probably a bad idea and that's why no other manufacturer does it, "nobody else does it" is nothing but an informal standard and it seems a bit awkward to claim the approved government standard, in use at government agencies, is so obviously wrong that it constitutes fraud.
100% code coverage doesn't guarantee there are no bugs, but less than 100% code coverage does mean that there is code that you definitely aren't testing.

To put it another way, code coverage isn't a direct measure of how good your testing is, but it is still a useful metric to try and improve.

In most cases 100% is too hardcore a target, but you should probably aim for at least 80%.
NAD+ is available in a supplement form very popular in longevity community.

IF/intermittent fasting induces autophagy. Also popular in longevity/health folks. Our diets are so poor, I wonder if the benefit comes from eating less or by sticking to a feeding window. But the evidence is for it. It can't hurt you as long as you meet your nutritional requirement during your feeding window.

>Limit foods high in saturated fats, added sugars, and processed carbs that can promote inflammation.
Most metabolic diseases first line of treatment is diet modification.

>cGAS/STING like quercetin, curcumin, green tea extract. However, speak to your doctor first.
Do talk to you doctor. Quercetin metabolism does interfere with hormone (I know in men) But it is inflammatory. Green tea extract could hurt kidney so be careful with the source.

>CoQ10, nicotinamide riboside, and alpha-lipoic acid
CoQ10 is a co-enzyme recommended for heart patients. In healthy adults it can't hurt. Alpha lipoic acid is an essential fatty acid. Salmon/tuna is rich in it or also available in supplement. Do take a quality source because most fatty acid supplement is rancid which can cause more harm than good

>Exercise regularly
makes sense right

>Practice stress reduction techniques like yoga and meditation which may decrease inflammatory genes.
stress produces cortisol. Chronic stress causes inflammation.

>Get sufficient sleep
Regardless of effect on longevity good sleep will just help you feel better

>sleep deprivation can increase inflammatory cytokines.
this is true

>Challenge your brain with cognitively stimulating activities
More of a thing for retirees. Thats why they do sudoku puzzles

>Quit smoking
That big "smoking kill" signs mandated by FDA is kind of for this reason. Damages the epithelium in your blood vessels and causes MI/stroke. Increases lung cancer. It doesn't apply to just tobacco but anything that can be smoked

This is not good. Some of the time stuff is relevant if you're digging deep into it, but it's more like "uncomfortable truths we ignore for sanity." They're mostly edge cases that are unreasonable or silly to address until it's a problem.

Just listing off "falsehoods" is not a good exercise. It's literally an endless list. Some sections have no explanation and you lose context on what it is you should be learning.

More than half of what I read should just be deleted. It's not a reminder, or a lesson to be learned, or actionable

> You’d be dealing with a power of such age and with such overwhelmingly strong and sticky ideological tentacles that it can’t be undone.

I always find silly the amount of ritual and ceremony around Kings, Popes, heads of state, and the like. It's so clearly this big theatrical production to try to convince everyone that these people aren't just frail, mediocre little humans whose backs hurt and whose farts stink. The vast majority of any "power" they have comes from people believing that they have that power, and the theatrics serve that purpose very well -- look at how deeply they've convinced you, for instance. They don't want to be hidden! If some small remnant of these formerly-powerful groups do take to the shadows, their power goes away, because nobody believes that they have it anymore. It'd be like talking about a secret group of celebrities -- it's an oxymoron.

Power does not grow as it ages. Old power is just diluted remnants of wistful theatrics that occasionally shits its pants.

That's another sad reality. It was true some 60 years ago. And that's the mindset the lion's share of congress has. Make minimum wage a living wage again and maybe people won't see it as hopeless to get a job.

Different vector indexing algorithms under the hood, with different tradeoffs.

In this case "hnsw" is the name of the algorithm. If you want to know more, just search "hnsw" and "ivfflat" to understand the differences.

tsvector is something else; it's not a numeric vector index, it's a different kind of data structure that stores the actual lexemes (keywords) with positions and weights to facilitate full text search (rather than using a text embedding model.)
Although even today I still have a "house phone", I haven't used a POTS land line in 15 years or more - I switched to VoIP long ago because of related nuisances.

The straw that broke the camel's back was that somebody had their fax machine to send something to a (wrong) number every night at 2am. The phone company said they had no way to just block that number for us, but that for abusive calls we could talk to the police. The police said they couldn't do anything because although it was an extreme nuisance, it didn't fit the legal definition of abusive. Since we were going to have to change our number because of this anyway, we decided to just move to a platform with which we really could manage blacklists and such.

A prior experience had a debt collection agency calling us a couple of times a week, asking for some guy we never heard of. Each time we'd tell them that this was a wrong number, but they'd just call back a couple days later anyway. I tried using logic: the person they were looking for apparently had a Florida address, while the number they were calling at was a NJ number (back when you could pretty definitively link phone numbers to geography). The guy calling us agreed that it didn't make sense, but that didn't matter. I finally told them that the guy was deceased, and oddly, they seemed to buy that.

Anyway, my experience suggests that the demise of land lines has been not just because of the nuisance itself, but also because the technology and regulatory situation didn't allow people any effective way to deal with it.

Makes me wonder what that will eventually mean to email, SMS, etc., if anything.

EDIT: my current solution for spam calls on our VoIP line is three-pronged.

1) Known abusers are blacklisted, never to be heard from again. I don't really use this, though, because they're probably just spoofing the number anyway.

2) Everybody on my contact list can freely ring our phone, no problem.

2) Otherwise, the call is intercepted by a voice response system. It just tells them that if they want to talk to us, to push "2". Bots never do that, so we're very nearly 100% free of spam calls.
No. CJ cases make the most common letters have larger compartments* (because you'll use more of those letters) and be easy to find. The QWERTY keyboard was designed to decrease typing speed to avoid jamming the mechanism.

*For lowercase letters only. All CJ capital compartments are the same size, in alphabetical order because capitals are much more rarely used.

Control of the judiciary and their training is a big one. How do you overturn the ideology of justice and power itself? It can’t really be done, because everyone in the system has sworn allegiance not to do so, and they apply cognitive dissonance to the very idea that the root of their authority can be undone. What I’m getting at is that it’s a power so old and embedded in the very fabric of the land it controls that it almost controls thought itself, controls the language and the meaning of language (legalese), prints the money and legitimises its use, allows concepts to become statutes or not. It’s like a web of embedded ideas concerning power and control in the areas where it operates - that’s what The Crown is, essentially, and it uses confusion and divide & rule tactics to hide in plain sight. What I’m saying sounds almost absurd but it’s kind of how it is. You’re dealing with the very idea that a whole territory can be “owned” by writing on dead paper, and everyone embedded in the system agreeing that’s how things are. In the case of Australia, these rules on dead paper were enforced over the living, non-contracting people already there. But the dead paper is backed with guns and extreme force, and makes for a neater world once it’s running.

Brit-ish means “men of the covenant/contract” in Hebrew - the covenant with God to go and conquer the world in His name and enforce it with the same kind of dead-paper laws as found in His book. This trumps living people just “on” the land. And as for the sea…
