It's pretty standard price discrimination - think of it like a supermarket offering a coupon. You can get the same bottle of ketchup for full price or 20% off, but you have to invest some time and effort to find, clip, and bring the coupon for the discount.

If there's someone out there who's considering another car that's a bit cheaper but would be willing to pay for a model X at this $10k-discounted price, they're getting a sale that they otherwise wouldn't get (albeit with lower margins). Meanwhile, people who aren't price sensitive will probably just buy the regular-priced one. They're presumably working on the assumption that profit from additional sales to people who would otherwise go with something else will outweigh any cannibalization of people who would pay for the higher-priced one taking the discounted one instead.
In most European countries you are allowed to return defective products without the original packaging and used. You just can't return items that way only because you didn't like them.
> Separated from impurities, LK-99 is not a superconductor, but an insulator with a resistance in the millions of ohms — too high to run a standard conductivity test.

Not quite a superinsulator, but ironic.

Maybe Tesla is planning on selling them or a future owner this extra capacity at Some point. In that case it might make business sence to include the extra capacity.
That's not trivial, because if it's known to be impure then you expect some resistance in your measurement, you already know it won't be 0R. And if you think it is pure and superconducting then how low does your test equipment go anyway?

I'm not an expert in the field at all, but aiui that's why they would have been looking at what seem like roundabout tests etc. that don't seem like they're actually addressing what's interesting.
For anyone else reading, this comparison rings false and disingenuous.

Tesla has been instrumental in the transition towards electric vehicles, challenging traditional automakers to innovate and adapt to emerging technologies. This shift has the potential to reduce emissions and promote a more sustainable transportation future.

In contrast, Exxon has entrenched the use of oil on a global scale. The company is part of a collection of organizations that have prioritized short-term profits over long-term environmental sustainability. The consequences of these decisions are evident in the ongoing climate crisis, impacting ecosystems and communities worldwide.

While it is essential to critically examine all corporate actions, the differences in the operational ethos and long-term impacts of these two entities should not be overlooked. Tesla's initiatives aim at a cleaner future, whereas Exxon's history is closely linked to environmental degradation and harm.

While the accusations of intense work environment may be valid and should be rectified, the overall impact and method of financial profit are radically different than traditional orgs. There is a reason people are willing to be abused like this at Tesla; they are contributing towards a future worth living in.

For the record, I am not rich and drive a Tesla, because I witnessed what it takes in Iraq to acquire the oil used in vehicles actively contributing to the destruction of this world. Sending the poor off to die for profits of the rich while simultaneously destroying a world is not something I can support, and a Tesla was the only game in town when I purchased mine. It was the only option to clean off the stain from the rivers of blood of oil. While I witness countless people drive around in $70,000+ trucks, I have no regrets with putting 200,000 miles on my Tesla to contribute towards the end of the age of oil / death.

That old comfortingly-simple explanation is feeling more and more outdated each year.
The reason cement is a major contributor to CO2 emissions is because of how much cement we produce. I don't know the lifetime or effectiveness of this catalyst, but typically you only need a tiny amount of catalyst to start a reaction and the catalyst material can be used over and over for a long time.

Exactly. This is id always a pitfall when benchmarking LLM based techniques. The enwiki8 dataset they use, for example, is for sure in the training data.

To know how the method performs on novel data, the authors have to come up with entirely new datasets, since anything already existing must be assumed probably contaminated.

Can't say I've every used esbuild for watching, mostly because if I'm running in dev mode, I'm going to load "my files", not a bundle. The bundle is only for final delivery, so it needs to pass tests, but that's a precommit step, not a continuous development process.
I'm not denying that this kind of job is enjoyable, compared to the factory jobs I had as a student.

From my perspective, "almost never" and "won't actually happen" aren't that different. Both indicate that the probability of success is very low. It seems to be, if the probability is already really low, is not worth extending effort maintaining it.

I only use 20% of my battery capacity on a typical day, should there be a regulation against my usage since you claim I am somehow being ripped off by not using 100% of available capacity?
If I paid for it and it's in my possession, I own it and will do what I like with it including rooting the software. If that's not possible I won't buy it. In any case I'll always advocate to others not to give money to companies that behave in unethical, rent seeking ways that hobble your rights as a consumer.
I think people are missing this:

> We know that enterprises and education networks have unique needs. These features can be turned on early, customized, or turned off entirely via the HttpsOnlyMode, HttpsUpgradesEnabled, HttpAllowlist, and InsecureContentAllowedForUrls policies.

Also a lot of people are talking about internally hosted sites and acting like now you'll have to go pay a CA or something. That is not the case.

The worst case scenario is that your internal site will require a click through. If you want to avoid that just issue a certificate yourself for it, either via IP (if Chrome will support that?) or via a domain that you resolve via your router. Or if you control the browser, just... turn this off.
I really thought Biden was the wrong guy for the job, with his old-school style of sitting down at the table and negotiating it out being rather poorly suited for the hyper-partisan world of today. He made me look pretty dumb there, and I couldn't be happier about it. Amazing to see that for all the Republican talk of bringing manufacturing back to the US, a Democrat's the one who actually got that done.
We are all sheeple.
I rather meant irregular with regards to Debian Sid not Debian in general.

Arch only has rolling release mode so everyone is using the latest (thus any potential issue in Arch will affect bigger % of Arch users) while Debian has stable and testing and I was wondering if that'd make Sid less stable for practical use (since "it's not stable").

I don't want to start a distro war here, just wondering about some anecdata of actual distro users.

It's about $100/month in additional loan payments, with 10% down and a market rate loan.
Will that make a difference? Eh, unknown, likely not.

This does make sense however, if the range of the car can later be upgraded, and, it still uses the entire battery, and just cuts out at a higher % charge than the full range battery would as that'll make it last even longer.

Also, many people are surprised to know that even a full range tesla does not use 100% of their pack capacity. It always leaves some in reserve for the sake of prolonging battery life, so this move really isn't too strange, and the benefit of manufacturing a single battery pack likely drives costs down more than having to manufacture bespoke battery packs for each and every variation.
Funnily enough, some companies managed to solve the router problem. The Unifi Dream Machine is perfectly first-time configurable from a mobile app. Simpler routers don't really need any configuration these days and most people get routers from their provider anyway, whether they like it or not.

When talking about smart home devices, much of these are configured via their own apps, it's not like you are accessing a web interface much. If you are... well, there have been a number of remote code executions in these, so I'm not sure that bypassing a certificate warning is the biggest problem here.

Generally, I believe if someone can't set up a certificate then they don't have any business running web services for other people. The big problem is that it's not trivial for a browser to decide what's on "the local network" and what isn't.
Debian marks three decades as 'Universal Operating System'
I like the idea, but I'd be skeptical that it's practical for very small companies.

That doesn't let them off the hook, but all that process overhead can be a killer.

I worked for a company that was PCI DSS, and it often made it impossible to get any work done (to be fair, it had more to do with how they implemented it, than the standard, itself).

But I agree that security needs to be Job One for everyone, regardless of size.
That's the opposite of a democracy, that's a rule of money. One dollar, one vote is about the furthest you can get from 'democratic influence'.

A system of oligarchic patronage would also have the properties you describe, and I cannot seriously call that one a democracy, either.
ktor is best fit for Kotlin applications. But, much like Play Framework - you can use it with just about any (or any?) JVM language.

With that said, Spring Boot will be vastly more mature, have a lot more resources available, bigger community, etc. There's also tons of 3rd party libraries that have support for spring and/or spring boot out of the box - such as resiliance4j, openapi-generators, etc.

With that said, Spring/Boot's Kotlin support is really good. The team has clearly put a lot of effort into making Kotlin a first-class language within the Spring ecosystem.

For backend work, Kotlin + Spring Boot is amazing.
Sure, as geeks we're all going to click though. But 99% of people aren't going to. So that makes hosting a visitable website pretty hard.
I see it as much more, many things can be stripped out altogether. Client-side state management. Client-side input validation. Fallbacks for when data hasn't been loaded yet. Less async-based code, less coordination-required and event-driven code (this stuff happens but much easier and often code-free with HTMX).

Its not a fit for every site or use case but more than any other front-end tool or library or framework, it has enabled me to actually realize the UI concepts in my head to the actual screen, and usually a lot quicker than I'd expect.
Much more complicated is making policy because of climate change that is hardly defined precedent anyway. It's not priority for some.

> If something can levitate without being a superconductor it is already useful for a LOT of things.

It is not that useful. Electromagnets are used when we need something like that at scale, such as in maglev trains. Permanent magnets have their uses, but we have plenty of others that are as strong as this, and plenty of others that are much stronger than this. I suppose we will investigate it’s properties and we might find something interesting, but almost certainly not because of its magnetic properties.
If you're the CCCP, I think you do both, especially if Americans will just install the malware for you, doubly especially if they'll actively fight their own government when it tries to warn them about the risks.

Basically the hourly wage for tipped workers can be (and almost always is) below the minimum wage but if they don't hit the minimum wage in tips, then the remainder must be paid directly as a wage by the employer.

So if you earn $5/hr and minimum wage is $10/hr, you are guaranteed $10/hr but if you are receiving tips then the remaining $5 comes from your tips. If you do not, the remaining $5 comes from your employer.

However, a lot of tipped workers earn well over the minimum wage when you include tips. So if the proposal is: "let's get rid of tips and then you can get minimum wage," that's obviously not desirable. What would be more palatable is getting rid of tips and raising the minimum wage closer to what they earn with tips, which is really more a problem with the abysmal minimum wage than it is with tipping per se.
Ya but that’s not new. People started getting really upset when they offered a subscription option in addition to the one time purchase.

I don’t generally like subscriptions on hardware features, I wouldn’t get one and I worry about what they’ll do in the future if this test goes well. But the “hardware I own” is not any more restricted than it was before they started the subscription option.

It seems like once a government employee attains a certain rank they create a set of alt email and social accounts to conduct off the record business, so two phones is required.

Maybe phones should have a hypervisor and multiple VMs (or VPs?) to support this without having to cart around additional hardware.
I don't think that analogy holds. If my special hammer let's you go 10x as fast as a regular one, but you need to wear special gloves because otherwise it'll cause blisters, I think I still made a good hammer, just wear the gloves!
They sell more cars when they are cheaper. The more they sell, the cheaper each car is to make, because the very high fixed costs of the plant are amortized over more units.

The first car out of the factory cost billions to make. The next one a bit less, and so on.
It also sometimes works out in your favor, especially for VW, since theres Audi and Porsche parts you can just slap on your GTI.

Yes. The sidewall only accounts for a specific section of the side of the tire. You're excluding the portion which has to mate with the outer diameter of the barrel of wheel, as well as the entire outer tread. There's a LOT of material there in those two parts that aren't, "sidewall", nor accounted for in the size code.

For example, I have 35mm sidewall sports car tires on 20" (only wheel offered by the manufacturer) diameter wheels. That would be less than 23" if we calculated as you did. The actual total diameter of an inflated tire though is ~27" (26.947") per the tire manufacturer (Michelin).

I confirmed my assertion that it's 35s by running it through a tire diameter calculator (I do track days), and looking at outer tire diameters for tires for 23" wheels as a sanity check. Moreover, several media outlets (Autopian - partly run by a Jeep fanatic - The Drive, others) agree with me -- they are indeed 35".

---

To be fair, for off-road tires, they're usually coded different. For example, a Hummer H1 which indeed has a 37" outer diameter tire, is coded as 37X12.5-16.5. But the Escalade IQs tires are coded as normal passenger tires, or 275/50R24.
There's something I like to tell people: "You don't need math to make a good model, but you need math to know why your model is wrong." All models are wrong, and actually one of the crucial points we're at is not enough concentration on how wrong our models are (or how wrong our evaluations are, which is also a type of model). I suggest also investing time in statistics, understanding higher dimensional spaces (topologically and statistically), and metric theory.

It is always a "stab-around in the dark" unfortunately, but the deeper your mathematical understanding is the brighter your candle burns to help you poke around. I think a lack of mathematical understanding has also made people misread Sutton as endorsing "scale is all you need" rather than "flexibility combined with scale has historically resulted in the largest gains." These things are very different.
I assume it can be hard to judge impact down the line. A lot of car manufacturers cut out physical buttons, which led for the current generation of horrible interfaces where everything is touch screen and you can’t even get a simple rotary knob for the volume.

My understanding is that this is now going back and car manufacturers are reverting this decision.

So yeah, why not spend the saved money on advertising? I don’t know the complexity of such decisions. There are some manufacturers that do take a stand not to cut as many corners. Over time they can become known for their design. Apple (at least until the mid 2010s) I’d say was one such company.

By the way, as was pointed out, £700k seems negligible to companies that size for something that might potentially torpedo a car if enough people hate that part and refuse to buy it based on those grounds. But I’m not an expert.
Manufacturing one thing is always cheaper than manufacturing a dozen things.

In this case, it's likely cheaper to make 1 battery and use it everywhere than it is to save a little on cells but have to manufacture a dozen or so bespoke batteries for all of their offerings.
Maglev trains do not use diamagnetism or this kind of permanent magnets. They use electromagnets and sometimes much stronger rare-earth magnets, which are much more convenient and effective. Some of them do use superconductors, though, AFAIK.
But if you don't want that to happen, you can just pay for the full-priced version. Why is it worse for the consumer to have both of those options, as opposed to only the option where they can pay full price and not have the capabilities restricted?
Well, maybe this is the beginning of another cold fusion story.

Snob comment claiming an inside knowledge and yet refusing to provide any pointers or logical conclusion chains.
The answers so far tend to be either: yes, it’s very easy. Just follow a boot camp or books, transition at work by working close to a DS/ML team, etc., or no, you need lots of background knowledge, track record of publications, etc.

I think the problem seems to be that there’s not a clear need for engineers with lower levels of expertise in some of the fields; that is people with less than an MS degree in that specific ML sub field.

If the field transcends for long enough, and urgent demand becomes so mainstream, then I imagine hiring managers will have to invest more resources in hiring people with less experience and training them in the job. Similar to how developers are hired fresh out of short boot camps these days.

Therefore the easiest way to transition would be by acquiring practical an theoretical knowledge using the strategies given in the other answers and then applying to ML teams where there’s enough demand for them to want to train you in the job. Of course that’s easier said than done. It might be interesting to hear some thoughts on whether this is already happening in certain fields.
For additional context, the reason for this is that LFP cells have a much flatter voltage curve than other chemistries [1], so the BMS is forced to guess at the state of charge by tracking how much current has gone in/out of the battery, which is subject to drift.

> You don't have a secure network if you don't know what time it is

Yes, that's a very good reason not to trust the network to tell you what time it is.

Unfortunately, Windows, because it doesn't trust the network in the broad sense, relies on specific and known-to-be-unreliable SSL handshake data on the network to reset the clock.
