Since I worked at Google I can clarify.

There are far too many caste grifters in USA pushing an "agenda". Equality Labs for example is an Islamic Organization with a Christian Thenmouzi as its face who talks about "caste" but in reality is she is born to very rich doctor parents in central California. Most of these claims and propaganda is not just bogus but outright harmful for the very people they pretend to fight for.
It is nowhere near this large of a difference.
I had never heard of this site.
Now I am sad.
It seems useful.
I was not! Just checked it out, great to see other chess variants out there. This looks like a simple but fun ‘clear the board’ puzzle. Here are the main differences with echo chess as far as I can tell:

1) No echoing mechanism. In echo chess, if you capture a pawn, you become that pawn. That means the maze effectively changes at every capture. The post linked above has a thorough analysis (and visual examples) of the strategic implications and limitations of this simple twist, so I highly recommend checking it out.

2)Forced to capture at every move. Solitaire chess seems to require a capture at every move. While that may appear to be a more difficult setting at first sight, it can actually lead to a much lower search space complexity by heavily restraining the degrees of freedom. In small enough puzzle boards, backtracking can become trivial.

3) No white pieces, so no squads, and no sacrifices. In echo chess, it’s white against the world. In future levels (starting 9), you get a squad of white pieces to use. This quickly becomes a double-edged sword: your ally is also a blocker on your quest. Higher levels even require you to sacrifice an ally piece in your squad to solve the maze. This adds a whole new level of strategy and complexity to the game.

4) Endless mode with ML. The ‘endless’ mode of echo chess continuously serves procedurally generated chess mazes in real time that are guaranteed to be solvable (with 99%+ accuracy) every time you solve a prior one. You carry over your white piece and ending square as a starting position for the next level. This adds a tremendous amount of replayability, variability, and continuity for the game. It essentially becomes a strategic Tetris variant.

There are lots of other differences and nuances but I really think the post linked above does a better job analyzing them. If you’re an experienced solitaire chess player, I’d love to hear your thoughts on echo chess once you try it out!

Thanks for sharing this cool variant too. I’ll make sure to give it a try :)
Thank you for the clarification. I think it’s super important that these facts are presented accurately and I love the correction.

If we switched H-1B to a salary auction system I would additionally love if it came with a streamlined 2-year path to a green card, because if they won the salary auction and stayed on for two years we’d know these are truly the most valuable workers on the planet and we’d benefit from them joining our workforce permanently.

That said, I understand a complicated change like that would be a major uphill battle and not directly related to our subtopic.

No but I replied to your comment before it was updated I think. It only said 'life is maybe too good for kids anymore' when I saw it but now I see more text.
I think the problem here is squarely with the EPA. Their setup is downright silly (never exceeding 60 miles an hour? I live very close to a highway with an 85 mph speed limit), but I think more to the point they should publish more than one estimate, maybe a "low", "middle" and "high" range. The problem now is that they really only publish the high range, not even the "middle" range.
Instead of keywords and memorizing it, why not just use the first letters? I played around with ChatGPT with this few weeks ago and I don't think there is an existing software for this, I am not good in programming but hopefully somebody will create. Please see screenshot below.

The last time I was in the hospital (2022) the portions weren't terrible, the main problem was that the food was so damned bland. The first few days it doesn't seem like it's that bad, but by the time you've been eating it a week you just lose your appetite because the food is so unappealing. Not to mention that if you have a test or procedure at the wrong time and miss placing your order (IIRC they stopped taking orders at like 4 PM) you're going to get whatever the cafeteria feels like sending you and it will have been sitting at the nurses station for hours. Yummy.

Visual studio was very not great around 2010. I especially hated the widespread divergence from language specifications and the choice to use a different compiler front end for GUI feedback vs generating code, so you'd get errors in one and not the other. My colleagues claimed it used to be worse.
Meh, they’ll figure it out like they always do. Engineering and manufacturing is hard. They’ve got $20B cash equivalents on hand and an $800B market cap, with a 2M unit/year run rate. I bought my S when I was concerned about their ongoing viability, but no longer concerned. The brand has strong enough legs, they’ll survive almost anything now. I’ve been hearing the rumors of Tesla’s death since the first roadster.

The author talks about this too

> As soon as we start doing separation of domains according to data governance, we may quickly realize that in the vast majority of cases, microservices look a lot like traditional monoliths and the domain they should handle is big. Or realize that traditional monoliths are, in fact, microservices. This happens because most organizations have only a very limited number of truly independent domains. Most often — one.
OP's approach looks cool but a bit baroque. I'm also hacking around EDID issues and it turns out there's a nice GUI program to decode and (lightly) patch it: https://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/wxedid

I have to do more involved full EDID reconstruction surgery tho since I need to add DTD entries rather than just change existing ones. So I'm looking at [edid-generator] together with [cvt12]. The latter can calculate xrandr modelines for VESA standard timings that all seem to work with my TV. cvt12 adds the option to calculate NTSC (1/1.001) timings over regular cvt which is already in Debian.

I hadn't heard this, but I'm not surprised. The right wing has essentially declared culture war on EVs. They will tax them out of existence, if they can.
I wish hotels would provide non-free L2 chargers rather than just one or two free ones that are camped all the time and so I can never use them. The non-free resource you can use is much more useful than the free resources that is unusable.

I've found the ID.4 range to also be pretty accurate, even in winter driving. I definitely notice that it takes recent driving style into consideration, but haven't noticed if it takes ambient temperature into consideration, though.
If you're starting from scratch and interested in python, walk through Miguel grinberg's mega tutorial from start to finish, implementing everything yourself along the way.

Depends. Does the EPA still add a few mpg for 'led headlights'?

It's laughable if they still do, cause it's 100% bullshit.
And yet any which way you measure, it seems to be particularly optimistic for one specific manufacturer.
They state the nature of their support in very clear terms:

"We’ll support a small group of open source developers through grant funding (not an investment or SAFE note), giving them the opportunity to continue their work without the pressure to generate financial returns."

Some of the recipients of financial support have described the nature of the agreement as well.

There’s a solution right in the problem: mandate a single “balance card” that pays all EV chargers.

I still take notes on paper sometimes and most "paper" sites are just a bunch of pre-created PDF files. Mine creates a SVG on the fly and then can print it out from the page.

While I really loved creating it and still use it myself, I wish printer support in the browsers was better. I don't have to deal with garbage like IE anymore, but nobody gives me a chance to remove automatic margins and stuff that gets printed in those margins. I can tell the user to do it manually, but much better would be a chance to prompt the user and offer to remove all of that if they OK it.
I had the idea of making a Unix clone called "Mimix" a few years ago. Never got around to it, but thought the name was clever.
Everybody advertises the EPA numbers, and that's generally what people use when buying new vehicles. This article isn't about the EPA numbers, it's about what number is displayed as the range on the dashboard. And on non-Tesla's that number varies based on driving conditions, so it'd be a poor number to base buying decisions on.
Technically true, but sometimes you need a diagnosis code to fill the prescription. Also pharmacists will often talk to the physician. Since this was 2017, the medicines in question were probably donepezil and memantine. With that combination, you can be sure the issues are cognitive in nature.
I guess it's nice that employees of the company felt so confident in their product's safety that they're willing to get tased? Or it would have been if they'd done so voluntarily.
MS care less and less for this and probably already internally writing off MAUI as a fools errand.

New Teams is a React web app. New Outlook? Yeah, web. Gadgets in Windows 11? Web too. New Windows Copilot (Cortana successor)? Web…

Just look at what they do rather than say and the direction is clear.

The only true focus (cross platform or not) seems to be .NET itself, TypeScript and web related tech like Blazor or helpers like Windows UI components for React.

WPF is maintenance mode, WinForms too, MAUI in two years, WinUI also seeing low or no use among standalone enterprise products from Microsoft.
Thank you, I needed to hear that
You’re presuming Anglo political dynamics and cleavages onto a completely foreign culture here. The Indian right wing I wouldn’t characterize as “anti-welfare” at all.
This is odd:

> It is even more complicated for a Tesla owner because the range displayed on the dashboard does not factor in the effects of temperature, driving efficiency or post-sale modifications. It is only when driver requests directions to a destination that the vehicle begins accounting for temperature and driving conditions.

I can kind of understand why? But I also don't believe that it would be impossible to use a better estimate even when you don't have a destination set.
Like for example? I find this story fairly interesting.
> And then I also remember the claim that the youth is insanely uneducated about technology and the modern world, even worse than old people

Yeah that claim doesn’t get made in any sort of widespread way. There are variants of it that do (“kids only know how to use their phones not keyboards”) but your specific wording here makes me think this claim came from some hyper specific bubble or from your own subconscious.

Care to clarify or explain what I’m missing?
Nvidia management: How can we not just double the need for AI chips, but make the demand exponentially greater? Hmmm ... here's an idea ...
I've driven 20k miles in a Tesla LR Y, it's rated at 250 Wh/mi, and my lifetime average is 275 Wh/mi - easily visible in the navigation section of the car.

What Wh/mi number is this article even claiming? It's nowhere to be found. Obviously cold weather affects range, but the article is also claiming the warm weather range is also diminished?

The Tesla trip planner aside from being ridiculously accurate, has an option to show your energy usage versus the rated 250 Wh/mi, as well as the consumption graph has a 'rating' line. So you're aware while driving how your car is performing compared to what it's rated at. It's not like Tesla is trying to hide these numbers at all.

Other people here want to give their lifetime miles and average Wh/mi number? Since this article doesn't.
I have to worked with BLOBs in DB fields in almost a decade, but when I worked with them one really annoying problem I ran into was that the DB wanted to morph the blob in transit by default. So JPEGs and PDFs etc would get corrupted because SQL Server wanted to add its own little byte signature to it during read/write operations.

Not sure if that was an endemic problem or a specific SQL server shiftiness
"Filesystems (eg. Ext4) usually think about whole blocks, but are designed with the eye for smaller files, i.e. files aren't expected to be more than some ten or hundred blocks in size for optimal performance."

I know it always feels like it is "abandoned", but it isn't (it's serving millions of requests every day, especially for major iOS and Android apps!). The truth is I rarely have the time to improve upon it, especially because I've been (deep) in the red for so long it kinda affects my RoI to work on it.

Nonetheless, a couple of months go I completely rebuilt the backend and managed to triple the load we can handle. Still, we're constantly overloaded and I can't upgrade the machine due to the aforementioned lack of funds.

However, I am hoping to revamp the service over the next months, keeping it free, updating the docker image to a much more recent one, closing up PRs and perhaps finding ways to monetize it (again, while never making the free offer worse -- I hope to make it better, instead)

(I've been saying this for years but this time I think the right conditions are there)

I think we are just making some different assumptions. TFA also made a whole bunch of unreasonable assumptions, such as maximum time allowed on the swing, a certain height for the beam, no mention of rocket-assist at all...

When you were a kid, did you ever make the swing complete a full revolution? Not while you were sitting on it, pumping it yourself of course. But the headline and proposed question of TFA was simply "How far can you jump from a swing?" So I just made some different assumptions.

Build a swing such that the beam is about 75km off the ground or maybe just a bit more to be safe, with about 75km long suspension tethers for the seat to hang on. Get your rocket-boosted seat going at whatever velocity you need to make a full revolution plus inserting yourself into orbit at around 150km. Once your seat reaches right about the zenith of the swing's circular path, along the line running from you through the beam perpendicular to the tangent of the earth's surface below, you jump. Or "jump", since you'll mostly be upside down and puking into your fantasy tech space suit or whatever you need to get this done.

Since the seat, no longer rocket boosted, will experience a nice amount of drag once it re-enters the atmosphere, you don't even have to worry about colliding with it anymore either.

I don't see what the problem is.

By stable orbit I just mean one that does not suffer atmospheric drag, since you won't have any extra propulsion once you jump. Probably. Who knows. Do whatever you want. Reckoning with other possible sources of orbital decay is too far outside of this nonsense to bother with. :)

It has a noticeable impact when your car is fairly efficient. I notice a roughly 10% increase in fuel consumption in the winter and I live in a mild Pacific coast climate where winter barely even happens.
Better yet, the range display in every car should display as a spectrum of values that adjusts in real time to driving style and conditions. Ironically, many ICE cars designed during the 1970s oil crisis had an analog dial that did this (probably just geared to the tachometer).
Amazon’s CEO admits there’s no data driving the RTO policy decision. It’s simply his opinion and the opinion of unnamed other CEOs that employees must return.

That’s my issue with it all. Companies are supposedly data-driven and Amazon is known for heavily relying on data and KPIs to measure efficiency, productivity, and thus success or no success. They’re openly admitting those are not in play here.

In this case, they’re simply being assholes to their employees.

Linux* actually does have a tendency towards more hardline stances, simply because it's not answerable to market forces in quite the same way. For example, say 0.5% of monitors out there have dodgy edid values like this. For a commercial OS, that's a lot of unhappy people, many of whom have social media accounts, so "When displaying a new resolution, always start at max(60Hz, lowest available refresh rate) so if something's wrong people can at least see what's going on" might be a good rule of thumb for a commercial OS.

For Linux, however, the equivalent might be "report the bug so an exception can be made for this specific monitor". In other words, it's less important that everybody be immediately happy, as long as bugs can be reported and eventually fixed.

* Shorthand for any OSS kernel and its associated ecosystem

Is there supposed to be a line through some of the center?
From an incentives perspective, it would make sense that manufacturers would try and inflate their ranges because it helps sell their vehicles; range is very high up on customers list when cross shopping EVs. It's unclear to me why Tesla is so unique in this aspect, where they advertise a range that is much higher than what can be achieved, compared to other manufacturers that advertise much more realistic ranges.

Is this a facet of the EPA test? I've heard that manufacturers have the option of "self reporting" but don't know what that practically means. I really wish this was more standardized, because it makes comparing cars a pain.
We worry far more about range in our gasoline vehicle than in our EV. Our EV starts with a full battery every morning. But our gas vehicle might have 50 or 350 miles of range depending on when it was filled up last, and the extra 10 minutes it takes to stop and fill might make us late for wherever we're going.
So... is this good or bad?
