I would get the battery replaced at a main Subaru dealer.

Then keep coming back to get the battery replaced when it "fails to hold charge".

If every owner did that it would end up like the region restriction in DVD players.

i.e. The retailers would force the manufactures to turn it off because they don't want to deal with the cost of fixing an artificial problem.

Oh and I would start posting to car websites and forums about how unreliable my car was. Marketing teams do care about getting that reputation.

What a useless crap. It’s an over engineered documentation framework focusing on all the wrong things so some agile consultant can sell more cool aid. I don’t trust anything that is designed someone who last did real projects in the 2000’s OOP Java enterprise craze.
This is a very first-world opinion. Low-end (second hand) smartphones are some of the only available computing devices available for a large part of the world.
How many babies were born due to alcohol consumption? Probably more than the amount of people killed.

In other words, such metrics are usually, but not always, orthogonal to the actual discussion as the choice is not between L&S on or L&S off. I would say that such comparisons are helpful for fully yes-or-no options, such as comparing the rate of vehicular fatalities between human-driven and machine-driven automobiles.
The safety announcements are already full of worst-case scenarios, like cabin depressurisation, emergency landing and evacuation, and landing on water.
>They are yes but that doesn't justify taking it out on their employees.

It's not rational, but humans aren't rational. And sadly if somebody is angry and the culprit isn't present, they will be angry at the nearest human they deem at least slightly responsible. In this case the airline employees.
They have been. My airpods were made in Vietnam like 3 years ago.
As a person who has very close familial ties to other countries (US and Europe), and been around a decent bit, I still think life in Canada is better than in other places (for me). Sure we have problems, some of them are getting even worse than before, but comparatively we’re doing okay. It’s easy to say everything sucks here, but it also sucks in other places for different reasons.

Full disclaimer, I consider myself politically moderate/centrist and still think CBC is very valuable. And again, I understand everyone has different priorities in life and Canada might not be suitable for them. But implying “we have it the worst and nobody would want to live here if they had a way to get out” is also wrong.
I don't really care about centrism, but from a public health point of view, cars contribute greatly (hah!) to obesity and all its ills. As well as all the ills you list.

> the flying experience gets worse every year

People always say this, but I haven't seen any evidence that it's true. In my view, the flying experience at least in the US has actually gotten better over the last few years. United, for example, added free seatback IFEs. (About 10 or so years ago, you had to swipe a credit card to watch anything.)
Good work Mr Ousterhout.

30+ years later Tcl/Tk is still in active use. In space industry (maybe more on the old side of the old/new space dichotomy) it is used everyday to command and control satellites (both simulators and flatsats on ground and actual satellites in space).

>I don’t see as many exploited illegal immigrants in Canada.

There is not a large land border with Mexico in Canada, but Canadians are happy enough to exploit what they call temporary foreign workers who do jobs they don't want to do and have rights which fall short of a citizens on paper and in practice.

This difference seems less due to Canada's superior nature than it seems due to Canada being surrounded by oceans on three sides and by a wealthier country on the fourth side. In fact I think Canadians would do well to keep in mind that they don't face the same issues that other countries do before passing judgement on immigration issues. Almost all immigrants to Canada are immigrants Canada explicitly welcomed to the country who met every qualification.
Very cool. Some small criticism/feedback:

- Pluto is shown as if it is spinning around itself, but in reality Charon (its largest moon) is so heavy (12.2% of Pluto) that their barycentre (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barycenter_(astronomy)) is actually outside of Pluto's surface.

- All the planets and moons are shown as perfectly spherical, but for the smaller ones (e.g. Charon) that's not accurate. Not sure if there is a practical way to fix this though.

- Zooming using the scrollwheel is backwards -- rolling the scroll wheel up zooms out, but in all other applications on my system it zooms in.

- The panels are very annoying. They can be hidden by unticking in the top right corner, but they still come back on mouseover (getting in the way when trying to click on a planet). I can't find a way to completely close them; they can be moved around, but they refuse to go offscreen. "Options > GUI Size> Small" helps a little.
I searched for Subaru Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) mentioning "STARLINK", and found this one:

It mentions a "3G Sunset Update".

A further search for "3G Sunset" turned up a few TSBs that apply to various Subaru models and years.

Of course. She was presumably hired for regular office work, not R&D.
The amount of people (willfully?) trying to haggle with Ryanair is probably the most detrimental to their experience. My latest flight about 40% (yes, I’m counting) of the waits were for people discussing non-booked preferences (suitcases, seats, priority). They should accept any customer wish (except seating) and charge afterwards. That would be great. “Oh here we see you had a overhead and stood in the priority lane. That’ll be € 400 extra.”

Off course their pricing is obnoxious, intransparant and pretty much in opposite of good customer service, but that is their good right. They fly safe, on time and have the best network.
Here's a write up of number #4: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-12-18/tara-isolated-rural-b.... There's a reason for that pricing.

Pseudoscience involving human microbiome seems to be very popular here in HN. Whatever health articles gets posted, someone starts touting their favourite internet theory on how it is all completely determined by the human microbiome, using getting a lot of upvotes. I would advice those people to carefully read the caption on Figure 2 in the article:

> Changes in faecal microbiota have been associated with a range of diseases in humans. Interestingly, despite the diverse nature of these conditions, and the organs they affect, there are some broadly common recurring microbiota features, such as reduced diversity and increases in facultative anaerobes like Enterobacteriaceae. One common theme amongst these conditions is that they often result in increased levels of inflammation, at local and systemic levels. Such inflammation can, in turn, deplete the gut microbiota (and consequently microbial gene diversity), and allow facultative anaerobes such as Enterobacteriaceae to proliferate. This directly impacts the metabolic output of the microbiota, and its interactions with the host. Additionally, there are other host factors that contribute to disease and gut microbiota composition, such as age, BMI and medication, as well as host metabolism and immune response. This makes it very difficult to distinguish cause from effect in correlation-based studies.

In short: it is all much more complicated than you think and separating the cause and effect is something no-one has managed to do convincingly yet. It's possible that the microbiome health really is as important as some people think, but it's also possible that the role is more minor and the changes in it associated with various diseases is just incidental.

I didn't - I wanted to build something I could understand, and the rust implementation comes with a load of (reasonable) complexity, some resulting from the execution model, some from performance requirements.

"Hey, someone burned down my car last night! Its standing over there, the one with minor smoke damage two cars over from the wreck of actually burned car."
So little about tech, and what that's there is mostly how to annoy your devs with trivial corp-like control nonsense.

Too many people in startups try to "play house", pretending to be big shot managers/company rather than develop the product and actually moving the needle (i.e hiring an HR manager as employee #3-5).

How about you do the work, keep to a pizza size team in a garage until you actually can't?
So you think if you had a billion dollars you'd worry about money less?

You'd just worry about different aspects of money. How not to lose what you have, how you will be constantly approached by grifters, how to keep yourself and your family safe.

Different issues, but still worry and still about money. IMO once you're past a certain level it's a lot more about mindset than about what you actually have, right up until you truly stand out from the crowd.

A)11.36 million acres refers to the land leased for either fuel or non-fuel minerals. So if you wanted to compare the size of the royalties to the annual fees for the land, you would need to figure out what percentage of the land was used for fuel versus non-fuel mining.

B) The $165 is per 20 acres, not per acre. "In FY 2022, the BLM collected a total of almost
$94 million in fees associated with nearly 489,100 active mining claims on Federal lands"

> more distant genetic relatives than your salad!

This is ideological BS, not scientific facts. Many of this kind of posts are just pseudoscience in its most pure form.

An animal is obviously more related with another member of the same kingdom than with another member of a different kingdom. Why? Because taxonomy works exactly like that.

If you find a single animal with DNA more closely related with a plant that with another animal that would destroy the entire classification of life.

Molluscs can have, and do have, chloroplasts under its skin. We know about several species of molluscs that have it, but this is borrowed stuff. To a naive person could appear as one single species in a genetic analysis, but is an artifact. We know better and learned not to trust blindly in those analysis
Their theoretical expressive power are the same, they're both turing complete languages. However their practical expressive power is different that comes from language ergonomics, standard libraries and different default optimizations.
Yeah i couldn’t even read the original “manifesto” without gagging. It reminds me of the South Park when everyone starts loving the smell of their own farts. The author here is correct. Techno-capitalism creates more and worse problems than it solves. It’s pretty shocking how someone as intelligent as Marc can pan something so deeply naive.

That's not really true: they never say the word 'crash', and even the way that they phrase things make them seem more mundane than they actually are. You do need to know how to operate your mask; you don't need to know every possible way the plane might burst into flame.

No major browser ever shipped with a Tcl interpreter as far as I can remember. By major I mean Netscape and IE. All of them had a JavaScript interpreter. It was a battle that never happened because it couldn't be fought. Maybe there was a chance in server side software, where JavaScript has not been an option until Node.js. Java and PHP won the server post 1995 and Perl did it before them. Desktop side, the browser + HTML + JavaScript won the desktop, served from either Java or PHP or ASP, then from one of the other post 2005 stacks.

Similarly, one could wonder why Ecuador is Ecuador in English, and was never anglicized to Equator.

The insistence of the leadership of the “Ivory Coast” that the country be called “Côte d’Ivoire” even in English, does seem to have been broadly successful. I rarely see “Ivory Coast” in English-language scholarship or in travel resources these days. I’m a bit surprised that Wikipedia still uses the English version throughout its article on the country.

A union Canadian civil servant can work 35 hour weeks and be unfirable even if their actions are frowned upon. Whereas an entrepreneur often gets to work a liberating 80 hours a week and stepping a toe out of line can draw the ire of clients and bankrupt them.

At least in the US, tech is currently in a wage supression war, and I’m afraid this will ripple out all the world.

But for “a lot of people live with their parents” that’s actually a sign that things are not going well at all. This can be seen all over Europe, and just means that people cannot afford to move out, not that they like living with their parents. If/when they inherit their parent’s house they might be in their fifties or sixties, and most of their prime life is gone by then.

I think you're right. I've sometimes been in the situation of having to maintain a script that depends on APIs or data formats that change from time to time without warning. A fair amount of skill and effort is required. (There is skill involved in writing the script so that it is maintainable and not too fragile but still detects when something has gone wrong.) If the script is doing a task that has to be completed on a particular day every month, rather than whenever the script hacker is next available, then you'd have to choose between paying the hacker a reasonable retainer or having someone around who you know can still do the task manually, which means you might have to get them to do the task manually from time to time to stay in practice.

A dilemma I keep facing in practice is converting a text that someone else has produced in their own special way, like the ghastly cluttered HTML from a word processor. For example, do I attempt to use a Perl script to automatically convert some of the mark-up, or do I throw away all the mark-up and put back the italics by hand, with the risk of making a mistake? (If anyone knows of a good configurable or modifiable tool for converting cluttered HTML into sane HTML/XML I'd be interested to hear about it. My Perl scripts for doing it are not great.)

15+ years ago the Darien really was more dangerous due to guerilla activity that, while still present, has abated. You might want to read Karl Bushby’s account of walking the Darien Gap around the turn of the millennium, and listen to interviews he has given on the subject. He had to coordinate his traversal with the Colombian military and, as a former soldier himself interested in intelligence matters, he got a good idea of just how much was going on in the jungle at that time. Not only the anti-government FARC but also right-wing militias that could be just as dicey.
it feels to me Americans are more legislated: city laws, county, state, federal. That there are more neighbourly oppressions: your community has more rights against you (about what your lawn looks like, etc.). And so on.

Americans also feel more taxed, again, at every level above.

Ironically, I think the more centralised power is, the more uniformly its managed, the more free one feels under it -- since there arent as many competing interests to worry about
