I'm sorry I wasn't clearer in my initial comment, I was on my phone and it wasn't really clear.

My Mitsubishi space star did cost 14k new. A Zoe, which I picked because it is similar, cost 35k new. So it is 21k more.

There is the best scenario, where I charge only from home, power is 0.3$.

In this scenario, it cost about 4.2$ for 100km.

If I charge outside, power is around 0.8$ here, so it cost 11$ for 100km.

My ice car cost 8.5$ per 100km.

Best case scenario, EV cost 4.3$ less per 100km, to break even with the 21k more in the price, I need to do 488 372 km, which is about 40 years of driving as I do about 12 000km per year.

If I charge outside, this become even less and less interesting.

There is nearly zero used EV. I can buy a 2010 corola for 10k and do 100 000km on it, a tesla model Y is 45k.

My point is, today, buying an EV is a luxury.

However insurance companies have absolutely no incentives for pressuring the providers to reduce prices, the opposite in fact because they get to keep a share of the revenue..
I think something changed in the past few years that boils down to “it’s ok to lie if it’s for the right cause.”

And it drives me crazy because it’s so short sighted. I’ve had this argument with friends and they adamantly don’t care because “the other side lies.”

The idea of taking the high ground and being right seems to have gone away to “win at any cost.” But I think that when you do dumb stuff like falsify data, it makes you untrustworthy forever.

Well, you've gotten to the crux of it. Stop trusting culture to for profit companies who will be flipped as soon as majority stakeholders get a whiff of "cash me out."

Medicare also pays unacceptably high rates for services; the idea that Medicare would successfully and meaningfully reduce those rates is more aspirational than empirical. One of the most important bottlenecks in health care affordability (residency funding) is explicitly maintained by Medicare.
Embezzlement as in, you bet the money and if it succeeds you pocket the excess. Or that you already stole money and you're desperately gambling company money to make it back and hide the theft.

This is not embezzlement. It's reckless, not theft.

> Sounds both unsanctioned and sociopathic to me.

Very unsanctioned, but I don't see how you get sociopathic from that quote.

Please explain what's sociopathic about it like I'm stupid.

The lack of funding is already there. This act shifts the odds but doesn't really make them worse. And if the company doesn't run out of money that seems like a good thing.

The first quote I saw here was that payroll was going to fail if he didn't do this. I don't think a guarantee of only paying half the employees is better than a 50% chance of paying everyone or paying no one, for example.

If this wasn't affecting payroll then sociopathy is even less of a worry.

Only if this was going to risk payroll with no benefit to payroll do I see a serious moral issue.
The comparison wasn't notable male athletes versus non-notable female athletes. It was non-notable male athletes versus non-notable female athletes. The observation that male sports is more popular, while true, is a non-sequitur.
I use `aqbanking-cli` for grabbing transactions from my banks' FinTS/HBCI API and generate a CSV out of that. That CSV then goes through a bit of Python that splits up the entries into transactions. Those get rendered out as `beancount` transactions (but `ledger` works as well, I used that before I switched to beancount) and appended to my actual ledger.

I then use `fava` (a beancount web UI) to fix mistakes, and have another piece of code (this time written in Go, but could be Python/whatever as well) that takes transactions that are generated from my brokerage account and enriches them with data parsed from my brokers' PDF reports (since the FinTS/HBCI info doesn't contain stuff like ISINs or taxes/fees separately).

This is for my personal finances, but I used the same system (minus the brokerage stuff) when I managed the finances of a hackerspace in the middle of Germany for a few years.
Why wouldn't you get the Ironwolf line for NAS drives? They're made for it and also affordable CMR drives.

That article has nothing to do with self-aware, intelligent robots desiring to kill people. The bulk of it is about robotic industrial machines (in some cases autonomous, but in no cases self-directed—they are simply controlled by preset scripts) killing people because insufficient attention was paid to safety, and it ends talking about how the tech world is trying to get governments not to regulate anything related to "AI", so that they won't be held responsible when, say, a Tesla decides a brick wall with a road painted on it is actually a road, Wile E Coyote style—or some idiot hooks an LLM's output up to an industrial robot, or an actual military killing machine, for the lulz.

We are currently talking to them so we can learn and look for things to automate.

We're aiming to be an online marketplace, so the services we provide (eg skill verification) won't scale if we can't have them use the interface. This is a possibility, but if it's the case we need to learn it early. We're trying to minimise the leap rather than totally change their behaviour. We've started as a messaging jobs bot on apps they already use and are slowly linking more pages to them as we go.

Startup history is full of companies that aimed to change people's behaviour over time: Uber is the cliché example in a former call-centric industry. Alas, so are startup cemeteries.
eh, going to be completely contrarian. Bandcamp appears to have been making almost no money / very little net profit. That's fine, as long as the owner is ok running it that way.

The users of bandcamp -- both artists and fans -- will likely be on far more stable ground if bandcamp earns a reasonable profit. If the owners view it as an asset instead of a charity endeavor or a labor of love. Because in the latter case, people eventually want to move on, as the original creator did after 15 years.
One is supposed to read at least the first sentence of the article, which mentions Bandcamp, before commenting.

> killing 1,000 Palestinian kids and counting
The only reason Palestinian children die is because Hamas hides among the population. They have ammo dumps beneath schools and fire rockets from residential neighborhoods. Israel has every right to vigorously defend it's citizens by engaging with Hamas, the terrorist organization that has lobbed several thousand rockets at its civilians over the last week.

Don't for a second try to equate the horrific deaths of children accidentally caught in a war to those children who are murdered in cold blood by militants.

They’re generally reactionary related to the current state of the world (even the gov’t funded actual conspiracies!) so it would make sense if you look at it that way.

I had a conversation with my neighbor, a staunch Republican, about eye exams after she had taken both of her kids to get checked and was dismayed over the cost of the exams. She seemed surprised when I mentioned that nearly all insurance plans are required to cover vision tests for children due to provisions in the ACA.

She didn't know what the ACA was, which kind of surprised me, but she definitely knew what "ObamaCare" was and changed the subject after realizing that she had wasted money on screenings because she assumed that she had no vision coverage.

It astounded me how many people hated "ObamaCare" but had positive views of the Affordable Care Act. Even today I think that it would be political suicide to repeal the ACA.

I would love to hear from people who worked at Bandcamp during the sale to Epic. Even at that moment I seriously feared for what was once one of my favorite media services ever. Even if Epic seemed like they wanted to be hands-off, I can't imagine working at Bandcamp and being excited to be owned by a company like Epic - not necessarily "evil", but clearly not aligned with Bandcamp's founding ethos.

Ok, I correct my original point: most EVs do not have AM radio not all due to EMF.

It has really nothing to do with the fact that EMF is so high in EVs that it interferes with AM radio signals.

Wasn't that the point? He was trying to trick voters into using an invalid voting method, disenfranchising voters. He very clearly committed a federal crime and "meme" is just a cop out.

Your article is quite low on information but seeing the screenshot of this meme, you can clearly see the intended effect. You should read.

Impressive work. This reminds me of an experimental JVM that was around about 20 years ago from a group called Velare. They could do durable coroutines just like this, but by throwing a particular exception rather than using `yield`. They also could return a value and allow the coro to be resumed with a value.

edit: here it is https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/949344.949362 It was a built-in bytecode interpreter with suspendable threads

It changed significantly how you think about cooperating processes. It was like watching 2 processes have a conversation with each other without the controlling code getting involved in any way. Also, if you save the coros after each call, you can get step-by-step replays which are very helpful in debugging.
Human intelligence is part of Earth because humans are part of Earth. Ergo?
It's mostly about Bandcamp but it could indeed be about anything, as later parts of the article mention how MySpace and Twitter are ruined in much the same way.

Internet Archive can never exist in the EU in regards to hosting because they're so egregiously violating basic consumer rights, including the right to privacy and the right to be forgotten. They make it intentionally difficult, and often impossible, to get content removed from their archive (especially if you don't control the domain). They're oblivious to how many violations of personal information they contain within their own archives - by design grabbing content without having any idea what it is - and stand no chance of ever meeting stringent EU laws on such matters including GDPR.

And that's something to celebrate? No, it's something HN nearly universally somehow overlooks in every single conversation about Internet Archive, because they get a pass (the end justifies the means essentially).

Internet Archive should be illegal because it violates human rights.
These are all pretty loud when seeking.
The fact that it could be about anything is kind of telling, though, right?
Could you please elaborate the reasons to implement this outside of DANE (RFC-7671) framework?

I'll claim that it was better.

The trouble was that it was made by IBM who engaged in countless acts of bureaucratic incompetence and corporate self-sabotage. From the product arriving too late, to IBM not caring about how much it cost its customers, to IBMs hubristic attitude towards third parties, to hilariously incompetent marketing.

But people just want free stuff. If you try to break even they go like "why does everything has to be monetized?" (sent from their $799 iphone).
I struggle to think of any institutions the VC/tech/internet era has produced with any long-term value. My assumption is that these companies go through a cyclical pattern of providing value and then destroying it once successful. That timescale also seems to be getting shorter.

Any going against that trend?
> Bandcamp appears to have been making almost no money / very little net profit. That's fine, as long as the owner is ok running it that way.

That literally is fine. There was never a need to turn it into a highly profitable service. If it was paying bills and salaries, it was an absolute success.
Exactly. And there's tons of stuff out there it doesn't have, waiting to be converted from analog media or out of the clutches of overreaching copyright.

I'd also argue it was the twilight of the cable networks -- streaming media only really started taking off during the middle-end of the Obama era, and it was a strong enough show that it could keep people even as the shift was happening.
It is obviously a sad story, but kind of a little bit too dramatic:

1. 300k damage? I understand this is SF. My wife had one of those accidents, when her townhouse flooded because of the broken pipe in the attic. Insurance paid only 10k, and the final cost was about 30k. They had to replace all drywalls from the floor up to waist.

2. I am sorry, I am not a native English speaker. But this person is not homeless. I mean, come on.

3. This person does not have debt of 300k. Sure, the house might have lost the value. But if they were renting the house, I assume they should have an insurance. If they only hoped for the airbnb insurance, this is a different case.

Anyway, nicely written story for the attention. I am deeply sorry for that. Unfortunately there are always will be bad tenants. This is why I hate being landlord. Tried once to have a rental property, did not like to deal with all of that.
>3. Isreal has demonstrated over and over that they will bend over backwards to minimize civilian casualties

> I do not believe this is true.

You must be living in a bubble. Roof knocks, pamphlets, phone calls etc. They do everything they can to remove civilians before their strikes. Additionally, use your common sense, what is the benefit to the IDF of civilians dying vs the benefit to Hamas.
Yes, really. Someone went completely overboard with the qualifiers and I very much disagree with their opinion.
I guess the counter to that is can bandcamp remain bandcamp when run with a view to increased net profit. Remains to be seen but the answer may be no.

Some things probably work best when the aim is to break even, not to increase profit. Which has it's own set of challenges.
