I mean, I completely agree that you should always use the best tool to get the job done and should skip a lot of best practices if the payoff isn’t there. It’s good advice that trumps “best practices” but it’s not really what people mean when they refer to “best practices” and I think you know that.

The problem really is just that people don’t understand that “best practices” are not unconditional rules, but simplified advice representing the common experiences of thousands of people doing the same thing as you. Also, more experienced people like you and me know when it’s safe to break them but that’s a lot less obvious to less experienced people.
The connectors between the North American version of CCS (CCS Type 1) and the European version (CCS Type 2) are different. The NA connector had some clear disadvantages, mainly in its locking mechanism.

The NACS standard uses CCS communication protocols. So it's as related to European CCS as CCS Type 1 was.

And in Europe Tesla uses CCS Type 2 without any discernible issues. In fact the Tesla/NACS connector would be a significant downgrade for the European market because Europe frequently uses 3-phase AC for charging and Tesla's connector does not have the pins to support that.

Tesla opening their connector last year in the US, branding it as the North America charging standard, and working with other manufacturers to get their support was driven by government intervention, namely the Infrastructure Bill which requires use of a charging connector used by multiple brands to be eligible for federal funding to build chargers.

I think Tesla's connector is great but you're missing a lot of context in your story.

Buffon's Needle Problem (Wikipedia)
I’ve been paying for Replit for quite some time, for a tiny Mastodon bot that makes three posts once daily. The price went up considerably with their last pricing change (about 4x IIRC), but fine, I bought a bunch more cycles and left it there, even though it would have cost me half as much to move to DigitalOcean. I didn’t want to take the time to fiddle with it, and I don’t mind paying for services I use. Now not only are they changing the price, they’re making me figure out some new feature just so I can keep this tiny little not-even-a-real-website running. I’m assuming the point was to get rid of little projects like mine, and I understand—enterprise is where the money is, and everyone knows it—but I’m kind of annoyed there’s no price I can pay to just leave the thing running as is. I’ll move it to my DigitalOcean droplet, and I’ll save money on it, but I’ll lose an evening or weekend day futzing with something that I put on Replit precisely because it’s a hobby project I didn’t want to spend time futzing with.

Being able to define your own app-specific Error type which everything gets converted to is incredibly useful and powerful. Especially for web apps where you can return the correct response codes depending on the error.
Yeah but that’s a losing battle. As we go forward you’re going to have to shim out more and more of the new APIs that you need to use.

I don't know why the ICE folks keep repeating this narrative as if everyone is driving non-stop cross-country.

Only 0.8% of trips are over 100 miles. For 99.2% of trips, a round trip is possible with an EV range of 200 miles.

(1) 28% of trips are under a mile

(2) 52% under three miles

(3) 64% under five miles

(4) 79% under ten miles

(5) 93% under 25 miles

(6) 98% under 50 miles

For the trips >100 miles, most of these are in cities (regional) that are close by (Eg: {Dallas, Houston, Austin}, {LA,bay are}, {NYC,NJ,Philly,DE,CT}). The use-case of driving non-stop cross-country is non-existent. Nearly nobody does that, it costs 5 - 10X in gas + hotels. Even people who move, they ship their car.

One thing you apparently can do right way, as a simple subscriber to god-knows-how-many newsletters handled by mailchimp, is to go to:
https://mailchimp.com/en/privacy-rights/

And at the very end send the form request a "Data Analytics Opt-Out" (and if you want, a data access or even data deletion right away).

There's a decent chance that what they're doing is illicit under the gdpr, but until someone files a complaint and they get fined, this is a concrete action.

Maybe ask your newsletter providers to switch from MailChimp as well, if you can dig out who they are...

Do you live in the USA? We don’t “prefer” cars. Cars are the only way to get around in this country. There are no options for a majority of people.

It’s not a preference. It’s a choice shoved down our throats by decades of destroying urban cores, bulldozing poor communities/neighborhoods in favor of massive highway projects, and removing bustling streets of human activity with useles parking lots.

The suburban experiment is a massive failure on all levels. It’s not scalable. It’s incredibly wasteful. Federal/state/local governments dump trillions of dollars on maintenance of this fucking mess.

Isn’t this a situation like wall outlet jacks that will cause very little real world difficulty? It seems like if all EVs produduced in Europe can be charged in Europe that should be fine. I agree within continent charging should be all the same. Its not like phone charger standards where I might plausibly move abroad and want to bring the device with me.
I think solving the context problem is key. I've seen a few proposals for go error handling that address the verbosity while also allowing you to provide proper local context in a terse and readable way. I'm hoping something like that makes its way into go eventually.

They can implement V2L in the exact same way they were going to do it with the CCS connector. CCS did not specify a single way to do V2L, and current implementations by Hyundai, Ford, etc. are not standardized or brand-interoperable.

While I would prefer an interoperable V2L standard, NACS is not a change for the worse in that regard. It does not prevent manufacturers from implementing whatever V2L system they wish on top of the NACS connector.
Maybe some day someone will invent a rechargeable battery. I guess EVs will just suck until that happens. Shame.

It’s not nebulous.

There are kinds of bugs that Swift can provably catch that Objective-C can’t.

There are bits of safety that Swift can ensure without needing to do additional boundary checks or something else, leading to faster/smaller code.

Perhaps biggest of all Swift doesn’t need a runtime like Obj-C. Apple has done an amazing job tuning it, but a direct function call is always going to be faster than message passing.
Yes, $7500 tax rebate for the 3 and half people that are eligible. The latest version of this rebate has income limits and people within that income are most likely not the people who buy new cars at full price, ICE or EV.
You can criticize MBS all you want. What I disagree with is criticism that fails to admit that the regime would very likely be even worse overall without MBS.

How do you weigh MBS's substantial social reforms against his retaliation for personal criticism? This isn't a simple trade either, since a more socially repressive regime would still retaliate against critics, just maybe not Khashoggi, or not in the same discoverable way.

I don't see MBS or his underlings assassinating Atlantic staff over that article. Do you?

Are you aware that India just assassinated an Indian national in Canada? It's causing a diplomatic spat, but I don't see mass outrage over Murmu akin to outrage over MBS.

For a gRPC/HTTP request that calls another microservice and writes to a database, you've got:

* Handler maps the wire format message to an internal entity. Return a bad-request type error if it fails.

* Handler calls controller. Perhaps some specific error conditions get dedicated status codes, the rest get 5XX.

* Controller calls gateway. Except in rare cases where the external call is optional, you probably just bubble this to the handler.

* Gateway maps internal entity to wire protocol format request. Sometimes this transformation can have errors; bubble these up.

* Gateway calls wire protocol client. Wire protocol client may have built-in retries, or gateway may have application-level retries. In any case, if retries are exhausted, bubble this up to the controller.

* Gateway maps wire protocol response to internal entity. Depending on the schema, this can often fail to be well-formed, even if the request is "successful." These errors also need reported to the controller.

* If everything is successful up to this point, controller calls repository. Bubble errors to handler.

* Repository maps internal entity to storage model. Sometimes this transformation is also fallible.

* Repository calls storage client. These errors might be retryable but after retries, need bubbling up.

* Finally, storage client returns successful value to repository returns to controller returns to handler returns to wire protocol server.

This is just a hello-world level microservice. We have thousands of them, with easily a dozen endpoints each and probably 5+ interactions per endpoint on average. And oh yeah, every single one of these error return sites needs a unit test case.

This basically seems to be a case of Tesla truly opening up their connector standard, marrying it with the existing standardized CCS communications instead of their previous proprietary communications, and using the carrot of access to their charging network to get other manufacturers onboard for the North American market.

There are some governmental pressures to use interoperable connectors used by multiple brands if you want to be eligible for federal infrastructure EV charger funding. Tesla is making themselves eligible for this funding, making sure they won't be legislated into changing all of their charge connectors to CCS1 in the future, and gaining new customers to improve profitability of their charger network.

Tesla is by far the fastest growing DC charging provider in the US, on track to build over 500 stations this year with each station being 8+ chargers, some with 40 or more chargers.
that's awesome, good luck!

Most of what you're claiming are indeed signs of social problems, and not small ones. But not a single one of them is an indicator that a collapse is imminent. Some of them are counter indicators, for example the strength of the US military.

All of them were the norm throughout human history up until very recently, and political structures were relatively stable for most of it. The problems might suck but they aren't signs of imminent political instability.

I do think political instability is imminent, but not for any of these reasons. I think there's a weak point, social cohesion, and a pry bar is being used efficiently and cheaply to destroy it. We are being propagandized to hate each other by groups of people who don't have our best interest in mind. All the social programs and military spending in the world can't help when a society no longer views itself as one entity. And calls for unity aren't the answer, they're more of the same propaganda. Those calling for unity do so with an implied qualifier that "unity" happen entirely under their ideological control. There's no desire to compromise, because we don't view those that we would be compromising with as belonging to the same nation.

For Netflix, it's not just about new shows driving subscriber count. I'm probably summarizing incorrectly, but it also has to do with their royalty structure.

I'm just surprised they didn't consider when designing the standard that they're putting a critical moving part on the component most subject to handling and damage.
