the big mistake isn't missing "passenger", its claiming that 100% of vehicles on the road will be BEV when the regulation says 100% of sales will be BEV. The average age of cars on the road is about 10 years so a substantial number of vehicles will still be ICE in California in 2035.

I didn't follow that at all, but it seems plausible to me. "China is an evil empire hellbent on world domination" can reasonably be written off as shallow propaganda by a foreign adversary; "China is a fragile coalition of different groups that could easily shatter under stress" is far more dangerous to the CCP's ideology of a unified state, people, and most importantly party to lead them. The former seems like nonsense to anyone who has lived in China, while the latter resonates. The latter also has the shadow of history cast over it: the greatest threats to China have usually been internal division and discord, not external threats.

I think that OpenTelemetry will solve this problem of vendor lock in. I am a founder building in this space[1] and we see many of our users switching to opentelemetry as that provides an easy way to switch if needed in future.

At SigNoz, we have metrics, traces and logs in a single application which helps you correlate across signals much more easily - and being natively based on opentelemetry makes this correlation much easier as it leverages the standard data format.

Though this might take sometime, as many teams have proprietary SDK in their code, which is not easy to rip out. Opentelemetry auto-instrumentation[2] makes it much easier, and I think that's the path people will follow to get started

Show HN: The first-ever whole-file ciphering product with native asymmetric Keys
fusionTAP is a sophisticatedly designed, chip-based data protection solution forged with a series of breakthroughs in cryptography and computer math.

fusionTAP has made possible a brand-new“Ciphered in Storage, Plain in Use” file ciphering scheme. It is based on the one-of-a-kind native asymmetric key settings, and is for the first time implemented in the application level that is operatable for users. With the intuitive operations of the Cipher Manager and the Private Key Device, the discretion for ciphering and deciphering is handed back to the users. The solution can be a perfect blend of extra-high security and intuitive user experience.

Thanks for the detailed response.

I am surprised there is no gauge update API yet (instead of callback only), this is a common use case and I don't think folks should be expected to implement their own. Especially since it will lead to potentially allocation heavy bespoke implementations, depending on use case given mutex+callback+other structures that likely need to be heap allocated (vs a simple int64 wrapper with atomic update/load APIs).

Also I would just say that the fact the APIs differ a lot to more common popular Prometheus client libraries does beg the question of do we need more complicated APIs that folks have a harder time using. Now is the time to modernize these before everyone is instrumented with some generation of a client library that would need to change/evolve. The whole idea of an OTel SDK is instrument once and then avoid needing to re-instrument again when making changes to your observability pipeline and where it's pointed. This becomes a hard sell if OTel SDK needs to shift fairly significantly to support more popular & common use cases with more typical APIs and by doing so leaves a whole bunch of OTel instrumented code that needs to be modernized to a different looking API.
Clearly Apple intentionally resisted RCS for ten years for exactly this reason. Anticompetitive behavior.
That’s standard for Tesla drivetrains on their cars to avoid transmissions: one axle for low speed, one axle for high speed, blending power to the motors and idling one when the other is primary.
I'm one guy. Six years ago, there were two of us out of ~30 that used Android. Both of us switched in the next year or so because nobody else would use a different app just to talk to us. So we were missing out on fairly critical information, and forget anything time-sensitive.

On Android, it wasn't an issue to use Signal, because it will communicate securely if it can and by SMS if it can't. So you can still text anyone from the app. On iOS, not so much.

I'd stay away from Whatsapp just to keep away from Meta.
I think exactly the opposite. No one cares. This is important because most people accept the default.

> though Safari ad blockers seem to get by well enough

I have yet to find an ad blocker that manages to block anywhere close to as many ads as ublock origin. AdGuard is certainly better than nothing at all, but I still see an awful lot of ads while using it.
Eh, I got the word wrong (switch it to "sales") but it doesn't really change my point.
I'm not defensive, I just find your extreme position remarkably silly.

You included nothing about how costs affect anything. You simply assert that you should always test prod on pristine production units.

There are plenty of times outside of software where production units cost millions or you can only produce them so quickly, or both, and where your extreme take would result in remarkable cost or a competitor eating your lunch.

Which is precisely why its not done, and in the real world tradeoffs are made between what really needs 100% assurance and not. Spending money or losing customers for 5 9s of reliability through testing when two are needed is not a best practice, and is often explicitly called out as such.

In the case of rivian, maintaining a significant fleet of expensive, pristine, exact customer spec (ie not debuggable) cars just to try to get 100% prod ota success assurance is unlikely to provide value vs getting 98% assurance and not doing that (by rough calculation, it stands at 98% after this incident).

Next will be the litany of comments pointing out that the declarative API works reasonably well for blocking ads. That's mostly true, for now. Google's shown in several different areas that they know how to slow-roll the real objective over years, when needed.

This is roughly the equivalent of taking a heuristic malware blocker and making it depend solely on file names or file checksums. I can't prove it, but I feel like it's only the first shoe dropping.
We can generate a rough distribution estimate of this behavior pretty quickly..

If you start at an EVEN distribution of renewal dates right now (it's unlikely but for argument):

After 1 year: 33% renewing in the same 2-month period

After 2 years: 50%

After 3 years: 66%

After 4 years: 83%

After 5 years: 99%

The actual distribution is going to be less than that 99% due to a lot of other factors. Such as only 80% of the leases following this same practice, and move-in/move-out pressure in an area. But the impact of this behavior will still be seen.

This practice is price fixing.

quick code:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

# Initial distribution: 1000 leases evenly distributed across 12 months
initial_leases = 1000 // 12 months = ["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"]

# Initialize a DataFrame to track the distribution over 6 years
distribution = pd.DataFrame(0, index=np.arange(6), columns=months)
distribution.loc[0] = initial_leases # Set initial distribution

# Function to update the distribution for a given year
def update_distribution(year):
for month in months:
if month in ["May", "Jun"]: # 12-month renewal
distribution.loc[year, month] = distribution.loc[year - 1, month]
else: # 10-month renewal
# Calculate new expiration month (10 months later)
new_month_index = (months.index(month) + 10) % 12
new_month = months[new_month_index]
distribution.loc[year, new_month] += distribution.loc[year - 1, month]

# Update the distribution for each year
for year in range(1, 6):
update_distribution(year)

# Displaying the distribution
distribution.T # Transpose for a better view
True in some cases, but not in mine. I had taken 3 or 4 years off them before getting then in India. As far as I'm aware most tolerances wear off over time. 3 or 4 years seems like a reasonable amount of time to expect some level of restoring sensitivity. But it was as ineffective as the 3 or 4 years earlier.
I've read way too much about Hans's alleged butt stuff already. I do not need more of that.
Completely agree. This is why they are doing small scale closed doors trials in collaboration with a single private company ... Problems seem normal. "Hot mess" seems normal. They're not in production.
The problem isn’t pumping oil out of the ground, it’s burning it and putting the rest in the atmosphere. Treating oil as a feedstock to other products which ultimately do not end up in the atmosphere should be thought of just like any other resource we extract from the ground.
America should genetically engineer their own pandas as a giant fuck-you. Not even a geopolitical thing. Not even a racist thing. Just a "you won't let us have pandas. Fine. We'll make our own."

More seriously, I find panda diplomacy brilliant. Really interesting how an incredibly poor country (at the time) managed to make use of such an interesting resource for international relations & trade.

"If you need..." misses the point.

The point of the article was that there is sufficient renewable capacity that the standby wasn't needed, for six days. So that's a milestone of some sort. Or, if not a milestone, then at least a checkpoint that shows that seven, eight, ten, or twenty days is only a matter of continuing to scale up.

Only Tesla thinks of this as a regular consumer product with a "launch".

In reality, the competition is already offering electric trucks of various sizes, today, not in beta, not pre-production, but actual products you can buy. And since their competition understands the trucking business, they already know exactly how to slot EV trucks into existing fleets, complete with logistics systems and maintenance contracts and a billion other things that Tesla has zero clue about. They're doing the usual Silicon Valley "winging it", thinking it'll work in this market as well.

Pepsi accepted the pilot program because of

1) Free publicity, although with Elon's recent public political statements, the value of that is quickly turning negative, and

2) Free trucks they're not paying for, California taxpayers are.

And yet a lot of people still believe Tesla is the market leader and that everyone is just waiting for Tesla to come and disrupt the trucking business.

The real estate lobby is run by single family homeowners, not large apartment complexes. The latter is a relatively new entrant in the space, and hardly has any power.
A major stumbling block might be (IANAL), what viable cases are there?

* The software company won't have nearly enough money to be a viable defendant.

* Each victim won't have lost enough to sue by themself, unless the violation allows a large multiple of damages. Their harm is (guessing) 15% of rent or a year. Even a $2.5K/month apartment doesn't add up to enough to pay a lawyer.

Can a class action combine such a wide variety of plaintiffs and wide variety of defendants? Could it be nationwide or state by state?

Why do you need a company for such an initiative? Why not just make it?

Also setting up a company in another country than the one you live in, compliantly, introduces a world of bureaucratic hurt. If you have a good reason to set up a company, far easier to set up a local one.

I lost interest in Signal when they started shilling a cryptocurrency that they had invested in. I really want a trustworthy replacement to Whatsapp but if I'm going to shill an app to people I know, it can't be something that has connections to investment fraud.
The issue is that renewables require extensive, expensive redundancies which are misleadingly excluded from the ubiquitous “renewables are cheaper” studies.

Hopefully people move to Firefox, but I'm not so optimistic. It took a huge campaign to get people to move from IE6 to Firefox, and I'm not certain it can be replicated with Chrome.

My building also uses RealPage and I got the lease renewal notice the other day. I was on the way out when I saw the note so I skimmed it and only saw the "20% increase" number not realizing it was for if I wanted to switch to a month-to-month lease. When I read it fully later it ended up only being a ~3% lease for a full year, which is actually kinda reasonable considering other rents I saw in the area on Zillow. Very strange.

At a glance it looks like a paper worth reading so yes, that's the kind of paper I'd chase down (and still look for others).

Most countries have policy and costing papers, most companies file technical reports with stock exchanges, fossil fuel companies such as BHP have fat technical reports on the energy demands that they meet and project - these are all sources for hard data that can be compared (after normalising for apples V oranges).

The US is a mixed bag - Federal infomation is free and transparent, digging into details can get harder. The UK has a good civil service that puts out a lot of infomation on things that affect policy - from crime to consumption to energy use.

My comment was intended to encourage the user asking "at what cost" to form a better question and pursue their own answers.

> All Tesla Semis and other electric trucks are subsidized by California state and the Megacharger station alone cost around $6 million [these mega chargers can power up to 28,000 homes].

The average US household consumes around 10,649 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA). This translates to an average of about 888 kWh per month, or about 29.6 kWh per day.

Can these megacharger stations really output 828 mWh of power per day?
> Are you aware that the US has the largest rail network of any country in the world, almost the size of the next two (both of whom are geographically larger than the US) combined?

Well of course, the US is a big country - but the overall density of rail (both freight and passenger rail) is lacking compared to Europe (and China too, I think?). I live in the Seattle metro area where the major cities (Everett, Seattle, and Tacoma) do have adequate freight rail accessibility, but none of the smaller and medium sized towns and cities elsewhere in the metro have any kind of rail connection to that main west-coast rail corridor, so they're reliant on road trucks to move goods in/out of those larger cities.

...whereas my part of the north-west of the UK (where I try to spend a good chunk of the year, where-possible) has rail connections between practically every small town, even many (most?) hamlets. Even local supermarkets use the rail network: https://www.railfreight.com/railfreight/2022/01/21/tesco-and...

My parents just went a week without natural gas. When the power goes out it’s rarely for that long and EVs and generators are alternate sources. Looks to me like electric is more redundant than gas.
