You are right 28mm is currently a common road tire width, but that's the total external tire width. What I mentioned rising from about 17 to (not yet common, but getting there) 25mm is the inner rim with - the narrowest measure between opposing rim flanges.
Simple, efficient. Good to quickly make videos to unveil new product features! Are you considering implementing more advanced AI-generated video visualization with RunwayML, Pika, and others? Sometimes, I feel that product videos can be bland.

It’s declassified documents from the USSR. If you don’t want to believe them in your support for the USSR, who are we supposed to believe?
My personal experience (model y lr) is 4 hour trips are the sweet spot and anything over 6 hours becomes a drag. I can reliably go over 200 miles @ 80mph without charging but after the first charge you have to stop every 100 miles or less. When we do long cross country trips (8+ hours per day) we take the gas car.
Seems so odd to be such an jerk about it…
Why would Sam be expected to know why he was fired? At best he'd know what the board told him which may bear no relation to the motive.
> Why would his manager have been upset if they were actually trying to force him out?

The manager made up reasons to place this person in the lowest rating, threatening w/ a PIP. Why? Perhaps to have a warning on file. Perhaps to try to persuade an even higher level of performance than what they'd previously considered excellent... who knows.

The manager being upset shows the PIP threat wasn't justified, as you noted. You don't get upset when a non-performer chooses to leave. Why would anyone continue to work under a manager that unjustly threatens them, or tries to motivate performance w/ fear? No, leaving was the right choice, even if they "won".

To me, it sounds like the manager is the one who really needs to go. Perhaps this really isn't Amazon policy at all, and this manager is being overly tyrannical and training his staff to be the same. We'll never know. On the other hand, Amazon never said what the "number of inaccuracies" were. It could very well be this tale is actually very close to policy too. Heck, it could be the actual policy exactly... zero IS a number after all.
Again, wrong political beliefs.

O'Keefe's content isn't much more egregious than Maddow's Russiagate coverage or any of the insane content pushed by politics streamers with huge reach (to children, no less) like Hasan Piker...but yet they're media darlings for being on the correct side along the overton window.
Edmunds is mostly in California and so while they do real world testing, it is real world for where their editors live. (they need everyone to do long term testing and report how it really did as they drive in the real world).

The above is all as I can figure out from reading articles. Their about page doesn't actually state any of that. As such I might be wrong.
When would that actually matter for a road trip? 6kW vs 9.6kW, both should charge your car overnight, if you’re at a hotel or something.

Trend alert: Smart Rings are exploding
I used to by a shy junior developer. What helped me was that the environment was very friendly and whenever I spoke, I was heard. Not just heard, but if my suggestions were good they enacted upon. If not, I was explained why.

I also had many casual discussions with my manager so that helped me open up with him. Later I had discussions with other (equally welcoming) senior devs.
Now the whole team feels like friends to me and I generally don't shy in speaking up.
Better even: the parent window knows the position of it's child window. So firefox only knows the one window. And that in a situation where you actively had to allow the permission for the parent to spawn the child in the first place.

Sounds nothing but reasonable to me.
I have documentation. They don't care. HR said to just work with my manager on accommodations. My main problem is dealing with ambiguity and context switching. That's something they can't change given their chosen work model.

The old model of working was that you supported 1 main app and maybe a smaller 1 or 2 that were related. These were usually in 1 stack and well documented. The new model is that teams are typical supporting 6-10 apps in multiple stacks. I'm slow when switching between apps and stacks, and without consistent exposure to a single app/stack, I won't get faster.

It's funny though - they talk a big game and even hire in Auticon contractors, but then refuse to do anything for existing employees. I assume a least some of those contractors have similar difficulties as me.
I'm not, our monitors are 1920x1200 ~24" so the text is not yet too bad. I use xterm with the default bitmap font which I've become very accustomed to over the years and so I can probably read it better than I can actually see it.
I'm all in favour of doing reproducible work, especially against open-source ML (I'm the maintainer of a library for LLM inference), but what is the alternative here?

GPT-4 is still the flagship model "of humanity"; it is still the best model that is publicly available. The intent of the paper is to determine whether the best general model can compete with specialized models - how do you do that without using the best general model?

That's debatable.

Samsung, a behemoth in Korea and one of the largest holdings in the world, has tried to compete with TSMC at the same node size, and failed so far.

> Will they stay behind western technology forever because we have an R&D lead? People who claim this are ignoring a big factor: they will no longer be able to profit from Chinese buyers.

Doesn't this work the other way around as well? Chinese companies in the same space will not be able to profit from EU and North American customers, historically the largest spenders.
Really interesting, thanks!

I'm a little surprised about the icc thing, since it has/had a reputation for really good Intel x86 codegen.
Per se economies of scale don't work in all areas of business, but there is increased efficiency in centralizing nearly anything. That's exactly why standards get created in software as well as anything, and why hierarchies and specialization of labor happen.

The problem with monopolies -- and monarchies for that matter -- isn't that they're inefficient. They're incredibly efficient. It's merely that the gains are almost universally used to enrich the owners of the means at everyone else's expense.

IMO long range starts at 400+ EPA meanwhile the Lucid air is over 500. But 2.5 hours vs a 303 EPA EV is low. Resistive heaters at 32f can cost you 25% range vs 6% with a heat pump so that could be your issue.

Two tips that may help is preheating your car while still plugged in and doing a partial preconditioning before charging on your road trip. That or your driving habits, speeding has diminishing returns when it costs you range.

He got an email requesting support for software with the same name as his, that points to his documentation, while having zero access to the software itself. I'd say being mildly annoyed at that is warranted, especially since we're talking about a gigantic corporation on the other side.
Trying different calculators online, 80 million streams estimates to about $200k in royalties paid out. Probably wildly inaccurate based on different deals etc., but probably in that order of magnitude instead of nickels. How that is distributed to the artist I guess is up to the label.

Not really.

It's silly to buy from Tesla for any reason but you want one of their products, all other reasons are trivial.

There are many non trivial reasons that you may not want to give your money to a company or organization.
>>Considering the fact that America’s involvement in Ukraine is the reason Ukraine is in the war to start with?

The only side to blame for invading Ukraine is Russia. Literally no one else. That's not to say US hasn't had involvement in Ukrainian politics - I'm sure they did. The responsibility for the invasion still lies 100% with Russia.
I've never really seen PowerShell beyond minimal commands, but after seeing the parent, I definitely think it has the superior syntax of the shells. Especially for scripts.
The “multiple loads” solution is IMO correct. It does precisely what it looks like it does, it doesn’t rely on any assumptions about how integers are represented, and, IMO best of all, it completely gets rid of the “native endian” crap that has plagued C programs for decades.

(And you computer can convert endianness in a cycle or two. There is very little excuse for optimizing based on “native endian”.)

edit: about the only good thing I can say about “native endian” is that it maybe justified in cases where the value never leaves the machine. Hash tables in memory come to mind, and the article seems to be about that.

? I searched their website and code base and can find no reference to AI with this project (other than a list of “AI veterans” involved).

It’s not generating code or UI using AI (as I initially assumed from the demo)… how is “Data and AI algorithms” into “full web applications”?

It looks like it’s a framework you write code in.

Am I missing something obvious?

You are talking about a part of the world that literally has caves with paintings of early humans hunting animals for food. There are a lot of regions in this part of the world where the landscape has been completely shaped centuries of animal husbandry. There are stories centuries old about wolves decimating herds.
Coffee was found by a goat shepherd because his animals couldn't sleep after eating the coffee beans.

You are completely delusional about the story of food in the world. People can rely more on cereal/bean farming because of advancement in agriculture, mostly after the industrial revolution. Because before the invention of the tractor, much of farming was actually reliant on, you guess it, animals (horses, cows, donkeys, etc.).

The thing is that animals were mostly reserved for the richer and the poor would die much earlier, very often from malnourishment/undernourishment from all the physical work they had to.

You guys are fanatics, ready to throw away centuries of Europe history just to "be right". It's pure insanity.

'Gay Furry Hackers' Breach U.S. Nuclear Research Facility
There was a book by Roald Dahl called the great automatic grammatizer which described an automatic typewriter that could be tuned to automatically create novels. Mediocre but quickly producible content swamped the market and genuine authors found it hard to get paid and so turned to these automatons to ghost write for them. A few held out and the cost was starvation. The story ends with "give us the courage to watch our children starve".

It was prescient. And i think this article captures the same sentiment.
I disagree; you can learn 90% of Go in an afternoon. However, you also do have a point; the power of Go is not apparent in an afternoon, but in longer term and larger projects spanning years or decades, and hundreds or thousands of developers. It was made by and for Google to solve Google's problems, which include millions of LOC written and read by thousands of engineers over the span of decades.

So while at first you think "eww, err != nil everywhere", at least in a decade of reading your own or someone elses' code you'll know exactly what's going on.

How many languages are similar? I feel like a lot of languages in the past decade have had a steady migration in things like error handling, so 10 year old Java code is incomparable to today's Java. Whether that's a good thing (the language has evolved and is now more ergonomic) or a bad thing (I no longer know what's going on here) is the big debate.

We very much need to give the truth a leg up because there are powerful moneyed interests peddling lies.

That's where ripgrep-all comes into play which will grep through archives, PDFs, ebooks, documents, etc.
At a 2x difference it's probably not worth it to have to deal the hassles, immigration, labor laws, relocation, time zones, cultural/language differences (yes, even between US and UK there are differences!). But compared to India, with 10x+ the wage difference? Suddenly it's worth it.

I don't think 2x is actually that high a differentiator between any two people doing the same job... it's easy to believe that someone can do the work of two other people, or twice as well as another particular person. It's within a believable variance. But 10x, 25x, 100x...? Not so much.

And in fact, it probably suggests where US wages SHOULD be -- similar to Western European ones -- if our market was more realistic and not driven by VC money. Well, with some affordances for our different social safety nets and costs of living too.
i've got astigmatism bad enough i need glasses to give me depth perception when driving. Last time i saw the doc i got a prescription for that, and another to give me sharp correction at 12in to 30in "reach" range; which i call my "workbench glasses." They make soldering much easier.

I generally sit with my monitor at 30in range, and get by without glasses. Everyone complains my fonts are too small to read. If I'm working on something intense, lately, I'm getting to the point where i find the workbench glasses helpful. It's not quite noticeable "vision problems" but the eyestrain mounts after a while.

My usual idle browsing and commenting here, I don't get that so much and don't really notice an issue yet.
What about a use case of VMs? You could run hundreds potentially on a single host.
And that exactly is why we absolutely have to keep the veto power of member states in the EU. The only reason why they backed down is because few countries said "there is no chance in hell we're agreeing to this". If we were making laws based on simple majority few biggest countries plus a couple others forced/bought into submission could override everyone else.
The comparison is leaving it with the company and hoping something good comes out of it. That’s also trickle down economics by that moronic definition.

Have been dealing with this issue recently. memcpy was quite slow in my tests however, it was ~twice as fast to check the alignment and load as floats (was dealing with floats in my case).
I've been using ripgrep for about 2 years now and I find in indispensable. The main reason I switched from grep was ease of use. From the README: "By default, ripgrep will respect gitignore rules and automatically skip hidden files/directories and binary files." Typing `rg search_term directory` is much better than the corresponding grep command, but the speed improvement is also a nice bonus.

Random other helpful flag I use often is -M if any of the matches are way too long to read through and cause a lot of terminal chaos. Just add `-M 1000` or adjust the number for your needs and the really long matches will omit the text context in the results.
I had exactly this experience with Toyota. Their cars don't contain the fanciest and most complex technology, instead they seem to focus on simplicity and reliability, without compromising on the product too much.

This approach is a serious problem now though. They have big issues producing competitive EVs.

It would've been great to have the reliability score for EVs as a separate statistic. I'm sure they don't always match up with the overall reliability of a manufacturer.

> OpenAI is in some commercial and non-profit superposition

This is the big issue I have with it that no one has yet had a satisfactory (to me anyway) answer to. The internet was scraped for all manner of writing, images, etc. to train these models for research. And then once the research was done (enough), they took the model and began selling it for profit.

The question of is using publicly available content as training data fair use is an interesting question, but OpenAI has gone to market with a product on offer not merely without answering it, but seemingly quite deliberately avoiding answering it and AI hype people seem completely fine with it, despite that being a make-or-break question for the concept. And it's less that I think OpenAI owes royalties to every single person they collected training data from, and more than I'm extremely uncomfortable with and skeptical of the notion that, from my perspective, yet another major player in the tech space is abusing the public square to make a buck, which is unfortunately far from a new story.

Maybe I'm just getting old, but the rallying cry of disruption, where these startup companies come in half-cocked insisting an old industry is in dire need of innovation but plot twist, the innovation is just app-powered slavery again, they get seventy billion dollars to build an app and a website, crush an existing industry underneath the weight of VC money, then either a) price the service so it's no goddamn cheaper than the thing it replaced but now the people actually doing the work are somehow making even less money or b) go out of business and leave a husk of an industry left that barely functions and nobody wants to start it back up again is just... hollow.

Technology is great, but these massive corporations with the backing of unholy amounts of money just manifesting their destiny all over our society and economy and making us live with the consequences isn't.

I've literally addressed it. These two are not mutually exclusive. I'm going to be thankful to the country giving me weapons to fight my invader, even if that country is a scumbag too. That shouldn't be difficult concept to grasp. Do you think Ukraine should be like "uhm no thanks US, we don't want your missiles, we're good". What country under active invasion would do that??

“ Porsches and Audis had insane repair costs, compared to eg similarly sized Volkswagens”

It’s a known thing that those brands share parts between models, but the price will be substantially different if you buy the “Porsche” part vs the (identical) “VW” part. The price discrepancies don’t necessarily indicate they Audi/Porsche are less reliable.
