Not mentioned in the article (but present in the original source) is that non-plugin hybrids have 26% fewer problems than ICE cars - I wonder why this is.
After spending a number of months on Lemmy as my primary social media, I actually think the fediverse makes one of the biggest issues of social media much worse.

There's a very real and dangerous trend towards extremist positions as a result of social media bubbles. I'm sure most people have noticed how large family gatherings have shifted over the last 15 years, and how some family may no longer even be invited as a result of social media driven shifts.

The fediverse makes these bubbles so much worse, with servers of like minded moderation creating a trend towards groupthink as opposed to representing a variety of opinions.

So while it's promising from a standpoint of shrugging off corporate driven issues in managing social media, the fragmentary nature is perhaps the opposite of what social media actually needs, which is less bubble driven optimization with regression towards extremist means and more broad exposure and interaction with regression towards the normal mean.
I used to do this at Uni, and I actually enjoyed it. It was like a complicated puzzle, and the thrill of solving it was powerful. I remember spending days getting a SunOS <-> Lotus Notes gateway working the way I wanted it to.

Ironically, M4 felt over-complicated and abstracted, so I did not want to learn that. Direct edit all the way.

This seemed like an obscure parlor trick that vanishingly few people could appreciate. I was totally OK with that.

And I was truly shocked to later learn that there were people willing to pay for this service. Ah simpler times.
Not the person you're replying to, but yes, I think that's right. But that's what's clever about the story.
Here we go again. I predict, total guess, that by 1/1/2025 we will be back to at least the all-time high of $69,045.

I suspect, due to its fast rise, that someone with a ton of money is accumulating the asset.
Where do non-primitive recursive functions come up naturally?

Just link the original article[0], the cbsnews article has like zero depth. But even the consumer reports article lacks a lot of depth - I'm sure they want me to subscribe.

Anyway, I was hoping to see what specifically was the problems other than generic "charging problems". Like which make+model and what kind of "charging problem" was it. Simple like the app failed or really complex like the charger unit needed to be replaced.

Teslas are notorious for cabin problems/cheapness, but their drive train has way less complaints. So I'd like to see how they fair.

If you wanted to get better at making love with women, would you practice making love with men?
Thanks but... Oof! I think I prefer make.
You've already got your product... Work backwards. Who's your target audience? Who would your unique insights appeal to? and why would they be appealing to prospective customers?

I'd say nearly a 3rd of the content on my instagram is food based, either people food tourism or cooking. Insta is by far my favorite channel for food content. I think Laurent Dagenais does a great job appealing to young and middle age people... good production and recipes, usually some level of boozing through out the video, and good background music. Definitely has a "fun" vibe.
Yeah, I think we're supposed to understand that. I personally found it funny that the narrator was reevaluating herself in such a superficial way.
The CDK is incredibly Byzantine and assumes you have a lot of in depth knowledge of AWS services.

I can learn Cloudflare workers in a few hours by contrast.

I hate the CDK because it’s a terrible undisciplined undiscoverable interface to their services.

I wish AWS wasn’t everyone’s default cloud choice, it’s DX is horrendous
That’s silly. My partner is a better cook than I am and a better driver. Any scale where I rate a 10 for either of those is dangerously disconnected from reality.

Essentially the observation was the same. A person claiming they'd buy something is worthless information. He had some strategies for getting around it that I've long since forgotten.

It's apparently not on archive.org yet. I just dropped my copy into my next donation box. It'll be there eventually now.

The term he used was "pretotyping" that term will probably yield everything you need.
It's not just the sex with someone else. The main character is lying to their girlfriend the entire time, avoiding the girlfriend to prepare in secret, trying to "get" her before she herself gets "got." But she didn't even know for sure the "got" was going to come. Yes, she saw the "temporary" label, but every relationship starts out temporary. Sometimes people date other people knowing ahead of time that it won't last forever. Sometimes people express that fact in writing (private diary, spreadsheet, whatever). That doesn't excuse this behavior. I'm curious, if cheating in this kind of relationship is fine, when do you think it becomes unacceptable?
There is more than the policy, there is also the law and court caselaw (at least in common law countries). The policy is where they detail things not covered by the others in some way. So you need to check with a lawyer.

I ran into this on FreeBSD when cryptography started using a rust core for its work. Suddenly my jails needed a full rust build environment just to install this one package. It was a frustrating day.

Every time I upgrade that jail/venv I cry a little inside.
Not a job per se, but some friends and I wrote a library for building compositional chatbots (like for IRC not LLMs necessarily) encoded as Mealy Machines: https://github.com/cofree-coffee/cofree-bot/

That project has since led to a long term collaboration with the Topos Institute where we are building a type theory for Polynomial Functors: https://github.com/toposInstitute/polytt

Polynomial Functors are a really powerful abstraction from Category Theory which subsumes the co-algebraic approach to finite state machines used in `cofree-bot` and which can also be used to encode wiring diagrams, tactics engines, game semantics, neural networks, and dynamical systems in general.
Then buy them from China until you have diversified your supply chain.

This is the fundamental point, the US will avoid risking its hegemony ahead of burning the planet.

And in order to do that all sorts of intellectualising needs to occur about why solar/wind/hydrogen is worse than nuclear when they provide a clean solution based on globally abundant, clean, available, simple technologies.

That was weird indeed. When I was in high school in Japan as an exchange student, I did think it was strange that I had to clean the classroom myself rather than a janitor. But now that I'm older, it makes perfect sense.
This seems like one of the reasons for the policy to always use ILS at SFO:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Canada_Flight_759

"The NTSB determined the probable cause was the Air Canada flight crew's confusion of the runway with the parallel taxiway, with contributing causes including the crew's failure to use the instrument landing system (ILS), as well as pilot fatigue. A retired pilot stated the runway confusion that almost happened "probably came close to the greatest aviation disaster in history"[2][3][4][5] as five airplanes and potentially over 1,000 passengers were at imminent risk of a disaster greater than the Tenerife airport disaster."
Fantastic idea.

I used to go out for walks with my kids and pick up trash in the neighborhood. They joined me with no prompting. Then we upgraded neighborhoods and there was no trash to clean up.

SRFI editor here. The numeric designations are there because, among other reasons, there is sometimes more than one SRFI for a particular general idea. But there is nothing stopping libraries from having more than one name, including a semantically meaningful one. In fact, there has been a SRFI standardizing how that is done since 2008 [1].

The moral equivalence argument is not compelling. Israel is home to most of the world's Jewish population, and is a country which upholds Western values.

"[Israel] will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex; it will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture; it will safeguard the Holy Places of all religions; and it will be faithful to the principles of the Charter of the United Nations."

Compared to Hamas:

"The Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him salvation, has said:

'The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.'"

Do you really wish for Islamic terrorists to succeed in their stated goal of Jewish genocide? If you were a woman or ethnic/religious minority, which country in the Middle East would be more hospitable than Israel?

The Lord intended it to be this way. No arguing with this, heathens.
Apple might be more incentivized to deal with spam using their communication rails more than a typical SMS provider. It might be worth at least marking this as spam in Messages.
CR has a long history of bias against anything electric in their reporting and headlines.

They state they drew these conclusions based on 330K survey responses. Over 13M vehicles are sold in the US alone each year. For 2.5% to be a representative sample requires extremely careful control over many confounding factors.

If their 330K survey responses follow the same distribution as new vehicle sales, only about 23K of them were BEVs. That doesn't seem like a representative sample of the roughly 1M BEVs sold each year.
Because most hybrids are Toyotas.
Yeah, this feels like a great condition to start a startup, if you can raise.

Talent is the cheapest it's been certainly in at least 10 years. The rest of the economy is going okay, so customers shouldn't be impossible to get. If you want office space, that's going great.

I don't know if anyone can raise money right now, though.
Sounds like the manufacturer just wants to ship palettes of the product to amazon and not deal directly with individual customers and are happy to have amazon make their markup for the service they provide.

+1 to the above. ATC is working to get *ALL* traffic going and if one pilot doesn’t want to do what everyone else is doing then this pilot goes to the end of the line. Company procedures or not, SFO parallel arrivals require visual separation in VMC. If you don’t like it, then hold and wait till ATC can squeeze you in without someone else landing on parallel. ATC has no obligation to “special treat” someone who didn’t declare emergency and force others to wait while someone takes their time flying ILS with (high) IFR separation requirements on a CAVU (celling and visibility unlimited) day.

There is definitely a learning investment in order to write good Nix expressions. But, if you write a good nix shell expression for your project, other devs should be able to jump in without really needing to understand those Nix expressions and still get a working environment.

Yep, modern CMake makes this super easy, its a solved problem.
In America’s “receiver pays their part” system I wouldn’t be too sure. In the rest of the world, the caller/texter pays 100% of the charge, but in the US you’re charged per text and minutes received.

Once you add a “free call” entity on the other side (like Google Voice) then no one is charged to make the call.

Additionally, plenty of people “sell” their real number and there are android apps routing internet call through the victim’s real number. In this case, even if the person is charged, it’s not necessarily the spammer.
Yes, Goodlatte and his donors introduced legislation which was a massive overreaction to the issue it was "remedying". But noone had the deep pockets to fight it.

Oh, and there are some killer ironies in Bob Goodlatte's trajectory (I never thought I'd see a revolving door made out of paper, but now we have):

Goodlatte stepped down from Congress (and House Judiciary Chair) in 2018. In February 2020, he registered as a lobbyist [0] representing (media rights holders and) and the Project for Privacy & Surveillance Accountability, a nonprofit that describes itself on its website as “a nonpartisan group of U.S. citizens who advocate for greater protection of our privacy and civil liberties in government surveillance programs.”(!)
In an interview, Goodlatte said he is lobbying Congress and the administration on behalf of the nonprofit on three provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act authorizing government surveillance programs set to expire in March 2020. [1]

> Goodlatte invoked surveillance abuse against Martin Luther King Jr. in the context of [alleged surveillance abuses in 2016] [2]

Squeaky brakes? Is that a real problem?
You should tell that to the cops after you rent a car and refuse to return it. I’ll make the popcorn.
The variance between brands and models is far higher than the variance between vehicle types.

Toyota and Honda are the most reliable brands, and they don't sell many electric vehicles. Once you factor that out, you can't draw any conclusions on whether electric cars are more reliable than gasoline cars.
Yes, a lot of the stats in that article correlate pretty closely to which Manufacturers are generally reliable (Toyota & Honda) and which are not (Chrysler).

You would need to break out the EVs separately from the rest and see how each model compares to really evaluate the state of EVs.

With so few models, it is easy for a few rotten apples to pull down the whole bunch.
"People still use phones?"

For my social circle, phones have become fax machines -- archaic tech that you forget exists until required for some abnormal situation. My pocket computer's "phone" reference feels quaint, like those floppy disk icons on save buttons; except disk drives aren't so persistently, actively detrimental to my day that I must disable them.

So now, all unknown callers are automatically ignored. If it's important, they'll submit a proof-of-work voicemail. Otherwise, modern apps work perfectly for everyone, and the vestigial phone system can remain in the graveyard where it belongs, thank you very much.

I think this is largely moot because just about every social media site will either allow you to select your communities or algorithms will filter for you based on your behavior.
I’m not confusing those; by popular I simply meant… well, popular. It was what everyone used because it’s what there was.

My point was that vinyl, as well as being (1) pleasingly retro and (2) physical rather than existing in the cloud somewhere, also has (3) fundamentally desirable traits as an audio format — ‘analogue warmth’, etc. Bad lossy digital compression has (1) but not (2) or (3).

You’re right about vinyl’s current popularity not having much to do with that though: it’s mainly (1) and (2) I think.
…why would this have anything to do with race either?
Send all unknown numbers (not in contact list) direct to voicemail...easy peasy. 99% spam calls don't leave voicemail and visual voicemail lets me delete and block quick. Very minimal intrusion into my device and time.

Couldn't imagine taking the steps in this post to try and block a number that's probably already been replaced with a new one by the time it takes for anything to be done.
I was sued and lost a lot of money. It made my life very difficult at that time and I regret my actions. I did learn a lot about the legal system and the industry, and it inspired me to get a law degree and license, so it wasn’t all for naught.
Very interesting read. The article linked from it about Erden Eruç is equally fascinating.

> The 62-year-old Wauna resident Erden Eruç (AIR-den AIR-rooch), already the holder of 16 Guinness world records, was on his way to doing just that when he launched his rowboat from Crescent City, California, June 22, 2021. After 239 days and over 7,800 miles alone across the Pacific for the second time, he became the first person to row from North America to Asia when he landed in the Philippines March 24, 2022, securing two more world records.

Wow! There is reflecting from both him and his wife on the preparation and mental effect this has on both of them.
Yeah, sites willing to accept the full retail price and not discount the shipping to match a larger vendor's site, then of course they're firing their footgun with both barrels. There's a reason places will offer free shipping with minimum purchase prices that ensures there's enough profit made to cover the cost of the shipping.

The hassle of inventory/shipping logistics is something people with no experience easily do not consider.
Sure, you can still have safe code with irreducible loops. Safety is orthogonal. There is a proposal to add "multi-loop" (https://gist.github.com/conrad-watt/6a620cb8b7d8f0191296e3eb...) to Wasm, but it hasn't been a high priority.

Of all the Wasm JITs I know of, none of the Web engine's optimizing compilers can handle irreducible control flow in their backends. Their register allocators and codegen algorithms would need to be modified. I worked on TurboFan, and several parts of it would choke on irreducible control flow. It's likely these engines would fall back to baseline compilation for such functions, which is a bigger perf impact than using state variables.
I believe that your view and the OP's are correct simultaneously.
I keep telling myself that an incoming recession creates good conditions for my startup (vivoh.com). I guess I've internalized the idea that if you have a startup during a recession and can survive, you'll be in a great position at the end. We shall see.

But, I'm hedging my bets as well with side projects that would appeal to people in a recession , small purchase items that help them learn while they are looking for work: supernatural blogging tools svekyll.com and extrastatic.com. And a way to level up in Japanese by combining anki flashcards with Japanese classic books and learning kanji (community.public.do).

But, I'm concerned about this next year. Lots of people at my co-working space are saying this is the worst sales environment they have ever seen. It's anecdotal but it feels like that to me too.
This is amazing, I will def be playing with it (lossy is also my jam) and hi! I made pamplejuce, hope it worked ok for you, lemme know if anything was rough (its been growing up a bit lately)
My impression was that you could send SMS through iMessage but when it's between iphones it doesn't use old school phone tech at all and just goes through the internet like other web based messaging apps. But only between apple devices of course.
With booking systems that use texts for appointment confirmation, several companies end up using the same group of phone numbers due to the service that sends the text having limited phone numbers.

Some of the companies are quite spammy. It’s frustrating as blocking the number risks blocking real ‘you have an appointment at xxx’ type messages.
Something like https://www.manyver.se/ ? It is available on Google Play, Apple App Store and F-Droid.

It seems they have had some issues with Google Play and the App Store with their weird catch-all policies, requiring integration with Google/Apple login etc. but they have managed to work around it for the time being.
I haven't experienced any instability with personal routers to be honest.
