Fun fact for the non-Australians, the actor who plays Bandit is part of an awesome indie-rock band named Custard formed in the late 80s. Worth checking out if you're into that sort of thing.

> With ICE I don't have to worry about any of that.

You don’t really do that with EVs either. The navigation system takes all of that into account, including live metrics such as temperature, wind, weather, and elevation. It takes the guesswork out of non-trivial tasks.

The only valid issue is the poorly maintained Electrify America chargers for non-Tesla EVs.

But that’s about to change in the U.S., since pretty much everyone is adopting the NACS/SAE J340 Standard. This will make them compatible with Tesla Superchargers.

Apps like ABRP also exist, which are even compatible with level 2 charging:

You'll find that, often, if not always, if you buy directly from a publisher, the ebook will be free with the paperback purchase. (Manning is one example, not sure about others off hand.) However, if someone is buying your book from Amazon, the paperback is one SKU and the ebook is another, and there's no easy to way to include the book away for free. So I think that's basically your answer.

For some context, after publishing my first book with O'Reilly, I decided to start a small publishing business in an effort to capture more revenue as well as experiment with continuous publishing (you buy one edition, I keep it up to date for a couple of years). I've written three books, with the last (Bulletproof TLS and PKI) being the best and the only one still relevant.

When we first started, we offered paperback and ebook options, with ebook free with paperback purchase. We had 3 virtual warehouses in the US, UK, and Europe. It was fun for a while, but we lost money on every paperback sale as we couldn't compete with Amazon on shipping costs (plus additional overhead of dealing with shipping problems). You have to pay your printer, shipping costs to the warehouses, order fulfilment, and shipping costs. Then insurance when something goes wrong, even if it's not our fault.

At some point we stopped selling paperback books, but we continued to offer free ebooks with a proof of purchase. This, too, ended up being a money-losing venture, because we make little money on each book, with most of the money going to the printer (print on demand is great, but expensive, and Amazon takes 40% of the list price.)

Today, we sell ebooks on our web site, and paperbacks via Amazon. We're nice people so we may give you a free ebook if you ask, but that's not a good way to run a business. It's fortunate, then, that we're not in it for the money.

To sum up it up: Amazon is the dominant sales channel. If they offered paperback and ebook distribution (Kindle, pub, and PDF—mandatory if you care about the user experience), we'd happily sell only through them and give everyone a free ebook with paperback purchase. We'd give Amazon the standard 40% (the minimum for paperbacks, not sure that it is for ebooks these days).
Please explain your logic more clearly, I don't see the connection you're making between the occupations you mentioned and men dressing up to make an offensive mockery of women in the way they do for drag.
If the headless server has a UI process running that is absolutely wasted resources. Having the same environment for the dev's laptop and the server seems like such a waste of resources. The two things are not the same, so don't try to fit the square peg in the round hole. Whatever these differences are, they should be able to be determined and accounted for in the deployment.

To me, we've gotten a bit lazy and a bit too focused on the wrong things. I feel like this happened when we started running javascript on the server. That was such a shock to the system and all sorts of things had to be done since it just was not the normal way of doing things. Someone decided it'd just be easier to clone the dev's system and deploy that as a server. Like what the actual... I also totally feel the same way about running a Windows Server. Like why on gawds good earth would you ever think that was a good idea?

That's the first step - analyze anything you can get your hands on, identify issues and theories, test them, and use that information going forward.

An easy first step would be "plastic packaged products" - test and see if there's a correlation there.
We can't lump Lisp and Haskell into the same category. Whenever Lisp did something first, it was always easy to understand and use, compared to the twisted reinventions. The reinventions are Jack Skellington's imitation of Christmas.

About the only criticism you could lob at the Lisp original feature would be some low-brow grumble about parentheses.
My parents were quite cautious drivers, and they did practically everything very locally, and often eschewed freeways if it were at all possible for their routes.

My father kept a meticulous log of mileage and gasoline fill-ups in a pocket notebook that stayed in his car's center console. If we filled the tank but didn't update the notes, we'd catch hell for it.

Another indispensable auto accessory was the Thomas Guide. We had Thomas Guide maps for every conceivable nook and cranny of our extended metropolitan area, and also for places we nearly never traveled. And I loved these books. They had such layers of meaning in the colors and symbols. You could literally get lost among the pages and learn so much about your local topology, in terms of streets and roads and blocks.

So it was nigh-impossible for me to get lost, even as a novice teen driver, when that Thomas Guide was right in a seat pocket. I absolutely never needed to ask directions. I usually planned out trips in advance, especially the unfamiliar locales; it was easy to pinpoint a destination in Thomas Guide and then work towards it.

The interesting thing is that I was also a rather local motorist and there were many, many parts of the city where I never learned the streets, because I had no reason to drive there. Contrast that with the place where I live today: we've got an incredibly rigorous grid system with predictable numbering, and so if you show me an arbitrary address, I can tell you exactly what the cross-street and region it's in and give directions, without even glancing at cartographic aids.

How Microsoft tells you to use Copilot isn't how Copilot tells you to use it
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/copilot-ai-features

This is just one of many pages telling you the various ways in which Copilot should be used. They include non-Windows and non-Bing related gems like:

* Where do people travel for culinary experiences?

* I'm looking for handmade furniture for my small apartment

* Create a table that helps me plan meals for the next two weeks

And text and image generation. That's great, that's wonderful, that's just begging for me to ask a question as part of a larger conversation. Erm...

I am here to help you with your queries and tasks related to Microsoft Bing and Windows. If you have any questions or requests related to those topics, I will be happy to assist you.

So now you only want to talk to me on how to use Bing and Windows. Dear Microsoft, I would judge my question as relevant to Bing and Windows as any of the example questions.

If we're building AI platforms that cannot be brave enough to call Hitler a douchenozzle we might be doing it wrong.
My initial reaction was similar. I use the menu key, but rarely. I will certainly never use a copilot key.
I'm Australian living in UK for 10 years - I haven't watched it, but a friend who's a parent talks to me about it and I've seen clips and it makes me nostalgic about things that I've completely forgotten. Like "crumbed or battered" fish, or "bush wee".

I love the job description, but won't apply because the instructions on how to apply are too weird: "Attach these as two separate PDF documents with the filenames: '<your name> CV.pdf' and '<your name> Cover Letter.pdf'". Why? Do you want to automatically parse the applications and need structured data? Then why not developing a form with actual inputs? That's akin to asking the applicants to send their data in JSON format in the emails' body.
Echoing the responses from other commenters here that this problem is mostly created by people trying to control what other people do with their own bodies. Its really a sad reality that our society seeks to have so much control over other peoples bodies, uses violence to try to enforce that control then cries "I dont want my kids to live in a world with this violence". Somehow killing, beating and locking people in cages fixes all our problems if we just do it enough? Not working? Just kill beat and lock more people in cages that will fix it surely.
I hope this is implemented as an additional modifier instead of a macro type key combo. The more modifier keys on typical keyboards the merrier!
Maybe a decade of doing ruby has rotted my brain, but I love `unless`, and use it often.

Yes, every `unless` could be rewritten with an `if` instead, certainly. But I like the implication of weight these keywords carry in English language. `unless` implies it's a minor condition, that the majority of runs should fall on the opposite side of the conditional, where as `if` does not -- both weights of the condition feel potentially equivilant-ish.

I like having the application on my machine so I can use it without permission or contact with the remote server, at least after licensing is completed. I find myself working offline more than you might imagine, and I also run desktop software that is 10 to 20 years old pretty regularly. I shudder to imagine what will happen to today's generation of SaaS software once it is past commercial viability. Probably it will be lost forever, unlike stuff from the 90s and 00s that still runs fine.
I suspect (though perhaps I’m naively optimistic) you may be doing the affected users an injustice. Most people will either practically never experience these error pages, or be familiar with them and their causes because they know their internet connection is dodgy at times.

I would add to that the fact that some people are even able to get past pretty amazing difficulties and still manage to be happy. So maybe even these "sources of unhappiness" are not fixed.

I think there are enough limitations with the current tech that this isn't a big concern at the moment, otherwise we would certainly be seeing these types attacks in Ukraine. But the field is evolving incredibly quickly and it's possible this becomes viable in the future.

Some current drawbacks I can think of:

* Small drones carrying a load generally have a short range, which could make launching such an attack (and surviving the response) difficult.

* Coordination is hard. Manually controlled drone frequencies can conflict. There have been some automated sky displays that went well, but attacking a busy hardened target is much more difficult and I don't think the autonomous software is good enough yet.

* Cost in terms of money, time, and risk. Jerry-rigging drones with improvised explosives is time consuming and dangerous, plus 100 drones cost money.

* Jamming can protect a specific area from drones
You are describing the actual malice standard which only applies to public figures. Also, an accusation of that type would be considered "defamation per se" which would mean that there is not a need to prove damages. According to my layman understanding.

Interestingly the balance was for multiplayer and they didn't update single player missions to accommodate the changes. I liked to replay the single player campaign periodically, and there was one base infiltration mission that became insanely difficult due to the balance changes. I'm fuzzy on the details but it was related to static defense buffs (protoss cannons if I recall), that meant the limited number of units you were stuck with for the mission couldn't reliably get past what was supposed to be a simple blockade without significantly upping your micro game.

Yeah I have always backed up to external drives and had cloud storage. But now I learn there isn’t rot, so I have to either build a RAID and have refresh software that rewrites and validates, or just buys a new drive every 3 years and backup all over again. And that’s a simple setup.

The article discusses that AMD is used to re-using prior gens tech. While that's true I think the main point missing there is that this is standard practice in industry. Intel does it too. There simply isn't enough progress every year to release a new arch and/or die shrink.

Out of curiosity, who was this? Corruption rarely ranks as a material issue in most races. If the bread-and-butter issues aren't in play, it's usually a culture/dignity contest.
AFAIK, it's because they can easily become toxic and immensely time-consuming.

Personally, I haven't seen that failure mode, although I also haven't been in a situation where it'd come up.
It's how every sigma-delta DAC works, basically. Less snappy headline though.
The title reminded me of bidding to Network Rail in UK to help them manage keeping diagrams of the railway up to date showing schematics/not-to-scale with things like:
* logical track segment IDs
* points
* switches/controls for electricity for segments
* lights
* other key items

This was more about health and safety, being able to schedule maintenance etc and ensure electric rail turned off.

Fascinating to discover that the "current" (HEAD) version of the documents for certain parts of the track were from the original Victorian era (pre-1900) diagrams when things like tunnels were first created!
