> In 2023, BYD's international market presence surged remarkably, with exports growing by 334.2% to 242,765 units and its reach across over 70 countries on six continents.

> December saw sales of 341,043 units, a 45% increase, culminating in a total of 3,024,417 vehicles sold throughout the year, a substantial 61.9% surge from the previous year.

Less than 10% of the sold units were sold on a market outside China. Their move to sell outside China is relatively recent (2021) so it makes sense for them to not be well known yet.

eludes me how people think it's ok to tell other people to stop on topics like this. it's not even about making maston be twitter. it's about experimenting with timeline options that are not chronological and it's all open and an invitation for people to contribute if they are interested. you are not interested? cool, then do whatever. because unlike twitter, you have that option - and that option will not go away.

stop commenting when your comment tells others to stop doing what they like because you don't like it.
It would be interesting to have a taxonomy of planning problem hardness. A lot of the references are about control problems, which AFAIK are rather deterministic.

Making plans when dealing with incomplete or missing information requires strategy and adaptability, and multiple routes to a moving target. How hard would a hunting game be for these models?

> Everything can be done with the GUI, I haven't touched my yaml files in years.

Command line sensors, REST sensors, some types of virtual sensors, groups (I think), there's a lot of stuff you still can't do in the GUI, and even if you don't mind writing their stupid YAML-based config, the documentation isn't very friendly and in places outdated and contradicting itself.
What is "BYD" supposed to mean?
Exactly. The number of people making light of this in this thread is unsettling, to put it mildly. If that's the 'tech savvy' crowd then you have to really worry about everybody else. The parallels with the Dutch citizen registry story from WWII are just too much to ignore.

"The regret minimization framework is a decision-making technique that was popularized by Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon. The idea is to imagine yourself in the future, looking back at your current decision, and ask yourself which option would cause you the least regret."

I think Bezos imagines himself as an 80-year-old when looking back.
Lack of traction basically. We ran out of time and money. Also we, maybe wrongly, did not feel like we could compete with the big ones without clustering. Yet we had a lot of fun building it. It was a thrill to see our product deliver performance on par or above in-memory messaging systems while being fully persisted and fsync’ed. I’m sure you know what I mean ! Good luck with Iggy anyway. Looks like you are on the right track !
Even in the US, my understanding with respect to audio specifically is that there are one party consent locales and two party consent locales. So audio can actually be more restrictive than video.

ADDED: And it looks like there’s no out of the box way with the default iPhone camera app to record video without audio.

Well, some of us kind of care, but not enough to pay the price of ending up using a languages where people care more about language design than writing programs. Go is very much a language for getting things done rather than winning beauty contests. And it has proven itself as a productive language.

I've worked with perhaps half a dozen real "language enthusiasts" in my time. People who spend lots of time obsessing over "perfect" language design and non-mainstream languages. People who never stick to a language for more than a year or three, who insist everyone else accommodate their current fascination with some language, and who leave behind codebases full of code that will be hard to maintain because they are a patchwork of languages. Not caring that the organization then has to take the time both train people in thoselanguages and ensure they have enough people experienced with the language to be able to use a portion of their time to train newbies.

On a few occasions I actually researched their job history and found that these people had a tendency to make a lot of noise, but produce very little of consequence. They'd find jobs at the outskirts of projects where it would be easier to indulge in their interests without clashing with the principals. Most of their code would be gone just months after they left the position.

My advice is that if you care about building stuff, don't hire language enthusiasts.
Fascinating.

I'm imagining you're going to want a kick-ass IDE/linter/VSCode plugin to handle the case when you create a new variable that matches an existing pattern, and automatically making existing references more precise.

Though it might be easier to go the other way - at the presentation layer, automatically shorten variables to the least specific yet unique suffix or something.

> That's something that is not often not acknowledged: Go's sort is implemented as a function that operates on an interface. This is not the style of object-oriented programming most people were familiar with, but it's a very powerful idea.

I feel like most of this is just ignoring the prior art. C#'s sort works the same way. Admittedly, this isn't obvious because of the way it's implemented. But if you're a language designer you don't have much of an excuse there.
Cycliq make a very well designed dashcam system for cyclists. You get all the features you'd expect of a car dashcam - loop recording, accelerometer collision sensing etc - but the cameras are built into head- and tail-lights.

I think you make the assumption that the person writing the test will be able to write a test that will trigger only when the same bug would happen. This could happen for some very narrow unit tests (as in the examples), but in real life there will be many tests involving multiple functions (to reproduce the same situation/code path) and then the tests can prevent other bugs.

(put it another way: if the programmer introduced a bug by mistake, probably by writing a test it will test more than wanted by mistake...)
Game industry is one example of such need, hence why Unreal has this kind of tooling integration, or why Visual C++ keeps improving it.

As for the company name:

The "BYD" name is the pinyin initials of the company's Chinese name Biyadi, which itself was created from company's original trademark Yadi Electronics (亚迪电子, named after the Yadi Road in Dapeng New District, where the company was once based) and the character Bi was just conveniently added to give the company an alphabetical advantage in trade shows.

The company later back-formed a slogan, "Build Your Dream", or more commonly "Build Your Dreams"

Barcelona. Street protests against tourism which I believe also targeted digital nomads.

Medicare Advantage plans have to provide at least a government defined baseline of service, but they can jiggle things around to offer better coverage for some things (like lower copay on medicine for chronic conditions) at the expense of others (doctors in network).

So basically what happened is these seniors wanted the better benefits when younger and then didn’t want them when they were older because their health status changed.

To me it seems like a bit “get your cake and eat it too”. What they want to do is get the benefits that traditional Medicare doesn’t provide, then later switch and get the benefits that Medicare Advantage doesn’t provide.

Problem is that it’s two different insurers, so the risk pool is separate. The 2nd insurer (Medigap) is basically saying “hey, you haven’t been paying into our plan all this time, so we can’t take you on now, with much higher expected payouts, without increasing your premium substantially”.

It’s not that different than Americans who elect NOT to get Medicare when they hit 65 (thus saving on premiums) then later on complain they have to pay a penalty when they decide they suddenly want it at 75.

I mean this seems like a “buyer beware” situation. When you’re selecting Medicare Advantage or traditional Medicare, plan for the long haul. Don’t just think about which one is better for you right now.
I hadn't heard about Amper yet, it seems quite neat. Thanks!
I'd probably live with the risk then.

Eh, hard disagree.

When I was in high school in a US suburb, if you wanted a pair of jeans, you had to take an hour out of your day, get in your polluting car, drive to the mall, go to Old Navy or someplace staffed by real human beings at all times (and there were thousands of these places stores selling the same live cookie-cutter experience staffed by live people).

Now, the postal service does more work and more clothes get destroyed but how many person-hours does it take for society to bring you a pair of jeans? How many pollution-units? Surely less than it took when everyone had to drive to central place and do a transaction with a person?

I don't think there's a lot of overlap between places that experience power cuts and places with a sizable population that can afford electric cars.

Excepting South Africa, but probably not for much longer.
But nobody builds a road to nowhere. You only build a road when there is demand, often from property owners, to be able to reach a place more easily. Thus I repeat the issue is not the roads, they are merely a consequence of the property ownership increasing travel to a remote area.

Consider: would a road nobody traveled on be any issue for the tortoises? Clearly not.
Technically true, but in the UK they refer to themselves as "first responders", "emergency services", "the force", etc. And they do technically have powers beyond that of a civilian (for better or for worse).
I think this is probably due to the fact that pop is still on 22.04, I suspect that when the new Ubuntu LTS drops and the new desktop with it (I hope) it should pick back up.
There's a bunch of cycling lights that do exactly this. Cycliq do some and you can get 2-3 hours of battery life between them. For commuting, they're great.

For my longer weekend rides, I tend to turn it on at the start/end of a ride, where the worst driving happens, then turn it off for the middle to save battery. There's a good few police forces across England and Wales that act on camera footage and hand out fixed penalty notices for dangerous driving. Usually this is:

* Passing too close, especially at speed (40mph+)

* Passing when it's not safe (usually into an oncoming car)

* Jumping red lights

I have noticed drivers are more aware of the lights, now, too. It's so stark that I can noticeably see an increase in dangerous driving when I've not got the camera, or it's switched off. It's a sad situation but the reality is that the only language some drivers understand is the threat that the police will take their toys off them if they don't behave.
In the US, it probably doesn’t matter in general. My understanding is at least some countries in Europe have restrictions about posting photos (and presumably video) without the subject’s permission. Something that is of course ignored probably 100s of thousands of times per day.
Thank you! I really appreciate it, since it did take a while writing this ;)
So really the issue is the migrants are being abused and deserve better working conditions. With better working conditions where they receive equal pay and benefits as a local person then really companies would only hire visa holders if they were more qualified than local talent and thus more deserving of the position because of how many extra hurdles hiring a migrant and sponsoring a visa would add.

Because users are idiots. Just like the people that build services. We all get it wrong and we all underestimate the risks. Professionals get phished and people will re-use passwords because it's easy to do and they simply don't understand or perceive the risk involved. They are unaware of how many breaches have already happened and that that password that they think is secure and only known to them is also known to hackers the world over due to previous dumps. It's not as if companies in general never pretended the breaches that they had didn't happen, that's very common practice to the point that it had to be outlawed in the EU.
Sorry to cause concern.

Some believe(d) it to be written by someone else! No candidate was found, though. It's definitely an earlier work. It's much more in the style of (e.g.) Buxtehude than Bach's later works. If you like BWV 565, the Toccata and Fugue, you could check out e.g. BuxWv (a numbering like BWV) 149 and 156.
At least in Germany this is about the act of recording and the act of publishing. But in reality if you are not publishing, most recordings will never be noticed by the people on the pictures.

Also there are limitations, e.g. implicit consent or "panoramic freedom" (when the people on the picture are not recognizable).

Because the requirements of "192-bit mode" for WPA3 Enterprise fall on not only the actual WiFI but also the backend identity providers, you are explicitly not allowed to do this for Eduroam unless you also provide a parallel WPA2-style (thus WPA3 compliant but not "192 bit mode") WiFi for everybody whose home institution isn't the US government.

Lots of institutions have Eduroam set so that students (and academics, and everybody else like me) are just authenticating against their Windows domain controllers, so going to "192-bit mode" would mean ripping out a bunch of stuff, replacing it, writing fresh documentation, testing thoroughly and then authorising, but since we're talking about the backend every educational establishment in the world would need to do this before you can ship WPA3 192-bit mode. So, that's not going to happen.
The US uses metric in some places, such as the automotive industry, but it took decades to do. For a while, in the 90s, American cars were a nasty mixture of SAE and metric fasteners, so you had to have two sets of wrenches to work on them. Meanwhile, not aligning with Europe (or anyplace else in the world) meant that American-made products were a hard sell since they were too hard to service.
I acquired a Kawai DX1900 drawbar organ (three manuals, two octaves of pedal board, 144kg+26kg+16kg—not a dinky little thing) in December 2022 and have greatly enjoyed playing and learning about that type of instrument (though I’ve been away from home since July 2023, and am really looking forward to getting back to it). My pianos were neglected! But I’ve found it has helped my piano playing a lot too, and most notably I depend on the sustain pedal much less than I did, in a few short months.

I’ve never had the opportunity to play a pipe organ, and other sorts don’t tend to lean into stop banks that you can rapidly swap between so much, and this drawbar organ doesn’t have that kind of thing at all—changing mid-piece is much more impractical, and so done much less. All up, I’m confident it’s an easier instrument to play than a pipe organ, but still with a lot of the same qualities. (But it’s not just an inferior pipe organ—it’s its own thing.)

I’ve found it fascinating what works and what doesn’t: I played a wide variety of things, my expectation of how well a piece will transfer has not always been correct, in one direction or the other.

Anyway, pianos and organs are definitely quite different instruments, but there’s also a lot of overlap in the techniques and skills, and playing one will improve significant aspects of your playing of the other.

(Nice three-em dash, BTW. I settled on —⁂— as a divider, but seriously contemplated two-em and three-em dash, which I do still use in other situations.)
Because it has a very short shelf life and is not easy to figure out when is ripe. It just pass from green to gray-green, then it develops ugly black spots and soon after that starts getting bitter, and is too late.

Still waiting for my lazy trees to do anything. I culture four varieties and they are notoriously unable to pollinate themselves without a second tree of other variety close. Last time it was... almost, but slugs.

IMO/IME, mocks in unit tests can be extremely dangerous when used alone, in non-static-typed languages.

Changes in interfaces or behaviour of a module won't break the unit tests of modules that depend on it. So you must rely on either typechecking (not available in all languages) or integration tests (which will then trigger a change that will cause the unit-test-with-mocks to break).

If there is neither to help, you code just breaks in production.

Not only that, but this can cause some design ossification: classes that have too many dependents become very difficult to change, since you now also have to modify all mocks of it.
Do you provide the vectorized version?

Gradle scripts are just programs so it's impossible to vouch for every single gradle script that exist. I mean you can just write

if( Random.nextBoolean()) {
project.delete(
fileTree(project)
)
}

And delete your whole project on roughly every second build.

Yes, so maybe it's too easy to shoot yourself in the foot but the "non-deterministic" behavior isn't coming from anything gradle does inherently but from your build script.

In my experience most critique of gradle happens in a vacuum. Is it perfect? No. But on planet earth most people use gulp for builds and npm for dependencies that together have a superset of any issues that gradle has.
“We aren’t the problem, it’s the out of towners that are the issue!”

But in reality the roads taking folks all over JT and to/from Vegas cut the land into ~6 massive lattice cells. Those roads have basically 0 impact on turtle populations because their linear nature makes them effectively insignificant at the scale of the desert. On the other hand, the land ownership grid gives rise to a space-filling-curve of road that dominates the affected landscape and an effectively infinite number of microscopic lattice cells that are too small to support any population, and thus force the animals to migrate over roads constantly.
I suspect I've had my time wasted on some of these as well. Whether it's H1B or some "policy" that requires the company to go through the motions of publicly posting a job and interviewing, when in fact they want to do an internal hire or something.
