Car sharing is mostly about the 300+$/month you spend on a parking space and insurance not the minimum car you can own.

I used to drive so rarely car sharing would have saved me several thousand per year and been less of a hassle because I could skip annual inspections, gas stabilization, etc. Driving weekly and owning a car is probably worth it but drive quarterly and it’s a hassle.
> That doesn't mean they wouldn't ever replace their ICE car with an EV if the range story were better (meaning the range of the vehicle itself as well as the charging story).

TBH, that is mostly a communication problem. Tesla already does much better than most non-EV types realize. A shocking number of people think road trips require literal multi-hour charging stops. "I heard from this Tesla owner that he only charges overnight... I'd have to stop at a hotel every 200 miles!" sigh

Consumer education is still important.

Outside of a Tesla... road tripping EVs in the US is often not fun.
There's a troubling/fascinating implication here: generally we just want to 'do the thing', but it's rarely that simple.

Often to be able to just 'do the thing' you have to game out a bunch of this political/strategic stuff, and start maneuvering across those dimensions, in order to create or maintain the conditions under which you can just keep doing the thing.

Yet the more you do that, and the more you think in that way, the less of the thing you're doing...
So it's part of the cost. Most people travelling long distance fly and rent a car at the far end.

Would you pay an extra $500 a month to avoid having to spend $1000 renting a car twice a year? Probably not, so the question is how much more does it cost to not rent the long distance car.

And I've never rented a car where a 1mm scratch would require fixing, nor a 1cm scratch

But even the Looshaus, the example of an at the time scandalously unornamented building -- on first glance at the picture, seemed to me more comfortable, asthetically pleasing, human-centered, and spirit-raising than most contemporary new construction.

So what's that about?

Is the Looshaus, even though unornamented for the time, still more ornamented than contemporary standard? Or is it about something other than ornamentation? Or is it just my own personal judgement which is unusual or wrong (based only a picture, not being there in person) -- what do people generally think of the Looshaus today?
> Or maybe they just bought the vans from U-Haul and never repainted them?

I believe that when U-Haul (and other rental companies) sell their old vehicles, they remove or paint over the business-related markings first.
Okay, this is a useful example as it's salient for me. Especially as a relatively recent pivoter into tech, I've been willing to jump on whatever is needed and generally am able to figure things out and make it work. In my current position, at a small SaaS with layoffs and churn, this has led to me basically owning 3-4 roles' worth of tasks. Mostly completely unrelated to one another and very stressful due to the constant context switching. I appreciate your perspective here, this is something concrete I can work on.
Yeah, they'd need to add EVSEs with load sharing. Fortunately, that'd be cost effective if there were many customers clamoring for it.
I think its a bit of a stretch to lump exercise simply into medical/health advice. I wouldn't tell you to go on YouTube to diagnose an illness you may have. But OP asked for guides on at home workouts and I think that YouTube is more than sufficient and safe for learning about what different exercises may be available.
The quickness feels good for sure.

The other advantage is environmental responsibility.

The pre-pollution you speak of is a myth, because after one year of use the total pollution crosses over in favor of the electric car. Even if the electricity is sourced from the worst source, coal burning, the net result is still a win for electric because electric drive trains use energy so much more efficiently than gas.
People have range anxiety because the electric range estimates are just that - estimates. If not lies. I have a '22 RAV4 Prime. I had a '17 Volt for 3 years before that. I'm aware of how it works. Here's real world for you, NW Arkansas: I'm 24 miles from Lowe's round trip. 11 miles freeway, the rest is country highway. 42 miles of "range" on my RAV4 this time of year, when I return home I have 6 to 7 miles remaining. It's off by 20% or more.

Do you think I could go to Tulsa and back, 212 miles round trip, this Saturday in an all electric thing? Cherokee turnpike for a large portion of it, cruise control at 82 mph.

I think a lot of you city dwellers need to re-examine how you think "flyover states" work. But I know you won't, as you don't care about us, so you'll just keep these wrong thoughts in your head pushing policy on us from afar. It's working great for relations in our country so far, keep it up.

Transportation engineer here.

They are much fewer, and they do tend to have different travel patterns than other vehicles, and there is an equivalent average daily traffic for truck traffic where you convert each truck into a large number of other vehicles.

When you do that, the wear due to truck traffic still absolutely dominates almost always.
Would have been nice to accept other JVM languages like Scala, Clojure, Kotlin, etc and compare against Java, which I expect to have slightly better performance.
Let's be fair to the title: 'giant' is in inverted commas, and the article is pretty straight to the point and does not try to drag on the expectation that the worm was 100s of meters long (or alive, but I was expecting a fossil). It does say, however, that it is the biggest knRecopiez le code 53587468 pour accéder à vos comptes Caisse d'Epargne.

I was a bit disappointed by the size at first, but I actually found the article very interesting in a lot of aspects: how 30cm was giant at the time, how worms were the dominating family, and yet how similar they were to modern day worms are quite fascinating to me.
You're right about submarine fibers, but you seem to suggest that the pump light for the laser amplifiers is transmitted through the fiber from the cable landing point - like the technology discussed in the OP.

That is certainly not the case, the pump light is generated from electricity right where the laser amplifier sits in the fiber. No real amounts of energy are sent optically down the fiber. To power the amplifier, a high voltage DC line is designed right into the submarine fiber cable. And those things carry a lot of power, a long fiber cable will draw tens of kilowatts of DC for all the optical repeaters.

The reason is, of course, that thousands of miles of cable has a pretty insane optical attenuation, no matter what you do, because optical attenuation rises exponentially with length. The electrical resistance of a high voltage DC power line only rises linearily, on the other hand.
> But Toyota, for example, has been making hybrids for, hmmm, a quarter of a century.

Sure, but that's not very long. 25 years after ICE cars were invented they weren't nearly as affordable as a Prius is today.

> US manufacturers have been maliciously compliant. [2]

I don't understand how they can be (who is the manufacturer blindly obeying the orders of?).
Agreed. A 40W 1550nm laser I used in grad school would burn post it notes readily and slowly burn black painted objects. It gave me a little burn once too (Was like touching a hot stove). 1.5W focused to 100 um would be a zinger, but at 4 mm would be not super dangerous thermally.

The main risk is you couldn’t see it so no blink reflex to help from even specular reflections.

Regardless, it would be reckless to expose this to people without eye protection.
As a kid I thought the shuttle was awesome. As an adult I'm horrified by it. Damn near every tile was custom and snowflake. Orbiter had to be stripped down to the frame every launch. Tanks required major refurbishing... Massive gaping black hole of endless funding that bled NASA dry for years. My suburban school system failed teaching anything whatsoever about the Saturn V. Everything in the 80's and 90's catered to the space truck, even after the tragedies and slow launch schedules. It did a great job at keeping kids interested in big-space after the cold war ended though.
I'm not buying an electric car because they are twice as expensive, still.
It's not. That's an old picture from last year.
This is really underrated by people who haven't experienced it.
I agree, but Tesla's charging network actually works, has lots of stations, and charges batteries reasonably quickly. Now that other manufacturers are adopting it, the range issue seems mostly solved, for anyone who doesn't travel long distances so frequently that a few extra minutes per trip are a serious burden.

They're just not used a lot, at least in the UK, so they'll appear in supermarkets occasionally (perhaps only once/season) as a limited batch. Otherwise you could get them at the market or a 'pick your own' farm which (IME at least) tend to have more berry varieties than anywhere else.

The entire point of ownership is to hedge against right-tail demand scenarios. If you don't care about them, you should just rent everything and own nothing at all. "Own nothing and be happy", as they say. You will just occasionally find yourself screwed when demand is high.

Probably we should let people decide for themselves what level of hedging is appropriate.

It's not just single trips - sometimes it's the cumulative distance of multiple trips throughout the week. Sometimes I can't charge in my garage or just the fact that charging is slow and I can't get a full charge in before leaving again causes the range to go down over time.

Luckily I drive a plug in hybrid but it still is an issue!
Hmmm. I've charged publicly ~100 times on the Tesla network (mostly cross-country, but some long city stays) and I've had to wait briefly twice.
This is not unexpected at all. 10 years ago I had a dual boot system, occasionally trying out games on Linux. Some of them worked out of the box, some of them worked after configuration, and some of them were totally borked. This year, I built a gaming PC, installed Arch Linux, installed Steam, installed Cyberpunk 2077, hit the green play button and that's it, I can play recent AAA games without any problem. There are still issues around anti-cheat systems though, especially around the kernel-level ones.

I gave it up and switched back in November 2022. While I always keep my options open and an eye out for what makes sense for me, I haven't seen any signs that the situation is radically different in general. It certainly hasn't changed for me personally.

> I simply do not believe range anxiety is still the problem it once was.

Maybe but that says very little. If your waiter told they don't believe the soup contains anywhere near the amount of spit it once did you wouldn't feel encouraged. I'm happy if the situation is improving and if I still care about owning a car in the future I'll surely reassess if that critical threshold was reached. Anything short of that will get a "very good, keep up the good work" but not my money.

Which department are you talking about? If your department doesn't drive revenue, then the business leaders will see it as a cost center. It doesn't matter if you disagree with that perspective unless you can change their minds. How have you done that in the past, or hypothetically how do you think that might work?
I've been lucky enough to go to a few folk art museums around the world. Buildings made by peasants can be richly ornamented, a stark contrast to the landscape, or fitting in with it. The designs showcase their craftsmanship, their relationship to their faith, their connection to their culture, and to the natural world. It reminds one of what it means to be a human who cares about more than function. Art and culture may not be the sole domain of humans, but it's one we've mastered. The spaces we live in and around should be filled with it.

I recently created a Enterprise SaaS prototype with the help of freelancers that potential customers have been giving great feedback.

I have 10-15 Enterprise customers committed (Bitcoin, Sofi, TIAA) to being part of the Beta and I'm only a few weeks away from kicking off.

I don't do any development. I'm a domain expert in the industry and have a background in Enterprise Sales/BD.

I'd be really interested in bringing on a Co-Founder. And I want to move fast.

I'd love someone that can do most of the dev work on their own, work fast and iterate. We're working with vector databases (FAISS, Langchain) and OpenAI, stack is React/Python/RDS.

I think its a fair target to say we could get to $50k in ARR within 6 months and $100k in ARR within 12 months.

This is a decentralized exchange (DEX) project that allows users to trade and earn with Bitcoin without relying on central points of failure, replacing malicious intermediaries with PSBTs, Atomic Swaps, layer 2 smart contracts, sBTC and decentralized liquidity pools - unlocking the full potential of Bitcoin.
The requirements we are assessing are as follows:
- Clarity
- Lisp + Python or Lisp only
- Typescript

In certain other emergencies however, routine disembarkation is the preferred way to deboard the plane.
It's tax deductable extremely few places (US and Norway are the only generous ones I'm aware of; I'm sure there are more, but it's not all that common) and decidedly not in the UK. And you're right the money I give to AirBnB is gone forever, so I do need to take that into account.

However there are other issues to take into account: 1) it's not a given the added value of a room will be as high as the cost of adding it, and it can severely prolong the time before you're in the black. E.g. my house is one of the largest on my street already, and that typically results in a lower return for adding additional space, 2) you need to also consider whether the cost to cover the needs you otherwise would meet by adding a room is met by more, the same or less than the amount adding the room adds to your mortgage payments. If it is less, then it takes fairly little less before you're able to increase your capital faster by putting the difference in an index fund at the point in time when most of your mortgage payments still go towards interest.

By all means, it can pay off to build, and odds are I in fact will add a room to my house over the coming year whether or not it will be profitable. I'm not saying you shouldn't. Just that it's worth doing the numbers and figuring out what actually works best for you (and, yes, that does include factoring in equity) and sometimes the right choice for you might not be what is financially most prudent anyway. But it's worth going into it having run the numbers.
So I actually tested your code: https://gist.github.com/bjourne/c2d0db48b2e50aaadf884e4450c6...

On my machine single-threaded OpenBLAS (called via NumPy) multiplies two single precision 4096x4096 matrices in 0.95 seconds. Your code takes over 30 seconds when compiled with clang++. And yes I used -O3, -march=native, and all that jazz. Btw, your code crashes g++ which doesn't necessarily mean that it is incorret, but it indicates that the code may be difficult for the compiler to optimize. For comparison, my own matrix multiplication code (https://github.com/bjourne/c-examples/blob/master/libraries/...) run in single-threaded mode takes 0.89 seconds. Which actually beats OpenBLAS, but OpenBLAS retakes the lead for larger arrays when multi-threading is added. You can look at my code for how to write a decent inner kernel. Writing it in pure C without intrinsics and hoping that the compiler will optimize it definitely will not work.

It also is not true that "Parallelism would be easy to add". Unless your algorithm is designed from the start to exploit multi-threading, attempting to bolt it on later will not yield good performance.
It was confusing for me too.

Basically:
