> The diff is value he brings.

At this stage, I'd say Elon is a negative value for the company.

I've seen more than one Tesla with a bumper sticker that says something to the effect of "I bought this before I knew Elon was a twat".

People are tired of his lies about FSD. They hate Cybertruck (I don't believe the CT reservation numbers). They hate how he's gone full right-wing nutjob. They hate his handling of Twitter. Every time he opens his mouth (or tweets, really), it just creates more negative PR for himself, which then makes Tesla look worse.

I own a Tesla myself. I think kicking out Elon would be the best thing they can do for the company. Sure, his huge ego and personality gave Tesla a MASSIVE boost without needing any marketing, but it's no longer needed. Tesla is a household name at this point, and all the fame has gotten to his head.

Elon needs to go.
I feel like you are purposefully derailing the discussion.

First of all the French Resistance was dedicated to the destruction of Vichy France and Nazy Germany, and the ANC was dedicated to the destruction of Apartheid South Africa. The current Hamas charter only calls for the destruction of Zionist Israel, not for Israel as a nation.

Second of all, I stated before that the only relevant comparison, and the only comparison I ever made, was that they operate from occupied territory and against their occupiers. How far they go against their occupiers is indeed irrelevant, like we have both pointed out.

Israel does occupy Gaza, and they have since 1967, no matter how much you deny it. And as such, they bare full responsibility for what goes on in there. Off course any terrorists from Gaza are responsible for their own actions, and should be charged in a court of law. But Israel cannot fight those terrorists by causing mass civilian casualty inside the territory they control. And if they do, any collateral damage they cause, is their responsibility, and a crime they must answer too.
If we talk about the OpenAI magnitude of money it's definitely precluded, that's way beyond fair.

I graduated with an MBA in 2008 from a top 10-ish school, just before the Great Recession. I had no desire to be an entrepreneur. I pursued the consulting track and landed a full-time offer from my summer internship, but I got laid off in 2009 along with about half of the firm. After that, I did contract consulting jobs for a year and ended up working on a project in China. As that project ended, I still couldn't find a suitable permanent MBA-level job, so I started my own consulting firm in China, which later became a contract manufacturing company. About 14 years later, I am still running my own company. There have been plenty of years I haven't been able to pay myself a salary of $180 grand a year like these top MBAs expect to start now. But, I also had a few good years where my company put over $1M in the bank. Now, it's nice to mostly work on whatever I want to think about every day. Economic cycles happen, just must make your own future.
Why should a multi-billion dollar business or a million other projects trust my code simply because GitHub made me 2FA to sign in? I may well decide the next push rewrites half the project in a breaking way on a whim or get an offer for $100k to give control of the project to the bad actor or just decide I don't like big corp anyway and be the bad actor myself.

Turning providing source code into promising you'll follow other's desires on how it should be worked on is a recipe for disaster while simultaneously not really making hobby projects low risk to rely on anyways.
I drove to the UP and back the last few days with a 2019 Model 3 SR+ (mentioning this so people understand the range I was working with) with no issues besides increased charging stops because of road and weather conditions. This issue is a specific issue with this charger and the location. This sucks for all the drivers with dead cars, but I feel like the situation is being mischaracterized by this shallow news article. There were failures on Tesla the company to mark this charger as inoperable so the route planner would not use it and for them to not repair the location in a timely manner. There has been a lot of discussion in the Tesla and Chicago subreddit about what is happening in the area to cause this situation with these chargers, so it would be nice to get more information from Tesla itself.

Oh and yes this is not just an EV issue. Just sharing my experience of my car being totally fine traveling in this weather.
Sorry, this was a joke about the decline of "Gabe's" artistic output. I'd find midjourney's output repulsive no matter what it looked like.

It's an unused account as I created a new one using my company email! Every account has started somewhere? I'm a new hire to market the side projects we are starting on and getting user feedback, understanding the problem more to solve it.

And yes, the current model cannot scale for sure as there's a human piece at the end. We aren't looking to scale at the moment, just exploring if there can be a solution to this space we can come up with.

Again, like I mentioned above, just looking for users we can actually help as this is a common problem many face if they aren't at a big organization.

Also mentioned this isn't our main business, something we are experimenting with hence we are in closed beta and offering to do it for free for only a few. We have human labour costs to lol

We offer to install it for you for ease or can guide you on installing it yourself, and we will obviously be signing NDAs and whatever a user would like to build trust.

I feel like nobody really cares about optimization anymore. It's just "ship, ship, ship, move faster, ship." So there's a lot of tech-debt, a lot of unoptimized code, and a lot of "just make it work", at the expense of writing software that utilities the hardware properly.

On the flip side of that though, hardware has gotten fast enough, where this is possible.
Yes, the entire post (it's short) is well worth a read.
I was going to mention it too.

Though after billions of billions made in TT/OpenTTD and whatever imaginable railroad systems it lost most of it's magic for me. Every once in a while I install it, browse and add some mods (FISH of course) and... after I'm on +300% profit each year it starts to get boring.
That's nice, personally it takes me about 400 ms to start a linux kernel with qemu (more time is spent by qemu initializing its network interfaces that starting the kernel and the init!)

I'll see which tricks can be reused on linux, as I'd love to cut that by 1 order of magnitude!

I still don't get it. Why are they upset? Nothing has been taken from them. There is no alternative in midjourney that sates anyone's desire to read their comic. Just as many people are going to visit the page for the comic, if not more. Why are they complaining?
The Twitter files and subsequent reporting show that the USA used a similar system to mold public opinion around COVID response, then around the 202 election.

Seems to me that objecting to this instance of PR without objecting to the previous instances is "arguing over price."

I recently switched an old PHP project from sending me emails directly via SMTP to using mailgun. At first I tried to use their SDK. It pulled in like a dozen dependencies. I gave up on that idea and replaced it with a simple curl call.
And like those failed projects, this has the same fatal flaw: you need that offshore or high altitude server to connect to a base station on Earth in order to connect the server to the rest of the Internet. The authorities where those base stations are located don't look kindly on this one weird trick to evade sovereignty.
I thought this was more of a reference to Facebook, etc. I could be wrong, though, it's pretty vague.

My favorite use of a PID controller in Unity was to act as a camera operator for a VR football game.

We used cameras for the screen-display (we could either show you the VR player's perspective, or one of several cameras), and for the jumbotron in the stadium. This ended up being really cool for downfield throws. When you bombed the ball 45 yards to a receiver, it could be a little hard to see the action. It was really natural to be able to glance up at the jumbotron in the stadium to get a closer view of what's happening downfield.

A small custom little PID controller worked really well for tracking the ball in flight, and giving a more natural "human operated" camera feel than perfectly tracking the ball.

We'd also randomly vary the terms within a set range for different virtual camera operators, so you'd get a little bit of variance in the tracking between different cameras and different play sessions.

Also a lot of pretty fun "bugs" from badly tuned PIDs.
It would be good to see how much it changes if you only include work that is public domain.
I stopped reading when the author started to lean into how this must be a representation of "whiteness." No, how about it's an artifact of Internet enabled oligarchic capitalist technocracy like you started with? Ironically, the author's performative racism is part of the same trend.
Fixed, should have specified "unpaid labor." Hopefully that makes it clear.
The same reason there's been a huge resurgence in rediscovering "artisanal" methods in many fields.

The same reason that photorealism as an artistic movement still exists despite photography existing.

The same reason people still learn to play the piano.
Corporate bootlickers frown upon developers restricting corporate uses of their software.

The OSI is run by corporations, for corporations, and has successfully run propaganda campaigns to shit on source available licenses purely on the basis of them not being bootlicker enough.

No. There is absolutely nothing wrong with restricting how corporations can use your code. Fuck the OSI.
"Art" will move into a direction that's harder to copy, artists will use ML models to help them create, people will develop a sense of what is AI generated and it will begin to feel cheap. It's already pretty obvious, like the blog posts with AI generated images on the top. There's already a trend of people taking out of focus and motion blurred selfies.

In whatever direction it takes, art will find what is difficult or obvious for AI to fake and then that will be valued.

Think of it like this, aluminum used to be prized by kings, honored guests would get aluminum cutlery instead of gold. Aluminum got cheap, there are still fancy spoons.
Abstractions only _really_ exist in your mind as all abstractions (at least in software) are implemented with the lower level of that abstraction (which itself is an abstraction and so on)

So it could be argued that the abstraction isn’t _actually_ different than the sum of its lower level parts. It’s your understanding as a human (potentially and probably shaped by your society) that makes the abstraction easier to understand than the lower level bits.

A shared understanding (at least between an author of an abstraction and the lower level components it’s built from) is required for a software author to make any abstractions anyway.

This is a specific issue with the charging station these people were trying to charge at. The article makes very clear that the cars were towed to a functional charging station. Edit: As pointed out by someone else, this is functionally no different than a gas station's pumps freezing themselves out of operation.

Take this for what it's worth, but it feels like your comment was written flippantly and with a deep-seated bias.

I am working on a search engine that checks a site for affiliate links from known providers and demotes sites that have a large amount of them.

In addition:

* it demotes sites with popups (think newsletter sign ups)

* it demotes sites that block (or complain about) ad blockers

* it demotes sites with a high number of ads and favors sites with no ads

* it demotes sites using certain sketchy ad companies.

* It demotes sites that have paywalls

* It detects possible link networks and flags them for human review/removal.

* sites with RSS feeds get promoted.

* There is a toggle to hide all sites with ads or external trackers, but it is still WIP (The whole project is).

There are many other features. No idea if I am going to make it public, I created it to update my skillset. I actually thought about setting up a nonprofit and making it open source, but I haven’t decided.
So I’m toying with my own database implementation and I’m getting ~20M writes per second. The write operation is a critical path that takes 1/20Mhz (ie 50ns). A sampling profiler will only capture max 1000hz (and even that is pushing it). And a hot spot here is 5-10ns probably. And similarly it could very well be memory transfer costs vs cpu which I’ve found hard to distinguish.

I’ve had luck with valgrind but just reading individual instructions has been uninformative as the code path is too complex for that kind of analysis.
Hydro dams prove that it’s possible, but they require being blessed by geography/topology.
IPFS does not in any way involve a blockchain.

There's a separate "layer on top of IPFS" called Filecoin that does involve a blockchain. (From a technical point of view, it's not really a layer on top, more of a re-implementation of IPFS with a blockchain.)

I've worked on IPFS and know many of the key people at PL. They really are not blockchain people or cryptobros. They are much different from anyone else in crypto I have encountered. But ultimately they have to fund their activities somehow, and this is the reality of where the business potential is in P2P circa mid-2020s.

Is Economic Growth Good for Population Health? A Critical Review
Not just a hybrid but a series-type hybrid. Electric motors drive the wheels and the gas engine is just there to generate electricity.

At every level of society I see products being designed for the "best case" only. For example, unlocking your car with electronic keys.

I am afraid a generation will have to live through "hard times" in order to get us thinking about resilience again and planning for the "worst case".

A friend hypothesized that a lot of Tesla drivers charge the same way they refilled their gas cars, by waiting until the last minute and supercharging back up to "full". This doesn't work when it's so cold so people need to learn to charge a little at a time.
going to take some HN karma hit for this but i just don't get it. the price of anything you sell (or do not wish to give away for free) is not how much it cost to build but how much someone else is willing to pay for it.

If you think the work is so great. charge for it. let the market decide. i think twitter/x does this now somewhat.

how is this not similar to thinking google owes me money because my tweet appeared in their search results?

Life happens, but in theory debt just pushes the profitability into the future (i.e. when you retire). A farm struggling with cashflow and its operators living in poverty doesn't mean they don't have multi-millions in assets available to sell at some point. That is why one accepts the debt, after all.

Farming isn't much different than the tech landscape. You can build a small business that reaches profitability immediately, but your upside will be severely limited, or you can go full unicorn and make nothing for years and then (hopefully) hit the jackpot when you sell.

It is faulty to think that, generally, farming is a business for making a living. That's not why, generally, someone farms. Generally, they are there to build wealth, which some people find to be more important than having a decent yearly income and without anything to show for it at the end of the day. Different tradeoffs, is all.

> Running a first-class restaurant is risky enough; running a farm is even riskier.

As it happens, I also operate a restaurant. There is no way farming is more risky. In an individual year it may be, but you go into farming knowing that the business ebbs and flows in a reasonably predictable manner and design your operation around that. The restaurant industry, on the other hand, has no rhyme nor reason. Something as simple as hiring the wrong server can start to really tear your business apart and harm you even long after the employee is gone. If you make a similar mistake on the farm, nobody cares, and next year gives you a fresh start.
Is this some kind of joke?

Ever heard of Keynes and his liquidity preference theory?

Ever heard of Wolfgang Stützel and his book about balance mechanics?

It's pretty obvious. The person with the money gets to decide and they are allowed to decide to not decide at all.

Since one person's credit is another person's debit, the credit side determines indebtedness. Positive money balances determine how much debt there is in the economy and since people have a preference for holding money balances, those money balances keep ballooning and correspondingly, indebtedness must go up.
I think it it's a reference to the media landscape, Facebook and OpenAI inclusive.

My sister lives in Chicago and her ICE car also won't start due to the extreme low temperatures. The Canadians solved this problem by having resistive heat elements installed in their engine, I think EVs probably need the same.
People want to choose their sources and follow niche topics that are relevant to them. Until recently, none of the apps on the market could facilitate this. However, I discovered Debriefs AI (https://debriefs.ai), which allows you to create workspaces that track your newsletters and sources. It then builds key insights at the frequency you prefer. I highly recommend it.
In the Finnish civil war in 1918 the White Guard asked captives to say "one" in Finnish ("yksi"). The word starts with the wovel [y]. This is very hard to even learn to pronounce.

When the Russian speaking captives tried and failed to utter the [y] they were shot on the spot. Finnish natives got the luxury to starve often to death in concentration camps.

In WW2 the sibboleth was changed to "höyryjyrä".
