This seems to be pretty wildly left out of the gas->electric push then?

I’m not saying it makes electrification less valuable, but rather the push for electric has very much been sold as “solving” emissions (with some minor debate about the emissions of manufacturing & supply chain)

I guess electrification is phase 1, tire compound science is going to have to be phase 2?

> 2. Tire emissions are more toxic than exhaust [1] and tire wear is dramatically greater on heavier vehicles. This is about air pollution in the city, not climate change globally.

Is there any info on how this impacts the environmental benefits of EVs? Or is the lack of combustion still a net gain?

What about JuiceFS?

I've never used it myself and just learned about it from this thread but it seems to fit the bill.
I might be naive, but I would imagine that companies respond to incentives. So when they choose to upgrade networks in more prosperous neighborhoods, they probably estimate that the willingness to pay for such services is higher, or more sensitive to speed, or something else that means more money. And when a government says build X and we'll pay you Y, they consider alternatives and opportunity cost and do the most economical thing. If the state is unhappy with certain distributions they can try to change the economics, like giving vouchers. But overall the state has a bad history of trying to manipulate markets especially through dictate.

If you look at everything through the lens of race you can say things like Versace is discriminating against certain groups by not placing their stores in their neighborhoods. It's just silly.

Corporations can be stupid and discriminatory or smart and greedy. So I guess you have to choose which you believe it is.
Forget about me for a moment.

Does Javascript really mean something important to you?
You mean you don’t have a distributed merge post microservice that emits post migration events, which are then consumed by a post owner conversion service using your existing event-driven architecture to facilitate seamless data synchronization and user notification processes??? That is not very hacker news of you from the guy who owns hacker news.
Eh device isn't upgradeable or easily repairable. 3/10 for effort. Pretty piss poor given the climate and resources situation the world is in. I expect companies to be more ethical in their production these days. Not just making future e-waste in the form of unrepairable junk.

I notice this article makes the same lies-by-omission that others commonly make:

They compare "land use" and conveniently forget that both solar panels and wind turbines can co-habitate with other uses of the land, and wind turbines are increasingly being placed offshore.

Neither of these is practical for nuclear power, which needs dedicated land, that's generally unusable for as long after the plant shuts as it was operating.
I'd assume it is an office copier that can produce lots of copies of scripts, receipts, invoices, signs for the sets etc. they might need all through the day. And by renting, if it breaks down they get an immediate replacement from the rental company (at zero cost) I guess. So don't need to worry about repair downtime.

You can get car insurance without a car. It's inexpensive and available from most (many?) insurance companies.
But then it's a display and not a Mac.
IME it's quite rare for the database to be the bottleneck. People just don't know how to use it right. It's a pretty simple optimization to gather web requests into batches, and that can easily 10x your database throughput. At my last job we had architects pushing to do the opposite and turn batch files into single requests! Argh!

Also if people are using RDS with EBS, they'll think storage IO is ~500x slower than a modern NVMe disk really is, which will warp their perception of how well an RDBMS should scale. Their gp3 SSD storage comes with 3k IOPS baseline up to 16k[0]. lol. "SSD storage". The volume size "scales" up to 16TB. You can get a new condition P5410 for $420 retail: 8 TB/drive with 100x the performance of a maxed out EBS volume.

Similar misconceptions must exist with application performance. Lambda advertises being able to scale up to "tens of thousands" of concurrent requests[1]. My 6th gen i5 can do that with a few GB of RAM allocated to a single JVM process...

Slightly open-ended doesn't seem to be a problem for me on SO. Where I've really had a problem is the admins not reading the question properly then closing it as already answered elsewhere. I find that screeching like a banshee gets it apologetically reopened. Bit frustrating but a flawed SO is better than no SO at all.
The Rust folks are working on experimental codegen for the CLR https://fractalfir.github.io/generated_html/rustc_codegen_cl... leveraging the existing CIL/CLR support for "unsafe" languages. Once that work is complete, you should be able to rewrite C# code to Rust on a very fine-grained basis (a single function at a time or thereabouts), just like you can when porting C to Rust. Of course, you'll also be able to remove the CIL/CLR dependency altogether if you're left with 100% Rust code, and compile to a binary just like in ordinary C/C++.
Almost a third of that chapter is explaining the shortcomings and caveats of the system.

Then it's a wearable display for the Mac, not a Mac.
There are reasons Oracle sued Google over Android and you just articulated one of them.
A wearable Mac that doesn't run macos though. So you can forget running any productivity software, unless it's already ported to iOS.
Yes. I tried to get car insurance in July in California and barely succeeded — I had to walk in to an AAA branch and they quoted me 2-3 times the Geico price.

Geico will quote a price but forces a 15 days waiting period. Then they’ll send you snail mail and ask you to send in a picture of your car within two days, by snail mail. This is the car you don’t have insurance on, so it’s probably still at the dealer’s or at the seller’s house! I think they’re not allowed to actually refuse to sell insurance but they’ll do everything they can to make it annoying enough that you go away. State Farm and the others are all equally bad.
For compatibility mode, there's a bunch of old theming stuff. If you manage to crash a program in the right way, you can even get a Win2k-style grey-and-blue window to appear in some places, though it's hidden well.

This is the company that put the entire Windows 95 memory manager into later versions of Windows to keep compatibility, there are tons of old code paths still lying in wait for old software to reuse.

You can't use this stuff as your main UI well, it's no longer tested or optimised for that use case.
Reusing a couple objects and packing numbers are all things you'd do in a systems language, too, except you'd have a thousand more issues to deal with.

I didn't recall that angle. And on top of the physical scouring - that'd also add grim corrosion, plus salt buildup, plus (in cold-enough weather) ice buildup.

Yeah - easy to see why the cold war conclusion on this was probably "best if we let the Soviets have a monopoly on this great idea".

borrow checker is more relevant to C references I think.

For pointers you can use Arc or Rc and don't worry about borrow checker.

The reimbursement right that the insurance company has is called subrogation. The basic idea is that whoever was at fault shouldn't be better off because the injured party had insurance; otherwise it would be rational for individuals to not have insurance as long as most other people do have insurance. Subrogation means someone will still sue you into the ground even if the person you hurt was made whole by insurance. There can be many links in the insurance chain before you get to the person who actually caused the problem, and in your case it sounds like UMC was the final link.

At least, this is the stated public policy reason for subrogation. You are right that your health insurer got reimbursed even though they promised to cover your loved ones, and that feels weird.

CaseyNeistat – the thing no one will say about Apple Vision Pro [video]
You may have been able to push for a better settlement if you saw their comps and noticed they were not actually comparable, but at the end of the day, no insurance company will give you more than local market value. If you're underwater on the loan and the value doesn't cover it, that's om you. I never buy GAP; if you need to buy GAP, you should be buying less car.
Time spend managing the tills that you do not either have too much money at one time or have enough money always to give change... Oh and at the end of shift counting the money...

ChatGPT type AI will (and does) happily make spelling and grammar mistakes if it makes the output more believable. It’s a believable-it’s-human output generator, not an actually-true output generator.

Historically, the two have been strongly correlated - but that connection has been weakening more and more over time, as the correlation is dependent on the actual knowledge level and ability to apply critical thinking to judge it.

It’s going to be the world’s best liar if it can be. Even if that means mostly telling the truth most of the time.

On the other hand, how is the AI plugin different from any other web connected plugin / service in the IDE? Some of this has to come down to being realistic about the choice you made when you bought into a proprietary (even if very well polished and highly useful) software. Either you trust that their software isn't arbitrarily sending your private code and information off or you don't. If you don't, you either firewall the app from outgoing connections or you don't use the app at all. Either way I don't see why the addition of a new feature and service suddenly changes how likely you think they are to be sending off your private code.
Is that why Bill's party trick was jumping over chairs? Finally, the pieces are starting to come together?
Frankly: it does sound like your character. I read it once, then more slowly twice, with charity at the forefront of my mind.

What struck me each time is how the things you observe are universally centered around people not behaving the way youd want someone to behave given your estimation of their talent and/or experience.

Ex. "They want to show authority even though just beginners" "they are ungrateful and [this makes them a burden to me]"

The mind-reading is also a big warning sign ("some people think they know all things").

I would either A) reflect on whether my mentorship had devolved into an authoritarian need to rank people and enforce behaviors, as well as demand fealty or B) give more specific examples.

As it stands, the general impression is one of navel-gazing and wanting more credit. To be sure, we are all guilty of that.
Not continuing to buy doesn't make someone worst customer. What about turn out it is a worst product so they need to offer a discount?
A typical modern home printer is connected to WiFi and uses that to reach the cloud where most of the actual implementation for printing lives. So, yes.

My mother's (5+ year old) all-in-one colour printer etc. will cheerfully scan a page and email it to her, because of course although the sensors turning the page into image data are physically in the scanner, all the actual software she's using is "in the cloud" so sending her an email is no harder than turning it into a downloadable ("saved") PDF.
I bet the Vision Pro will get too heavy unless your work days are somewhat short. And that’s beside the battery, which you’ll either need to swap every now and then, or replace with a (wall port) power supply.
Clang leaps to mind. Most of LLVM was developed under Apple's auspices, although the project predates Apple hiring Chris Latner. Swift is also open source, although in practice it's almost always used in a macOS context. Which I think is a shame, it's a great language for writing the sorts of servers for which people usually reach for Go.

That's not a complete list of programs Apple has open-sourced, although clearly open-source software isn't what they're best known for. But clang alone is a worthy contribution which deserves to be recognized.
SUVs in themselves are not class signifiers; particular SUVs are, like the MB G class, etc. people buy SUVs mostly because they’re practical.

They don’t buy them as a signal of class. There are exceptions, of course.
I think at that point, you'd go find a really big black hole to use as a lens instead
The article kind of glosses over the PNG signature. There is actually a lot of thought behind using these exact 8 bytes:

The first byte is 0x89, meant to tell any text editor that this isn't a text file, and to prevent text files from being recognized as PNG. It also detects if you mistakenly transferred the file in some ASCII file mode that clears the top bit.

The next three bytes are PNG in ASCII, meant for humans looking at it in a hex editor.

The next two bytes are a Windows-style line ending (CR LF, or 0D 0A). This breaks the signature if the file mistakenly undergoes Windows->Unix line conversion

The next byte is 0x1A - End of File. This causes DOS tools to stop printing the file.

The last byte is a Unix-style line break, to detect Unix->Windows line conversions

To make the validation process complete, a process can check the integrity of the last chunk (IEND). Not only does it provide a fixed sequence of 12 bytes you can use to check that the file is complete, the fact that its length field is 0 allows you to verify that zero bytes were transferred correctly. Of course you would likely notice anyways because of the chunk checksums, but IEND allows you to fail fast and makes it easier to diagnose the actual issue.

But how long will people comfortably be able to wear it without fatigue? Think thats an issue (for now) until these devices are lighterweight.
Very interesting video. For those who can't watch, he creates a PCB with a RPi Pico and some data pins which can sniff the BitLocker key as it's sent from the TPM chip back to the CPU. I was surprised to see that this was sent in plaintext, so although his board probably will only work for that particular motherboard, the method would be sound for other computers as well.

I'll leave the comments about MS requiring TPM chips for Win11 to others.
What comes to mind are the Office subscription prompts that come up frequently with updates and the OneDrive, basically, ad that is in the settings app.

I think there are others, but I believe I've figured out how to turn most of it off.

Know your state laws. Uninsured often only applies if you can prove they are uninsured. Uninsured people will hit and run, so if you don't catch their plate, you are out of luck. Make sure you have a dash cam. And if you do catch them, good luck getting any compensation from someone with no insurance. You will likely have to sue them just to collect 10 dollars from them for a couple months before they disappear. Best case scenario, they go to jail.
I absolutely can. I've met people whose family see studying computer science as an acceptable alternative to studying to be a doctor or lawyer. Software engineering has gained both in monetary value and in social value.
Your comment brings up an old memory. Lady mentioned once when she was a regional manager at a department store chain. They started having the till go short every so often at one store. Usually it's one person stealing. But looking at the video's they couldn't tell who. And there wasn't a pattern. Then it started happening at two other stores. And then another. The head of security had a hunch, took her to one of the stores after hours and pulled the register apart and they found two hundred dollars inside the machine.

The first store had been the first to get a new model register. And the new model tended to slurp bills out of the till if you closed it too hard.

So this isn't a new software thing. It's a problem with a management culture that shifts blame rather than get to the root of the problem.

> I can imagine that will be somewhat easier in Ethiopia than in many other countries. Ethiopia has one of the lowest per capita number of motor vehicles in the world, in fact out of 195 ranked countries Ethiopia is 189th (tied with Burundi, and just ahead of CAR, the DRC, Somalia and Sudan).

These are the kind of conclusions you can get yourself into just from reading numbers on screens when you've never actually set foot in a place and experienced reality. I drove across Ethiopia in early 2019, from a remote border on Lake Turkana into Addis, down into Djibouti, back into Ethiopia and then north into Sudan. I assure you, there is a HUGE number of ICE vehicles and infrastructure for them. Traffic and parking in Addis Abba is a real thing. Here's some footage of me driving in the city so you can see what it is really like

Could you please give an example of a major politician agitating against white people? To be specific, I do not mean someone pointing out that our system has been built to privlidge white people at the behest of white people, but a politician specifically agitating against white people.

Because I can find endless pages of the head of the Republican party agitating against Mexicans (they're sending rapists), Latinos, Black people (shithole countries), Muslims (literally banned them after musing about how great it would be to kill them with bullets dipped in pig's blood), and Asians (Wuhan flu and China virus, over and over and over).
All great points between your comment and the one that you replied to. What’s really exciting is that every country has electrical infrastructure practitioners: electricians, linemen, etc, so the roll out of charging infra can be done very rapidly with proper training and resourcing.

It also probably helps that China isn’t yet importing EVs to the developed world at scale, so all of those EVs built beyond domestic consumption will be shipped to places like Ethiopia. Mass produced Chinese EVs speeding the death of combustion vehicles in the developing world seems like a net win.
Let’s just take 95% as a true figure … first of all the 5% you don’t get back is a straight up loss. The rewards you get at the end of the month are fine (eg cash back) but you’ve missed out on earning interest on the money you “get back”
It seems like the industry has some pretty strong incentives to standardize on the lowest possible values in those tables.

Further, what does “worth” mean if you can’t take the amount of money you were given and easily purchase a car of the same make, model, year, and condition?
