Why does anything fun end up as a compact keyboard with no numeric pad and cramped navigation keys?

And tbh... people who would be interested in this have multiple monitors, or one very large monitor. There should be plenty of space in front of it for a full size keyboard.
Oh, I see from the writeup now that the power consumption is quite high due to the heater. The main PCB is just pulling out PoE standard power probably because that just makes sense from BOM POV. But the input power to the dish itself needs to support the heater as well.

I just tested in Excel and Google Sheets and our behavior matches them here, unless I am misunderstanding the repro steps.

For me, A3 becomes =SUM(A1:A2)+A1+A2 and remains 4 as it should be.

The action I am taking:

A0=1
A1=1
A2=SUM(A0:A1)+A0+A1 (evaluates to 4)

Right click A0 and click "insert row above"

Now I have:

A0=empty
A1=1
A2=1
A3=SUM(A1:A2)+A1+A2 (evaluates to 4)

Thank you for trying to find edge cases! I have put literally hundreds of hours into stuff like this. Let me know if you have different repro steps.
Why would you need such a lot of work done? A normal domestic 230 V 10 A supply is enough to add 10 km of range per hour so if you plug it in at 20:00 and unplug at 06:00 you have added 100 km. That's far more than the average daily distance for the vast majority of users.

You can get perfectly useable EVs for under half that in Europe. Are they not available in the US?

Yes - on any day, subtracting a year might mean subtracting the average length of a year (which is a bit more than 365 days), or wanting the same day and month number in the previous calendar year, or wanting the same semantic difference ("last Monday of the month in January"), to name a few possible meanings.

> It takes 1 minute more to fill a bag or bottle. But it prevents a heck of a lot of packaging. And I can take precisely the quantity I want, in the container that I want.

1 minute for each product, vs like 1 second for each product. I think it's a similar efficiency loss as containerized vs break bulk shipping.
Indeed. In addition to the UI issues, there's no way this product can be "the fastest spreadsheet" when it's browser-based. By definition it runs at least ten times slower than native apps will.
I mean, sure, but I (and probably most people) only have a few extensions that actually matter regardless of the browser.

In my mind, "move in a straight line due east" can be interpreted as "for as long as you are moving, your movement should be due east". In that case, your latitude will never change. In the northern hemisphere, you will constantly be making a leftward adjustment to maintain a due east heading.
> For example, do you think an insurance agency would want an LLM to decide, on it's own, claim approvals? Can you imagine the headache for the insurance agency if the LLM approves the wrong claims or denies the wrong claims?

You say this, but I sometimes worry that these issues are hand-waved away by decision-makers with, "oh we'll just have another LLM doing frontline claim support to verify these issues." It's the whole XML/violence thing, where the solution to XML-induced pain often ends up being more XML.
Can anyone help answer or point in the direction of where to learn more about what/why humans begin to mimic and adopt other characteristics or full words of other languages? The reason I ask is I inherited/learned from my Mom this thing where within a couple of hours of being around another language or accent will unconsciously start adopting parts of it to a noticeably embarrassing degree. I'm at the point now where I am aware enough about this trait that I can tolerate myself but I have always been left wondering why some people seem to change how they speak faster and more drastically than others. My uneducated guess the answer I seek is somewhere to be found in the studies of human evolutionary biology and childhood development.

Nvidia is lucky though, a lot of big companies will want their GPTs in-house to ensure their secrets won't be used to train someone else's GPT, and that means buying a lot of hardware (could be on a cloud data center too, but, same result for Nvidia)

I've been thinking a lot about building onboarding experiences, and was reminded of this presentation that I read about 10 years ago.

The gist, that the same principles that make a video game where you save a princess fun to learn (e.g. super mario bros) can be applied to building products, seems so obviously true - yet difficult to put into practice.

The most influential part of this presentation is this quote:

When you build applications that let users be smart, they love you for it. The secret to good game design is simple. Set up situations where there is a problem that must be solved and let the user solve it. Give them subtle clue, but don’t take away that ‘aha’ moment.

Scary part: you have to believe the user is smart.

The OP's point about renewables fast fluctuations driving coal broke applies twice as much to nuclear. The problem coal has is it takes a few hours to ramp down, and during that time the electricity price is often negative. With nuclear, it isn't 1 or 2 hours, it takes 1/2 a day to ramp down. Worse, while a major cost of running coal generation (digging up the coal) does eventually ramp down, with nuclear the major cost is interest payments. They never stop, so they are paying interest while getting a negative price for the power they are generating (at the most expensive price per kWh of all generation methods).

It's all over bar the shouting for nuclear at this point. But granted, the shouting level seems to be going up not down. You would think NuScale going broke would damper the enthusiasm but no, Dutton's response to that seems to be to shout louder.

As for the OP claim Australia needs coal - South Australia has no coal. It's one of the few places in Australia that isn't build on coal seams. Consequently South Australia is now at 70% renewables, higher than any other OECD place on the planet with a substantial population (including other Australia states). That's 70% average over a year, not peak. Without coal. So much for "needing it".
In NACS the DC and AC pins are the same pins. The car only connects the charge port pins to either the AC/DC charger or to the DC battery after it communicates with the charger and tells the charger what voltage / amps it wants.

I urge you to try and re-read the Foundation series as an Asimov fan. The books are... barely passable. With the exception of the first one.

People claiming that series is bad haven't read the books in a long times.

There are no characters. There are talking heads that speak at each other. Women are non-existent. Every single person is a knight without fear or reproach. Huge galaxy-spanning powers come and go in lieu of interesting ideas (first the Mule and the R. Daneel).

The TV series (at least season 1, haven't seen season 2) is the best that could happen to the books IMO.

Dealing with an AI will be much better than dealing with a civil servant, in most cases. There is a certain kind of person who becomes a civil servant and many of them will not only have a hostile attitude, but also make it their life's mission to try to do as much damage as possible in the pettiest ways possible to the people they "serve". Especially if you're of a sex, ethnicity or age group that they hate. Sometimes the same as theirs.

Letting citizens deal with their bureaucratic errands with an online form or portal instead of with a civil servant in their office has been an enormous benefit, in the places that offer this. An AI will fuck things up, being an AI, but it will not necessarily treat people with a hostile attitude and lie to clients to spite them. Unless it's programmed by civil servants, that is.
Depends if you see Tesla cars as the best EVs or not, especially if the Supercharger network is no longer exclusive.

I don’t, and I know a lot of other people think likewise. I see this becoming a wider phenomenon as the competition continues to grow. Hence, what I referred to as the “time bomb”.

I say this as someone with a huge number of TSLA shares, albeit someone that wants to dump them sooner rather than later because of reasons like this.

Just a note on legacy tests: Step 0.5: understand the tests. They need to be examined to see if they've rotted or not. Tests passing/failing doesn't really mean code under test works or not. The tests might have been abandoned under previous management and don't accurately reflect how the code is _supposed_ to be working.

The right answer depends on the future. I've worked on C++ code where the replacement was already in the market but we had to do a couple more releases of the old code. Sometimes it is adding the same feature to both versions. There is a big difference in how you treat code that you know the last release is coming soon and code where you expect to maintain and add features for a few more decades.

Holding Stationæry
I certainly did. There is a batch process to cull old records. It checks for customers who do not have a date of death recorded but are > 130 years old, as it assumes that we weren't informed of their death.

It takes 130 years from the current date and uses that in an SQL statement to compares it to the date of birth. DB2 doesn't like 1894-02-29.

Apparently it happens every 4 years, but no-one can be bothered to fix it.
Building internal Figma plugins for design team
So for a specific time period, it was considered Number 2:

> The EV doubled US registrations in January-April 2023

But it lost ground to end up at Number 5 for all of 2023.

You can't really say it "is" the second best selling vehicle, though you can say it briefly "was."

It may be the way Tesla reports their sales. It looks like they were at 127k for Q1, while the Chevrolet Silverado sold 126k in that time period.

But over the course of 2023, the Silverado sold 543k, while the Model Y sold 386k. Not sure when the big slowdown was for the Model Y.

I can’t argue with your personal feelings. My point that the hardware is underpowered compared to MS\Sony is an agreement that they aren’t trying to compete with them directly, instead making a product that has meaningful differences in form factor/function rather than technical. It is a part of how they execute that strategy.

The WiiU doesn’t reflect that trend. It was sold at a loss. It was initially sold as a machine that would have strong third-party support, unlike the Wii. Ubisoft and EA were presented front-and-center as supporting it. That only lasted for a year because the WiiU was able to compete with 360/PS3 on power, but the investment was no longer worth it for third parties to do multi-platform releases once new consoles were out. Nintendo did incorporate Xbox One-like TV control mechanisms into the WiiU.

Ultimately the issue of whether or not it was a failure is again something you can take a personal feeling about but statements made by Nintendos leadership in their official capacity are hardly shy about how much it did not meet their own expectations in the marketplace. They wanted to sell at least as many units as the Wii and sold more like 1/8th as many units.

I agree Nintendo has done well by not competing to be the third horse in a two horse race. I don’t agree that the Wii U reflected a good execution of that strategy.
Then I guess the answer might include ADB-S and other information-sharing channels. Perhaps only accepting incoming ballistic transports from predefined friendly launch sites. Perhaps only accepting manned ballistic transports.

Ballistic vehicles do not have much cross-range capability, so knowing both where they came from and where they are going is easier than with aircraft. But of course real-time human-seeming communication could be faked with good AI, and even if that were not an option I'm sure some kamakazi pilots would volunteer if necessary. Anything could be faked, but the barriers are not unsubstantial.

And, of course, MAD remains a deterrent.
