I specifically chose Amsterdam for that reason actually, it is probably the best place in Europe to start and run a business and it still sucks compared to the US.

Americans can actually move to the Netherlands easily because of special arrangements for starting businesses, but you won’t be surprised to find out most aren’t taking them up on that offer.
Tesla Gigafactory targeted in German arson attack
Yes, the regulation had loop-holes and the EU underestimated the creativity of companies to try to use those loop-holes. The most annoying thing were the dark patterns used - default being "allow all cookies", and then making sure that rejecting cookies took you spending 10 minutes in sub-menus. That loop-hole has now been closed.

The correct way to get rid of cookie banners is businesses using cookies in a responsible fashion, and sooner or later this is going to happen.

Also, your framing misses one important point: If I have the choice between mildly frustrating cookie banners that raise awareness for the situation and simply having all your data sent to 500 advertising "partners" the moment you enter a website, like it is in the US, I choose the mildly frustrating cookie banners.

Freedom does come at a cost.

Do not blame regulators for evil forces trying to circumvent those regulations.

It's what the article you are commenting on is all about. Go (re-)read it.
I still don't get the impetus or desire to make NNs work better for tabular data. Regression works pretty well and is easy to interpret/diagnose/work with. GBMs work really well (given a few considerations) and is trickier to work with but nothing crazy. When I see all the fancy hijinks people get up to when applying NNs to audio/text/pictures I think it's really cool but also not something I'd want to have to do if I didn't absolutely need to when working with data out of a relational db. And anyways, how much of a benefit could it actually bring? GBMs are already capable of fitting and dramatically overfitting most datasets.
In my exp if they're dwelling on one thing, they fell into it. Engineering a situation implies they worked out how to control things in their environment.

Not all environments are conducive to musterable control but when it lines up stuff can happen.
We read their ToS. Our lawyers read their ToS. It has a vague “we can kick you off if we choose to” part, but removing service with no recourse was not ok. So we told them we would sue them if they didn’t give us access to shred sensitive data and they relented.
Cookie banners are largely a form of malicious compliance.

Neither of those "examples" support the idea that the EU will "back off", especially since pummeling Big Tech is pretty much the only thing these days that has widespread bipartisan support.

Your first link is just about congresspeople wanting the laws to be applied fairly. Of course, though, it is (the article also mentions that ByteDance is included), it's just that most big tech companies are from the US. The second article is just about Ted Cruz screeching "collusion!!" because some people in US government are meeting with their counterparts in the EU. That troll's gonna troll, it's a day ending in y.

This further reinforces my point above about the debate in the US being done at extremities. Alabama (I think) just had their abortion ban so extreme (defining life at conception) that they accidentally outlawed In-vitro Fertilization!

I can’t believe that Tesla still ships cars without a center-press horn button.

I own a Model S Plaid, and the horn button’s location on the yoke can generally only be reached by the driver’s right hand. Even more dangerous, its position in space changes dramatically any time you are in the middle of a turn. The horn button is not easy to press in an emergency.

Same story with the turn signals.

If you are in the middle of a turn and you have rotated the yoke 180-degrees, your turn signal buttons are now upside-down, and on the other side of the yoke. I have owned my car for a year and a half, and there are still times when I have to look at the yoke mid-turn to figure out which turn signal button is which.

So stupid.
Yep. My 2011 Mazda3 is great but getting on in age and we'd like to switch to an EV. Sadly Mazda's not in the running at all :( Probably will get either the Ioniq 5 or Kia EV6, whichever has fewer touch screen controls.

i've rented electric cars for the last three years and own a Model 3. massive difference.

yes, the tesla doesn't have buttons. however, basically every common operation you'll do can be done in five actions or less.

if i want to navigate somewhere with our tesla, i simply tap the navigation search bar, enter the destination like I would on Google Maps, select and drive. Or i can share the destination with the Tesla app from Google or Apple Maps.

It's at least four taps with CarPlay to do this...and you're hoping that it doesn't crash mid-drive (like it's done to me so many times before). Google Automotive actually does a really great job here, but that's only shipped with select cars.

i can swipe left or right on the cabin temp to adjust upwards or downwards. many cars have dedicated controls for them, but some, like the Kia EV6, use that strip for multiple uses, so you think you're changing cabin temp, but you're actually adjusting sound volume.

ADAS (Lane Keep Assist, Autosteer, adaptive cruise, etc) is where the Tesla experience shines most brightly. On EVERY OTHER CAR, configuring ADAS involves navigating a labyrinthine maze of menus, guessing what a bunch of acronyms mean (LKA, HDA, VCC, etc. Toyotas are the worst at this), and, when it's on, figuring out if it's actually on (autosteer is the worst about this) and hoping you'll develop muscle memory in changing speed and stuff from the steering wheel.

On Teslas, you single- or double-tap the gear stalk or press a button on the steering wheel. To configure, tap the car, tap "Autopilot," go nuts. The only acronym in this menu is FSD, and it's spelled out (full self-driving). the small speed indicator turns blue if traffic-aware cruise control is on; the wheel on the display turns blue if autosteer is on; and the display shows you its view of the world at all times.
It would be nice to see folks who take such a rigorous stance on the First and Second Amendments (not in this article, but in author’s book _Battlefield America_) adopt similarly rigorous and detailed readings of the other twenty-five.

Most of the Hetzner DdoS come from gaming fyi. They’re pretty good at handling them but we’d get paged every few months due to this.

I was actually thinking about RN, the French leading far right party. Their main point relates to security, immigration and general nationalism. But when it comes to the economy, they tend to support welfare (except for immigrants of course...), support local farmers, and nationalize highways (which are private in France).

But yes, they promise what people who may vote for them want, and it turns out, on the economic side, it is slightly leaning left. The general sentiment may be different in Germany.

Honestly $400M in funding with only a preference of $559M seems pretty reasonable as far as the VC world goes.

Especially when the actual exit was about half that return.

No, it's because nobody was talking about Jordan Peterson. There are other well credentialed scientists who were censored, read the sibling-parent comment. Bringing him up as a scapegoat and then using that to mewl about how people are babies for being concerned about disenfranchisement of opinions is bad faith at best, a straw man argument, and inflammatory.
China can regulate more effectively than the EU. They have actual concentration camps. Look at Jack Ma. The EU has cookie banners. That’s not regulation, it’s a speed bump.
Consider that the US cannot manufacture things because our environmental and labor regulations are so strict as to make it impossible. The idea that America doesn’t have regulations is not accurate. We have regulated the regulation, so it appears less regulatory but it is not.

It's very important to note that this is from 2022. I'm not saying it's not true today but neural models have gotten much better in 2 years.

Yes! The pickle is that the system doesn't know when the link is sent and if it was sent via email/sms/..., only when it's created. Something that helps is a deny list of user agents on the server for obvious things (like when iOS messages previews the URL) that have kept known user agents over many years. The problem with spam filters is that they don't want you to know they are spam filters so the user agents are hard to pin down definitively.

Overall, that's why it gives the user 3 notifications. Hopefully, most folks will know something's off if they get a read seconds after emailing someone.
I'm not talking about a single car, I'm talking about several different makes and models over the last couple decades.

It's as if everybody just forgot that the world was full of propaganda against electric cars (hey, hydrogen is the future!), regulation was heavily stopping any car startup, and the catch-22 problem of not being able to charge because nobody had electric cars existed.

Nobody was making a car startup on that scene.

It's been what, a decade and half? It's amazing how people forget.

This is somewhere the reality distortion field hits hard. I have even heard "we are about to raise at an $X valuation, we'll offer you options at that price." When you sit them down and explain that those investors are getting preferred shares, which have some measure of protection against bankruptcy, and that the common stock is not worth nearly that much without the insurance, it (in my experience) enrages startup people. Many of them won't show their cap table or even discuss their past fundraising terms.

This appears to be an "alternative fact", a type of fact that is popular in the USA.

It's true that EU countries have historically underspent on defence. But as far as I can see, US supplies of materiel amount to be some MANPADs, some handheld anti-tank missiles, and some Patriot batteries. The (14?) promised Abrams tanks don't seem to have arrived yet; nor have the promised F-16s.

Cars was a better choice than trains on both environmental grounds and business grounds.

First, environment.

• Trains are somewhere from 1/2 to 1/4 the CO2 emissions per passenger over a given distance than are cars.

• For freight are nearly an order of magnitude less per ton over a given distance than trucks.

Second, business.

• Nobody buys sports trains.

Trains are expensive to build and expensive to buy. Almost nobody other than big companies and governments buys trains, and they buy them to do a job. Those buyers tend to be conservative buyers when it comes to technology. They want their new trains to be a lot like their old trains, with just incremental improvements.

With cars you can build a sports car, and people will put up with all kinds of problems as long as you nail the performance (acceleration, top speed, handling). Sports cars are playthings, not work things.

With a sports car you can try very different things and then take what works and use it to develop cars for the more widespread car market.

Sometimes, yes, it is. Real cheese is in a way a creation of a new food item as one raw ingredient (milk) is used by microorganisms to create another food product. Skimmed milk though can be considered a processed food item as it is a "waste" by-product of extracting cream from it. Cooking is also "processing" raw ingredients. But we know that "processing" by cooking raw ingredients to prepare dishes is beneficial for us despite the slight loss of nutrition (it allows our body to digest food more easily, and thus absorb nutritions better). We also know over-cooking (burning) food makes them carcinogenic. Factory "processing" of food essentially tends to strip off nutrition from food, in favour of taste (and sometimes digestibility). Ultra processed food tends to do this to an extreme. (For example, fruit juice seem more tastier because when we eat fruit the fibres slow down the release of sugar to our body. Fruit juice essentially strips of this fibre allowing our body to absorb sugar faster.)
